Les forumeurs de GAF ont déjà reçu le prochain Game Informer et le décortiquent tranquillement. Au programme notamment, la première preview de MAG, un FPS pour 256 joueurs exclusif à la PS3. Les principales infos :
-‘hopes’ for 30FPS when all the action is going down at all times
-256 Domination mode. Attackers and defenders. Out layer of defense and inner layer. Once gone through the out layer ‘hell breaks loose’. Anti-aircraft and radar are vulnerable. If your faction wins alot it gets the contract for that game mode and gets XP bonuses and perks.
-3 other game modes: Acquisition(128 player escort-style mode. Steal 2 prototype armored transports and bring to extraction zone). Sabotage(64player, control 2 points for X time then a demolition objective is revealed which must be destroyed). Suppression(64 player team deathmatch)-No soldier class system, but has a free-form kit creation. Can save 3 different load-outs. Depending on your choice of weapons, it can be told by looking at you so others can tell. Change your load-out to match how the battle is going.
-Ranking up gives access to new weapons/perks/leadership positions.-8 player into a squad, 4 squads into a platoon, 4 platoons into a company (US Military)
-Veteran ranks can enlist into leadership roles, give orders to squad, then platoon, then the company(OIC)
-Officer only communication channel to help organize the battle-Want to be approachable to casual yet have alot of features for the hardcore.
-Been running 256 player tests since Nov. 08 and plans to have closed/open betas.
