For those of you who don't have MAG, the free client is available on PSN, the only draw back is a cap at level 8. (Not a big deal, kill somebody and pick up their weapon) I believe that the full game (removal of the level cap) cost $10 or $15, worth it in my opinion, maybe not in yours.
Please try not to post anything long or off topic that will make it difficult to maintain this list, as I would like it to be easy for me to update, and easy for everyone to access. Lets keep the server downtime bloody and bullet filled Dust Bunnies!
To any GM's that come across this - please, don't give this a lock. I'm only suggesting this as something to do during the server down time, as a means to grow ourselves as a community of Dust 514 players, even when we cannot play the game that we all wish we could. When the servers are up full time (maybe not until release?) we wont need something to do during the downtime and this will be irrelevant. But until then, I would like to maintain this if it is something the players would like.
I would like to propose, that us Dust Bunnies that would like to work on strategy and tactics, or even those that want to kick back and shoot 'em up, should spend the down time between weekends, battling in MAG. It might be a nice way to build ourselves as a community, and as a force to be reckoned with, just until we have a party system in Dust and the servers are up all week long.
I would like to create a list of players that would like to gather in MAG, and what faction you would like to play on. I will maintain a list of these players, and I will update the list every day, or every other day, depending on my schedule.
Information I would like to gather - PSN Name, Faction, and player type: "Casual" (Just play for fun, not to concerned with winning/losing) vs "Hardcore" (Every move counts, shouting orderers and taking control of valuable areas). If you are a player who isn't a "hardcore" player, but you try a bit harder than just a "casual" player, list yourself as strategic.
Format = (Merc Name) - PSN: (PSN ID) - (Playstyle)

i know this will be locked but Mag was a great game. it sucks that they went under. I dont think anyone will play mag because there is not that many people playing it now. I login from time to time hoping that i can get into a 256 match but there is not enough to get a good 24. I hope dust can get their servers upto atleast 256 on one map. |

Well, until it gets locked - which I don't think it will, as I'm suggesting this as a means for the community to gather when Dust is not available, not as an alternative - I would like to maintain a list. Would you like to be on the list of players and possibly grow both the Dust and MAG communities? Or would you rather just tell me that this is going to get locked and be on your way? |

So you can continue to act as part of the problem, or you can help out and bring life back to an amazing game. |

I 100% and went Platinum.I played for and with all the best clans in that game.I have over 100,000 kills between my 4 alts......
Part of what problem?A problem for this game? or a problem for a dead one?
The leaderboards for that game dont exist anymore wtf is the point ?Why dont you do something constructive and start a thread on how they can work on the squad map commands on this game...to be better than they were on that one.
Godamn Ive lost all repect I used to have for you guys....remind me of a bunch of old has beens mucking about at some worn down bar... |

Because right now, all of the issues I can think to list have already been listed. I post suggestions and complaints when I have them, but right now I don't have any that wouldn't be redundant. So, instead, I proposed a way for us to gather as a community and practice together, and share some enjoyment while the game we have all mainly gathered for, is unavailable. But, instead of being outgoing, and saying "Hey, yeah, I would like to be involved in some week day fun with other Dust players if thats possible" you come here and say "MAG is dead, give it up". That doesn't seem like a very good attitude to me.
Regardless of whether or not this game is very "active", it doesn't matter. I'm not trying to revive MAG. It just so happens that MAG is as close as you can get to Dust as far as team play and tactical warfare. I am simply trying to help us grow as a community, and you seem bent on shutting me down. |

Look, thats 5 people now that have said they like MAG, and would play it if it were more active. So lets get it active! Between server downtimes for Dust, lets gather there! Hell, even if we can only play Sabotage, we can start working together as a team. 32 person platoons will be nice practice for when we get 24 vs 24 in Dust! Come on people!

