Beta thoughts

id like to say first of all, thanks to EA for attempting a patch... but it seems like its missing something

Wake Island 2142: Ok map, brilliant for air battles, very small land area, unique map 6.5/10
Operation shingle?:basically Gibralter, Cebere, and Minsk combined, seems very 1 sided, 7/10

The lack of wide screen support in the beta left me sad. i cant wait for true wide screen resolutions.
overall both maps feel just O.K. at the moment. of course this comes from only 2 hours of play(1 hour each), but they feel like they're missing something. hopefully when they fix it up a little it will improve, but until then im disappointed
feel free to throw in your thoughts on the first trial of the beta!

Re: Beta thoughts

Points are irrelevant. Just have fun.

Wake Island 2142 feedback or questions should go here please!

Makes it easier for us to change it based on what you want.

Re: Beta thoughts

The biggest flaw with Shingle is that the defenders get 30 extra tickets, not the attackers.

Re: Beta thoughts

If that's where they're posting feedback, we're not going to get any of that! I hate that forum.

Re: Beta thoughts

Its somewhat frustrating reading everyone bitch about Wake because its balanced for a team game rather than people running around like idiots.

Re: Beta thoughts

A shame, but I think it's kind of like beer... if you've never had anything but PBR how would you know whether a particular russian imperial stout was a good one or not...


Wake is like that great stout, an obvious instant classic to beer afficianados, a really wierd flavor for PBR drinkers.

I'm glad I've learned about good beer from beer geeks and brewers
and
I'm glad I learned about playing battelefield from TG.

Hats off to Sir for brewing a classic for us!

Re: Beta thoughts

i think i posted a comment earlier about "anzio" now known as operation shingle being Camp G on steroids, and i was pretty close.
i think the bottom line for me is that they are both built more towards team play. shingle wont be as easy to defend as camp G or cebere ( i say that lightly ) or such a meat grinder, but an organized team will do well and thrive.
and its not inconcievable that the attacking team on wake (i forgot who starts on the ground ) goes half a round before they capture more than 1 flag. the docked titan with no shields makes it a real battleground, theres no where to hide and retreat to heal yourself where the enemy cant follow. (too many times i've put rounds into someone only to seem them make it into the hallway and stand 2feet behind the hall shield with medic hub in hand.) so teamwork will prove highly valuable.

and as soon as i get my new pc together and back online i will be right back in the middle of it on the TG server

Re: Beta thoughts

Thanks guys. I know the map is balanced for teamplay. Everyone can choke on it until they finally break down and work as a team.

Re: Beta thoughts

Sir AAK625 you must have a serious set of stones to throw yourself headfirst into the EA forums like you have been.

At least now you know how George Lucas feels like at a Star Wars convention

Re: Beta thoughts

For what its worth, Shingle's author posted saying that it was, in fact, a bug and will be fixed on release.
