Will do! I was raging last night after a game of capture the flag. The enemy team had a nice spread of 2000 score for everyone on their team. I was highest score on my team with 3000, with the second highest being 600 :cry:

I could only imagine they were playing the mode like standard attrition, as nobody was attempting to capture the flag, and no one was protecting our flag at all :P
If you aren't having a good time, why are you playing?

The game really needs to add some team balancing.

Pretty bad when one team is all but 1 person above 30 and the other is all below 10.

It may be balanced on skill rating rather than level.

Nah, jump over to their blog and Q&A stuff, they have said they are looking into team balancing.

Just finished the Campaign, lazy way to do it, but it was an enjoyable way to level up to props to them.

The more I play, the more I enjoy it.

This is what I chose to do. I have a fast connection, but waiting for that download would be painful. Its on 3 DVDs with a bit of Origin patching at the end. Game is great so far.

Same here. After the initial shine wore off I was a little disappointed but once I learned a little more about how to play I'm pretty hooked.

At first I thought the Burn cards were disappointing due to lack of impact on a match but then I realized how often you were supposed to use them. At first I thought they were supposed to kind of be "trump cards" that could totally swing a match but once I realized that wasn't the case I figured out how to use them effectively.

Still have a lot of work to do in terms of what loadouts I like for both pilot and titan and for some reason it's taking me a long time to grasp the maps but oh well more reason to keep playing.

Cool. I just know that several of these multiplayer FPS titles use an invisible (to the player) score to determine matching and you'll think they're unbalanced because you have a level 50 player with a bunch of level 10s, but it's because the 50 has put the time into being that level, but still sucks.

I got to play it this weekend and it feels alot like a step between the Call of Duty styled games from the few years, and the arena shooters of the late 90s. I enjoyed it but will not be buying it for a while for the reasons stated earlier: most of my gaming group is not buying it yet.
