Today a whole new group of operatives joined the Shadow War. October 12 marks the start of the GameStop and EB Games pre-order MAG Public Beta period. At 10:00 AM this morning, all those who pre-ordered MAG from GameStop or EB Games in Canada received access to the MAG Public Beta and joined existing Public Beta users. Be prepared to choose your side – Raven, Valor, and S.V.E.R. are once again locked in battle.
The hours for this phase of the MAG Public Beta are:
Monday – Friday:
1:00 PM – 4:00 PM EDT
8:00 PM – 12:00 AM EDT
12:00 PM – 3:00 PM CDT
7:00 PM – 11:00 PM CDT
11:00 AM – 2:00 PM MDT
6:00 PM – 10:00 PM MDT
10:00 AM – 1:00 PM PDT
5:00 PM – 9:00 PM PDT
Later this week or early next, we will be releasing a new version of the MAG Public Beta client. This will be a major update to the MAG Public Beta client and server set.
Remember, in North America the MAG Public Beta access from November 9 to November 20 will be available exclusively to people who pre-order MAG from GameStop or EB Games (in Canada). If you live in North America and you want to continue playing MAG you will need to get your pre-order in to GameStop or EB Games and get your MAG Public Beta voucher code. This will also be the first time the MAG Public Beta will be available 24/7 with unlimited server hours (with the exception of server maintenance).
In conjunction with the next phase of the MAG Public Beta, we are also introducing a ton of new features for our Web site, MAG.com. The updated site will include a community section with access to the MAG forums, RSS feeds, and new media and downloads for fans, including wallpapers, AIM icons, and XMB themes for each of the PMCs. You can also read more background on each of the PMCs and enlist in your favorite private army. Check it out now at MAG.com. The Shadow War is coming 1.26.10.
My code doesn’t work either. I really want to figure this out. I have been waiting a long time to play this.
Why is it taking so long to download updates for MAG after downloading and installing the game. This is very disappointing.
I pre-ordered MAG online to & they sent me a Beta code an hour after pre-order & it won’t work!!!!
WTF!!! My beta code won’t work either!!!!
i’m still on the fence about this game. i like shooters a lot. loved cod mw but eventually got tired of it. right now i’m really enjoying uncharted’s multiplayer and i freakin cannot wait to play the single player. these will be the longest hours of my life, lol. anyway, probably pre order for the beta just to check it out.
I got my beta key via email a few days ago, I tried it then only to realize it was invalid, but I read I had to wait till today, so I did. I entered it again this morning, after the time stated and it still says invalid, even though I’m entering it right. I even waited till 5pm PST which the email oddly says, still invalid, I’m going to try it again here in a few mins once it is 6pm PST… but so far it isn’t looking good. I’ve seen everyone else with gamestop pre order keys going in, but mine has said invalid since a few days ago, and still is today. The email provided a support number, but all it is are automated responses to simple problems, none of them talk about redeeming codes that don’t work… please help.
Thanks
Hey is anyones codes working because mines not and ive heard from alot of friends that theres isnt either
My code is invalid too!!!!!
When you kneel down or lay down, why don’t you stay in place? It’s quite annoying to be sliding all over the place.
How do you fix the code problem?!?!
Just like basically everyone else, my code isn’t working. Anyone out there with an answer?
Code doesn’t work either expected this from. Gamestop.
im glad im already in the beta, cuase i wouldnt trust a word Seth says anymore, hey seth any news on socom bro?? prolly not he doesnt even play games i bet he just reads the paper they give him, tool
My code doesn’t work either. I got ahold of gamestop, they said all the codes they sent out were invalid, and they’re working to get the problem fixed with no estimate of how long that might take. They said to just keep an eye on my email account.
Greatly looking forward to this game. Not getting Uncharted 2. I’m boycotting it after playing drake’s fortune and running into the demons in the Nazi war bunker. Ugh just thinking about it freaks me out.
Hey I was really excited about this game until I saw gameplay… I dont care that much about graphics but these looked like ps2 graphics. I am a huge cod4 fan, do you think I should get this game?
Thank you very much Serge_Storms your post brings me relief that they at least acknowledge they dropped the ball, please post back with any more info when you can.
Thanks
so let me get this right unless you pre-ordered mag on gamestop or eb games u wont be able to acces the public beta?
so basically it isnt like a signing up at their main website or something like that?
This are the best games ever
Hope it plays better then the beta…
And like everyone else who pre-ordered from Gamestop, my code is also coming up as invalid. WTF. Sure hope there are plans to extend beta access or something – since a day has already been lost.
Darn, I don’t have any money to preorder it right now =(. When is the official release date?
MAG is scheduled for release on January 26th, 2010 in North America.
