For the Xbox players on PC, have your MNC skills translated well to the beta? Personally, a large majority of mine have, I just have to train my fingers to hit the right skill buttons. I've accidentally deployed numerous times when trying to slam(on Gunner) or Charge(on tank), but otherwise I find i'm able to do the advanced movements (ala the tank's Charge-Jump or the Gunner's slam to keep from being rung out.) and have actually adapted fairly well. It's going to be a pain getting all of my custom classes back, though. That's a huge reason why I keep getting curb stomped, i'm sure. So, how bout everyone else?
I believe mine have. I played other fps games on the computer competatively so that may be why, but man I love this game.
My biggest problem on pc is using the right skill in a panic on the keyboard, I am getting there but still doing exactly as said above, deploying instead of slamming or throwing an ice mine instead of a flak ball, outside of that I am finding everything else great.
I'm playing with a 360 controller so it's all the same to me, aside from not having my custom classes. And I guess it doesn't help that I haven't played in weeks. I felt like an idiot for the first few matches but finally settled into a groove and unlocked my first custom.
I'm trying to sort out buying my turrets and skills a lot faster like I could before but other than that it's just the freestyle aiming I have to get control of.
upgrading skills i gotta remember the numbers, i gotta change the blue skill to my mouse and red, and then put change weapons on Q i should be ok then... yellow can go on something else, i rarely use a yellow skill....
I really wish I still had my gaming mouse(s), but one was stolen, and the other broke. I'm using a crappy little logitech one that game with a laptop.
People on the PC need a chance to learn the game yet, which is why I'll still be playing on the 360 for a while yet. The new PC players don't know all of the fun tricks yet, and they need a chance to catch up to the console players for now. I'm sure it'll be much more balanced around the time the game officially launches.
I'm finding I'm playing much better on the pc version. I knew all the tricks but had poor aim with the thumbsticks, now I have near surgical aim. I'm finding I'm dominating most of the time. I'm sure that will change once pc players learn the ropes and then surpass me with better twitch skills. I'll enjoy my time on the top while it lasts.
I'm honestly not an experienced MNC player on the xbox (xbox RRoD soon after getting the game), but my most recent shooters I have played were on the consoles. Luckily I used to play a lot of shooters on the PC, So honestly I think my skills have transferred pretty well. My sniper accuracy seems to be better, and that's with my computer not seeming to run this beta to well
