Is MAG A Flop Now That Its $29.99?

And the people dogging the game have not played the game besides the beta. Its actually a great game. But most people like run and gun instead of tactics

I wanted to get into this but I was busy with SOCOM and Uncharted 2. Do people play with mics in MAG?wstfld

I wanted to get it on release but couldn't afford it. Its cheap now and I still want it but theres no point in me getting it. Going away for 3 months soon.

I'll get it when I get back, I'm looking forward to team based play rather than the usual lone ranger thing.

MAG flopped in the beta. It's like a poor man's imitation of Battlefield...

Besides, did anybody really expect a game who's only selling point/claim was "256 players online!" to succeed?

I was under the impression that MAG was a success. Maybe not a monumental success, but it hosts a large community of players.

MAG was a complete flop ever since it came out inmy opinion :|

MAG is an awesome game worth mt 60

It should have launched at that price. I made a thread about that a while ago. It's essentially one mode of play that is contingent on too many other factors out of the player's control. Just single player is worth $60 but I don't feel like that about just multiplayer.Chaos_Bladez

I rented MAG and thought it was a lot of fun. Besides the above reason, I didn't keep it because it didn't have custom soundtracks and the online wasn't very stable; it was sometimes very hard to just get the game started.

ehhh game was generic, I didnt like the gameplay and the way it felt, i did like how there was no auto aim though, but i like BFBC2 much much more.

I love MAG more then MW2 but its not nearly as addicting and the gun and explosions graphics dont look that great. Although the ground, walls, and character models look better then MW2.

I dont play it anymore since I accidently deleted my raven character =(

After reading this topic and checking out the link I decided to go to my local gamestop and grab a copy to try it out. They are still selling it at 49.99. I checked gamestop.com last night and it was listed at 29.99 but I just checked when I got home and its back up to 49.99. Any ideas on when this is supposed to take effect? I am interested in trying it, but I am on a budget atm so I don't want to spend 50 bucks for it to come down to 30 a week later.

I feel 50/50. On the negetative side, Zipper Should've focused SOCOM 4 much more, but the good thing is that people can now try this game out.

if you actually bought the game, you would know it has a quite large community. i like the game.

You should've at least read the posts in that thread. Someone even pointed out that this was a 1-day sale(or until 1,000 copies were sold) on Gamestop. Unless it's getting an official price drop soon, you won't be able to get it for $30.

MAG isn't really 29.99...It's a online Gamestop deal. In the local stores it's still 44.99.. I called them and checked...Young_Charter

I only recently played in a clan. Game is so much fun if you have cool teamates. It helps better gameplay wise too. Sensor Jammer rocks!

Is it really that bad of a game?

I did the math. Each seperate screen on a 1080p television would be 4 by 7 pixels.

It should be sold for 25.6 dollars

Well, if you take into account that many call MAG a "generic" shooter and that other people say that FPSs these days are a dime a dozen, you can infer that MAG's price should be calculated by dividing the number of total players by 12 and then multiplying that number by $0.10.

So...

• MAG (256) / 12 = 21.3333333 = 21.4
• 21.4 x 0.10 = 2.14

Therefore, we can infer that $2.14 is the appropriate price for MAG. 8)

Haha, this is like that picture I have saved in my computer:

Yeah but that was a temporary pricepoint, it went back up. The game is awesome and the more people the better especially with this game. When your squad only has 4 people on it you wish that anyone would at least join even if they're not that good (obviously as bait, mwahaha...)

I hated the beta, thus making me never want to play the full game.

I'll probably pick it up once I get my Ps3 back.

Why the bump?

Seriously, I gotta agree... Why did you revive a thread from two months ago??? I don't mean to sound like a cop, but this kind of thing is generally frowned upon around here unless you had a good reason (I saw an ancient thread revived but it was about predictions for games to be released and it really WAS entertaining to read what had actually come to pass after all the time gone by). There doesn't seem to be any point to your revival other than to tell people off... the trouble with that being, that there wasn't anyone around.

In the future if you would like to discuss the game or it's competition on the market make a new thread... revivals can be misinterpretted as intentionally being obnoxious to see who bites, or "trolling".

Capiche?

It should be sold for 25.6 dollars

LOL why'd that noob bump a 2 month old thread!?!

The beta turned me off 100%.

Price has nothing to do with it, but the game really never reached top tier status in the first place.wooooode
