Any site that rates MAG within the next 24 is not credible.

[QUOTE="Unforgiven2870"]when has it been useful in the firstplace?? You already said you hate FPS so you think all FPS games fail.

I don't know about you but SP should be standard in every game, this has nothing to do with my hate for FPS, difference is I would have disliked MAG less if it had a SP compared to now :P

It would be silly of me to think this will become a trend that all devs will start making online only games. I hold SP really REALLY highly, call me ol scool but I could never be as excited for an online only game compared to a SP only game.

They are not credible because some how in a 2-3 week span Zipper interactive totally changed the graphical look, feel and gameplay of MAG they did so much thats its not even the same game.
Come on seriously if any one had played the game in Beta for long enough they could get a pretty good jist of what the final product would be, I expect full retail reviews of this game too match closely with the few early reviews we have.

Um perhaps you should read the review, one of is major complains is its near impossible to get a full 127 members on your team. Well no crap the game isnt even out yet its complaints like that which are simply ridiculous .

I was not sure about this game but bought it yesterday anyways. I must say, its incredible. The best and most fun online shooter ive ever played.djsifer01

Well it should be considering Sony/Zipper skipped campaign in this title, it would completely suck if it fails as an online game since there is no SP to fall back on.

[QUOTE="Ontain"]i've seen reviews of mmorpgs before release. while you might not be able to get the feel of the community you can still review the technical aspects of the game. and MAG isn't an mmo either. so inferring what 256 players in a game (most of whom you'll never see) isn't as hard to do.Nike_Air

And fromtechnical eperience , the game gets completey nuts with all of the air stikes, turrets , introdution of vehicles on top of the high player counts. You have to experience that first hand. You can't really make assumptions on what it is going to feel like. And the good thing about it is that it doesn't take long to get there and doesn't take any time to reach the upper levels.There shouldn't have to be any guesswork involvedwith this game. This isn't an MMO.

MAG is the most underated game ever,people complain about everything on it,and it looks just fine.No lag,graphics looks ok for what the game does,and if you say its boring,please stop playing MW2 right now.

If they do a review largely based on the beta , that's fine if they really did play a lot of it and hit all the modes and dig into actaully spending skill points on things and trying out at least a few of the classes and weapons. That is the nuts and bolts of the game and should be easy to review. But they should test the game out again and see what final changes were made and test it again. Someearly reviews are coming across as early impressions based on limited timewith limited modes that they tried. That makes no sense for a game like MAG with its features and modes. It takes sometime to get there , but it doesn't take a ton of time to level up a character enough and to get into the higher modes to get what the game is about. I have no idea why some are rushing impressions out there and passing them off as reviews with scores.

Only on gamespot do people advocate journalists reviewing betas and demos instead of waiting for the actual final product :?II_Seraphim_II

I'm giving away free kicks to the crotch but you are not allowed to review it until a few weeks have passed and I get a chance to kick you around three or four thousand times. Any takers?

The TC may be on to something; the game has 2 reviews that average 8.5. There is no way the score can be that high.
