[Squeeky]

EXCITING NEWS, YIPEE!!!!!!!

[Yuyi]

Sorry that marsman asked my question about you crashing into a lake hamma, but it just had to be done :D ;)

[Ludio]

We dont know the date/time yet so I know this may be a bit premature, but if we cant listen to it live then can we hear it later on?

[afex]

it will most likely be available for download from our files section (much like the AGN is now) the day after the interview

[Hamma]

Yes it will be recorded.

[fourleafPS]

Excellent, I will be looking forward to this! :rock:

[mistled]

You know that you're my hero, don't you Hamma??

[Sputty]

This pwns all! You're getting live interviews with devs. WTF?!?!

[Lexington_Steele]

You had better ask my questions. :mad:

j/k, however, I promise not to start or respond to anything political for 5 days for each of my questions that get asked (that could be a total of 15 days). ;)

[Sputty]

:lol:
I don't think you can do it.

[SandTrout]

How will you switch between normal and AP rounds? Will you need to switch clips on your guns or just hit alt-fire?

Will you have access to the ammo types used exclusively by Vanu weapons if you are TR or NC?

What vehichles can Reinforced armor drive/pilot?

Will there or will there not be headshots? We have heard conflicting/ambiguouse reports and I would like to have this issue clarified.

Will Agile armor have any advantage over Reinforced armor?

Will the Different armor types absorb different persentages of damage done? (IE: will someone wearing Rein armor take less Health damage and greater armor damage than someone in agile?)

Will the Reinforced and MAX armors be able to stay under-water indefinately/for extended piriods of time compared to aglie/standard/stealth?

There :p

[SandTrout]

:( so many questions, so little time.

[Incompetent]

hamma, can you set up an area so we can see the questions already asked, so we don't get to many repeats?

[AlkaliNe]

w00t!!! :jawdrop: :jawdrop: this is so uber

hmm. Possibly, we will look into that

[Sputty]

Good idea. That could speed it up alot.

[afex]

repeats tell us that multiple people want to know the same thing, so it is an important question (aka more likely to get asked)

don't worry about asking one someone else already has, just ask YOUR 3 questions.

[Zhor_Prime]

how many questions are you guys going to select to use? or is it going to be a priority type of thing and you just go down the list until dave says he has to go

[Sputty]

They'll select "the best"

[AlkaliNe]

:stupid:

[Hamma]

We dont have a solid amount that we are going to select. heh, depends on the time we have ;)

[Validuz]

/me awaits patiently...

[Yuyi]

We gotta get at least a ETA on this interview :drools:

[Hamma]

hehe, Workin on it ;)

[�io]

Hamma try to get Dave to talk other peeps from the team to come on as well. ;)

Would be sweet if we had like Dave, an artist, a programmer, etc, etc, etc :D

[Sputty]

That would be great. Probably impossible though.

[Zhor_Prime]

you never know. if i was one of the artists/programmer type of people working on it i would be pretty happy to join in on the interview.

[Sputty]

They're probably really busy right now though

[�io]

Still it's worth a shot, if we have Dave why not try to get him to get more people in there. :)

[Sputty]

Yeah, it'd be really good but I'm still happy with Dave and he probably knwos everything about the game basically so there wouldn't always be a huge point in getting others. It'd be really nice though.

[�io]

Well yeah having him is awesome and i'm sure we're all wetting our pants thinking about the next AGN shoutcast but it would be cool to have different peeps from different sections. Dave surely knows a lot but an artist will obviously be more aware of the graphics side of the game and will also be able to give another opinion on the game and stuff. :)

[Hamma]

btw we have gotten a ton of questions, keep em comin! :D

[�io]

So Hamma you gonna try and get Dave to sucker his buddies into coming on too? :D

[Hamma]

That's up to him ;)

[stick100]

To however set this us: Thank you.

I love the way you are taking questions. It gave me alot of time to think about what was really importannt, a very nice system indeed.

[Zatrais]

To Europeans:

Lets all push for some info regarding PS and europe. I for one want to know if S.O.E will run the servers or someone else and if it will be seriously delayed for Europe.. sure theres alott more but i for one would appreciate anny info regarding PS and Europe =)

[RageMaster]

Gameplay wise, Smoke seems to be the best dev POC, and ceirtainly the most in tune with this community. Besides which, I dont know what you would ask an artist or a programmer, unless you're curious as to how the game was made.

And personally I'd much preferr to learn how it plays ;-) Its cool this is going ahead.

And likewise, for the sake of europeans (myself being one), I'd like to hear about any proposed release dates or server openings specifically for us. Basically, the consequences of playing PlanetSide for europeans :-D

Greatly appreciated.
