That game was like crack I could NOT stop playing it.
I didn't have 5000 hours like some people, probably 1500 but still, it was literally the only game
I played for almost three years. I didn't play it consistently and when it died I hadn't played it
for about a year.
All we need is a MAG2 on PS4 with better clan support, better hit detection, no hard freezes,
better servers, more maps and more overall stability in domination and we would have the
best FPS on the market.
No FPS has quite done large-scale battles like it, it's bringing back great memories just thinking of the game.
The way the battles developed was unique too. Everyone remembers attacking the non-bridge map of aralkum mechanical,
it was awesome once you broke through that bunker line and all fought over that one depot.
Comms was awesome too, listening to people ***** and moan was great,
My only regret was not having a job to be able to buy a good capture device and film more than I did.
The movement in that game was also spot on. Triangle needs to be nerfed if it has a sequel though,
and maybe they should finally un-nerf X!
I've never had more in a game and with a community, the forum posts were actually times in my life that I consider
memorable, even if they didn't happen in real life. I've been more entertained on those forums than from any movie.
I had I think 4,500 posts by the end of it!

So what do I think of DUST? Well it's slower than MAG, I keep trying to move like it's MAG but the movement just isn't
up to scratch, nor is the clunkiness of jumping (or not jumping) over things. The sound effects and music are better,
maybe they're just different but DUST gets a thumbs-up in the sound department from me.
The maps should be smaller and the battles more condensed. MAG had no matchmaking but everyone had the same amount of health. Lag was the main problem with MAG. In DUST bad players can group up, spam proto and tanks and snipers and take you down. In MAG a scrub corp was a scrub corp, no matter if they all had LMGs and 12c armour they would get redlined if they lacked gungame. In DUST the numbers hold your hand and make you superman VS starter fits and new players.
DUST is fun but it's no MAG. It's better than CoD by far and for me, more enjoyable than any Battlefield game.
I'm interested in planetside 2 on PS4 though. I'll wait for reviews, that will decide if I buy a PS4 or not.
