I've finally gotten some hours in. I like MAG. Liked it more once I upgraded my rifle. Liked it even more when I was able to play some Domination last night (that is some crazy shit). I've been in some games where noone communicates (felt like mw2) and others where we really communicated well and locked things down.
They've done a nice job with the open mics not sending backround audio like mw2 does constantly. The only time I hear someone not talking is when they cough or something.
I've just gotten to the point (rank 15) where I can start commanding a squad, so I think that will be a fun aspect down the road when I can do more of that on a higher level (call in airstrikes, etc??)
i think it will be more fun when the other game modes are open.
I don't think this is something we'll be able to compete against each other in, the scale of the game seems to be just too big, and there isn't any support for custom rooms, etc. This is a beta and things could change I guess but since this has already gone gold I wouldn't expect such a large change.
We can still join forces and dominate. Go VALOR!
