Anyone else with a March issure of CGW? On pp 20-21 theres a new full spread ad for Planetside. It's also got some new info on vehicles:

Thresher - Flux Cannon + strafing (not really new)

Prowler - 100mm cannon, twin 12mm chainguns on upper turret

The ad's pretty cool. I'll scan it if Hamma or any other mods don't have it available.

On the new side, I saw a 4 foot tall Planetside advertisement stand on sunday, in an Electronics Boutique. IT looked very similar to the box cover (complete with Vanu MAX).

i think he meant the info about the prowler was unwritten, not the vehicle itself.

and by all means, i'd like to see it :D so scan away! it might be the same ads that were in the january CGW, but they might be different.

It's not the one(s) in the Jan issue. That had the 3 ads with different factions on each, right?

Scanning now, will put them up right away - or, better, someone can give me an email to send the pics to, don't think my host will allow much usage.

Its too bad that its only in CGW, PC Gamer had a Planetside add listed in their advertising index for the inside of the front cover, but instead it was used for Everquest Online Adventures.

WOW!
Look at the TR MAX in the 1st scan..... that has to be the flak guns but damn 4 barrels?

i can't WAIT to blow you NC and VS pilots out of the sky whit a barrage of flak from mah 4 guns! =D

w00tha hehe

(those dosn't look like chainguns and it can't be the AV max because thats stated as dual nade launchers)

That just means that we will get more beps and ceps faster for having less players on our side so, it's not so bad. ;) Did anyone see the ads for Planetside in the January 2003 issue of PC Gamer? Three full page ads, they looked awsome.
