This blog post is all thanks to DamoPointy
Damopointy came up with a great idea to help sucure a win when defending on Aquisition in MAG (Massive Action Game) This might bite us in the ass but i thought i’d share it with everyone who comes to visit RobGroove.com.
Its a very simple idea really, the attackers need to break into your base and steal a vehicle right? so all you gotta do is grab 3 of the 4 vehicles you have at your motor pools and block the enterance. If they manage to blow one of them up you still have 2 to block with. If they get as far as getting the escort vehicle to the main gate, your blocking cars can hold it there untill one of your bunker turrets or someone with an RPG can blow them into the respawn screen.
Plus dont forget, The vehicles have their own guns on top so if there are 3 of you, one in each vehicle, you can just shoot the hell out of anything that comes near.
Big Thanks to Damopointy, Guitariste98 and Thedayuhate for helping me get these photo’s
So i have a confession to make, lol. When news of this game first struck i got VERY excited and a few months later i had already sent the money over seas to pre-order it in the states as i thought after the socom episode (UK got socom approx 6 months after the USA) i didnt want to be left out, so i preordered it as soon as possible. Now the games released in the UK just 3 days after the USA i couldnt wait the extra week or so for my import so lol i went out and bought it again (UK version) Looks like ill have a brand new copy of MAG to sell.
Trophy Planning/Plan ahead!
Massive Action Game, though the name sounds cheesey is a massive action game. The domination games are HUGE! Estimates tell me the map is approx 600 by 600 meters, Yup you get lost alot when you first start playing but aslong as you have a good squad leader all you have to do is run to the flashing target on the screen. You have to remember that your part of a war, on a vast battlefield, and no matter how good you are, it won’t get you a win. Your part of your squad which is part of your Platoon which is part of your company so make sure you have a good squad leader with a mic and if you dont get the rest of your team to kick him. Its so annoying when your in a squad with 7 noobs with no mic’s but you just gotta deal with it. Take the rough with the smooth. You will have games that are impossible to win and you’ll have games where you just dominate game, unless the other platoons in your company suck complete ass which will annoy the living hell out of you. At the end of the day you get a different game everytime which keeps it new but i have to warn you, there are times you will just want to turn it off and call it a day. When that happens just try another game and chances are you will have a great game.
256 players you say? i bet MAG is nothing but lag. WRONG!…… Strangely Zipper have the lag aspect under control. In the last 3 days ive been playing MAG i have only noticed lag as you know it suring one game. it seems you hit everything your aiming at. Sometimes you may get hit half a sec after you take cover behind a wall but it doesnt happen very often and with everything going on around you, you dont really have time to worry about it. Mag is a respawn so get back out there and help your squad soldier!
