[Uradna tema] MAG

[sejmon]

"MAG Escalation Beta Gameplay "... na grafiki bi se lahko malo bolj potrudili.

[Raptor90]

Kaj je sploh ta nova beta ?

Ne grafika ni problem, problem je gameplay, orožija so premalo močna, gameplay prehiter če bi se vsaj malo po BC2 zgledovali, ker to da ga z 3/4 magazainom ne ubijem je kr grozno. Jaz se kr sniper klase držim ker za assault tu nimam živcev. Sicer pa lahko kdaj skup odigramo imam celo slušalke.

[Bessie]

Testirajo se novi načini igranja za klane, nove mape, druge novosti, ena, ki bo te dni vpeljana je nakup dodatnega slota za lik s katreim boš lahko 30 dni igrla v drugi frkciji ne, da bi izgubil prejnega. cena 0,9$, po enem mesecu lahko podaljšaš oz. kasneje ponovno aktiviraš dodatnega.

trenutno igram pri valorjih 37lvl, ko končam lvl 60, grem še na SVER, potem bom pa videl, kje bom na koncu pristal. Igranje pri valorjih se kar bistveno spremini od npr Raven-ov, kjer sem že prišel do Veterana.

Orožja si nadgradiš skupaj z napredovanjem po lvl-ih, meni se zdi, da so še preveč učinkovita, ubiješ ga zato ne, ker ga ne zadaneš

[Raptor90]

Nevem vseeno trdim da je MAG preveč zahteven, malo sem primerjal in pri BC2 nerabiš toliko nabojev nabutat v sovraga da krepne. Druga pa kar je moteče je ta nepotrebni airstrike pa ročne granate ki pokajo in delajo škodo kot da bi nekdo streljal z 88mm flak topom. Čisto nepotrebno je zapleten sistem. Imam občutek da je razni supoort v igri samo za določene igralce medtem ko v bc2 vsakdo poizkusi kar mu leži, jasno je da dobijo ta boljši z boljšo opremo večj killov medtem ko se jaz "jačkam" z fn2000 dam gor hologram optiko, nič bolje, dam acog da koga zadanem je sreča ker vsi skačejo kot pri halo 3. Da se folk naskakuje z RPG grenatami je itak v vseh FPS-jih niti ru ni izjema.

[Bessie]

Primerjat MAG z BC2 nima smisla.

Na uradnem forum lahko najdeš nasvete glede uporabi različnih orožij teb bi morda prav prišla tale tema..

[Raptor90]

Pa vendar sta obe igri a) fps, b)arkadi c)sodelovalni torej imata precej skupnih lastnosti, pa vendar se v gameplayu razlikujeta. Mogoče pa sem zaj.... da sem vzel Ravena mogoče bi bil SVER z Ak-ji boljši.

[Bessie]

Raven frakcija je po mojem mnenju najtežja za napredovanje, ko pa dosežež enkra 40+ lvl se ti pa odpre, Valor niso nič posebnega, SVER sem pa ravno zaradi "domačih orožij prišparav za na koncu in naj bi bili tudi najlažji za igrat in najtežji kot nasprotnik.

Bistvena razlika me igram je število tistih, ki morajo med seboj sodelovati, lahko imaš en odličen platoon pa če so ostali kure brez glave na koncu izgubiš.

Ko nadgrajuješ orožja se odloči za eno osnovno orožje in ga izpopolni, pripravi si različne kombinacije za napad, za obrambo, za popravljanje objektov, z miočnejšim ščitom, s šibkejšim pa bolj gibljivim... in potem glede na bitko izbereš primerno konfiguracijo.

[Raptor90]

Na assault pa sniper najbolj stavim, slednji je celo lažji, ker imaš semi auto puško pa še recoil ni hud.

MAG 2.0

Everyone here at Zipper Interactive is extremely proud to announce that our next downloadable MAG update, MAG 2.0, is not only our biggest and most important patch yet, but also one that’s less than a month away!

That’s right! All the feedback and suggestions you’ve made from countless hours spent playing our new MAG Beta program will pay off in the retail version of MAG in a very big way. We’re calling it “MAG 2.0″ for a reason and it’s because of the sheer number of fantastic new additions, including:

* PlayStation Move support

* An increased level cap that goes to level 70

* A revamped Skill Tree that allows for the deepest character customization and specialization ever found in a first-person shooter

* A brand-new in-game economy that lets you earn credits to spend on weapons and items from the also-new “Supply Depot”

* Our useful “Clan Deploy” feature that enables clan leaders and officers to queue up to 128 of their fellow clan members into a single game

* A “MAG News” page that brings players up to date on all the latest happenings the moment they log in

* A multitude of updates that refine existing weapons, maps, and vehicles

* Important bug fixes and other enhancements that streamline the overall experience

We’ll have specifics as to what else is in the MAG 2.0 patch as we near its release. Oh, and before we go, don’t forget to keep an eye out for additional news in the near future regarding our next DLC pack, which includes our upcoming Escalation game-type and nine all-new weapons.

