just a few questions about Ps2


Is it just me or am i not the only one not really liking how the whole capturing works, for bases

for example, you pass a base/area that belongs to the enemy, but see no one down there, so you go down to capture it, there is only the A capture point, which is easy enough, you capture it, and let the second bar build up to capture it.

But if you go to capture a base with 2 or more points by your self, once you capture the first point and go to the second point, the first point that you capture, starts to automatically gets re-captured by who ever area it originally belongs to, even when no enemy is around. It makes it impossible to solo capture that sort of base >.<


Secondly, Is the Actual Retail game included in the Alpha Squad package, or do i still have to buy the game ontop of the Alpha Squad package.

And finally where is this to pre-order/pre-load on steam???????? no new on steam for the game getting released

Re: just a few questions about Ps2


The actual game is free and everyone has access to it for free on the 20th of November.

Alpha Squad is a pre-release offer (available until the 17th of November) which gives you at release extra weapons, some exclusive camouflage customization, an exclusive title ("founder"), 4000 Station Cash (with which you can buy more weapons) and other benefits like a boost to XP acquisition rates.

Overall, I think it's a good offer which is somewhat similar to what a subscription will be but with more benefits for the same amount of money.

As far as you comments on the capture mechanic, I think its a good thing, It promotes some teamwork, sometimes ya just have to bring friends to get shit done.
