Wait, so it's a bad thing that the trailer is going to be exactly what the game is going to be only now that the developers had time to work on it more it's going to be better?

Or do you mean "wuznt"?

Sorry I though 1337 talk would come off as sarcastic. The game still doesn't look as good as the E3 2005 trailer.

Right. Now it sounds both inferior and arrogant.
Maybe to you. At least 360 doesn't have incidents like Sony's E3 2005 and E3 2006.

You know, RvB is known quite well in Australia... I, along with quite a few of my friends (the ones into gaming), do know of the series, even the ones that own PS3s.

I was going more along the lines of the drunk quote, which seems quite accurate.

Though I have yet to meet more then three people who know about RvB, and less who actually watch the show well enough to know the so-called "universal quote".

This is over the span of a few years... Though I proved my point with "friends" just like he proved his point with "friends", so it's like trying to say "Germany is awesome because Jack and Jill gets high", the numbers are too low to speak anything. Get a poll together, asking people if they know of RvB, or better yet, just ask them if they know of that specific "universal quote" without mentioning RvB... and we'll start to talk numbers... =p

Right... PS3 fanboys and 360 fanboys shut the fuck up right now! Indigo, you love the PS3, that's great, we get the picture! You don't need to start bragging about it and Resistance in every single thread! You don't need to make unquantifiable statements about online multiplayer using 'your experiences' as 'evidence'!

Shatnershaman, you love Halo, that's great, we get it! You even have an avatar of MC, that's cool. But you don't need to bring Halo into every single thread! Halo is not the be-all and end-all. It has nothing to do with MAG, so keep it out of the thread.

Can we please go back on-topic, and try to keep this civil!?
Well said

Back on topic:

I think the game has some serious potential. It looks gritty and realistic. I think i might get this one depending on more footage and a decent review.

my only concern is in how fluid the animation will be. considering the amount of data being transferred in these massive games, i doubt the animation is going to be fluid since it will ramp up and down based on the connection speed of other users...

now, if 10% of players have crappy connections, it's less noticable when you have a 20 player game, since you'll only notice 2 people who glitch around. but now apply that 10% to 200 people, and you could have an entire squad of 20 glitchy players.

if you walked into the right grouping of people, the game would look like crap.

What i'm worried is that what ever system they use to organize all the players and objectives, that it will become too complicated.

It would be so organized that it would turn complicated and it would be more of a Army Simulator than a game if it isn't that already.

realistic a simulation should be before it stops being "fun" and starts being "work"
Objective 1 ....... patrol town square *COMPLETE*

Umm, what?
in real life, the military handles logistics. a sim like experience would be a series of my examples with small brief uneventful excersions into the city. maybe a firefight twice a month.

given the premise, i doubt that any game design would even begin to approach a sim-like experience. and with that many players in one game, they are probably going to design the levels and scenarios to maximize casualties and action.

Also I hate when people talk about the price of a ps3 when it contains a blu-ray player in it for very little cost which is making sony lose money. Seriously the one I could get for my comp is fucking 130$.. So be nice to sony atleast they half care for their customers.
I own all three consoles (Although the ps3 see's less use than my 360) but that's like saying it's ok for the hooker i just hired to charge $500 for a blowjob because she's an awesome sushi chef.

Well it depends, did she make you sushi afterwards? Similarly, will the PS3 be able to play blu-ray movies whenever you get them?
If the answer is no, then you have just paid for a 360.
If the answer is yes, you have just paid for a PS3.

You're about hookers.

Okay, fine. No-one is allowed to mention the Ps3. If you guys don't say its faulty, we won't have to defend it.
You don't have to defend it. Sony is a corporation made up of hundreds if not thousands of people including a team of highly trained (and paid) lawyers waiting to sue minor websites into oblivion. They can take care of themselves.

DICE should really start suing with all the people knocking them off (battlefront,new LOTR battlefront,Frontlines,Undertow,MAG)

So people shouldn't care if I was to say the 360 is a waste of space and money. However, some users still do.

Edit: This is not me actually saying this, this is me using it as a damn example.
People should disagree certainly. They shouldn't 'care'
