Woo \o/

Miss the original, looking forward to this now, even if it turns out disappointing it's getting a purchase.

Gogogadget Barrys Squad!

Long overdue that Sony listened and followed up on a game with great potential, especially now the online gaming market is so much bigger than it was all those years ago.

 

[chipper]

could be interesting but like alot of people i swore id never touch another soe product after star wars itll have to be something very special indeed considering star wars the old republic is just round the corner

plus theres rumours of a blizz mmofps apparently first ive heard of it but its there

 

[Dreamor]

Good to hear, I would sub this.

Thanks for the link!

That game is 3-4 years away and a little like PSide, I can't remember the name now but it will be a long time before they finish it.

Project Titan, not much detail's been released but there's apparently some separate social side to it aside from the potential PvP portion. Too early to tell yet really.

If these are the models we'll see in game and not just renders, PS:N is going to look rather spiffy at least.

PlanetSide Universe, your complete source for everything PlanetSide#

Like it or not, there aren't any Biffers in the game either.

Edit: including the PSU faq http://www.planetside-universe.com/p-planetside-next-faq-66.htm

 

[Scouse]

I'm sorta sold. Really liked the idea of the game but the fact that you couldn't "win" made it feel pointless after a month.

Also, I too have said I'd "never" buy another Sony game. It'll have to be pretty shiny

 

[Jupitus]

North West corner for galaxy pick up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TdC]

as if anyone would willingly let you fly

 

[mr.Blacky]

we would let him fly but with our fingers hovering around the ejection button!

 

[Jupitus]

Best Galaxy pilot, EVAR!!!!

 

[FuzzyLogic]

SHame I lost me images of Jups expert Galaxy skills, else they'd be gracing this thread right about now...

 

[mr.Blacky]

oh I remember him crashing a galaxy of randoms cause he was not too sober

I do miss making crunchies in my vanguard

 

[Vae]

With me gunning - or vice versa

 

[FuzzyLogic]

So the Spring release was bunkum (no surprise there).

On the bright side though there's this: PlanetSide2: Coming Soon!.


"PlanetSide 2 is the only first person shooter that delivers truly epic, massive combat on a scale never before seen in stunning, breathtaking detail. Be a part of explosive action in a futuristic world with forces ranging from tactical squads to thousand player armies all taking place in real-time on enormous open-world continents."

I'll give it a miss, landing upside down is not fun despite what jup says

 

[SilverHood]

Ah man, Planetside was ace! Until they nerfed the Lancer anyway.

This was the BarrysWorld VS Outfit:

PlanetSide - My PlanetSide - Outfit

 

[Vae]

Pah this was the real Barrysquad!

PlanetSide - My PlanetSide - Outfit

 

[mr.Blacky]

indeed Vae! down with the VS! if only cause the VS tanks couldnt make crunchies

 

[mr.Blacky]

so who is going to play it? (dead thread but release date 27th?)

 

[Jupitus]

I might give it a go, on a casual basis

 

[Soazak]

so who is going to play it? (dead thread but release date 27th?)

27th of when? I thought it was still in beta for a while yet?

 

[Hawkwind]

looks like they are rushing the release a bit. SOE is a big fail for me but give this one a go. Although that will be after I get a couple of chars levelled up in GW2

 

[Aada]

The game has a long long way to go yet before it's released.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Will wait a few weeks/months for reviews(peer also) etc, but definetaly interested as i never got to the first one.

 

[Cyradix]

It's still in the tech test part at the moment.
They'll open the test again today for a second week of testing.
After that comes closed beta...
Still waaay to early to talk about release
And they have really rough testing hours for us EU's
Beta Server Availability:
Tuesday July 24th through Friday, July 27th:
2:00 PM PT - 10:00 PM PT (11:00 PM CEST/9:00 PM GMT - 7:00 AM CEST/5:00 AM GMT)

 

[Lakih]

I managed to somehow get in the closed beta. Test times are rough for us EU players but sometimes they keep the servers up for quite some time. Seems pretty good so far.

 

[Yoni]

Mr Blacky i am tempted if it means being able to annoy you by continually stabbing your max for hours and hours however I will avoid Jups gal at all costs

 

[Access Denied]

Thousand player armies all fighting in massive open worlds. I imagine you'd need an absolute beast of a PC to play that properly. Sounds interesting though.
