personally
gameplay>graphics
i'm more worried that this game will be unplayable thanks to maps were you will be killed 2 seconds after respawn by stray bullet or campers(this game can end up as a "run to the nearest safe spot and kill everything that respawns/move wit sniper rifle" campers game).
i don't care about the graphics as long as it have stellar framerate, won't have glitches and will be "clean"(no bad textures, models etc. and everything at the same level).
for me even first gen 360 games like Perfect Dark Zero looks good.

 

EXACTLY! A shooter that requires 256 players also requires little skill to have many kills!

What would require more skill to consistently come out on top? A 1 vs 1, 10 player DM, 32 player DM or a 8 vs 8 x 16 TDM?

I wouldn't know, but I am hoping someone else does. All I know is that I won't touch a game like this with a 10-foot pole. Killzone 2 was way too intense for me and it was 32 players. This game would make me rip my hair out.

 

A one vs one is too obvious that one person will win. 32 player DM sounds about right. It's the truth man, i've been playing FPS for years and with 256 players on the map its going to be a spawn kill fest. I'm not saying don't buy it, i'm just giving my opinion from experience. KZ2 had the right amount of players, which is why everything turned out well. You can have players who are valued on your team by true skill. The battlefields are wide enough and that is a plus for KZ2. MAG is going to be a gigantic clusterfuck. Question though....how was KZ2 too intense? Man if that was intense you would've hated the old Call of Duty games lol.

 

I disagree, because from what the game title sudgest and what Zipper promises us, the maps are going to be HUGE. As long as the map size:player size ratio is right, then the final factor that should matter is the spawn system.

 

From what I read, the players are going to broken up into squads. It doesn't mean those squads wont eventually meet up on equal ground. Certain spawnpoints are going to get gang raped.

You may have also noticed that people spawn from sky/planes and jeeps . If that doesnt do the trick , a little tweek in spawn points will fix it!

STAGE loses respect points

 

 

 

lol...I doubt people will spawn from planes and jeeps in this game. The planes and jeeps are usually first come, first serve in these games. If you want a jeep or plane you usually have to wait for another plane to respawn after all the planes are gone or you can just hope someone doesn't run off far away with vehicles and eventually gets out. They will most likely spawn from the battleships like in BF and fly towards land.

STAGE wins back respect points!

I'm not sure if you can drive a Heli and parachute manually in the beginning of the round like in BF. However I do know that there's some parachute spawning, where it happens automatically when your squad finish an objective. It's weird.

As for your other post (about staying in cover), I'm not denying that people won't/shouldn't be in cover. I'm just denying that all of them would literally be touching shoulder to shoulder, so neatly, in such a close proximity (they looked like Civil War soldiers or something).

 

Wow...are you serious? They will spawn people parachuting? Thats kind....gay. If there is parachute spawning, get ready for a shitload of spawn kills from snipers on land. I can't tell how many times i've killed people jumping from planes in BF or even shot down planes.

As for the other post, we'll really have to see more videos. But from the videos I saw, people tend to flood naturally into one battle area even if they are spread apart. This happened plenty of times in BF.

 

The smart guys go around the huge chaos and shoot their enemies from behind =)

 

LOL....hope they don't see you with your parachutes first.

Lol, you're so pessimistic, have a little hope =D (Although sometimes PS3 fanboys hope too much and look too much in unproven things in the future)

Zipper has been doing Online centric games for 2 generations. I'm sure they're not complete idiots.

Fair enough.
