Earlier today I recieved an email from one of the AGP's own, Ed "Pheonix" DeGorter.

"The America’s Army development team has released some screenshots of their upcoming next-generation release AA3. The images are unique in that they compare similar images from the current game and the highly anticipated new version, AA3," the email stated.

GotFrag is taking a look at the images and comparing them to the original 2.x.x version of Pipeline. From these images, you will clearly see a dramatic improvement in the graphic and lighting in 3.0's Pipeline. 3.0's Pipeline screenshots will be featured on the left, and the current version of Pipeline will be on the right.

GotFrag will also get comments from some notable figures in the AA competitive scene, present and past.

The compared screenshots



This is a view from the Assault Team’s starting or spawn position. Straight ahead is the Oil Refining Facility’s main entrance.



Here a stairway leads down to the North entrance and overlooks the Secondary Valve room, a key strategic location within Pipeline.



A favorite position for Advanced Marksmen (snipers) are the exterior vents which lead from the Main Control Room to a rooftop above the facilities main entrance.



The core of Pipeline is the Main Control room. It is imperative that the defending team protect this room at all costs. An enemy player can win the engagement by shutting down all critical valves from this computer terminal.



The Southern perimeter of the facility will provide some protection as the Assault team moves towards the West entrance and the Exterior Valve room.



An interior view of the corridor leading from the North entrance to the Secondary Valve room. This is a favorite ambush site for the defending team.
