Only in domination or other modes too?

My first two experiences with MAG tonight were pretty bad lol
first game absolutely no one had a mic.
second game three guys had one mic and they basically just stuck to themselves.
other than that, zero lag for me here. I gotta get used to this bluetooth headset too lol
btw Click I sent you a request for MAG

Two quick questions, sorry if they have been answered before. Just picked this up tonight and i'm leveling up my medic skills. anyway, i just got the first one. i can't seem to get it to heal other people. i aim at dudes and hit r1 and it just heals myself. is there something else i have to do (maybe in loadout or something?). also, does the first aid cross next to a players name over their head mean they need some health or does that mean they are a medic? i wish this game's manual actually explained some of this! other than that, i am really loving this game. great title. shit loads of fun.

Played some good games with some Gaffers today. Love this game. 
You need to have the resuscitation skill and also the appropriate medical item in your loadout (the one that costs 1000c and looks larger - I forget the name).
If you're alive the cross means they're dead. If you're dead the cross means they're a medic. (at least that's how I remember it. I might be wrong)

thanks a lot guys! well back to it. no one would answer the questions in the game i was playing. i may need to sign up for the gaf clans. seems like lots of people are not communicating in this game and then complaining because they are getting killed. don't run into battle by yourself. novel idea, huh? anyway, thanks again guys.

anyone else have their game get really choppy in domination
I picked this game up today after trading some older games in and so far I have been pretty impressed with the lack of lag. Time just flew by when I got in the games and I love the queue allowing you to adjust armory and skills until you find a game.
On another note I also think at one point I ran into a couple of you GAF guys. I know for sure at one point I saw someone named Corran with a GAF clan tag.

When I went and picked up my copy, the lady at the counter told me she was running out of bags because so many people went that day to pick up MAG. I was shocked when she told me that, because I didn't think that many people were interested in it. I'm glad to see my thoughts were wrong.DCharlie said:

From what I understand, MAG is doing surprisingly well in Japan.

uhm no offence, but are you playing the game in upscaled SD or something? MAG looks (well, in the beta) very sharp but these screens are kinda blurry/soft.
But thanks for sharing.
(see Zipper? bring back XMB screenshots )
)Shopto shipped my CE of MAG yesterday as well. Though I'm from continental Europe so it will take some more time to arrive

yeah same here in philippines. most shops are out of stock.
at least i got my copy and i cant wait to get home and play (and get pwned) :lolI hit level 30 tonight with about 12 hours "played". This game is crazy fun.
For anyone interested, I went Med Kit > Revive > all the useful MG talents and PSK MG > sprint stuff > Anti-personnel mines > anti-vehicle mines > Poison Gas Grenade > Acoustic Locator.
I can't figure out what exactly the acoustic locator is doing for me when I have it equipped. Also, I put points into that health increase, but it was only 20 health which doesn't seem worth the 5 points it takes. I ended up respeccing because of it.

Yeah I get the same feeling here..it also helps the Japanese version is only 4000ish yen..much cheaper than getting the US version. I still like getting the US version of my games, but if I can't find it this weekend I'll just grab the Japanese one.
i got the last copy at my local gamestop tonight. the manager is a friend of mine and he said they are flying off the shelves everywhere. this game almost flew under my radar. glad i watched that giantbomb video. pretty much sold me on the game. i am really loving this game, especially playing as the support class. so much fun backing up your squad. and sometimes i even get a few kills myself!
Just played some more with sir click, loving the game even more. I'm loving this game in a way I just couldn't love MW2. It's kinda nice not having the opposing team summon helicopters, gunships and nukes. Call me crazy. I wish the game had mw2 weapons tho
Been doing mostly medic so far bc I do that in every game. The battles can get a little hectic when the shit hits the fan and you are at ground zero and there are nades going off every 3 feet. Love it.

I saw a GAFfer by the name of BagelBoard (raven) in Domination. Dude, if you're reading this, what the hell was going on with those strafing runs? It was as if there was no cooldown, over and over. I know the OIC has an instant refresh ability, but then that has a cooldown, right? Seemed like a glitch to me.

Bagelbeard? That's Das-J, the zipper employee. Pretty sure he won't have been using any glitches.theBishop said:
Speaking of glitches I got revived at objective F on one of the domination matches and glitches inside the objective, couldn't get out but I could shoot out, didn't seem like the opposition could shoot in either. After running out of ammo in both my rifle and hand gun I finally died to grenades.

We didnt have a OIC and they just rushed us until we couldnt defend shit :/theBishop said:

You may never go back. That's how it's been for me. The best thing is, it only gets better as time goes on and you get more into the strats and battles.
Good news to hear this game selling out. Deserves every penny.
Fucking awesome when you get someone else competent playing with you in command. Click and I rained hell on them.

Too true.
theBishop said:
While not having an OIC certainly contributed to that chaos, what we experienced in that match was a very effective command structure teaming up to dominate us.
The strategy they employed goes something like this:
1) OIC uses voice chat to let all his leaders know to use up their strikes
2) OIC waites ~3 minutes for the majority of strikes to be expended
3) OIC refreshes strikes and tells leaders to have at it
4) Opposing team gets pounded with strikes for minutes on end
If we had an OIC he could have countered this move by jamming their signals and slowing their respawn waves, but alas we did not and got shredded!
So did anyone anywhere get a Raven Pre order code from reading any forums?
I'm not asking for one just kinda discussing if anyone were able to get them.
or does anyone in game reconize the differences from the pre-orders for any of the factions? Watching streams on Justin.tv I see so many running and gunning and dying faster than fast.
