I have never seen a beta crash under load before. They have had other glitches but the amount of people who are trying out the MAG beta has to be a fair amount fewer than those expected to pick up the title on launch day and still the servers have crashed.

This is very bad news for those who were excited about the game and throws weight behind the argument that consoles cannot support 256 player games… let’s hope this is just a glitch and everything will be working again shortly.
