Nice find, I'm eligible to be a squad leader but never done it cause I ain't sure how to do the commands and such.

Yeah, I haven't bothered with it much myself either. People bitch about squad leaders not having mics so I haven't really led very much. I enjoy getting points for doing everything else though.

Re: MAG (PS3)

What squad is most people on? I tried valor didn't like it now I am gonna try Sver or raven don't know which yet

I played Valor and switched to S.V.E.R. because I liked their weapons better, or at least I thought I did, I may switch back to Valor. I did find the communication to be better on S.V.E.R so I may stick with them. Decisions, decisions.

All those vids should have come on the disc.

I agree. I think it is too little, too late. Especially since BC2 is dropping this week.

I'm playing my first training suppression matches and just have no clue....this game is so massive yet does crap to teach you anything it seems...with all these guys on a map at once it's just a big cluster****. All I hear on mic is people saying "omg team, you suck, you're a fa***t" lol

I'm getting better, but doesn't feel that epic. I don't see what would make me want to buy this over Battlefield coming out soon, you know? I get hung up on scenery a bit too...sucks to die cause a tree was clipping you in a weird way.

I may just send this back to GF sooner, don't really see the point in playing just a little while....

The graphics seemed a little 'blah' to me...granted I've been playing ME2 and Heavy Rain recently, but it didn't really seem to do anything different from shooters a few years ago....

Give it a little more time, MAG is a sweet game once you get a few levels up and are able to play all the game modes. Nothing is greater then rolling in with 127 more people with the intention of destroying everything that is in front of them.

I'm only gameflying it...don't think I really care to put in the hours it'd take me to get awesome. I have MW2 sitting here if I want, and may get Battlefield 2 BC when it drops. I may give it some more time this weekend, but I have other stuff i can play that's actually more enjoyable right away. Also makes me realize that bigger isn't better for me. Bigger means you get more racist, homphobic douchebags, smaller I can usually find a group of decent people to play with. Everyone on my 2 games so far on mic was annoying as hell lol.

Nothing against this, I'm sure it's fun, but I'm not gonna be a high level multiplayer guy who puts in 8 hours a night...

Suppression is just a mode that gets your feet wet. Sabotage and the other modes are quite good, once you understand what is happening. It takes a little while, but it is quite satisfying once you understand everything.

Idiots with mics really piss me off. If I can I will go to a quiet team, and usually we will have greater success. I was playing last night in Domination, and there was these three dudes who were complaining about getting killed constantly. The rest of us kicked them from the squad and we were able to take the objectives and win the match with five people in our squad.

This game isn't very pretty to look at, but it is pretty fun once you get used to it. But, like you said BC2 is looking to be spending a lot of time in my console come Tuesday.

Yeah, I can see how this would be fun. It's just that MAG's key feature is the massive player scope, and I guess I don't care that much about that...so I'm better off playing something smaller with other quality key features...

You can trust EA. The game is an instant classic. I really like MAG, but I haven't thought about since Monday @ Midnight.

I know you put the "lol" in there, but dude, EA is just the publisher. DICE is the developer. The game is disgusting.
