Looks like the website goes live in about 51 and a half hours. I think that coincides with the SoE Fayre thing.

Lungboy · 05-Jul-2011, 23:55

Oooh, i was only asking Noodles about this earlier.

Dave · 06-Jul-2011, 07:22

FuzzyLogic · 06-Jul-2011, 08:16

Thousands you say?

To shreds you say?

Woo, go go gadget Galaxy!

nick-fury · 06-Jul-2011, 08:22

Hopefully this won't be as much of a let down as The Old Republic

DizMatt · 06-Jul-2011, 08:58

so much fun in the original, but also so pointless after a night of winning over entire continents
it;s like sand castles.
the next morning it's all for nothing!

Well it's an SoE game so don't keep your hopes up.

nick-fury · 06-Jul-2011, 09:31

Tru dat !

MaNiC^ · 06-Jul-2011, 17:34

I've still got hope for ToR. This will be worth looking into aswell though, I expect they wont have gotten rid of the mossies so I'll have to get back into pilot mode

Spanks · 06-Jul-2011, 18:12

fuckkkkkkk yessssss finallly

ophiuchus · 06-Jul-2011, 20:44

NC FTW!

mr_o · 08-Jul-2011, 08:27

Hmmmm. Lots of shooting. Not a lot of dying. Looks really nice though and looks like its a suitably epic size. See a galaxy I think in the background of the end scene with the mozzys.

DizMatt · 08-Jul-2011, 08:40

that has to be the worst, most least tantalising and non-involving trailers i've ever seen!

stand there, hardly move, fire lots with no apparent method and zoom on camera!
right, that's done
the graphics look poor but that's not a bother as it's gameplay that will make or break the game and netcode of course.

nick-fury · 08-Jul-2011, 08:47

Ooooh the weapons have iron sights !

Sin · 08-Jul-2011, 18:35

I loved PS... Really looking forward to this. I think the GFX look ok tbh.

ophiuchus · 08-Jul-2011, 19:21

tbh for me graphics can be be merely OK, so long as they don introduce that stupid culled animation they enforced back in the old days.

FuzzyLogic · 08-Jul-2011, 19:44

It was less than a minute of gameplay, I've seen virgins at their first orgy last longer. From what is there though looks good,if not a massive step ahead of the first one.

It's not much to go from but nonetheless I'll be waiting for more news. Still, I'll be buying the gorram game whether or not it lights up the gaming sphere with giant twinkling lights in the sky made of burning pandas.

Inertiaman · 08-Jul-2011, 20:11

Would swap gfx for scale any day.

nick-fury · 08-Jul-2011, 20:53

Meanwhile, the PlanetSide 2 Fan Faire was a roaring success:

Planetside next was originally going to to be a graphical update to planetside and to make it free to play.

Roundup of info so far. Most interesting link so far I have found is :

http://i.massively.joystiq.com/2011/...ol-huge-battl/

BobbyLeetshots · 10-Jul-2011, 11:05

lets hope its not client side hit detection again or it'll be back to randomly emptying whole clips in to people with no effect then getting run over by a truck thats 3 miles away on your screen

although looking at the trailer and the utterly shitty screenshots and laughable quality wallpapers, they dont seem to be selling it very well.

still gonna buy it like ;D

mr_o · 11-Jul-2011, 15:47

" volumetric clouds where vehicles could fly in and hide in the clouds"

Yes please.

Never really got into this as I was a neocron Junkie at the time, but i had a dabble now and again. Looks very interesting.

Sin · 12-Jul-2011, 16:59

No more sanctuary. Thank god for that, I hated dropping in the realising your 3mins to late for the battle and everyone is moving on...

orly?

neocron was possibly the biggest missed opportunity i have seen in mmo's and even then it was a pretty awesome game despite its flaws

Dave · 14-Jul-2011, 19:39

P.I.M.P alley oh yes

Ya rly.

Beta 3 got me hooked, played it for 3/4 years solid. First Uranus, then Puto and finally settled on Venus.

Notrhing quite got the adrenaline going as much as NC did
