I didn't even hear about this game until yesterday when gamespot put up the interview of the developers. I think it sounds amazing and really hope it lives up to what I am now expecting.

What do you guys/ girls think of the idea? Will you get it if the reviews are good?

MEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man, I can't wait! The more I here about this game the giddier I get! So far all the different combat/squad options available are brilliant! I already know which faction I'm joining; the Ravens!!! (I like the all black futuristic gear) I like how they different mission assignments for every squad on the battle field. Thats awesome. Instead of a capture the flag mission in desguise you actually have to escort convoys and stuff while the other team is trying to destroy your convoy while another squad from your team is taking over an anti-aircraft unit while the other team is trying to protect it while a dozen other missions are underway. That's the closest thing we've seen to war in a video game yet! I CANT WAIT!!!!

I am. One thing i dont like about this game so far is the FPS. I understand why they are doing it i read it in GI but still I love socom for that 3rd person shooter and wish zipper would stick to that Genre or at least have an option for it. I think we should start a Petition.

I think it'll be awesome if that many players get in the same match. Hopefully it won't be like R2 where they say it's 60- player and most of the time there ends up being 30 when you actually play a match.

Idk maybe because FPS are the most popular gaming genre and because this game has nothing to do with SOCOM, and because the latest SOCOM was really bad

It'll be good, I'm sure, but the 256 players likely sounds a lot better than it will be. It'll probably be like Resistance 2, where there CAN be up to 60 players, but there never really is.

I agree with this. I'll wait for more info about this game and hopefully get really excited, but so far imo MAG just looks like another first person shooter war game.

I really like the 3 faction war Idea, so yes I'm excited!!! The devs look and sound ligit with what they are trying to do, I'm not looking for to much innovation(it's a FPS there's not much they can do)lol...but I'm looking forward to high quality gameplay and graphics.

IDK maybe because FPS is OVERRATED and OVERDONE. Maybe because all they make is third person shooters is why i am more comfy with them continuing. Maybe it has something to do with SOCOM such as this is their SOCOM when it comes to the PS3 because they are doing new things that no one else has done. they were the first to jump off the PS2 with online gaming with the first SOCOM. The Latest SOCOM was ok...was really not that bad if you actually own it.

Even though I traded in Socom, I thought that it was an enjoyable game...even more enjoyable then KZ2's multiplayer(FLAME SHIELDS ON)lol

I'm not pumped for MAG, but it is something I looking at. I mean ok it has 265 player online but what else, I need more detials on the features and modes and things that not been seen before, not just some average shooter that just so happens to be the biggest online game.

indeed.

what if a 100 of them are snipers/campers... depending how this whole thing will function, i see the game being frustrating for reasons that would normally plauge other FPS games a lot less... i base this on nothing but my opinion :P

MAG is a very cool idea. From the footage I've seen I think it looks like a very fun and intense game... but I'm going to wait a few weeks after its release because since this is a first at such a high amount of players at once... there's bound to be some issues in the first little period.

That's why there are these open beta now, so a lot of issues are fixed before the game is released. Really excited about the new server technology out on the market, hopefully that use it to run this game. And more like it.

im not to sure. i know that it will be hard making this game graphically good because of the scale of the maps and game. and 256 might not be as fun lol imagine how easy you will die. games like killzone 2 get really intense and i know the maps are gonna be huge but every1 is just gonna go on rambo and not be tactical. however i could be wrong and we play it how zipper wanted us 2

it might be the first first person shooter game i get for the ps3, or at least the first shooter i am going to buy since call of duty 4(pc).

althoughthis game is on the bottom of my list.

Mainly because my internet connection is as reliable as an xbox360, so i prefer to get offline games.

also i realise that shooters usually stress me out when i get really into them, where as other games don't, its not overwhelming but then i think whats the point of playing, its not really fun, its just sort of an angry bloodbath to me that satisfies that part of us that wants us to kill random people everyday...

Haha, it's just impossible to get 60 player RANKED matches, and even if you manage to find one, they finish faster then you can breathe.

I'm just hoping a game like this will inspire gamers to get a headset. Because if you can't talk to everyone it'll be hard to coordinate attacks outside of an objective list. You can talk to all your squad mates, but your squad leader can only communicated outside the squad to another squad leader.

I'm interested......not exactly excited, but more just interested and curious. I'm getting kind of frustrated with FPS games lately though. Multiplayer just devolves into a deathmatch, regardless of objectives. Not to say I'm a Rainbow Six fanatic (havent ever played it actually) but I miss having a balance between tactical and all out action gameplay. I'm just worried that MAG will be no different and it will just be everyone playing for their own kill count, kinda like what's happened to KZ2.
