This is all GREAT news. Very glad to have that True Soldiers mode. I hope the mission based game type is as good as in ROAS with actual objectives.
This with what Randy said in the other thread is VERY positive about this game:

1) In AA:TS there are no reticule dots or aim assistance unless your weapon has a scope and you have it raised up to focus in on your target. All other guns have an Iron Sight view that players will need to use since firing from the hip will be pretty inaccurate.
2) AA:TS has set Squads and Fire-Teams. Even average players that operate as a team will outperform great players that are on a team with less cohesion. Squad and Fire-Team Leader will play a big role in the games.
3) Sprinting will in fact be limited by Physical Training.
4) AA:TS provides a more realistic experience using the “True Soldiers” server option. With True Soldiers turned on the following will happen. --* Removes IFF/Names ----o Friendly Names still appear but only at close range --* Removes Focus Dots above enemy heads ----o Target acquisition becomes a much larger factor. --* Removes Kill Messages in upper left (No kill confirmation) ----o Players should now confirm their kills since it’s a valid strategy to hit the dirt and play dead if you are receiving heavy fire. --* Removes Radar ----o Leaves only the compass function onscreen --* Removes Objective Markers unless the “Show Objective Indicators” option is On ----o Less Intel provided to the Soldiers on the ground, you must hunt down the Objectives yourself and send out Fire-Teams to recon.
5) Iron Sights/Scope is on the Left Trigger, Right Trigger fires.
6) There are Five skills to invest in using the Soldier Development System. They are as follows. * Marksmanship * Physical Training * Fortitude * Medic * Valor

this game is great. I just hope the money is being invested in fixing glitches that hindered the first game and I hope they patch any problems that arise. The glitchers took over the first game and had a heyday thus ruining the game. I'm ok with most people getting Halo or COD4 instead of this game because this AA game caters to a more mature, intellectual player.
Sweet cant wait and as Night said im sold well me to. Also do you think you could use the no hud mode in Coop campaign? Any ways this game really surprised me with this and I cant wait for it now.

"Ubisoft and Redstorm have reserved the names of real units for soldiers actually serving with those units, so if you happen to jump on and see a player from the 101st Airborne or the 1st Armored clans, you'll know you're actually playing with a real soldier from that unit."
Thats not only a good idea but is really cool as well.
I remember seeing (at IGN I guess) that you are rewarded for respecting life and the Rules of Enguagment, this leads me to believe that AI enemies will surrender? I would also like to know if the weapons are going to *Jam* randomly because the ones in RoaS didnt and that really a key factor in Combat-Small Arms.

How will that work?
