I wasn't meaning how many on a server, I meant how many in 1 game at a time. In MAG you have 256 players all on one map battling it out against each other.

In this game will it be thousands going up against each other at once?

1 server = 1 game

same goes to MAG - each server can handle 1 game.


See, MAG isn't really an MMO. It's just a multiplayer game with alot of people. Like maps. Whereas Huxley and Dust 514 are huge MMO games.


I'm blown away by your ability to fit things onto your own agenda. MMO = massively multiplayer online. you say "It's just a multiplayer game with allot of people". um.. OK!

Yeah see your point. LOL. Ok what I meant was it's not MMO like many think of MMO. Huxley and Dust 514 have quests, huge worlds to explore and arent all about killing each other. MAG is just KZ2 type multiplayer with 256 players. Theres a difference between the games. Is that better?

OT: I watched the first couple of videos and maybe I missed it somewhere, but do we have an estimated release period for this game?

How similar is it to EVE? Should I check that out to get an idea of how this game will end up?

Not at all similar in any way, shape or form. They happen in the same universe, but are nothing a like really. As to release date, that is still a very big question mark. They are throwing around statements like "hopfully by 20XX" so be prepared to wait.

Looks great, but no release date, so it won't stop me from getting MAG.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

MAG is not an MMO. Its a MP FPS.

BTW...I played the beta for Huxley...I wasn't impressed at all...but it was limited...maybe they will roll-out a more impress one in the future.

Define MMO for us people....


It might fall under the definition of MMO. But for anyone with great experience in both MMO and FPS worlds, will claim its just a FPS game, online.

"Persistent Environment..."  Without that, you don't have a MMO...I'm don't know any details about MAG, but I've not heard of it having this.

Not trying to be smart, just trying to get a better picture.
If Mag is an MMO does that mean Warhawk is as well?
