An update for the U.S. Army developed military shooter America's Army 3 has been released and is now available on Steam.

The patch brings a host of improvements and tweaks along with a few fixes to the free FPS.

The full notes:

America's Army 3

    * Improved console help
    * Added Clan support. Add clan tag in Account Settings. You must change information while in single player mode for now.
    * Admin VOIP Improvements
    * New "version" console command to see the current version
    * Server browser performance improvements
    * Fixes joining password protected servers so it no longer selects the server underneath the mouse cursor when clicking on the "Join" button in the password entry dialog.
    * Fix for settings menu improperly closing when ESC pressed and leaving the player stuck with no UI and limited control
    * Mission generation optimizations
    * Fixed issue with logging into game servers that sometimes used another player's soldier profile.
    * New TS3 SDK integrated
    * Improves how server manages authentication objects
    * Fixes issue with players being added to the scoring system not having all of their scoring data written.
    * Fixes issue where players not logged into MBS were being logged out if they left the server prior to authenticating
    * M320 grenade attaching issue resolved.
    * Dedicated server title bar now shows mission and player details
    * Fixes the "Waiting for other players" UI so it now appears again.
    * Removes some server logging
    * Increased communications handling to support when all players use heavy load outs. This may correct many instances where players didn't spawn correctly or get the correct load out.
    * Fixes the M320 getting an extra round of ammo
    * Fixes the Account Settings password changing not working properly
    * Fixes the IRC link not working
    * Fixes the displayed mission type (assault/defense/etc.) shown in the battle planner so it displays properly after side-swapping
