I think issues like this are extremely important ,and you can't get this kind of feeling from anything other than live playing.
Combining a game where
a) The actual way to play isn't obvious
b) The game doesn't tell you the way to play
c) A kind of design that attracts the kind of people who would insult others for not knowing how to play before the game is even out
Just seems like they've really screwed up here.
Why buy a game if your first.. 2? 4? 10? hours of play are going to be awful?

MAG is anything but a Battlefield clone. It has more in common with Enemy Territory/Quake Wars (spawn waves, focused objectives, linear progression etc.) than any game in the BF series.Cday said:
And it's a much better game than Frontlines: Fuels of War.
The new QL is way better than the first by the way, all because of ol' Jeffery.

I really wanted to like this game but Jeff's boredom with it came across and made me bored as a result.
I thought the game came off as really interesting. It was clear they hadn't played it too much, so I wasn't expecting him to be pulling off anything amazing, but the game flowed pretty well. If I didn't have a giant backlog I'd probably break down and buy it, as it stands I'll hold off for a few months and check back in on it.Yoshichan said:I actually got hyped as heck by watching the MAG quick look

You can't really understand why MAG is awesome until you played it for some time, unlocked some better gear and got some leadership experience. On the other hand, if these types of games don't click with you, additional play time won't exactly make your experience more enjoyable.

Yeah, because Capcom Versus games are really boring, especially during high-level play.
Should have been called "Tatsunoko vs Capcom: New age of Boredom"
Right?

Then you'll be glad to know that you can turn the music volume all the way down if you wish.obonicus said:

That it is! I do have to admit though that during the beta, I thought that it gave a small boost to the gameplay when you hit a streak and the music kicked in. It's like playing your very own fragmovie. :lolobonicus said:
Gameplay-wise, absolutely not. Especially on consoles.Massa said:

I'm assuming MAG looks the way it does (visually) because of the ridiculous player count. Really liked the 256 player battles - seems to give a sensation of a chaotic battlefield better than some of other games I've played.
Whoa hey what's the deal with being Captain Defensive all of a sudden
It's not like I was talking dirty about your Mother, or something.

Quite possibly the best way to end the MAG Thing. Jeff gets in as squad leader, admits he would have been a bad squad leader, and immediately has the wrath of Vinny brought down upon him and the wireless connection. Perfect.
Though, to be fair, it would have been really, really fun if anybody on the squad were insane and got angry at the bad leader.

The game has the exact problem I anticipated: No coordination at all.
If people would just stick together, they'd actually do some serious damage. But even on the fuller servers, I don't see that happening.
Not a fault of the game per se, but the confusing structure doesn't exactly help.
Counter-Strike really is the better game!

Their new guy really needs to find his Quick Look legs. He's their Ryan Scott, currently. He's getting there, though! He's more talkative in this one than he was the last.
Not that I'd do any better, though. If it was me, I'd probably be just as quiet.

Love when there's open disdain for a game. Two minutes in
"Well, the server is going down in two minutes so let's stop this Quick Look and try again later."
"Nah, I think we'll be good."
Can't wait to see how the remaining thirty minutes or so go.
edit: :lol :lol :lol Ryan's guess at the plot was great. After the quickening and the reshaping of the Earth, three PMCs are fighting for stem cells.
