The Big News

The New News Is Out!!!!

....













New Conts!!!! Hooray!

[Rbstr]

i hope none of tehe onld ones are removed, just changed to make the unused spots used, i like the beautiful scenery even if its not used anyway

[starrider]

yes that was my concern, the big conts are fun too.

[Eldanesh]

Then its 13$ a month for ut-sized maps... :(

I loved the big continents and BWG's.

[starrider]

no, the new conts are free, no paying for them, and i believe he said most of the old conts would stay.

[EarlyDawn]

I think I speak for most TR when I say: Let Ishundar bake and sink into the sea..

[MrCovertMan]

I speak for the infils when i say: Let hossin go the way of atlantis
I speak for the whole community of people who like to defend when I say: Die cyssor die! Burn in hell!!!!!

[JetRaiden]

I think foseral can sink for all I care, its a boring version of cyssor. or maybe ceryshen for all the hours of hiking I had to do.

[OfaLoaf]

Let Ceryshen live. I want one of the desert Conts gone.

[buttfour9567]

i luv big bridge battles keep cyssor...get rid of the snow conts....2 many bugs there

[EarlyDawn]

I want a fuckin' Far Cry themed Battle island. Small, tropical, with ruins. Imagine fighting on the beautiful sand and through the jungle..

[Lonehunter]

I'd like another Volcanic Continent

[Rbstr]

i like all hte conts they should not get rid of any of them period, But they should look into doing liek hayoo has with urban places and the ground capture type stuff. and add the samller ones on the side.

[EarlyDawn]

To be honest I'm just concerned this is just going to take 5+ months to roll out =/

[starrider]

nope, its in patch 2.9 they're working on 2.7 so it shouldnt be terribly long.

[AztecWarrior]

Urban, urban, urban. I want to see some house-to-house warfare here.

(Caverns don't apply, nobody goes there.)

[Cauldron Borne]

The new conts SEEM cool, and that they will come out relativly soon is nice, but...




I WANT MY PROMISED URBAN WARFARE, DAMMIT!

[Gammit10]

I speak for the infils when i say: Let hossin go the way of atlantis
I speak for the whole community of people who like to defend when I say: Die cyssor die! Burn in hell!!!!!

I LOVE Hossin. Hossin + on foot + phoenix = many dead MAXs and vehicles.

[Headrattle]

Keep hossin.

And it won't be UT maps. I don't think that UT maps are 2K across. Are they?

[Wraithlord]

have you played unreal 2k4? the assault maps are pretty damn big

[Lartnev]

I <3 Cyssor though :(

The new continents could add so much strategic potential and gameplay, like houses chokepoints, bridge crossings...... can't wait :D

And yes, Ishunder can burn in Hell.

[AltaEgo]

Urban, urban, urban. I want to see some house-to-house warfare here.

(Caverns don't apply, nobody goes there.)

LMAO. I agree, angry neighbours :p

[Acaila]

The Cyssor lattice is fucked. The number of bases on Cyssor is fucked. Those stalemate bridge battles are fucked. How easy back hacking is on Cyssor is fucked. Itan and Kaang are the 2 most fucked bases on Auraxis. Fuck Cyssor.

I am also not a big fan of Oshur.

[SandTrout]

The caverns aren't even real urban warfare. It's just more of the same spawn-camping. City layout is in a logical, planed form. The caves are random crap that proves the archetects of the Ancient Vanu were on some form of crack.

I want a realy URBAN enviroment with sniper roosts everywhere, but reasonable layout.

[Lartnev]

Those stalemate bridge battles are fucked.

I believe the word you are looking for is fantastic :D

[Diddy Mao]

Now everywhere is gonna be a zerg -_-

[Lartnev]

have you played unreal 2k4? the assault maps are pretty damn big

Not to mention awesome :)

May I re-iterate that only a couple of the continents will be leaving us... let us hope the devs take the least used ones.

[Phaden]

Im puzzled as i was on vacation for the weekend, and i come back to these new battle conts. Where was the announcement, as i wanna read the official news or at least get more detail. Im DLing the latest AGN, is it in there?

[Lartnev]

The announcement is currently an exclusive from the last Ask the Devs. It will not go onto the official site yet as SOE's PR machine hasn't finished with it yet.

And you will enjoy the last Ask the Devs :D

[Phaden]

Ok, thanks for clearing that up. I figured it was in there but just havent had the time to listen to it yet.

[keam02]

yay...or maybe no...I am going to come back, and I hope these things will be bigger then ut2k4 maps. I really havent heard much from this, but I love the idea. They should have atleast one with a certain bridge that you HAVE to cross, because I love bridge battles, back when surge didnt suck Id surge underwater across all the way and hide, knife people in the water and stuff, oh fun!

I used to do that except with an MCG. It was so fun.
