MAG was incredible for support players.

MAG was a dream game for support players, and I absolutely adored being a shotgun medic who healed and revived teammates. Most games cater to crack shot riflemen with otherworldly KDRs, but a good support player could really make a difference in MAG. It’s unfortunate that it didn’t have enough popularity to launch a perennial franchise because few games since have given supports bros a lane in which to shine.

Delta Force

Anyone else playing the Delta Force Havoc mode? Getting a lot of MAG vibes. They just need clans and we are good to go.

Specific game search

I'm looking for a game similar to MAG not in term of how many players but in term that I trully loved playing a Healer in mag they felt unique just running around the map injecting people to revive them. The exp system and RPG aspect of leveling skills and building a character like in mmorpg. Is there any other shooter feel like that? Grinding exp and really having skills and healers and no just a pure shooting exist?

Miss this Game

I really miss this game, played it from being a squeaker. Not sure what names I ended up being. I know one of my valor accounts was xblack_lightning and my sver was BulletInYaBrain. I know my raven account had a similar name to sver.

Just wanted to say this game crafted a long term love for FPS games and i still think about it every once in a while. Literally woke up at 6am every day during summer as a kid just so I could hop on. Miss this game and absolutely destroying 3C and the flock with VL$ and ARx.

The talented leaders in MAG taught me to be a better squad leader in Milsims.

When I was a preteen I was lucky enough to play hundreds of hours of this game. What I was able to see was the beginning of my love affair with the Milsim genre. Not in the gameplay, but in the leadership. Those of you who lead platoons in MAG gave all us younger player such good example of how to lead people. You make a plan, you make it authoritative, you make people laugh and you thank them when they finish the job. To all those platoon leaders thank you all, you finished the job. Now it's the turn of the younger players you lead to help grow the next gen

Glad to be squad leading ever week on Squad on Riplomacy and SquadOps and joining operations in ARMA.

Anyone who plays warzone up for a reunion?

You may have known me as nitroz76 who main’d on SVER with BHD.

Kinda reminiscing about the old days. Even though how much shit we gave eachother or how the forums were a battleground, I miss it.

You can add me up as I have changed my name to YEET__KYNG#6075761

or my PSN is just YEET__KYNG (both usernames are with 2 _’s)

I’m usually on at 1am EST

Technical marvel

This game was a technical marvel for the hardware it was running on and I'll die on that hill.

We didn't appreciate what we had 😭

Sorry, just watched a bunch of YT vids and am feeling really nostalgic.

SVER

I remember playing this game. Hard to believe it was so long ago!! I played for SVER and it was some really fun days. I would come home from school and play all evening nonstop. What a game to remember.

Possible revival ?

Lets say somebody is willing to pay tons of $ to get a private server up and maintenance it every week.

Chance you get sued for using the intelectual proprieties of a defunct compagnie are high ?

If its possible to host a server is it still possible to make the game run on it ?

Is there any scrypt for the game find able and download able ?

Hell Let Loose

Any of you guys played Hell Let Loose yet? Seems like the newest "Mag substitute." None of the tactical shooters since Mag have really impacted me the same way, and this probably wont either, but im thinking about trying it out.

MAG, my first fps.

14 years and over 10k hours of fps later, I’m here to say thanks to MAG. It introduced me to the genre, from mag to cod to battlefield. Destiny, Apex and milsims like Hell let loose, insurgency sandstorm. The list goes on and and on, and it all started on this game! I would love to see a new game like it, but i have a feeling the glory days of fps are behind us. Anyways thats all I’ve got. Enjoy your lives. Raven gang 4L.

This article mentioned MAG, but its mostly about Planetside 2 and MMOFPS

I love both games, but Planetside 2 on PC is the closest game to MAG, so thats what I play

[MAG] ISO Former Raven Elite Members

Looking for members of Raven Elite who welcomed me with open arms after they saw my Gung-ho approach to using the MK46. If I do recall many members went on to play MMO’s but it was really cool to play with them, would like to reunite with the old group

Looking for a gift

Does anybody know where I can find decor or memorabilia related to mag? I’ve got a coworker who never gets Christmas presents, and the only thing he’s mentioned he likes is Mag, but it’s an older game, and I can’t find anything related to it

What improvements would you make in MAG if you were the developer?

Hello, everyone, as much as we all miss mag, I am curious to know what improvements or new feature would you add if you were the developer?

In my humble opinion, I think the skill tree could have been deeper rooted to skill in a particular class. I would also change the logic behind equipping the character. Like breaking down the active, passive, and weapon gear slots into more specific gear slots would be cool.

I also think cosmetics is a huge thing right now. I would have loved to outfit my player with some cool swag! KEQ custom made specific swag!

But then again, I love MAG the way it is!

How about you?
