Lol, people are getting sick of the game 2 and a half months before it releases!

what are you talking about? who is getting sick of playing it?

Look around you.

I think 4 betas is a bit excessive, don't you?

look around me? no1 is by me that is playing it..??? that makes 0 sense.

 

and no 4 betas is great, each one they improve and add new features, all stuff that was asked by the players....

 

this game is amazing for a person who actually wants an organized, headset, strategic environment with dedicated servers instead of mw2 where u join a random game and team up with a bunch of 12 year olds who wont stop constantly spamming over the mic in which you have to mute everyone, making communication and teamwork completely nonexistent.

I meant around you in the figurative sense, ie on this page in a forum on the internet which your browser is currently directed to.

Now, MAG. Teamwork? Teamwork requires communication. Half the people on PSN don't have headsets, and of the remaining half, 95% use their headset for heavy breathing and strange noises. I have, in my hundreds of matches on the PSN in several different games, been in no more than...five matches where people actually used headsets to communicate strategies. The beauty of CoD is that it is a solo team game. You don't need teamwork to succeed, and what teamwork you do use does not require communication.

I have no personal experience because for some reason, Sony always sends these betas to the same people. But, 128 people on the same team with no proper communication just seems to me like it would lead to complete chaos. Hell, I couldn't enjoy 30 vs 30 Resistance 2 games, because they were all over the place.
