Gaming Slang for Newbies

If you're new to gaming, then there is more to learn than just a game's moves and strategy. Gamers should also be familiar with gaming slang, which has around 200 terms in common usage, many of which are difficult for new players to guess. But, you should persevere. Understanding gaming jargon improves collaboration by helping gamers to convey complex strategies, emotions, and actions quickly. Here is the term you care about:

MP means "Mana Points or Magic Points" (Gaming Term), "Multiplayer" (Gaming Term), "Member Of Parliament" and "Military Police."

Mana Points

In gaming, MP is used with the meaning "Mana Points" which are an indication of a player's levels. In most games, the MP score decreases with each spell cast, thereby ensuring players are selective with their spells and keep their MP pots replenished. "Mana Points" are often referred to as "Magic Points."

Multiplayer

Also in gaming, MP refers to any game that is played by more than one player at the same time.

Member Of Parliament

In the UK and other countries with parliamentary systems of government, an MP is an elected representative of a constituency. (Similar to a Member of Congress in the US.)

Military Police

In military circles, MP is used to refer to a member of the "Military Police." The plural, MPs, is also used to refer to the "Military Police" force.
