Basically the way it's done in Warhammer Online. If you want to test the other side you do it on another server.
This is to make it harder for a person to deliberately sabotage the other faction for the benefit of his main faction. As an aside, multi-realming with multiple accounts is a bannable offense in Warhammer Online when done on the same server. At least when I was still playing it. Keeping the integrity of the Realm versus Realm conflict was very important to them and they took it seriously.
So in Mag, if they went with a persistent war could limit you to one faction per server. But by choosing a different server you could try a different faction.
In response to someone else.
Multi-squad/clan matches would be interesting. It would promote the formation of Alliances for large scale combat. Something that is an interesting dynamic in games like Eve Online and Warhammer Online.

I think hands-on is very very important for this game. I can't seem to grasp the 256 player concept.
Everyone on the MAG team needs to play some random Fat Princess games (without their colleagues). I think they can learn from FP's good and bad points.

I've only been excluded for Killzone 2 beta as of yet as I never knew where to get the invite, turned out I cud've had one from Killzone.com.
MAG is the 2nd beta which seems to pass over me.

wouldnt that be breaking the licence you agree to when playing the beta ?
I got in for a few minutes before the wife yelled at me for playing in front of the kids. It looks about average for a real life FPS, like Socom or COD, not KZ2 quality, but it's not a corridor shooter. It looks like 720P no AA. Vegitation looked good, lots of tree and plants. The frame rate held up well, but I didn't see much action. I did attack a tank with a machine gun, but then ran away.

Sorry if it has been asked or discussed, but is it likely that this will ever make it to the PC? I absolutely HATE first person shooters on consoles and want to play this on PC.

Currently, I'm suffering through the amazing game that is battlefield 1943, which is like experience greatness while swimming through molasses. They took everything great about BF1942, ruined the infantry combat, and added one of the worst implementations of console aiming that I've ever seen. I tend to spend all my time in the air dropping horribly gimped bombs on people and tanks that refuse to die after I've already shot them with 20mm cannons, with only injury effects. This all being after the shitty LOD finally allows me to actually see the targets and manage to steer the the plane through the horrible air physics impeding it. Such a love hate relationship until it comes out on PC again.
