    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!

    Ok I've just checked this out.....
    ive been playing MW2....
    But from what I've read people are mixed minds.....about it.....

    Im not sure what are the wepons and overall controls like? what be great to play that kinda game...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    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.

    The SVER imbalance is really pissing me off. Played sver 5 times tonight and only won once.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,643 ✭✭✭Gamer Bhoy 89


    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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    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.

    We suck at Sabotage, but that's gonna change!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,643 ✭✭✭Gamer Bhoy 89


    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?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,422 ✭✭✭RAIN


    Massive! The Aqua and domination maps are insanely big. Can't believe iv never had a disconnect or a hint of Lag!!!

    Oh ok..... so there's less motions sensor/camping/crap/double shotguns etc?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,686 ✭✭✭RealistSpy


    I am a poor dude so please tell me is this game worth buying? I like fps and I love online+mic!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,626 ✭✭✭WarZoneBrother


    I played very poorly today..All that coffee seemed to frustrate me...Raven are unbelievably bad in this game...Going to join S.V.E.R tomorrow if i get a few solid hours to finally get to level 60..

    Anyone know where you can check your stats on net?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 584 ✭✭✭BeansBeans


    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:

    telll me abut it :mad:

    is it fast paced? mag that is..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,422 ✭✭✭RAIN


    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.

    Dude are you playing the same game as me lol..They are constantly laying back from securing points then leave it all to me..I secure it, get raped by Sniper and I am the only Raven person for about a hundred feet lol..

    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.

    Agree completely... although even worse than a squad leader without a mic, is a squad leader without a mic and a squad composed of french chatting away to each other in french and not even trying to retake the objective we lost about 5 mins into a game of sabo.

    Easily the worst game i've had the displeasure to be involved in so far

    Even swearing at them in French (the only french i know) was doing nothing to get them in gear
