MAG is the new hottness. This is what Battlefield should have been. EA are shit and slowly ruining DICE..

 

One's a £10 download the other is likely to be a full priced product at least...that alone makes for very different offerings. I don't think EA are anywhere near as a bad a company as they used to be. Activision are the new "old EA", but I can see why people still hate EA.

Slowly ruining Dice? - is there a timescale to how they are ruining them?

 

Of course thats your opinion and your entitled to it but without any actual factual content your words mean nothing.

 

Please explain in a bit more in depth - it might actually be interesting reading.

Mag is a bag of shit. At first I stated this, then I played it more and gradually enjoyed it more. Now I just think it's repetitive and boring. Spawn and other glitch issues aside, this is still pretty poor.

 

When I played for the first time I didn't mind that it was slightly generic but now I find that the monotony is the game-killer. Nonchelantly picking people off seems pointless. You feel as meaningful as a spec of shit on a bit of toilet paper. I could be a squad leader but then I don't want some northerner telling me how to do my job just because it's my first attempt and I don't have a clue what to do.

 

For all I know there aren't 256 players on the map. You can't go anywhere you want so it's irrelevant.

Something that I've thought as well and if all 256 players did somehow end up together it would be absolute carnage...

I am not surprised. Its a team game. Aimlessly wandering around killing people is pointless in this game. MAG would be at the opposite end where teamwork and tactics are concerned. Especially as humans create the objectives. So for commanding positions strategy is also important.

 

I dont think 256 players have been tested since the new public beta. Its quite different to acquisition though. More easier for noobs as objectives are fixed.

And generally wouldn't work. Dying constantly. When there's so many people out there to kill you then what hope do you have? Impossible to check your six every 5 seconds and there's too many to mow down with a minigun, then there's reloading...

 

As i said its not a deathmatch game(there is a mode though). You have to fulfil objectives. There should be a flashing symbol on your screen as well as audio commands. Stuff like repair gate to prevent APC from getting through or blowing up enemy's anti air, bridge etc to stop their forward spawn points and strikes. Killing around these net you loads of points and it spreads out the action as its also a game of resources and strategy.

 

If you like storming the enemy then you need to level up in those areas for resistance, health, radar, power guns, commando traits etc. Against 10 people you are unlikely to win most times but that doesnt means its impossible.

 

Personally i added basic stuff like running, accuracy, gadgets, fast repair, fast plant charges etc. You need this and you need to specialise. Pre level 10 its hard going against high levels.

 

I would love to talk tactics but that will be long. generally try not to keep getting gunned down on pointless fire fights. Keep yourself alive as each soldier is a resource and the more interesting stuff is at objectives anyway. My favourite was 2 weeks ago on a 256 player map which plays like Battlefield conquest but with pairs and i was fighting in buildings as well.

 

anyhoo i'll join on bf 1943 when i have time and cod when that comes too.

I'm level 18 and have the sprint and gun swap speed along with almost every assault upgrade, just want that grenade launcher. Obviously objectives are key but once your bunker is bombed you're fucked. You can't stop a swarm of opponents from planting that bomb and once it's blown, massive trekking occurs.

Right here are a few ideas I had knocking about...

 

Monday

Tuesday

Wednesday War never been so much fun

ThursdayWar never been so much fun

Friday

Saturday Casual Chillaxing

Sunday They Think It's Over....it is now...

 

and then War never been so much fun*** for the wealth of FPS' out there so the nights where people are mostly available should be with this...put it in at wednesday and thursday for now but can change. Also think a racer night would be cool?

 

They Think It's Over....it is now... is intended as a sports night to round off the weekends sport with some of the virtual variety.

 

*** in honour of this great theme tune from a cracking game;

FIFA night. If someone wants to set up a League, we can have a proper incentive to play. I will no doubt suck and be bottom of course. Playing as Sheffield Wednesday will do that.

 

 

Uncharted. beta. add it.

 

The full game is out in 2 weeks, maybe add that?
