Default MAG's Veteran Mode explained

MAG's Veteran Mode explained

Filed under: Game mechanics, PvP, War, Consoles, MMOFPS, MAG

MAG's official launch was only a few days ago, but developer Zipper Interactive is already explaining some of the benefits to having a high level character in the MMOFPS.

Players who hit the level cap of 60 can enable "Veteran Mode", which Zipper Interactive has mentioned in the past.

Now, they've clarified what exactly the advantages to doing so are in a blog post -- essentially it's an incentive to reroll once you've maxed out your character, and experience more of the game.

If you're looking to try something new, you'll be able to keep your past accomplishments (medals, ribbons, and related stats) when you reset your character to level 1.

Even though your experience counter resets to zero, your lifetime experience will show everything you've ever earned as a permanent record viewable on the stats page of your barracks.

Players after trophies for hitting max level in all private military companies (PMCs) in MAG will want to take advantage of Veteran Mode and the experience boost it imparts.

Veteran Mode gives players a permanent 10% bonus added to the experience total for each match, provided that players sticks through the entire round.

Other players can easily recognize a Veteran by the gold insignia displayed beneath that character's rank.

While we suspect it'll be a while before most players hit that level cap, Zipper Interactive detailed MAG's Veteran Mode on the game's official blog.

Bump for Cadder.

Veteran selection is only available on completing a Faction character to level 60. On the login screen you can make a choice to switch Factions or stay in the current Faction by selecting Veteran on the screen.

Your presented with a Faction icon list the same as your original character selection screne where you can choose your existing Faction again or a different one.

Once you have completed the change the option then disappears until you complete the newly chosen Faction to level 60 once again.

Thanks, A_1. I'd rep you for that, but I'm all repped out, apparently.
So you get a trophy instead

PM, give this man a TOG gamer award. Again.

Hey Cadder I like that pic in the corner. May be we should put the awards in the posts and just have links to them?
