    Doesn't it allow you to have another faction character once you hit level 60?

    I think you can reset your characters stats and you are able to join another faction. I am not sure about this though

    I was just reading there, I think you might be right. You can 'prestige' and go with a new faction and you'll have a golds star beside your name, apparently, but be back to level 1.

    What a tough platinum this would be.

    I'd rather lick a goat's netheregions than have to platinum it!

    A sick analogy yes, but also an effective one!

    It makes Modern Warfare 2 look like Duck Hunt.

    That's... not true, but it definitely separates the tactical shooter from the Arcade Frag-fest. That's grand if you like that, I know I did, but I grew tired of the many, many bad maps and no Local Matchmaking. If you wanted more from MW2, then this you're only man. The game is fun after you wade through the first day or so of confusion and frustration.

    On the 256 player games (128 v 128)

    What are the game modes like?

    Is there any deathmatch-style modes on them?

    I'm only on level 6 and can only play 128player games (64 vs 64) but I seem to be playin the 32v32 deathmatch game more though, because...I'm rubbish at the moment lol

    No Deathmatches on 256 players.

    They should add some hilarious gametypes.

    256 players,...on a small map... Elimination - No respawns... with pistols... and S.V.E.R only have half a squad... and their mucky guns jam at random.

    I'm actually now wondering, the 64 v 64 maps are fair huge.

    Are the 128 v 128 maps bigger?? :eek:

    Or are they played on the same maps as the 64 v 64 ones?

    Ah SVER dont need any more players :p seriously, especially experienced ones. Join Valor!

    I have to give it to Raven, they have improved a hell of a lot the last few days. They have learned how to defend their Sabo map- push! Also theyre using a lot of poison gas, a lot of it effectively so.
    Theyre also getting better attacking Valor.
    Although thats incredibly easy when you know how no matter what anyone says. C is horrible to defend when the attackers know how to get in there.
    You need to push on defence of Valors map at A and B, a pair in the church at A does nicely too but not many catch on to that.

    There is none of that really, team work is the only way to gain an advantage.

    Motion sensors don't bother me in MW2, replace that with Thermal Snipers :mad:

    Very fast paced. Its tactical so I can promise you now that its as far away from MW2 as you can get. I averaged about 30 kills per game in MW2 I'm lucky to get 15 in a game of MAG, mostly because I stay back defending or healing squad mates.

    Watch the Gamespot review to get an idea of whats going on. IGN's review ain't bad but a little too critical.

    Sabo maps ain't my thing but I do find myself getting pwoned a lot in those games. Aqua lads!! All the way. Raven have defo improved, the difference in the game since last week end is phenomenal, we beat the crap out SVER a number of times last night. The Sabo maps kind of breath campers because everyone is running towards a fixed point.

    Ahh but I can't get as much points in Aqua as I can in Sabo...Usually get 500-1000xp in Sabo and would just about get 500 xp in Aqua...

    Man, getting into a bad group can really put you off things. Twice last night I was doing Domination with squad leaders who had no mics, refused to Frago anything and as a result it was 30 minutes of being mown down. They really need to introduce a ban on people without mics becoming leaders.
