I have not really followed this game and only bits and pieces of this thread, So if I pick up this game and pick my faction and say 3 of my online friends have it but we are all different faction we can never play together on the same team?

No. You can only play on the same team with people from your faction.

They don't give you the player count in Suppression so it's impossible to tell how many are in-game at a time.

Well, if they retain 4 players per second, during 24 hours that would be a total of 4*3600*24 = 345.600 players.


..... but that would be waaaaay too awesome, so we're just gonna wait for NPD to take a closer peak at the game's sales...

Unless DAS-J posts a big green, so we know thing are going alright. :D

Sorry for bringing in sales into this thread. :p

Picking up MAG tomorrow, 2 days before official release. I am as excited as a giggling school girl getting fondled behind the bike sheds.

Didn't catch your game invite earlier; apologies.

Raven GAF: I'll be online for the next couple of hours or so... I do believe I have invite powers so send me a PSN message if you want a clan invite.

Cmon guys, who ordered via Amazon and hate Home? I need the SVER Space hook up!

Also although Beta 5 didnt sell the game to me, ill still get it later int the year.

One last thing, if you want to get a Sony Headset for cheap, there is a sale of "Tom Clancy's Endwar" BT bundle for $20 at Best-buy. YMMV though but it beats getting it for $50 if you find it.

How do you unlock new weapons? Just reaching new levels?
Click to expand...

When you level up, you get a skill point.

You, then, spend skill points on skills/items.

When you unlock a certain weapon, you need to edit your loadout so it includes the newly aquired weapons, if you wish so.

That's a smart decision, since you'll speed up XP gain and thus speed up leveling quite a bit. :)

AND sometimes, having a living teammate is a little bit more useful than having a dead one... :p

Still surprised how smooth this is running on launch day. Most flawless MP launch this gen. Hats off Zipper. Have to take a break, do some paperwork, and I'll most certainly be back later. Such a damn good time.

That's very encouraging news. I can't wait to join Raven in their quest for world domination. Kowak, I'll be in touch on Friday.

Had to go the Raven route eh? It's to be known all friendships are off on the battlefield...

Doesn't take too long to get that XP now, feasting on the souls of the many noobs in the game. Or considering how SVER just dominates the two others.

A quick tip to those who wonder why they can't resuscitate after spending the required skill points on it: make sure you have the proper equipment equipped. Nothing like seeing a player squat down near you and just stand there, trying to rez you.

Once I hit level 4 and could pump skill points into healing / rezzing, I'm finding myself leveling a lot quicker (as I did during the beta).

Yeah, rolled SVER and Valor during the beta phases and wanted to mix it up a bit!

Don't worry though, I make taking a ton of bullets to the face a distinct pleasure... :lol

Up to level 6 now, SVER is rocking everyone like no other. Game so freaking good, there is some awesome teamwork going even with the lack of communication.

To pre-empt the predictable "the issue must be on your end" responses: I am posting from the same connection so it's not an ISP issue, the beta worked fine for me and I have NAT Type 2.

This is happening to me as well. It let me log in earlier. This is upsetting,
