MAG: Massive Action Game

[Blindfighter]

I played it a little bit I get disconnected a lot but it looks good for a beta and yeah I am liking it so far.

So there are Connection problems? and how are the graphics and Environments

Annual Qore subscribers (those subscribed prior to the start of the Beta- 9.17) will have access to the Official MAG Public Beta.

The graphics arent bad. They actually looked better than what I expected based on screenshots I saw.

As far as the game goes, I didnt likle it but then again I only played for about 5 minutes. Seemed too hectic and I had no idea what I was supposed to be doing. I guess it could all make more sense if I played more, but I guess Ill have to try that later this weekend

I imagine that if your on a team that only has a few people with mics, could hamper the communication. Have you encountered that?. It was my major concern for the game.

again I wasnt on for long and even then I didnt have a headset with me so I could have been contributing to the problem

 

[KALEL114]

Ok. Well when/if you play some more, let us know. If you could. Thanks man.

Yeah but its a beta so connection problems are going to happen. graphics are not bad I am sure they will get better by time the final game comes out.

sadly from what I played most people don't use mics.

That's one major difference between Xbox and Playstation players Xbox users use their mics and Playstation users don't

its kinda nice that people don't use their mics because I don't have to hear 10 year old screaming and saying **** they shouldn't lol

 

[Superhero 101]

yeah but it helps to know where the other team is when you are playing online

 

[KALEL114]

Especially in this game, where communication is uber important.

That's 100% true.

My roommate plays Halo 3 online and is always talking non-stop to other players and friends and even b****** like a 10 year old which drives me nuts. It's because of people like my roommate that I don't talk on my mic and I mute it when people like that start yelling. Night and day compared to PSN.

When I'm online it's either Warhawk or KZ2. I have my mic but I never speak into it unless I have to or someone talks to me by name.

 

[Superhero 101]

The Only game that i use my mic in is when i am playing Call of Duty 4

 

[Blindfighter]

you know I have not played this beta in a while.

 

[KALEL114]

Well they updated it. Sver is now available and it unlocked 256 player matches.

 

[Superhero 101]

Did the Second Batch ever get released?
