Not sure if BL2 is on UE3 or some other UE but it sometimes works alright but most of the time even it doesn't work right so I really have to agree with you. Cry

My best guess is that aside from the server side issues,it probably doesn't help that the game is running straight from your HDD.I would bet ISK that if Dust were on a disk,that would alleviate a lot of problems,mostly rendering issues like texture pop in.

MAG was an online only game,and while it wasn't a graphical masterpiece,it was pretty stable as far as framerate is concerned.I know a lot of people had the downloaded copy,but with the servers so close,and the player count lower than Dust,I don't think it mattered at that point.

Or it could just be that CCP is incompetent.

Kinda offtopic but may I ask btw what was the reason behind MAG's downfall? I never played it but I've never heard anything bad about it.

ME2/3? (Can't remember which one or both ran on UE3) Maybe its because my resolution is in "Standard" Resolution (I **** you not, thats what the PS3 says Its at), so I get good frames.

You answered your own question, nobody played it, so the queues for anything other than 32 vs 32 mode was longer than the game. It also got repetative, one faction usually had more players than the rest and therefore easily won all the ****... There were some game breaking bugs that allowed people to hide in the objective and rehack it without being killable... Along with snipers hiding outside of the battle zone up mountains they weren't supposed to get to, sometimes also inside rocks... Because (and I'm about to applaud CCP a bit here) they couldn't be arsed to stop bullets firing through single faced polys.... Just to even out the compliment CCp also have the issue of people hacking objectives from inside walls, needs a fix before everyone learns how to do it.
ZDub 303 TeamPlayers Negative-Feedback 2286	Posted - 2014.03.02 19:40:00 - [19] - Quote MAG was amazing in its early days. It was a solid foundation for a great game. However... the developers never did anything with it and eventually people got bored and moved back to CoD. It was also pretty badly balanced between factions, and the SVER faction just dominated. When you got to max level you could prestige into a new faction, and since there was little incentive later on to play in an underpopulated faction, I think most people just ended up moving to SVER cause it was easier to play with them then against them. But yeah, if MAG had any of the MMO-style depth this game could eventually have, it would probably still be alive and well today. It just lacked depth and people got bored eventually. I think a lot of the people playing Dust are hoping it will eventually become what the early days of MAG were like, but with a real solid development stream behind it as well.
Derpty Derp It's All Gone Derp 63	Posted - 2014.03.02 19:49:00 - [20] - Quote I'm not sure about the faction balance issues, I spent time in all 3 factions and frankly I preferred Raven over SVER because their guns were hellishly more accurate... I just think there were less teams in the other factions, while SVER had massive teams that recruited everyone just to get them to play together... Many matches had the big SVER squads losing to a decent Raven/Valor Squad.

ZDub 303 TeamPlayers Negative-Feedback 2296	Posted - 2014.03.02 19:59:00 - [21] - Quote Yeah, maybe SVER just had better comms? I played raven myself and SVER always felt so OP. Teamwork is OP :(
Derpty Derp It's All Gone Derp 64	Posted - 2014.03.03 18:21:00 - [22] - Quote I'll also give that some of the maps (especially the massive ones) were a bit uneven depending on which side you were assaulting from, but that was wiped out when they eventually allowed all maps to be defended by all teams... I spent a lot of time just running around looking for different ways in... The most OP weapon was the knife and everyone had that xD

On that note, wouldn't it be great if they made a spiritual successor to MAG, set during WWII. Sees prototompers... Sees blueberries start to snipe...
