IRISH BULL Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 is there a difference between mag, and mag shadow wars? they seemed to make a distinction between the 2 of them in the interview Yea, I got that too. I always thought that the official name was MAG: Shadow Wars. http://www.ps3center.net/news/2696/mag-to-have-a-subtitle/ The gameplay looks intersting also. http://www.gametrailers.com/player/48644.html Quote
DK_MaluNYMets Posted April 30, 2009 Report Posted April 30, 2009 I want to say I can't wait but I said the same thing for Confrontation. lol Quote
BigMoneyNacku Posted April 30, 2009 Report Staff Posted April 30, 2009 As much as I want to get hyped for this game, I can't. I have about as much faith in Zipper as I do in /6. So until I get a chance to rent it and check it out, I'll be holding my breath. :-X Quote

Just saying... ;D LOL I just wonder why a company with so much experience in creating Third Person Shooters, switches and makes a FPS, without even the option of using TPS, or at least from what I have read. Thats disappointing IMO, but I think I will at least rent it and see what its like. Does anyone know if they plan on using dedicated servers? With that many people I would hope so. Quote

IRISH BULL Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 The preview articles from Joystiq and Destructoid sound friggin' awesome. They only got to play a small portion of the game, but they sounded very impressed. http://www.joystiq.com/2009/04/29/joystiq-hands-on-mag/ http://www.destructoid.com/preview-mag-130125.phtml Quote

Hopefully if they do that, they give us the option, for example a clan can buy or rent its own server, but there will have to be some SONY dedicated servers. Quote

SEQUOYAH Posted May 5, 2009 Report Staff Posted May 5, 2009 Here is my only question. It sounds like there is NO clan structure. You are just put into a battle with some fucking KID that is a commander. No clan structure...NO PLAY!!! Bastards!! Quote
IRISH BULL Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 Latest interview, 12 minute vid: Huge MAG Reveal: Gameplay, Mechanics, Online Details! Quote
Prime-VR Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 SEQUOYAH ]Here is my only question. It sounds like there is NO clan structure. You are just put into a battle with some fucking KID that is a commander. No clan structure...NO PLAY!!! Bastards!! That's what I got from this last interview. Sounds like a cool concept but doesn't sound like something I will be for. :-\ Quote
SnowBud Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 Wow a teen rating, no blood and guts they say :-\ Wants to appeal to a large audience, kids obviously is the large audience they want to appeal too by not making this game with an M rating. You know he says they have to be able to fill up those absurdly large rooms. Boo Combined with the little clan support and FPS, I have too say I for one am not impressed. Quote
SEQUOYAH Posted May 5, 2009 Report Staff Posted May 5, 2009 I mean, playing these types of games is about playing with your friends from your clan. This is bull shit. Quote

Maybe I missed something, but I didn't hear whether or not clan structure was involved. They didn't mention it one way or the other. Wow a teen rating, no blood and guts they say :-\ Wants to appeal to a large audience, kids obviously is the large audience they want to appeal too by not making this game with an M rating. You know he says they have to be able to fill up those absurdly large rooms. Boo As to the teen rating, I have to agree. With a game that big, you have to be able to open it up to more people. Its the same reason a lot of movies go for the PG-13 as apposed to R. SEQUOYAH ]Here is my only question. It sounds like there is NO clan structure. You are just put into a battle with some fucking KID that is a commander. No clan structure...NO PLAY!!! Bastards!! From what I heard, you have to prove yourself before your even allowed to be in those positions. So if it is some kid, hopefully he won't be some little douche bag. The different radio frequencies sound pretty cool. The only time I've even played a game with a dedicated frequency is in KZ2. It definitely helps. I like that there is gonna be a beta test. That "should" answer a lot of questions about this game. Cause I have to admit, it almost sounds impossible what they are promising. Quote
SnowBud Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 What I meant more or less was them talking about placing you with groups of 8. Are these my 8 friends? I doubt it. It sounds like an auto-match system to me. Which means no clan support IMO. Or even better what if 16 of my friends or clan is together, they split us up among two different 8 man fireteams on completely different areas on the map. Maybe I'm missing something and it is just speculation but to me it seems there's 3 factions, you choose one and you get auto-matched into a game with players around your skill level and depending on experience and wins a certain people are selected by the game to lead the way So me and my 5 friends are playing and lets say its a party system, we then enter a game together matched with 2 more people, and because little Joey spends all day playing in rooms he runs the show for us? Screw that. Like I said I am just speculating but this is what I gathered from their comments. Quote
Guest REBORNevilloki Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 This game is going to change the world of FPS' and video games, it looks awesome and the whole aspect of running different units under one clan is sick. I'm pretty sure many clans will have to merge to keep up with all the squads. Quote
SEQUOYAH Posted May 5, 2009 Report Staff Posted May 5, 2009 Thats DEFINATELY what it sounds like. Its an auto join respawn all damn day long. I mean, its a cool concept, but why not form clans, and those that aren't in a clan, can auto join the big picture. Especially from Zipper, those guys should know better than anyone else. Assholes. Sorry, I was really amped up about this, and it looks cool, but without the clan base, friends...it sucks. Quote

pito Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 I can't wait for this game. It's gonna open alot of doors. Quote
Outlaw__Rebel Posted May 6, 2009 Report Posted May 6, 2009 There's way more players that aren't in clans. Like in Socom if your not in a clan it isn't as much fun. If they can improve the experience for that guy that doesn't belong to a clan to where he feels apart like your in a ?clan?. Then that would change everything. So instead of a clan how about just a bunch of friends. I see there point. Quote
