MAG was always meh. Sure there were 258 player battles, but it's not like you saw 128 enemies in one place. I've had bigger battles here in Dust, with a fraction of the players per game.

Fix all bugs, add MAG-esque game-modes, and this game would be far more exciting than MAG ever was. Everything that gets added after that is just icing on the cake.

This post must be a joke LOL.

First of all it was 256 players...

Secondly, sure Domination was split into four 32 vs 32 groups, but that's still twice the size of Dust's battles... Plus when you got to the letters all groups were actually within a rather small area, so that's 256 players within a rather small area, smaller than Dust's maps.

First of all, I made a typo, hope you're happy you managed to find it.

Secondly, you can say whatever your opinion was of the game, but don't bullshit me with with your supposed, "facts," MAG's objectives were NOT that close together, and the maps were far larger than Dust's are. I spent more time running in that game than anything else. Even more time running than I do in Dust, which is saying A LOT.

That HMG blistered everything and everything. that holding objectives the shotty was THE weapon. When snipers were actually respected, unlike every other FPS. When the fight didn't end till THE VERY END. Redlining? The enemy came to your door! And holding that last objective was a must cause your spawn WAS at that objective! When proximity chat made the battle more real. where you either fought for VALOR, RAVEN, OR SEVER. VALOR FTW. GG MAG. You will be missed. o7

Beyond the weekly cap-out, Dust will definitely be taking a backseat to Dark Souls 2 when it comes out (for me anyway). Unless 1.8 is the be-all end-all Dust update that makes this game at least as good as Chromosome was with at least a partial infantry respec, Dust is only gonna be a quick 2 day cap-out every week before I set in on DS2. And Dark Souls and Demon's Souls are to the fantasy/action RPG world what MAG was to the FPS world, so I graciously accept your sympathy and hope that the same never happens to the Dark Souls/Demon's Souls servers. (I've platinumed Demon's Souls on two separate PSN accounts, imho it far surpassed Dark Souls.) MAG ~ Raven

Boyo you lost big time: Suppresion - team deathmatch - 32x32 Sabotage - take two point to unlock third - 32x32 Aquisition - take down enemy line and steal their transport - 64x64 Interdiction (DLC) - take three neutral bases and countdown - 64x64 Escalation (DLC) - 3 PMCs versus for take and defend two points (three in map) to unlock fourth - 32x32x32 DOMINATION - take points to unlock poitnts to unlock points to take XD - 128x128 There were thingies like good skill tree, specialization by your skill chose, leveling, veteran leveling, special ingame thingies for leaders like barage, satelite scaning of battlefield, surgical striket, mortar strike or instalation like AAA, sensor arays, hedgehogs, bridges and gates to blow up/repair. Game itself push you to strategy thinking and rewards you for accomplish orders by your leader (sqaud leader, platoon leader, OIC). Boyo plenty of fun, hell even this kill=5 points/take up mate=10points XD You had trophys and medals and ribbons (my best in ribbons were miners ones i dont know how many i presume it was approx 1or2k), you had bunker with towers and some vehicles aswell (APC and Humwee driveable, choppa automatic). That game was just awesome. I pray for one thingie, Sony should take themselves for nose and make MAG2, taht will be WICKED Support - Tactician/Support

They dont make anything about advertisng, what meant smaller palyer base. They busted Zipper, what stop any improvements for game itself. It was exclusiv Sonys fault. Support - Tactician/Support
