Level 3
I'm yet to see this " MAG is dead " though everyone & their dog have been saying so since Feb '10
Dust will fail hard .
To buy the MAG ip from Sony will cost millions , Zipper was making a next gen consol game when Sony closed the door .
Kee' MAG going , re-install DLC modes and multi queue STOP playing sab,sup only

There is no knowing how many players there going to be able to have in a game.
I remember them saying that a small map is a few miles wide, thats pretty big!
1. Dust514 is small battles MAG is large battles .
2.Remember what happened with freerealms, DCUO & MAG demo , all free2play but needs real $'s to progress further .
The idea didnt work same going to happen to Dust514 .
The size of maps to amount of players is wrong , you could and do spawn at the wrong end .
Look & some videos or get in the beta itll change your mind .
I have full access not just a weekend pass that has expiration date , I hardly play Dust mainly cause its just not MAG and feels generic and basic .

There is no way Dust is going to be small battles, the smallest map is about the size of the Domination maps.
Also, you have got to remember that its connected to EVE, a server that holds thousands of players at once.
And Dust don't actually require real money to progress, everything you can buy for real money is pretty much the same as the stuff you can buy with the in-game currency, ISK.
Dust is only in the Beta stages, and I pretty much would bet it will hold more than MAG.
I was a MAG player through and through when it first came out. I clocked up well over 200 hours and a KDR of 2.57.
But for me, Dust IS the next large scale shooter, and will be around for a long time!

I think i'll hold off on getting excited about Dust & how good it could be!!!!
If its got fighter style aircraft as was suggested its just going to tempt the Warhawk/Starhawk pilots to come play it & then it'll just spiral into die spawn die spawn.....
These players turned there last two games into domination from the sky!!!
So i'll hold off till its out for a little while before I even consider it..