We hope that you’re just as excited to get your hands on MAG 2.0 as we are to give it to you, and we’ll see you again real soon!

[Bessie]

Od 28. septembra dalje

Now is a great time to start playing MAG once again too — as we inch closer to the release of the MAG 2.0 downloadable patch. Packed with stellar new features, like PlayStation Move support, a deeper and more advanced skill tree, and an in-game economy system, MAG 2.0 takes an already-addictive game and makes it even more so! Plus, we’re also working hard on the release of our next DLC add-on (due sometime after 2.0) that includes our super-hot three-faction game mode “Escalation” and nine new weapons!

[Bessie]

Patch MAG 2.0 je on-line, cca 500MB in ga pravkar vlečem dol... edino move ne bom moral uporabljati, ker sem kamero doniral v znastvene namene za izdelavo mikroskopa in čakam na poštarja, da mi dostavi novo!

MAG Escalation DLC Coming November 2

posted by Jeremy Dunham, October 28, 2010 10:00 am

This past summer, many of you took part in our latest MAG Beta program to help us test out a number of new features slated for our recently-released update, MAG 2.0, and future DLC. Thanks to your devotion, we gathered a surplus of fantastic data that allowed us to make MAG a better game… and we’re not done yet!

Though the MAG 2.0 patch has been available since the end of September, the DLC portion of the beta has remained unreleased — but not for too much longer. Starting November 2, our three-faction gunplay whirlwind, the “Escalation” Add-on Pack, will be available for download from the PlayStation Store for $9.99 (US)!

But we aren’t stopping there.

To celebrate the release of the Escalation DLC, we’re offering two other deals to existing and would-be fans. Check this out:

* Interdiction Add-on Pack: Now $4.99 (US); reduced from original price of $9.99 (US)

* MAG Starter Kit: $14.99 (US): An almost $30 (US) value and everything new MAG users could want: Interdiction and Escalation Add-on packs, a 30-day trial for MAG character slots B and C, six official MAG PS3 avatars that sport Raven, SVER, and Valor characters and badges, and three dynamic PS3 themes (one for each PMC).

If you didn’t get a chance to play it in our MAG Beta, the Escalation add-on supports up to 96 players, or one 32-man platoon for each PMC, as a separate in-game mode that pits the forces of Raven, SVER, and Valor against each other at the same time. The aspirations for each PMC is to earn the requisite number of points before time runs out or, if time does expire, to have the most points overall. Whichever team meets this goal wins the map and additional Shadow War points.

Escalation gameplay is set up in two phases: For phase one, all three teams battle to hold the map’s A, B and C objectives — but when any of the three PMCs gains control of two of the three objectives, phase two begins. In this second phase, the original three objectives are locked and a new fourth objective (D) opens up. Now, the PMC that forced the phase shift must defend objective D against both attacking groups as long as possible; if D is lost, then play reverts back to phase one again and the war continues on until we have a winner or time runs out.

As beta players have already seen, Escalation offers three completely different environments (maps) to the MAG universe, including the volcanic beaches “Isla de Magma,” the mountainous “Silverback Ridge,” and the desert wasteland of “Radiant Barrens.” As an added bonus, our new add-on pack isn’t just made up of new maps – there are also nine previously-unavailable weapons we’re throwing into the mix too:

Raven: Gotha Elite (Assault Rifle) | KP21 (Machine Gun) | Kinmark SRS (Sniper Rifle)

SVER: Tamsen MK2 (Assault Rifle | Ariet SFW (Machine Gun) | Rubakho SVR (Sniper Rifle)

Valor: M31 CIR (Assault Rifle) | M245 (Machine Gun) | Sentinel M421 (Sniper Rifle)

If this sounds like your brand of DLC fun, we’ll see you again on November 2

Včeraj se je Sonyjevim serverjem kolcalo

As some of you may have notice, there was some sudden server wonkiness around 1:35pm (Pacific) or so.

Sony's server team is already looking into the issue, but if you run into performance problems in the near future, this current issue is likely why.

Peace.

