Zipper To Adjust Faction Balances In MAG

 as i said

I have to commemorate you for finding this deep down in the comments. And I'm glad they're fixing this. S.V.E.R. players probably think this is the easiest game in the world.

i think people shouldnt blame it on balancing but on how they work together and play but thats just my opinion

I think that the game will naturally balance itself out eventually.  The maps have advantages for all factions in various battle modes but although there are times when I feel that SVER pressed their 2 shot kills for all weapons button, I don't have any hard evidence on it.  They are probably just very good guys getting headshots.  I think all the hardcore beta players migrated to SVER and they just got a jump on us.  My clan is actually doing quite well.  We've got more wins than losses and we almost always got someone on the mvp board.  Whatever they patch, I hope All factions don't suffer from weapon suppresion.  I've picked up weapons from enemies I've shot down and aside from SVER's LMG having better stability and their SMG more poweful at long range,  nothing really gave me the WOW factor. Raven has a nice F90 and I still like our weapons just fine.  It all boils down to teamwork.  Get in a clan, get some tactics, and you'll start to win more.  You'll definately have more fun.  If MAG wasn't challenging, alot of us would not have paid $60 bucks for it. 

Damn right D.I.Y.E. is doing well! REPRESENT!

I will agree with KG. This whole misconception of S.V.E.R. being overpowered is honestly a bit of a joke to me. Like I have said before, yes their maps are easier to defend, but that's where teamwork comes in. The only gun in this game that is overpowered is all the PMC's LMG's. They said they were going to limit this down a bit, not to noticeable, but enough that it gives the assault guys a slightly better chance. Other than that, get with a solid clan that knows what they are doing, and you will do fine. Communication is key, bickering is for pansies, its a game people.

I don't think, personally, the LMGs are overpowered.  I do believe there are some egregious exploits on the SVER sabotage map.  There's crates/planks they can hide behind and shoot through, but you cannot shoot them back.  Also, they can flip the objectives from behind the outer wall... that's pretty obvious.  I'm happy that Zipper is planning on checking into the facts and doing something about it.  I'm sure there's exploits on the Raven and Valor maps, but I'm not usually interested in looking for them.

Regardless, I still am of the belief that a good team will kick ass on any may at any time regardless of the inbalances.

Agreed. I was just pointing out that the LMG's are slightly overpowered, but more importantly the fact that S.V.E.R. and Raven on both their Acquisition Maps as well as S.V.E.R. on Sabotage can defuse the objective or an explosive from the back of the gate or objective. Those va-jay-jay's should have to come outside and defuse it like men and women so we can murder their asses. Zipper has already said a patch fixing that and limiting the LMG's a slight amount would be coming.

I love the fact that when you fight tooth & nail to get to a triple A hold O for like 5 seconds to arm it, praying nobody cuts you down, finally after an eternity arm it, get shot defending it, and the enemy walks up to the charge and touches it and its disarmed.  Happened alot yesterday. Last I looked, disarming explosives are supposed to have a delay, too.  Not to mention that zipper must have he he'd about putting our re supply room on sabo in C right inside the FRONT DOOR! so people could run in there and throw explosives at you all day.

When you plant charges at C in Sabotage and you lose XP for all the friendlies you kill defending it when it blows up... LOL  I lost like 40 XP the other day, my jaw hit the floor.
