You will be fine, all you need to do is get to rank 4 which takes about 30 minutes then use you're 4 skill points on the medical kit and resuscitation add-on and you should fly through the levels, fastest way I have found.

so one might see lots of copys of this on the members market soon then lol shame really
 
Didnt even realise this was out!

Now to decide whether to trade in anything I have to somehow find the £37 for it, or to give it a miss.... Ive just 1 month to pass to get MLB 10 The Show, so MAG could fill that nicely for me.

Is it based on the same premise as the COD games ie Rank up to get better weapons, perks and stuff?

I need to have a good read of reviews, this was a game i dreamed of getting but its just not been on my radar for some reason.
 
Purchased this last night at Tesco.... now ive not opened it yet as im not sure if its the right buy for me.

Longevity wise, can the game survive with Battlefield coming out? - MAG needs a very large community to keep up the 256 man battles (thats what intrigues me about this).... if it dies down and becomes your bog standard 32-64 man tops wars, then it loses something.

I know that the game is split down into smaller battles, but I believe the game crescendos in a all out fight and as seen on some videos if organised you can get everyone in together.

Plus the small thread on here concerns me as OCUK always has solid threads on good games....
 
Well I played my first 256 player battle last night on Directives and it was not enjoyable at all, the lag was SHOCKING, such a strain on the eyes, I much prefer playing the smaller maps like Sabotage etc.
 
I'm up to level 25, and I've had lag on Domination (the 256 player mode) only a couple of times. HOWEVER, I'm Raven and we're not doing it much now as because the bulk of SVER are playing that mode you are almost always attacking/defending against SVER and it is an exercise in not throwing your controller through the window attacking the SVER dom map if the team isn't VERY organised.

oh dear :(

Anyone else have lag issues with the larger map?

I've just totally explained that wrong, sorry no lag issues at all, what I meant to say was that the larger maps had too much going on! Artillery/APCs/Smoke and too many people, the PS3 just couldn’t handle it at a decent frame rate, the FPS dropped and was quite severe and very noticeable, felt like it was running at 15-20 fps at times imo.

This was definitely unplayable on a fun level for me so I will be staying clear of the 256 player maps in the future.

Will be on again tonight for a good 4-6 hours I think lol, so will add anyone who has posted their PSNIDs in here already! We should definately make a group off these forums or something so we can play together more easily, oh my PSNID is "BunkA-"
