Anyone else find the Mars map pretty unbalanced?

A and B are so close together that you can pretty much lock those two down and leave C for the other team. It's happened in every single Mars game i've played. The team on the C side has a much harder time locking down B initially and it's incredibly easy to lock down A and B because of how easy it is to move between them. It's much harder to move safely between A and C or B and C. It's even more advantageous to no bother moving out to cap C if you're destroying the other team because the extra C spawns complicate things.

I agree, though I think you have your letters mixed up, unless I am thinking of a different map. A is the one farther away in that rotating cylinder thing, and B and C are almost right next to each other on different floors, with the C side having a much better spawn and almost half the distance to B.
 
Anyone want to play? Add me, PSN: redbeanrice

I can't solo queue anymore. The unbalanced teams are real. Even when I score 6k points, I still lose. I've lost 30/46 games, and I can't take it any more.

Shit i think you're right. Actually you're definitely right.
 
I wonder what will be awarded on the 26th that carries over. Saw some chatter about the Emblem, but I wonder if anything else will stick around.

Started as Titan for the Beta as it was what clicked best in the alpha and I still love it. Really wanted to try something different so I've been playing Warlock, not really sure my verdict on them yet. I love the look and the space magic seems cool but he withers compared to my Titan and I don't feel like I have much to counter that yet.

Still haven't tried the Hunter at all.
 
You can. You just have to pick up ammo when you switch weapons. It's like abandoning a plasma rifle for one with a fresh battery.

or you can just keep ammo packs in your inventory..........like I do.

1. Switch weapon
2. Use ammo pack
3. Fuck shit up
4. ???
5. Profit
 
I've gone through the first couple of areas, and just finished retrieving the warp drive for my ship. Sad to find out I can't actually pilot my own ship wtf.
All in all, not really feeling it.... (yet?).
 
It really is. Especially when you and/or teammates take the opposing team's tank. >:)
How can you stop a team with two tanks?
You don't. >:D

The team I was just on had a tank and 4 people on the bikes with missiles thing. Just wrecking people. The game before I was on turret while actually being protected, so I kept destroying their vehicles. It was great and reminded me of Halo when you'd get a tank and have people run along side using it as cover and protecting from high jackers.
 
But the moon map got nothing on the Mars map. Fuck Zone B and C. If you get that map, cross your fingers and hope you are on Bravo. Alpha squad needs to forget about A and head straight to B. All six members.
 
Where is the 61 attack rifle bein sold? It isnt at gunsmith

Edit: cydonia ar3. Earliee people said it was bein sold.

Yeah it was me, but it was a quite a wee bit ago. The vendor isn't selling it anymore :(, last I checked (30mins ago) he was selling a green high powered pulse rifle. Don't know how good they are as I never use them personally though.

Yeah Bravo has such a ridiculous advantage on the Mars map. Very frustrating.

On the moon map, I always head straight to the turret across Zone B. Easy kills all the time.

It is quite frustrating. Whoever controls Zone B, controls the entire battlefield. Zone A is so far away from others and Zone C is right next to B and anyone controlling B really got a good vantage point to snipe anyone heading to C. Zone A should just be forgotten.
 
Well... I found a level 20 area way past the Forgotten Shores called The Grotto. Managed to get inside a Hive Nest. Must keep going.

Yeah that place is fun to get in and out of. Would have been far more rewarding if we got some loot there, but just making it through felt good.
