Most notably, there's a new combat medic player class, which lets players treat team members in the field and help them regain some level of combat effectiveness. To qualify to play the combat medic on official servers, it's necessary to pass four separate training classes that are designed to teach some real-world first-aid knowledge. The game's new damage model complements this new class, as bullets now cause blood loss, simulated as damage over time that can be stopped only by combat medics. Other features in the update include a redesigned interface, the integration of Punkbusters anti-cheating software, new character models, and new animations."</i></ul><br><i>(Thanks, Boris!)</i> </ul> America's Army 1.9 updated America's Army
