Certainly a welcome change to the likes of BF4, which has slowly been boring me since rls date.

It is fast paced FPS at its best!




The little things make the biggest difference.

The 150-300ms lag not driving you crazy?





I'm a geek, a gamer, a dad, a Quic user, and an IT Professional. I have a full rack home lab, size 15 feet, an epic beard and Asperger's. I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it. If you use my Quic signup you can also use the code R570394EKGIZ8 for free setup. Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.

No, i usually end up with 10-15 pilot kills 3-5 titan kills and 10-30 ai kills,

Iv learnt if you hop around the rooftops and keep away from melee range you are more likely to get the kills, also keeping outside of your titan can be very handy

Ask a potentially silly question, have you stumbled across any story line as such in your game play, or are you there to test combat specifically?

Because its beta you only get a small slice of even the multiplayer (think they are just stress testing), however it is more of an advertising campaign for the game than any real test. 

Combat is quick and smooth, would like the maximum number of players raised to 9/9 and the ai made a lot harder, i will have to wait for the full launch to be able to talk about the actual gameplay

I was suckered in to buying the game by playing the beta

At the moment it is 6/6 with i think 28 AI or something, anymore than 9 with titans would be way to overkill, they just need to make the AI actually do something

It puts you on certain servers as i believe the others are either closed or to full, hence the ms lag
But i was getting it around 12pm-6pm yesterday

If you message EA directly you should get a key, they have been doing that for the last couple of days

With that 300ms ping, which server region are you connecting to?

BTW I'm just asking about Xbox One not PC :)

I got 160ms to West US sever on Xbox One. No lag what so ever but the connection rating was rated at 1/5 bars.




Do whatever you want to do man.
