I don't know if any of you watch that gaming TV channel, called G4, but they have a show called cinematech where they just make movies of games and show them in a little 30 min. show. Well one of the recent episodes had a movie of planetside, lot of kool sceens. Showed a NC who had stolen a Vanu pistol shooting. Had a TR MAX just blowing the hell out of a lighting tank. But the bigest thing was it showed that MAX ability where they can sacrifice turn radius for speed. It was moving FAST. I mean this MAX was just cruisin along. Check out your TV guides to see when Cinematech comes on if you have G4 TV. It was good to see the game without the grainyness of .mpg and lemme tell you, it looked niiice hehe.

All? I don't remember seeing anything about a MAX running, or a TR max for that matter.

[edit]
Oh... THOSE videos. Heh. Those are old. And whoever was in that Lightening was an idiot. Light tanks survive on manuverability... sitting there and taking a beating isn't gonna work. As you may have noticed.

I don't get G4TV either and I live in CA, so don't feel too bad. I do get ZDTV/TechTV though.

I heard that movie was simply a re-compilation of some old media. I hope so, because the graphics seemed pretty crappy. Stuff like guys "sliding" while walking, no leg movement at all on lateral moves, and the TR max seemed to hover over the ground when cresting the hill.

I'm excited about the game... Just hope the video referenced doesn't portray the current state of the product.

Cheers,

The description described the old vids, which were released in April and December.