Complaints and reports coming in from the Black Ops forums point to numerous problems plaguing the game, specifically the PS3 version. A list of the known issues has already been compiled by Treyarch forum senior member, the bigb59, so be sure to verify if the problem you're having has been brought to the developers' attention.

Here's the full list:

Reported Bugs

• Party Invite System not working, unable to join friends even with public chosen
  
• Leaderboard not reading correct kills
  
• Framerate issues, affecting gameplay
  
• Theatre mode not working correctly
  
• Respawns, issue spawning near enemies on smaller maps
  
• Game freezing PS3 Console

• Locale Search option not working
  
• Mic's not showing in lobby
  
• Error "Disconnected due to transmission Error" appears after some games

MAG je star eno leto

It may sound clichéd, but wow, time really flies! It’s hard to believe that it has already been a full year since our massive 256-person PlayStation 3 exclusive shooter, MAG, was released all over the globe. To celebrate our one-year birthday, we’re unveiling a handful of promotions as a thank you to our fans throughout the week.

First up, starting Wednesday, January 26 at 12am Pacific Time, we’re changing all in-game queue and “Happy Hour” bonuses to 256% until Sunday, January 30 at 11:59pm. If you’ve been meaning to level up to grab our various “level 60” trophies, our promotional time period is a great time to go for it!

Speaking of January 26, all day from 10am-5pm Pacific Time, members of the Zipper Interactive QA team (our best players!) will be online and playing MAG throughout the day. If you’ve never participated in our “Play MAG with Zipper” events, they’re great fun and offer you the perfect opportunity to show us your skills.

Our third and final promotion is a special “Faction Neutral” switch for the Domination and Acquisition modes. For the first time ever in MAG “Live,” our two biggest game types will switch from being PMC-specific to being open for defense by any of our three factions. Like our 256% XP bonus, this mode switch will be in operation from January 26 at 12am Pacific to January 30 at 11:59pm.

But this isn’t all we’re doing to wish MAG a happy birthday. We’ll also be posting some additional posts throughout the week, including a breakdown of MAG statistics and numbers on Thursday and a special “Five Things You Never Knew About MAG” article on Friday morning. It should be fun.

As always, everyone here at Zipper Interactive wants you to know how much we appreciate all the support and feedback you have given us over the last year and we hope you’ve enjoyed playing the game as much as we’ve enjoyed making and improving it. Thank you very much!

Pet neznanih zanimivosti:

5. The three PMCs – Raven, SVER, and Valor – weren’t always known by those names. Over time, they underwent a number of title changes. Valor was known as the “Allied Forces” and “Hammer,” SVER was “SEVER” and “SIRSAT, and Raven was… well, check further down the list to see what Raven was called.

4. Though MAG was Zipper’s first “released” PS3 game, it wasn’t always planned to be. Prior to the greenlight for MAG, we were tossing around several ideas – including an espionage-themed action/platformer that thrived on chase sequences and a shooter that would ultimately become the game due out this April, SOCOM 4.

3. MAG could be even bigger. MAG is renowned for its 256-player support – and we earned the Guinness World Record for most simultaneous players in a console FPS as proof – but that’s not the limit of our technology. Truth be told, we can support a lot more than that. We picked 256 players as our target for game design reasons (how we divide up squads, platoons, etc). However, with our architecture, we could increase the number players well beyond the 256-person limit if we wanted to – we’d just want to make sure our design fit whatever super huge number we wanted to go after first.

2. MAG began its life as a SOCOM game. Originally, we had planned to make MAG a part of the SOCOM universe. In fact, its first working title was “SOCOM: MAG.” As the game began to take shape, however, it became apparent that what MAG was growing into was much different than SOCOM. The gameplay design, while still somewhat-tactical, continued to become less “SOCOM-like.” The emphasis on character progression and large-scale multiplayer battles with three completely different PMCs sealed the deal, and MAG happily spun off into its own universe. Oh, and remember that Raven “early title” we mentioned? Yeah, they were “Clawhammer!”

1. MAG started as a third-person shooter. Because it started as a SOCOM title, MAG was a third-person shooter for a good portion of its development cycle. When the first MAG trailer was shown at E3 2008, for instance, the game was still planned as a TPS (and the teaser hints at it pretty strongly). As we continued to refine MAG, however, and pull it father away from its SOCOM beginnings, we moved it into the first-person realm to help differentiate it even more. After we played it, when knew absolutely that going first-person was the right choice for the game and the rest, as they say, is history!

We hope you enjoyed this look into the Zipper vault of secrets and hope that you enjoyed our game even more.
