We’ve got 1,000 MAG beta keys – want one? [Update]

Update: It looks as those these codes are Euro-only. We’re getting a bunch back not working from American readers. Don’t try to get one if you’re outside Europe.

Update 2: The text below’s been updated. We’ll just leave this page open until they’re all gone. Just keep tweeting @patlike.

SCEE just sent us 1,000 MAG beta keys. Hilariously, we’ve got to distribute them ourselves. Here’s how you get one:

Comment on this story. Please try to be witty, or something. Or say something along the lines of, “I love buying games. I spend all my money on games.” We’re supposed to be attractive to advertisers.
Follow all of the following on Twitter: @patlike, @vg247, @stephnunneley, @JohnnyCullen and @vahn16.
Tweet the following ONCE: @patlike Give me a #magbeta key!
NOTE: You MUST follow @patlike to receive the code.
Spam me and you get nothing. Worse: you get less than nothing.
We’ll keep doing this until they’re all gone. Just keep tweeting @patlike and we’ll keep sending out codes.

The beta’s now been extended to December 4. Good luck!

I’ve been watching the vids and reading articles about MAG.
from what ive seen it looks like a promising game, but im not sure how the 256 player match will pan out.

apparently the game engine can support 256 players without lag but im looking forward to the “somewhat” tactical gameplay of being in 8-men squads

(can i get my beta code? im anxious to try this game out)

This game is in my wish list for next year must buys.
It’s awesome. I Love Call Of Duty, and with more tactics and more people to play with… It must be awseome!
I’m pretty sure to buy this game.
I Love games, and most of my money is wasted on video games

This game is somewhat awful.

And by somewhat I mean really quite.

It has the worst parts of BF2 (the logn journeys from useless spawn points), without the redeeming features; sprawling, beautiful maps, cehicles and squad spawning. The landscape is just like a massively overcomplicated deathmatch arena.

And as for the ‘feel’, they tried to go CoD:MW, but it just feels horrible. It’s not quick or snappy. The guns fire clumsily – the bullets with a lethal capacity similar to chunks of brie, as opposed to the bullets.

And then, the worst most heinous element of the ‘feel’ is the perspective and angle of the weapon. I am constantly scared I am goign to fire off left into my teammates skull.

That is when I know who my teammate is, and if I havent just reached my destination from a twenty minute hike through urban nothingness, to be killed by one grenade of 256 all within 15 meters of me.

And I dont even know hwo to use the fucking heal tool.
