I don't think 1 person out of 256 persons will be able to make a single-handed, match winning effort.

Team work will be huge in this game; I can sense it.

There will be some awesome sights in this game, e.g 128 people making a huge front, side by side and then opening fire. That would be mind blowing beyond comprehension.
 
The 'd*ckheads' I was referring to was more the ones who think they are awesome


so it was a personal attack at me! :'(

and also yes i've played (and own) warhawk.....biggest waste of 50 bucks ever!
don't get me wrong i can see how people love it but i'm not really into getting my ass handed to me on a platter like what was happening haha

also to scooter i totally agree....but because it's in 8 people teams, to get certain objectives done it still could easily be done lone wolf style i'm thinking....
but regardless i'm really in a positive frame of mind for how this game is headed!

Nooooooooo, maybe I should've said "The 'd*ckheads' I was referring to was more the ones who think they are awesome...but aren't"

You are awesome. *Kisses*

Yeah, I had the game from the start, so I managed to progress as the game did, I was pretty ****en pwning at it, then I stopped for a while and the rest of the people who played it grew good and it did start to become an ass raping game, as I said too, you REALLY need teamwork, otherwise it's just redundant.
 
The PSN isn't really that bad. What are your issues with it?

Dunno, connection always seems suspect. I use the same router as I do for XBL but can never stay connected for longer than 30 minutes, so I'm not sure what the issue is.

XBL has never disconnected me which makes the problem even more confusing, but this game looks epic and I want to join in!

Could it be like the issue that Scooterb was having?
 
What issue was that?
The bluetooth signal from the PS3 controller was interfering with the router's wireless signal and it resulted in continuous dropouts.

Try playing a game online with the controller plugged in to the USB port and see how it goes. It solved my problems (but I eventually bought another router that works without any issues).
 
I guess for some it could be seen as a bit ridiculous, but really, how many players can single handedly dominate and carry a team over the line?

The 'd*ckheads' I was referring to was more the ones who think they are awesome and just end up ruining it for the team overall, probably the best example of this would be Warhawk(Which you haven't played?), in that game it is cruical to have teamwork to win a game(Not set in objectives and such, just the way it plays with the planes/cars/ground combat gameplay), the huge landscapes and use of Warhawks(Planes) make it very hard for one person to dominate(Trust me, I have tried MANY a time before) and it often comes down to the team that does actually stick together that ends up bringing home the bacon, with an open-world type map system that MAG will use it will be imperitive to have teamwork otherwise it will be the same type of situation in Warhawk where the team that DOES work together will just dominate.Awwww, how sweet:o I will be leader and you shall follow my EVERY order.:cool:

Team Fortress 2 is the ultimate team game and selfish snipers who just sit back getting their kill count up whilst noone TOUCHES THE ****ING CART AND LOSE THE ****ING GAME really don't help the team at all just like people who just run out and kill people randomly. The team that actually plans a few uber runs or has good organised defence at the right bottle necks always beats a team full of highly skilled Rambos (and even individual scores often reflect this).

I haven't read much about this game at all but I hope they use the numbers to make the ultimate team play experience rather than giving Rambos an excuse for trying to kill a bunch of people.
 
Gametrailers Exclusive 256 Dev Diary

This video got released 2 days ago.

Why does it have to come out just before MW2?
For a game that will require a large player base, I predict that it's going to struggle come November 10.

There's some good gameplay videos on this page from E3 that are also worth checking out.

Anyhow, it will be amazing if they pull this off.
 
So is it Pay2Play subscription or just a one time payment through purchasing the game?
No way it will be Pay2Play Kerrbs, 100% guarantee that right now.

You buy the game and that's it.

Don't discount the devs notoriety. Plenty of people know who is developing this game and their history. This game will get enough people to play it.

Not to mention that if it has some great gameplay and the objectives are good enough to keep going I could easily see myself playing MAG over MW2 as I am an objectives type player and changing up objectives(Like Killzone 2) would offer more replayability and longevity to play. Not to say I won't play MW2(Unless they decide not to have region/server selection) but I can see myself choosing MAG over MW2 simply for the game design.
 
MAG will struggle..........(imo)

competing almost head to head with MW2 is just silly

if reviews are consistently high i will buy it for a diff kind of fps, but this game will be lucky to sell 1/4 of mw2 on ps3 alone

i think i might actually pre-order MW2 today....and uncharted 2 :D

Hmm... This could turn out to be an exeptional game but it'll certainly be hard to pull it all off. If MAG gets all the connection/lag stuff fixed, I'll buy it for sure.
 
Console FPS /spew
Might've been worth trying if it were on PC

As I said, there aren't many, but there are a few games with mutiplayer as good as Cods.

Some of these would be: KZ2 (as you said), Halo 3, Counter strike, TF2, L4D, maybe the resistance games (can't really say myself) etc, etc.

which is truely an indictment on MP FPS gaming atm. Games like RtCW, heck even SoF2 were better than the current CoD's 7-8+ years ago.

Still, every PS3 owner on the same level is a pretty cool feature.
Haha, I lol'ed.

I actually think there are more PSN accounts than there are PS3s.

I agree when you say that Massive Action Game is possibly the most generic name ever given to a game.
 
What, is this delay week or something?

MAG delayed til Jan 2010.

I can't say i'm disappointed with all of these delays. It just gives me more time to hammer MW2 during my uni holidays and I won't have the problem of deciding what to play.

I wonder if all of these publishers are getting out of the way of MW2? This monster will be even bigger than GTAIV.

It would make sense that they're dodging MW2. I read that COD4 sold around 14 million copies or something and I think MW2 will top that.

I'm disappointed that it's delayed because I've been looking forward to this game for a while.
