| Did I mention they were free! I love this game, and hate this game.
The grind is getting to me. Raven is so poor, as a cohesive PMC that I'm trolling Suppressions with a Boudini and a motion sensor. |

| I'm at 40 right now, will probably grind another level or two out tonight, and I hope to Vet to Valor tomorrow. Double XP, my Vet bonus, and the Contract bonus should make Valor an easy grind, I'm hoping to be back in SVER by the weekend. That'll be 3 vets this week, and I'll finally be back in my PMC.
Double XP starts at 12:OO am Pacific, tomorrow, and ends at 12:00 am Pacific, Monday, as far as I'm aware. Fast Attack will be up on time, after the PSN store updates, so be sure to take a second and snag it.
DJ, you killed it tonight, man. Bummer about the loss in Syr Darya, but we took it right to the wire, so it's hard to be unhappy with that.
Since I'll be leaving Raven tomorrow, I'll leave Dingo or Deej in charge of our Axis chapter. Anybody know if Sey has a group set up for SVER? If I don't hear anything, I'll get one up and running when I get back there, likely Saturday. |

| Yeah, plus you guys are normally holding double contracts in Sabo, for the bonus 10% XP. I'm hoping to zip through Valor, with the Sabotage and Vet XP bonuses. |

| Double XP is in full effect, and Fast Attack is up. The HM90 SE is wonderful, I'd like to see the stats on the new SASR, so if you hop on EcR, take a look and let me know how she's looking.
I'll be leaving Raven tonight, and heading to Valor, so if I can get a clan vite, that'd be great. My goal is to get to SVER again by Saturday night.
I'm in love with the new Rifles, I plinked down 14 paratroopers a few games ago, and with a foregrip, you can effectively fire it close up, as a mock AR. Great anti-snipe tool, as well. Dropshotting is clunky, but it's a scoped rifle, it's to be expected. |

| You're more positive than I was ... I felt the recoil negated any benefit to the fire rate at distance (though I find all sver guns have more recoil & lower accuracy). Must be all the damn duct tape stopping power was a step up but if I'm going for a mobile sniper, I'll stick with the second tier sniper .. New armour is a nice fit in between and appears effective ... |

| I guess I should've said the HM90 SE. I like it a lot, I've yet to try the others. Need a few more levels to Vet, just going to grind it out in the morning.
I really dig the 400c armor, it looks good, and it's more durable than I thought it would be. |

| Really like the Reinforced Armor MkII. I had had to switch up to Heavy just to survive a single shot, but now I can without losing the mobility I need. I've also speced to buy the Health upgrade. Can't for the life of me see any difference after buying Explosive Resistance. 'Nades still one shot me, even if they aren't on top of me. I know this is a newb thing to say, but I think more than anything lag is kicking my butt in this game. I die from being shot after I know I'm behind cover. Unless Raven has developed Augers, then that's gotta be lag. I guess it's to be expected with this many people, but if it's this bad in the 64 person matches, then what are the larger ones like? Is it just me, or is the only real tactic "Push them to their base and camp them"? I've been on both sides of this and I can't say I like it. |

| If it helps, I know my shots on you were clean. As for spawn-pushing, it's odd. It happens a lot to Valor on their attacking Sabo's. I've done it on both Syr Darya and Darien Network, but I don't get why they get pushed. If it gets too bad, change to another spawn point, and rally that one back, and the other PMC should fall back when the action slows down a bit.
Explosive Resist is a pretty huge boon, you can tank APM's and Frags quite a bit more. Valor is odd, since the majority favor Chem Resist first, because you guys gas everything. In Sabo, still watch out for APMs though. We noticed how you guys were breaking through with a guy to tank it, and a Medic just behind, so we've started to double up.
As for the lag, I dunno. I'll get it occasionally, but I benefit just as much, sadly, and I don't notice it often. |

| Cobalt is a viscious teamkiller, and he's quite terrifying. We're like the 3 Stooges out there, misplaced explosions, playing catch with Frags, and with the stabbings and all.
You wrong the monkey, you gon' get shanked. |

You wrong the monkey, you gon' get shanked. Well, if that ain't the pot callin' the kettle a vicious teamkiller. Cobalt is a vicious on teamkillersFixed. Valor lost one of the +5% Exp contracts for Sabotage. The Blue one. Went to Sver. Got more exp in a domination game earlier. How is it decided who has which? Anyone know? Sent you a PSN message, End. |

| Each gametype has it's own cycle. Every win raises that PMC's bar, seen when that gametype is highlighted. The winner is the PMC who fills the bar, they are awarded two contracts, for the duration of the next cycle. Second scoring PMC is awarded one contracts.
Also, totally not my fault. I just have a killer instinct, and you people all look the same to me. |

| I know, Deej. It'll be over soon, you've got the Sabo drill down, I did that almost my entire time on Raven.
Good times tonight, guys. Up to 20 on Valor, might Vet tomorrow, but it'll probably be Sunday sometime. Still 3 vets in about a week, I can live with that. |

| Great games with everyone tonight. It helps so much to have mates along. *whispers* When they're not killing you... I really do have a mic, I swear. lol It works just fine for Borderlands, and MW2. Don't know why it won't work for MAG.
Leadership exp is 98/100. D'oh!
I'll be on Saturday night, but not until late. Around 11 PM. If anyone's still going by then I'm game. |

I believe you, thats one of the reasons I no longer play. A good friend of mine and I bought MAG all excited like, and whenever we would play, I could never hear her and she couldn't hear me (though everyone else could hear me fine.) We tried to figure out what the problem was, but over the course of a month, we never could fix it. |

| Sometime's the mic's just act silly, but a quick DC back to the character select screen has usually fixed it for me, or going into a game has fixed it also.
Cobalt, I want you to know that you have the last kill on me, currently, with that stealth prison shank in Suppression, And I still came and got you up. Teamwork right there.
I'll be on all day, I think. I'll be vetting back once I hit 60, though. Still another 40 levels to go. Too bad I think we're screwed tonight, on the Dingo Radar. |

| The points, I do like 'em.
29 right now, lunch break, then back to the grind. Looks like I'll be in SVER tomorrow, instead of tonight.
Debating on what gun to use. I like our Marksman a lot, Copper Hills is just poorly suited for it. Been using the SE LMG, liiking it a lot, debating on investing in the tier 3 one. Which do you use, Cobalt? |

| Found some spots in Copper Hills, to set up our Marksmen. Highlight so far today was a 2-for-1 headshot. Never killed 2 enemies with 1 bullet before, so I was pretty impressed.
Also, I'm pretty sure my favorite part of the game is shooting down paratroopers. Just feels rewarding.
Double XP is supposed to end tonight, so make it count fellas. 51 right now, probably won't make it to SVER tonight, but definitely within the next few days. |

| Not if you're the paratrooper.
I hope to get in on it, but I'm betting it's done by now. You've passed me already though. lol |
