MAG, Hypothectical? Or the real deal?

I would be hyped if I wasn't so discouraged by the 256 player count... It looks too good to be true! I mean, if they can pull it off, ****ing aye, but do you think lag would be an issue? Are they using P2P, because, one player lags, most others would be dragged down as well, and if they use servers, it would cost quite a bit, and with the economy in the state it is, it doesn't seem like a viable option.

Opinions welcome, flaming death isn't.

Yeah the only way to tell is to see when it comes out. But it has a lot to live up to, and it does sound like a challenging feat, but I will like to see them pull it off.

M.A.G. has a lot of people like myself curious as to how will this be pulled off and if its even possible. Its seems so since they mentioned it would with confdence. Hopefully we see much more info at E3.

Is it me? Or does this sound like typical Sony BS? It always seems Sony comes out with things like this. But always ends up horribly done and it becomes a lag fest. Then the game won't have a real patch to fix the issues until a year later.

I've been fooled by crap like this before.

I think it will work just fine

I remember early on hearing that this game would charge a subscription, Is this still the case?

Don't worry thread above says it's free.

Time will tell.

The developer is smart and I'm sure they wouldn't brag about it unless then can deliver. If this was some no name company I would be cautious however Zipper Interactive proved that they know how to create that realistic military war feel in gameplay.

I have good confidence they will pull it off.

I agree with you about sony bull, but sometimes they deliver. I have a good feeling about MAG because the developers are doing most of the talking and what they are saying is logical and in the realm of possibility.

MAG is sort of like Onlive, all of its smoke and mirrors til' I always believed, I mean, Onlive has you streaming video from the clouds! How do you figure that'll work? This has got 256 players, thats gotta be crazy, although this seems more plausible than streaming games from onlive... You must have a pretty rad connection to pull off that.

Last time i checked SONY is NOT the developer...
