I applaud the developers for trying to recreate a real war type feel, with 256 people at once, that sounds nuts btw, but shouldn't this be a NO-RESPAWN game ? Or at least have the option for that. That many heads respawning sounds dumb. Zipper did the socoms, and they had it, so i woul think mag should have it too. Your thoughts ?

sure you go do that and be dead first and wait for the other 255 people to die and have fun waiting a very long time.
Lol, thats true. Mabye they could have smaller no-respawn matches. They're so much more intense and realistic. People just run around like idiots when they know there's no real penalty for dying, they're just gonna spawn back up anyways. And no, dont tell me to get socom, that game sucks.
[QUOTE="417alum"]Maybe when you die you would earn points and the chance to watch or quit...(Score not affected) Good idea?donmega1
yep, also maybe a death limit? like 5 lives or somethin... Eh....That would make a long game...My idea is perfect because you would die, but have the chance to join another game. Yet if your friends were playing with you, then you could watch them in the match. I like my idea better :P Yet yours is good too ;)
Zipper knows what they're doing. You can't have no respawns because that'll be retarded. The nubs will just run in and die and then quit when they have to wait for over 100 people to die.
It probably won't be instant spawn and if it is, who cares.
Maybe have punishment for each death you have? Like every 3 deaths you have to wait for waves instead of one so that equals 1 minute. Another 3 deaths you have to wait one more wave, so you have to wait 1:30 minutes. And it goes on on until the game is over.
I assume it will be a 5 to 10 second re spawn when you die, that way the battle will go smoothly and give each side an advantage whether your guarding a fortress or your working as a team to take over. I'm sure there will be a time limit for X team to take over and secure the area of Z team. I'm sure there will be a match where there is not re spawn, but on another server; such as, 64 vs 64 or even less. If im correct isn't the 128 vs 128 the main server while a bunch of smaller matches are going on or every server will try and fill 128 vs 128??
Operation Flashpoint sounds and looks much better, imo. If the gameplay delivers, this game will be a monster. Unlike farcry, which looked and sounded good too, but played like s**t.

It seems like the penalty for running around like an idiot will result in you losing strategic points which become spawn points. So playing smart will help prevent that from happening.

I would not buy that game if it was like you guys are thinking I want to die then respwan within 30 secs or its a no buy for me.
Well, we know from the E3 demo that MAG has respawning, but in waves at certain captured points, and I don't think that there is a respawn point for the ATTACKING team until the first point is captured, but correct me if I'm wrong.
Operation Flashpoint is the shooter on my radar now. Idk why Ofp isn't getting more hype. Mabye because it's gonna appeal to more of an older age group ? It looks way more gritty and realistic than anything, besides Arma 2 on pc. I'm looking foward to playing hardcore mode on co-op campaign, with 3 of my buddies. If the gameplay delivers, this game gonna be a monster. Anyone interested, check out info on the codemasters Ofp site. I'm really hoping this game is gonna be raw. Not like farcry 2, which looked and sounded good, but played like a pile of s**t. I hate getting my hopes too high for games and getting let down though.

Operation Flashpoint is really good on the PC, any computer can run it, and if you have a high end one. You proably get 100+ troops fighting eachother. Epic battles, there is an ingame map editor so you can add as many troops as your computer can handel. Pick up this game, it is only $10 --->$5 Not much of an online community anymore but the map editor is great.

Non respawn? That is a joke. With huge maps and battles, such a thing would take forever. Sure it adds realism and is taken from the whole Socom thing but look at the downside. If it were a non respawn, people would just camp. Camping is pretty bad in games as it is.. Not to mention the fact that MAG has huge maps.. That would make it even worse.
Im sure the option is going to be in there, but non respawn is really no fun. The only time I can really see that being used is during clan games or something. Regular jo shmoes will probably play the respawn anyways..
I meant Operation Flashpoint 2 : Dragon Rising. Isn't the first op from like 10 years ago ? I think mag is gonna be too chaotic anyways, with THAT many ppl running around, unless the map is truly massive.
