Complete training missions drawn from the SFAS process at Fort Bragg. Successfully complete SFAS and advance to Special Forces Qualification Course (Q-Course) missions to explore new Special Forces roles.
Intense Special Forces action —
Experience multiplayer missions in simulated combat environments. Take part in missions that span the capabilities of a Special Forces detachment, including unconventional warfare, direct action, surveillance and reconnaissance and Combat Search and Rescue.
Detailed Special Forces equipment and military hardware — Building on the equipment available in America’s Army: Operations, America’s Army: Special Forces adds the M4 Carbine featuring the Picatinny rail mod system for attaching laser-aiming devices and sighting systems; the MP5SD6 Remington 870 shotgun for forced entry; the AT4, a shoulder-fired anti-tank rocket and the BDM, a shoulder-fired bunker demolition munition.
Accurate Soldier behavior —
Players are bound by the laws of land warfare, Army values (honor, duty and integrity) and realistic rules of engagement as they navigate challenges in teamwork-based multiplayer force vs. force operations. Mission accomplishment standings are evaluated based on team effort and adherence to a set of values and norms of conduct.

To get on as a trooper you need to:
complete the assault course (20 mins)
learn to load, fire and unjam the M16 (10 mins)
Throw the 3 different types of grenade (10 mins)
Fire the M203 grenade launcher (10 mins)
To qualify as a sniper, just pass the M16 firing range test with a score of 36 or more. Then pass the range tests for both sniper rifles. It took me forever, but I guess the skilled (or dedicated) could do the whole lot first time in 15 mins.
To qualify as a medic, just pay attention to the lectures, scribble down some notes, and you'll sail through it in 20 mins. Healing in battle earns honour points as well as saving teammates.
To qualify for the Special Forces you need to:
listen to a really boring introduction from 6 guys (30 mins)
watch a slide show on Opfor and Friendly vehicles and then pass a test (20 mins to a month)
complete an assault course (30 mins to a month)
The training reflects the fact that AA is paid for by the American Army and is a recruiting aid to help young soldiers understand what is expected of them before they sign up. There's a fearful amount of guff about the Army if you take the trouble to read the introductions to each training session. I suspect most people don't bother.
A great game - enjoy it for what it is: a free, high quality team based FPS.

Some players I have bumped into over the last few days in our Wireplay Server have asked how many points do they need before their Honour goes up. First of all "NO POINTS" will be awarded in our current server of 62.105.80.52 as it is not an Official Server. I have written below a chart showing you what points are now required to advance to the next level.
Experience points needed for next honor level.
01-10: 500
11-20: 1,000
21-30: 2,500
31-40: 4,000
41-50: 6,000
51-60: 9,000
61-70: 13,000
71-80: 23,000
81-90: 43,000
91-99: 83,000
Hope this has helped.
