Theyre making some good updates already, and the gameplay has gotten a lot more interesting over the last few weeks. Biggest complaint is that it takes forever to get the anti vehicle rocket launcher, which is as necessary in this as it is in battlefield. As soon as a tank rolls up, you basically have to pray you have your own tanks on the way or that someone has less of a life than you and managed to snag a launcher.

Conserve your rockets, find the weak spot, make your shots count, and don't fire when you're out in the open.shaq_mobile wrote:Hey guys, over the last two or three weeks I've probably logged about 6 hours on the game.

That's incredibly casual of you to say, especially for an "mmo".

Killing enemies + repairing vehicles + repairing MAXes + repairing turrets + throwing down ammo = lots of XP. If you want to "power level", defend The Crown on Indar as an engineer and the XP/Auraxium will flow like water.The "good" rocket launchers still take a LONG time to get them, same goes for other upgrades...

DancinJack wrote:So...you want to have an MBT with the highest armor, damage per shot, and agility? That doesn't sound overpowered at all. Anywho...while the magrider is agile, we still have to point the nose of the tank towards the target since the turret doesn't rotate. Believe it or not, that does become an issue.The Magrider destorys the Vangaurd in those respects and it's almost stupid how well you can get around in a Magrider compared to the Vangaurd.

If they upgrade it (which it sounds like they plan to, but I have no idea) I'll join in.
DancinJack wrote:Honestly, the game looks pretty good. I run @1920x1200 on medium settings. Pretty pleased with the combination of performance and quality.

Savyg wrote:I have a limited budget. It goes towards game developers that actually feel like putting out a quality product instead of halfassing it.
