MAG general/thoughts

Post by IcKy99 »

so has anyone other than me playing MAG yet?

I just reached level 8 and now im starting to get the hang of the game, so far its living up to the hype, its a fun game , and for some reason i didnt like the beta, but the final product is giving me a good time

what does everyone else think? shall we set up some sort of Racketboy clan? I need some serious people to playwith, im in S.V.E.R. btw

Played the open beta and hated it. I don't know if it's much better than the beta but all I did when I was playing it was wait. Waiting in lobby for some unknown reason for a game to start. Starting the round, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn, running a bit, dying, respawn.

The times I didn't die, I joined a team, the leader was either a screaming jibbering retard that blamed everybody else for his death except himself for walking into open gun fire or a grenade. Or somebody who just didn't do any leading, and made us all die anyway.

All in all, a very boring game, for everybody except the guys who had been playing since the beginning of the closed beta who were all over level 9000 with weapons that can kill across the map in one shot. Boring.

Call me if it gets a PC port; maybe I'll try it then.

Yeah, they fixed all of that.

I mean, unless you're just terrible, but then that's your fault anyway.

But yeah, the weapon and skill balance in this game is very impressive, I'm really glad I can finally choose weapons I like without being at a disadvantage for it.

I'm a level 60 S.V.E.R. Commando, so yeah, maybe we can set something up.

As I recall, the devs commented that they picked the PS3 since the players were of a more mature bent than the 360, so considering the large scope and supposed need for intelligent communication I wouldn't bet on it.

Although I own both consoles, the elitist prick in me couldn't help but think "god I hope not..." for this exact reason.

the only problem with that is less than half of all ps3 owners use a headset :twisted: if they thought it was so important they should packaged one with the game, just like Socom: Confrontation did
