[QUOTE=Stickmna;19492018]So can anyone go ito any specifics as to why they think this game was bad?
I was actually considering buying a PS3 for this game and Heavy Rain.[/QUOTE]
Buy a PS3, but not for this game. Instead, for Metal Gear Solid 4, Killzone 2, God of War 3, Uncharted 2 etc...
MAG is pretty much shit. I would explain but I think enough people have already done that. Even IGN editors are saying it's bad and the game isn't out for 3 more weeks.

[QUOTE=Stickmna;19494943]Been watching a long gameplay vid of a Valor (I think) vs Raven match. 256 player
It's reminding me alot of war rock, and a number of other crappy korean FPSs.
The guy playing also got lost a few times, and in general seemed to fumble with the controls.

Getting lost on the bigger maps is very easy if your squad breaks up on the way to the action and the controls can be very clunky at the best of times. Sometimes the autoaim will engage as it should, other times it skips right over. But that may be fixed in this beta.
Wow, it looks pretty cool from that gameplay video. But how can you go that entire match without figuring out which button is ironsights.
The reload animation looked a bit weird though.

Are there any player controlled helicopters/other vehicles?

IGN's a joke.
IGN: hurp MW2 is bettar
That's the impression I got at least.
MAG is good because it isn't another retarded "LOL EVERY MAN FOR THEMSELVES, GET AS MANY KILLS AS POSSIBLE".
It is a game about teamwork.
I wish this game was for the PC, this type of game sounds like something that would be better on it
This game makes me miss planetside. I never got to play it long, but when I did it was fun.
MGO is a lot more fun than this.

A shooter that actually encourages teamwork properly is a rare thing indeed.

This doesn't really encourage teamwork. You're exaggerating.
Yes, it does.
If you lone wolf it, you die 9 times out of 10.
Or you are lone wolfing to help the rest of the squad out like flanking an enemy position.

With that logic, MW2 encourages teamwork.
No, it doesn't because MW2 is about getting kills, MAG is about winning the war.

Just read it, it has a buttload of innaccuracies.
The quote that annoyed me most however was
[I]"why can't I stop reloading to do a quick knife attack? I look like an idiot running up on a guy, starting a reload, and having to dance around while I finish that animation so that I can have the ability to stab again."
[/I]
I have no sympathy for this man if he wants to play like a tool and then complain about it.
The editor talking about team kills, whilst that it is true that the friendly fire allows you to teamkill, there is a kick system in place and the guy did say that it's probably just people having a hard time finding the option. I keep having to tell people how to do it when I play online and some guy is deciding to be a tool.
[B]edit[/B]: Also I don't understand how people can say the controls are unresponsive, they are about as goddamned precise as you could ask for.
If by unresponsive you mean that you can't turn around fast enough and you can't track people, [I]theres a sensitivity option in the ingame and out of game menu you can play around with.[/I] I find around 45 is a good bet, don't want it too high else it makes mid-long range shots harder.
[B]edit 2:[/B] Also (whilst I didn't at first I now do) I like the new weapon switching mode. It's a bit odd to start off with but it does make sense.
Plus making grenades into a weapon of their own works for game balence sake. It makes you vunerable whilst you throw them rather than just encouraging [I]every[/I] player to always spam all of their grenades away every life like they would if it was just a one button affair.
The game is boring don't waste your money
Whoo, i join my first server ever, and guess what happens.
Some guy on my team stabs me multiple times until i die.
I made this list to keep track of my skill points in the earlier closed beta.
I was on RAVEN so I assume this is strictly RAVEN stuff, I have no clue if SVER or VALOR have the same skill slots but heres my list.
[b]Recommended Side Skills[/b]
2 Med Kit
2 Resuscitation
2 Claymore
2 Tank mine
3 Poison Gas
Side Skills = 11
[b]MG Class (Do not buy the MG for 5 skill points, its stats are worse than the first MG)[/b]
1 MG reload
2 MG Reflex
2 MG foregrip
3 MG stability
MG class = 8
[b]AR Class (buy the final rifle, not the second one)[/b]
2 AR Reflex
2 AR foregrip
2 AR biepod
2 AR steady aim
5 AR gun
AR class = 13
[b]Sniper Rifle Class (skip the second rifle for the 50.Cal)[/b]
2 SR foregrip
2 SR biepod
2 SR steady aim
5 SR gun (50.cal)
SR class = 11
[b]Side Skills that were helpful to me...[/b]
1 Improved Shot Detection
1 Improved Sprint Recovery
2 Stealth
4 Explosive Damage -
5 Health +
Side Skills = 13
[b]ONLY CHOOSE ONE WEAPON CLASS[/b]
Again that's my Raven loadout, and I had a hell of alot of fun with the MG fully upgraded.
Don't buy the Bi-Pod if your going to also get the skill that decreases wobble, the wobble is eliminated once you go prone, therefor, no need for a Bi-Pod to slow you down and take up an attachment slot.
Hope that helps, just do the math and remember to use Respecs wisely.
Oh and P90 sucks, and the Shotgun is also amazingly good for any area with corridors, it's always 1 shot to kill if you hit them dead on.

Team Deathmatch isn't MW2's only gamemode.
Yes, but still everybody is trying to just get kills or whatever.
This is about winning over 2 factions in [b] the long run[/b] not just a 15 minute game.
[QUOTE=jr059375;19498309]Do not buy the MG for 5 skill points, its stats are worse than the first MG[/b]

I disagree. It has a little less accuracy but more damage. When you use the other MG skills together it's accuracy is unnoticeable but I found myself killing enemies faster.
I hate people who run into where my grenades are to fight a group that I'm trying to kill. I've lost like 30 exp this way.
I love throwing a grenade in a random area where people just to see "+5 XP" or throwing a nade and when someone kills you then it kills them.
I'm really enjoying it. I just wish it was easier to level up. Been playing for a day or so and I still am not Level 10. I'm still level 5.
We need to organize a MAG beta game.

You're grasping at straws.
Play MGO instead, it's sexy.
thisispain this doing his thing where he puts out statements so vague you can't argue about it. Just ignore him.

What?
judging from the video, the shooting just seems very stiff and unnatural
when you fire from the hip the crosshair, gun, and screen remain stationary. look at a good FPS like modern warfare 2 (cry some more butthurt bandwagoners), as unrealistic as it is, the shooting is excellent
