Sony handed the beta out to 16,000 gamers who applied for an access code via the PS Blog.
Did you at least bug report the issues you were having? I'm guessing you treated it like a free game rather than a 'test' like it's supposed to be.
So you can't complain if those issues don't get fixed.
I didn't see any real issues with it when I played. More to do with people than the game itself. Not enough folks with headsets, so it all got a little chaotic.
Too many people see every game as a deathmatch. There will always be the problem of people just going for kills until people don't have a kdr or there are no points for kills or even minus points for kills.
L4D is a success in that you have to work together as you are too vulnerable on your own and you don't get any points for kills, just for surviving.
shiwayb shouldn't have been on the beta, a bit of a pleb going by his comments.
look up "beta" before you post really obvious comments -its not a free game, its not a full demo, its just a cut down, no frills demo of a partially produced game.
Released half way through production with no dedicated support or enough server bandwidth as retail games -what the f*ck did you think you were playing?
The whole point of it was to get 16,000 people to test the game and report as many problems, errors, glitches as possible -so that the final product will be significantly improved. Read the article - 8000 changes.
Well done sir, you have won a platinum trophy for being a Class A bell-end.

iLove PS Fanboys and there defensive replies.
I dont expect Beta's to such when i end up downloading around 3.5 GB.
I mean where the hell was the graphical detail?
Where was the "fun factor"?
No where to be found...
I mean using Windows 7 Beta & RC was more enjoyable...

Just because your a bellend, does not make others fanboys does it? When someone gets made to look stupid in a post they always have to resort to "oh they must be a fanboy" Shiwayb its a shame people like you get betas.

Just because i dont agree with you dosent automatically mean you should start throwing insults around.
Yes it makes you look like a fanboy because you cannot handle anything bad being said about a game.
They are my views and opinions.
I didnt ask for people to start judging them and responding to what I belive MAG to be a Bland and Boring Game.
So if you dont like what i type, dont read it.
No one is forcing you to, plus it is you who looks like a bell end firing up because i dislike it.

I'm not a ps fanboy, i dont even know if ill get MAG.
You reveal your true stupidity and ignorance yet again with your inability to understand the concept of a BETA.
Graphical detail? IT'S A BETA! A beta is release to see how the game plays x% through production and give problems/quirks etc a chance to arise. The graphical detail is one of the last things to be refined.
Fun Factor is just personal preference, no argument there.
I'm in the beta and loving it. The graphics are fantastic - especially when you consider the scale of the battles you are involved in. And you really do feel part of a big battle which is great - communication is key but a very enjoyable game and I can see this picking up a large following
I hear pretty good things from people playing this game. It forces you to work as a team or the game won't function which is good, no personal Rambo's (though you still get the odd one) Will look into it more when its an open beta or reviews start hitting.
Wicked news!! This game is getting better and its very addictive cant wait till its release! All the bugs i have found seems to be on the list so im happy. However i am also stuck on 99% of the new download.
Any word on if/when this will get a open beta? Since the update 3-4 people on my friends list are playing it all the time and say its fanf**kingtastic and now I want it
