wow ....

I never played CoD game (god know why my PC can't handle CoD4 demo)

but I can't believe CoD possess an autoaim function ... it is clear to me, now, why they call it "noob FPS"

 

And this is why consoles are considered the "noob" platform for fps - because pretty much all of have autoaim. Especially R2.....it's got some hardcore autoaim.

 

 

But, since this seems to be another "bash MW2" thread, I guess other games can be ignored for now...

Ya, the auto aim in MW2 is a bit ridiculous for sure.

What I like most about the article is the fact that it clarifies that the "best selling shooter" may not necessarily be your favorite at the end of the day. COD4 was my favorite before KZ2 and now nothing can seem to replace KZ2. I don't like MAG either but I'm sure MAG would end up being some people's fav shooter as KZ2 has become mine.

It is natural, however, that those who don't know what they would really like would most likely sip the COD kool aid because it's the most popular but I'd say its better to test the waters before settling.

WAIT

my only FPS play on console is BLACK on PS2 (that was quite good if you only have this to play IMO)

I like FPS on PC (to some extent)

big question to you : does MAG have autoaim ?

IMO, only 1 time during the beta I had the impression I have helped by a magic hand .. what do u think ?



Time to Work !

If the IGN preview was that bad it wont get very high on Meta either.

My biggest complaint is that the squads are isolated from each other, or so I heard. And hey, whats up with the invisible walls (according to IGN). That's terrible if true.

I wanna be part of a huge 128 man army.

@ slimebeast: I just read the IGN preview: they based it on half an hour of play... that's like me basing my opinion of a game on a gameplay snippet at a gaming conference like E3 or Gamescom

@ FK: LOL, haven't see you post ANYTHING positive on the PS3 EVER.

By what extent are you saying the squards are isolated? Is it with the way domination is set up? I suppose I can agree on that since if the pairs of squads can't take out the burnoff and cooling towers, then they wont be able to advance and start assisting the team in damaging the refinery.

The invisilbe walls thing was when the guy said that an area of the map that he thought would be a great place to snipe (probably a tall hill or something) was inaccessable because it was the edge of the map.

The IGN preview was so stupid and it's a shame that the game being knocked down like that.

"Valkyria Chronicles 2 wont let me press R3 to quick knife an enemy like I can in Modern Warfare 2. This game was not fun!"

The preview has other people IGN people's opinions and one of them said,

"Playing MAG for a half hour really makes me appreciate Modern Warfare 2. I know this is just a beta, but this has hardly gotten me excited for this upcoming PS3 exclusive."

I don't know how long everybody else played who gave an opinion in that preview, but still.

While I'm certainly renting rather than buying it, to say that it's not a fun game is insane after the past week I had playing it.
