6000 More Fixes Made To MAG

MAG has now entered it’s forth beta phase according to a post left yesterday on the Playstation Blog. The new phase has brought about 6000 more fixes.

The most noticeable changes include:  Proximity chat, this allows players to overhear the voice communications of opposing team members as they draw closer.  

The next is a thing called Shadow War Bonuses. "Depending on which Private Military Contractors (PMC's) are leading in the number of contracts owned, the entire PMC team will earn different bonuses based on gametype. Leading in Sabotage adds experience points, leading in Acquisition increases leadership aura distance, and leading in Domination decreases tactical strike cooldown time."

Other features include improvements on the following:  the ranking system, character hit detection, skill tuning, level cap has been increased, and finally, abilities and experience points have been leveraged.

Expect more fixes until the beta ends on November 20^th. MAG is expected for release on January 26, 2010, for the PS3 only. Remember the date.
