The cover system REALLY needed an upgrade, getting in and out of cover is a complete mess and since the enemies love to spam grenades it gets annoying.
Also why doesnt it scale? If there are only 2 players dont give me objectives that are still challenging for 4 players. When we have to assassinate the guys with the shields its usually game over
EDIT: I really dont like how "A" does everything, if a teammate is down near a beacon it is a mess to revive him.
Well I don't know how it is with the xbox, since I play it on PC, but I've had
no problem with the cover system. Press space to go into cover, walk away from cover to leave it. Press forward and space to jump or slide forward, left or right with space to move from one piece of cover to another...took me a few tries but then it worked soooo smoothly.
The one issue I've had is when interacting with a computer or trying to revive a teammate while you're close to a wall...shame there's no 'interact' button like 'e' but oh well.
As to the scaling...you're quite right, it
should scale. That said, I had great fun being a Turian sentinel and fighting together with a Drell Vanguard on our own, we managed to beat several maps on our own! :-D (admitedly it was a bronze challenge, but still...) That was some of the most fun I've had, really brutal.
So with all that said...it's pretty obvious that I like the multiplayer. It's challenging, fast-paced and require teamwork to pull off. It's a little annoying with the packs for unlocking things, I've unlocked the same guns maybe five times each when I've wanted to try being a Salarian or Quarian...but that's supposed to be fixed in the retail.
Instead I've been having fun as the Turian Sentinel with the viper sniper rifle and a shuriken pistol that sees nearly no use. Got to love overload, and warp is not so shabby either, that combined with the Turian being such a good shooter (A turian is a slightly slower then average weapon-platform, apparently) I can overload and then headshot Centurions and nemesis' with a nearly ridiculous speed. :-D
