Which AR scope do you recommend?

[Shojin]

I recommend LMG's.

[Eggroll]

x4 optical sight, no question. Costs 2 points like the reflex sight, adds a lot more accuracy, better sights, and only costs 100cc more.

Do you guys get randomly kicked off of a domination match when it's loading?

No, but my game freezes a lot, but it is a known issue. I just recently deleted Game Data and reinstalled it all and haven't frozen so far... yet.

For disconnections this is from MAG forums:

Disconnection Errors – 5:4, 5:5, 13:5

[Status: Investigating]



5:4 Errors mean that you were disconnected from the game because of ISP or infrastructure issues.

5:5 Errors mean that you were disconnected from the game for an unknown reason.

13:5 Errors mean that you were not able to connect to the game server.

[Insanecyclone]

13:5 Errors mean that you were not able to connect to the game server.

I get this half of the time and I try to join a game for domination.

Haven't tried an LMG yet but heard good things, and 13:5 was the one I was getting for a bit yesterday. Do you stop earning skill points once you hit 60? Worried about trying to deck out both builds and coming up short on points.

That's what respec is for.

with me I can not respec still 27,000 points ~_~; hardly fun. Tho someone said when I vet it goes down to 3000, and you get to keep yours. Might just wait for that.

I want to try and hit up raven or something when I hit 60... Not 100% about that yet as I know no one at all on that end. Al

[ArchDizzle]

Right, but you just get all of your skill points back to reallocate and lose your skills instead of having enough skill points to set up two builds at the same time, right? (Not sure if it is possible to have enough skill points for two builds at the same time, if not would rather max one and slightly bump the other then respec when I want to change things up if that makes sense.)

Wow, that's awesome thanks.

[Shojin]

Use the site I posted, you can use it to plan your builds, you get a point per level so the max you'll have is 60? or 59?

EDIT: Oh, there you go.

I edited a map of yours to add a little more info that I have found out or think anyways. You can tell me if you see it that way as well. added a few sniper zones to watch for as well as a sniper zone for us. Also added the 3rd area we can enter from on the right that lots forget about.

Light Blue lines = a area that is good for us to hold. Snipers can pick off people from both A and B from this nest.
Red lines = Paths SVER usually take, from my experience.
Green circles = Where (I think?) Valor spawns are, not 100% sure though.
Blue circle = Enemy snipers usual camp.

Also I have not laid a path yet. But that left side has a bad flank that they tend to use. The camp with the tents is a big area to watch people trying to sneak behind us.


edit: Cant find any maps not even the in game ones >.> grrr LOL

[Shojin]

Oh, I added stuff to the other birdseye map but forgot about it

Same as above
Red lines = Paths SVER usually take, from my experience.
Green circles = Where (I think?) Valor spawns are, not 100% sure though.
Blue circle = Enemy snipers usual camp.

The yellow line I added is a path I like to take, if you run up the hill to the left of the left fortress entrance at C, you'll come to some stairs leading up. Going this way brings you in to the fortress on the second level, just above the objective. I can usually make it up there pretty easily.

I looked and it seems no one has the maps, I found someone asking on the mag forums but it seems that only one person claims to have it. As proof he posted one of the pics you showed. (I also found that one 100 times).

zipper has it on the *to-do-list* a few people said. So as of now best we can do is try and get SS's of the in game maps.

I will try and get maps with my camera in a day or so.... no clue how well that will look tho.

[zoobernut]

Zipper should build high detail maps into the game like that in an area where OIC's and qualifying ranked people can draw battle plans on them and then show them to everyone else.

It would be kinda cool if you could make battle plan maps like that as an OIC and then name them and give them to everyone else at the beginning of a battle.

[Biddinger]

So I was playing on Valor doing sabotage with a pick up group...and we discovered you can boost people in to the opposition's spawn points when you're attacking. We'd go up to raven/sver spawns and sit behind where they spawn, set up claymores and mow them down as they spawned. Kind of ruins the game, but it was funny as hell seeing people get so pissed off. If you guys can get a squad organized to do it, I suggest you try it once before zipper fixes it...just for giggles.

Just finished a round with 41 charges planted and 1662 exp. The door glitch may suck for winning against SVER in domination, but it makes for some very easy exp.
