[quote name='theredworm']I haven't finished the tutorial and I'm not sure I'll play it much more.[/QUOTE]
I finished the first one and had fun...by the third I was slightly bored.
The online is fun, but I can see it becoming very boring unless you play it with a large number of friends. 2 or 3 friends just won't make up for how overwhelming a good team can be. I only got into 3 games after long waits with matchmaking, and the 3rd game disconnected 5-6 minutes in because of "Hot Time." I guess that's when they update the servers?
4 players were already over level 20, with one guy at 26. Obviously they were much harder to battle, and could easily take out a few lower levels without issue. This is why I don't think the game will last long. The adequately described 'no life's' (if their rank is over 20 the day a game comes out, there's no other way to describe them) will ruin it because of how high their ranks will be in comparison to the casual player.
I think it did say something about rank resets, but I don't see that as being a fix. These obsessed will easily regain an unhealthily high rank in the time period it takes casuals to restart their pursuit of a double digit rank.
You need a setup where their is no benefit to rank, other than experience. I know unlocks keep games going, like Call of Duty has presented, but certain games will not work well when new entrants can't compete with a player 10 ranks above them. And this is only the first day of the Beta.

When I got it to work it took a long time. First the game tries to connect you with players, and then it says something about loading skills, or something to that effect. That takes about as long as the connecting to players does. You can slightly customize your characters appearances with the items you use, so I guess it has to load individual assets.
Once you get into a match, if you stay with it, the next games load much faster, as you stay with your current team.
Considering that, it might not be a bad idea to have a CAG team of some sort, so at least you'd have a team to play and communicate with, while also being able to find games and avoid the painful loading times. I just don't think people would be keen on it.
