Forums - Gaming Discussion - MW2 vs. MAG really good read

Hmm MAGs problem is that its a massive team based shooter coming not even 3 months after the biggest shooter release of all time. Since you've got essentially 2/3rds of the multiplayer shooter audience on the PS3 playing MW2, how do you convince them to put down their controller when they and their friends are still heavily into MW2?

funny how you just noticed auto aim in shooter games. most people just think they are super skilled at shooting.

MW2 is actually fun, if your playing MAG prepare to die ALOT...

 

Also the weapons are like freaking BB guns, why the hell is the M4 so weak? Why do they all sound like airsoft guns? 

my biggest problem with MAG is that you have to wait 15 seconds (!!!) to respawn and get back in the game. In MW2 you can get back by just pressing Square button. And weapons are vastly underpowerd. i shoot the guy with the sniper 3 times and he didnt died

Don't look at the M4 compared to other games. It's a base weapon in MAG and as such, it's ment to be the weakest of the assault rifles on Valor since the point is to level up and unlock better stuff. You also need to factor in upgrades like increased stability, reload times, hand grip, and improved sights and that's when your weapon will be at it's most powerful. Even though Raven has fast firing weapons that do little damage, I was doing very well with their weapons this past week.

Still, I've had times where I've scavanged an M4 and took out plenty of people.

Like somebody else was saying, Valor has the best balance in their weapons, Raven weapons have a higher rate of fire and accuracy, but lower damage while SVER has a lower rate of fire and accuracy, but higher damage.

 



Mag is better than MW2, although it isn't good enough for me to like it.
