PS3: MAGgots - How are things going.

[Ancient_One]

Reached level 60 in Raven and was wondering what people are up to.
Noticed we have a lot on 30 - 35 in Raven a few on the lower levels.

How are the other Factions progressing.?

Another question is. Should I stay or should I go.?
The allure of being a Veteran is calling me and Valor Company is severly outnumbered.

I am enjoying it although I admit I still have no idea what to do in domination or acquisition maps really. I also seem to find myself constantly playing the same maps over and over ini sabotage and suppression. Having fun though

Acquisition - Is a level designed to steel the latest technological vehicle form the other side. It requires the attacker to basically break into the compound where the vehicles are being kept. Steel then drive the vehicle to a drop point where a helicopter will pickup the vehicle. To gain access you have to remove gates, road blocks and open the container holding the vehicle. To ensure you can achieve this you might have to destroy bunkers, anti-air battery, mortar battery, sensors and vehicle pools which are being used to defend the compound.

Domination - Is a level designed to damage as much as posible the oil refinery. It requires the attacker to basically break into the compound, taking control of cooling towers, burnoff towers and oil pumps. To gain access you have to remove gates and road blocks. To ensure you can achieve this you might have to destroy bunkers, anti-air battery, mortar battery, sensors and vehicle pools which are being used to defend the compound.

The Squad Leader should be calling the frago's as it were. A blinking square around a traget on your map which is the next target for the Squad. As a team you should be trying to achieve or destroy that objective. It is posible and at times benefitial for people to go loan wolf, heading off on their own or with support, to acheive other objectives behind enemy lines. Destroying mortar batteries, anti-aircraft battery, sensors, gates, doors, road blocksvehicle pools. Anything which might help assist the Squad/Team to acheive ultimate victory. ie. as much damage as posible. A meter displays the level of damage as the game progresses.

One of the key targets in these games is the anti-air, mortar and sensors. Take them out and the defence starts to crumble. The fun part is trying to get to them in the first place.

Hope that helps mate.

Ditto.

Rotating between BC2 on PC, and FFXIII on PS3, haven't touched MAG in a while.

Im still only lvl 41 and I won't make 60 for a couple of months or when I turn 60 in 15 years Married with kids so my hours are limited
I wont be on tonight due to work Sorry

[Ancient_One]

Sorry guys with the decreased number of players in Raven I have decided to go Veteran mode and switched to S.V.E.R.

Currently at level 15 after 2 nights, it is my intention to complete S.V.E.R and join up with you all again in VALOR.

Going on how fast people are leveling I think that will occur in a few weeks. I note that a few of you are not that far away.

Wednesday Night matches are still on and it is my intention to join you all in game if I see you playing against S.V.E.R. So you have been warned.

TOG v TOG is live. Bring it on.

Since I switched sides can some one confirm the Raven Clan is still intact and who was automatically awarded the leader position.?

[Pure Mongrel]

I will check tonight

[my_right_buttock]

Thanks for tips Ancient, starting to get the hang of Domination and Acquisition, plays a lot differently to sabotage and suppression. Once I realised that the blinking letter is where I am supposed to shoot people it got easier

[Ancient_One]

Saw you and Johnny online last ngiht but no games where SVER were against you. All appeared to be VALOR.

Oh well will keep playing and trying.

Have been picking on the lowest number of players games. Found over the last few nights that Acquisition has the lowest number of players so getting a game 5 minutes after finishing the last one.

Just a thought for those looking to try and play mroe and wait less.

Go into the Deploy screen and check on the number of players then select the lowest one.

I was told a few weeks ago that if you let Directed place you in a waiting list you get extra XP on playing the game but I have to argue the waiting period between games might effect that aspect.
