Planetside.

-Teams have the same basic characteristics as the 3 in planetside.
-Almost identical level progression
-Same incentive system for performing tasks
-Almost identical class loadouts

I dunno being able to play a modern planetside without a monthly fee is great, but it seems like nobody notices the contrasts.

Dumb name. Sounds awesome in theory though. Incidentally, your link is missing an end bracket.

Indeed it's a horrible name, as far as I can tell there is almost no storyline at all, I'll give it a rent some day I suppose, but as it stands it seems like the only MMO I ever enjoyed.

I played the beta, it was fun to play the beta but I wouldn't pay for the game. Modern Warfare 2 is alot more fun.

The Idea to run for 15 mins and get killed by someone who you didn't even see thus you have to start over sounds really really boring.

does mag have NPCs?

I thought most of the newer MMOFPS were missing the point and adding PvE
