Beta test

OpenMAG is MAG rebuilt from scratch: up to 256 players on one map, in squads under real leaders. This beta is Overclock: Grey War, attackers against defenders, on our test server: a rotation of six maps of every size, from the 32-player Soroka Yard up to the 256-player Caspian Refinery and the Grey Front.

New in this build: squads: make a party in the lobby and share its invite code, deploy together in one squad with a human squad leader, use scoped chat and the commo rose; press F8 (or Settings, REPORT A PROBLEM) to send us a problem report with a screenshot straight from the game. Also new since the last build: matches are played in MAG-style stages, the attackers pushing from their edge through two lines of objectives to a final one (each stage that falls moves both sides' spawns and adds time); each side has a protected home camp where the enemy cannot hurt you (enemies inside it have 10 s to leave); maps come in five sizes (TINY 32 to HUGE 512 players) and the new 32-player Soroka Yard joins the rotation. Alyeska Terminus and Kennick Rail Yard are out of the rotation for now while their final stage is reworked.
Protocol 12: builds from before this one cannot join the server any more. If you have an older OpenMAG folder, download this build and replace it (keep nothing but your settings, which live in %APPDATA%\OpenMAG).
Everything is unlocked during the beta: every skill, weapon, kit, gear and armour is open to every callsign. Your XP and skill points still add up and are kept for when skills go back to being earned.

Server address: the public address is coming soon. Until then the game uses the mesh address 10.42.0.20:7777, which only works if you are on our network; we will post here when openmag.plabs.cloud:7777 is live. You can type any host:port into the Server field.

What to report

Press F8 to report a problem right where it happens (or Settings → REPORT A PROBLEM). Pick Bug, Looks wrong, Gameplay or Idea, write one line, and SEND: the game attaches a screenshot from the moment you pressed F8, where you were, your FPS, graphics settings and GPU, and the end of the game log. Ben reads each one and says yes or no before anything gets fixed. No connection? The report waits and goes the next time you join.
