MAG: Massive Action Game

MAG patch detailed

Zipper Interactive has posted details of the latest patch to hit MAG and it is by far the biggest and some may say best yet.

 

The description on the official site states:

 

“MAG v1.06 will add a number of requested new features to the game that should please fans regardless of their play style. Not only have we made it much harder to accidentally kill fellow teammates, for example, we’ve also expanded the Medical Kit’s functionality to give users total control over who they heal (allies or themselves), while updating the experience system that surrounds it. Other new goodies include improved vehicle handling and physics, new gun ports for APCs, weapon efficiency adjustments, credit cost changes, and updated medal and ribbon requirements.

 

“Another nice addition is that we’re also giving users who are currently without access to PlayStation Stores the ability to get all previously-available DLC immediately in-game.”

 

The developer adds that this is not even all the feature that the patch will include and that there will be further details on the other additions soon.

 

Here are the details so far:
