The US Army has been building a training game for its soldiers to play, and the company behind the project, called RealTime Immersive, Inc., has just <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&amp;v=EXE0nGU0uCo#!">released two trailers </a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ob7BVTp6IxA&amp;feature=player_embedded">showing off the game's graphics</a>, powered by CryEngine 3. If it looks good, it's because the powers that be have spent $57 million on the project. For that price, there better be dedicated servers <em>and</em> LAN support.<br />
<br />
Keep in mind this is just a tease -- this game is meant for internal training by the Army, and so it isn't something the public will get to play in any <em>major</em> way. Besides, can the Army hire a group of racist teenagers to yell at soldiers as they perform the in-game training operations?<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2011/12/23/us-army-game-developers-shows-off-cryengine-3-powered-environmen/">US Army game developers show off CryEngine 3-powered environments</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Fri, 23 Dec 2011 09:30:00 EST.
