PS3: Zipper Interactive - "Massive Action Game"

Is there a thread on this game already?

MAG: Massive Action Game is the tentative name for an upcoming MMO shooter exclusively for the PlayStation 3[2] in development by Zipper Interactive. The game was announced at Sony's E3 2008 press conference, and will be released in Q3 2009. Various subtitles are being considered for the game, including MAG: Shadow War, MAG: Zero, MAG: Global Assault and MAG: Final Hour.[3][4]

The game will utilize a new server architecture[5] to support online battles with up to 256 players, with users divided into 8-player squads.[6][7] Each squad will be led by a player who has advanced through the game's ranking system.[6] Character statistics and development will also increase with frequent gameplay.[8] The players most advanced in rank will be able to either direct the battle or participate directly in combat.[3]

Basic battles will take place within ongoing, faction-based campaigns to encourage the player to actively play,[6][9] with three factions S.V.E.R (pronounced Sever) a group from war torn countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan. Raven, a futuristc group who wear black armor and sport high-tech weaponry. And Valor, a Military like force with gear like the US army. The game's E3 unveiling trailer featured large landscapes, tactics such as air strikes and parachuting, and a variety of vehicles, from tanks and APCs to airplanes.[9][6] The game will boast complete ground up class creating with weapon attachments and perks such as explosives. Also, players will be able to customize their characters including face, voice, and armor .[10] The game will be a first-person shooter.[11]