Anyone who can still access the Sony forums and look me up on the leaderboards tell me if I am still in SVER or not. XD It's been a while. Close to ten vets myself though. I think I have seven actually. I'll try to pick up a copy if I can find one, and spare the cash. Usually everyday I have to ask myself did I eat today? Pay-check to pay-check is just my situation. |

Touche good fellow, +1. However, this is about playing MAG... in the absence of Dust. MAG is going to provide large scale warfare and team play more so than BF3 will, as such I am gathering information for MAG. Better practice IMO, especially for those of us with the horrendous input lag in BF3.. it's unplayable for me.

I know the "pay check to pay check" life. Thats how my mom is right now, but we're managing. Sucks when I have stuff to pay for and I can't slump it off on her, I'd feel like a douche lol. But you're added to the list, I'll put you on SVER for now :) Would you say you're casual, strategic, or hardcore? And you can actually download the client free on PSN (MAG Trial), I bet if you already have the character on your account it would know you bought the game? |

Hm. Let me put it this way -- you know during the [beta] when you started seeing people sabotaging big time by gunning in light straight to the back? I helped create that tactic. XD No seriously though I'm not hardcore on much of anything really anymore. Strategic? Yeah sure. I know you feel too though. Life is a pain at times. |

I knew about it before it came out, but I didn't pay much attention til shortly before I got my PS3 - which I literally bought, for MAG, and MAG alone lmao. |

Yeah. My friend and I both were in it, but he was really into it like I am with Dust. He played more though of the [beta]. I never got into the forums at that point though. Busy with other games at the time.
Man though did I love going into the back of bases and blowing everything up amassing large points to no end. Also having a buddy means you can revive one another, and kill most squatters sitting in the back alone. Plus it was fun blowing up all of zones enemy equipment, running over to the zone next to us, and blowing everything up again! Why? Because, it meant the enemy on "our" side would rebuild everything for us to blow up.. Again! BOOM!. Man did I **** people off. |

Used to play domo almost exclusively but the way things have gone I've not been on much recently. PSN ID is Taz-666 and my main account is on SVER as part of the RIP clan.
On a side note it looks like a few of us will be making our presence know in Dust once we get some sort of grouping option available. |

Ahaha dude thats awesome :) I was never really a "top tier player", but one game I just rocked. I think it was on the Raven Dom map, I went something like 68/5. Ran around all game just picking up weapons off dead people. So much exp that game :D and the revives, oh man did I ever have a ton of revives :) |

I have this FPS problem.
Now that I have gotten into the rhythm of playing Dust, when I try to play MAG I can't get into the rhythm.
I can't FPS hop without losing the skills to the previous ones. After a few hours I can get back into the flow of a game, but it is quite the hassle. |

Awesome, I'll add you to the list as our first hardcore player :) Looks like I might need to make myself a SVER character.

Being supportive always feels good, when you know you may have played a major role in victory with 30 or 40 pick ups :)

Nah, you should hop around, we can get ourselves a team of dusters to dominate MAG monday - thursday, and we can all come back to Dust when the servers pop up on thursday :)

Be prepared with a mic, and spec medic skills first. You'll pick up tons of EXP reviving people, probably more than you will killing people at first. What's your info, I'll add you to the list. |

Works best on valor, their shotguns have the tightest spread I believe. But right now I think Raven and SVER are the most active PMC's, not positive about that though.
Edit: Be warned though, most of the matches right now around only 32 vs 32, the bigger game modes don't queue enough people that often, though it does happen. I sleep really late however, so I might just be missing the peak times. |

Go on the PS Store, search MAG. You can download the trail, don't know if it will give you access to your old character, but you can play the game up to level 8 (unlocks all game modes non "DLC" game modes). Not really that big of a deal to be capped at 8, you can just pick up a better weapon after you kill somebody. If you decide to buy the game I think it's $10 or $15 on the PS Store, and I think it all runs on the same server.
Sha Kharn Clone wrote:Im not in the US either er are tere differnt servers ? or haz i gota live with bad ping ? As far as i know, it's all on one server, but I am not positive about that. Ping shouldn't be to bad, as the servers don't see that much traffic.
Edit: @Sha I'm going to list you under Raven for now, if you pick a different faction, let me know and i will update it. I'm also going to list you as casual, though if you consider yourself to be strategic or hardcore I will change it. |
