Yah. Apparently one of the 'hooks' for MAG is that you pick a faction and everything you do for it adds up in online leaderboards - basically so far as I get it they're trying to link the individual matches to an overarching sense of achievement. So if you play well your faction will do better overall. Seems sensible, although this early on if I was Zipper I'd focus more on in match gameplay tuning vs more macro level stuff like this. But hey, maybe they figure they got everything they needed at the detail level from the Beta to last them plenty of updates and want to add some macro level expansions, too. |
I personally think that's awesome. Like in many MMOs, your actions have a higher purpose.
