PS2 NOT going to PS3, and new pics inside!

[demonicale]

http://www.incgamers.com/News/28759/new-planetside-2-screens-mmofps-ftw

Did any of us really think it would actually come out on the PS3?, Honestly? ..

One of the new pics looks like a TR soldier with a jet pack of sort's? ... Intresting

[cashfoyogash]

I wanna be the first to say that in the picture with the jetpack you also see a TR soldier equipped with a NC rifle of some type... weapon swapping maybe some how?

[Raymac]

Hot damn, the new screenshots are pretty. Also, does the concept art confirm female characters?

[FIREk]

This... Is actually not fake! I think I love you! :3

It actually paid to stay up until 1 AM! ;)

[Tigersmith]

I was going to post this about an hr ago but our screenshot database had issues :(

[SKYeXile]

The TR backpack(not jetpack) looks terrible. Make it look like the current one.

[Hamma]

Updated on front page. :)

http://www.planetside-universe.com/news-new-screenshots-and-console-news-2529.htm

[IceyCold]

That is clearly a TR soldier holding a Gauss Rifle.

Well, looks like weapon scavenging made it in after all.

[FIREk]

Take note of the backpack on one of the chars. Also, notice how all the armor types are similar.
The "Rexo" looks like Agile only with thigh and elbow guards, and a different helmet.
Now we have some class with a backpack, possibly an engineer.
THEN you have the TR soldier with a Gauss.

If you ask me, it looks like, as long as you're not an Infiltrator or inside a MAX suit, you'll possibly be able to swap loadouts off dead characters, like in the Battlefield series. It would only swap some extra protection, backpack and maybe the helmet, much like in Battlefield. Talk about flexibility and "seamlessly switching between roles"! :)

Also, the TR Infil... Hot stuff. :)

[MgFalcon]

That is clearly a TR soldier holding a Gauss Rifle.

Well, looks like weapon scavenging made it in after all.

Ohhhhhhhh this makes me soooo happy!

[FIREk]

Moving on, the TR soldier with the Gauss rifle has a "noobish" color pattern on his chestplate and shoulder guards, much like with the different-BR color schemes in PS1. :)

[Sirisian]

Did any of us really think it would actually come out on the PS3?, Honestly?
nah most of us knew that. The real question was "are they planning a PS4 launch or tie-in into Planetside 2?"

[cashfoyogash]

Ohhhhhhhh this makes me soooo happy!

I lay claim to noticing this first.

[IceyCold]

I'm beginning to wonder...

Matt clearly said no weapon swapping and then there was a pretty big storm on the forums about it; to the point several threads were started and many comments in threads on other topics.

Now we see weapons being held by factions other than their standard faction...

So... so does this mean SOE is... LISTENING?!?!?!

This is the end of the world.

[Talek Krell]

Maybe they felt like kit switching, at least with some of the more standard weapons, wasn't as much of a balance deal as stealing a tank?

[Duddy]

Medic Backpacks, Weapon Scavenging and more importantly...

Goggles.

[Raymac]

I'd be wary at reading into too much of these screenshots and drawing conclusions about the mechanics of the game, like pulling weapons from fallen enemies. However, it is an encouraging sign that they are at least toying with the idea.

EDIT: I actually am pretty surprised that it's not going to be on PS3. I would have bet good money after Smedley's reaction to the question during Fan Faire that they were planning to do what they did for DCUO. I guess I was wrong...for now.

[BorisBlade]

The game is still just internally playable, and still kinda early, they can put any weapon they want on any character they want. Dont read into it that we will be allowed to do it once all systems are in place. Them playin around with em doesnt affect balance or all the upgrades/resource/class limit issues etc that they are concerned about. The TR usin a gauss at this stage of development doesnt mean a thing.

The tr cloaker chick is lookin hawt. Now if we could get some pics of some VS who arent just in PJ's, and some vehicles. I'd be pretty stoked.

[demonicale]

I was going to post this about an hr ago but our screenshot database had issues :(

I was wondering why it was'nt on the front page or talked about in the forums.But all is well, we're all here for our love of Planetside :)

[Aractain]

The female looks excellent. Wonder if they have made the 3d yet?

(Of the first 'new' screen) The shoulder guard of the jetback dude is red and the guy on the left has grey so...... greybies!!! YAY!! Where is my punisher so I may wave it?

[CutterJohn]

That is clearly a TR soldier holding a Gauss Rifle.

Well, looks like weapon scavenging made it in after all.

Or its an alpha screenshot.


The TR backpack(not jetpack) looks terrible. Make it look like the current one.

Its a medic pack.




Also, note the bolt driver: http://www.incgamers.com/images/screenshots/28942orig.jpg

[Aractain]

The tr cloaker chick is lookin hawt.

He is totaly correct! And it pays to keep scrolling down a page to the end! :)

Also vanus only need pjs.

[CutterJohn]

Its clearly a medic (the + sign).

pssst: http://www.incgamers.com/images/screenshots/28945orig.jpg

[FIREk]

Also, note the bolt driver: http://www.incgamers.com/images/screenshots/28942orig.jpg

Am I he only one who noticed the bolt driver when I first watched the trailer? ;) I haven't seen anyone mention it, or the Repeater, on the forums.

Its clearly a medic (the + sign).

You do know there's more than two new images and one shows the finely sculpted hind parts of a TR cloaker, right? ;)

[Aractain]

pssst: http://www.incgamers.com/images/screenshots/28945orig.jpg

Okay makes more sense now lol!

The cloaker was invisible to me!!

[FIREk]

There's something else worth noticing. The NC soldier, the one summarily executed by the brave TR soldier (and rightly so!) seems to be holding a heavy-looking pistol. Doesn't look like the Repeater from the trailer, it's also doesn't look like it's a pocket shotgun. A high-caliber semi-automatic NC-only pistol, I suppose?

[Galapogos]

Seeing as we pick every piece of media we get to the bone in order to draw conclusions about the game mechanics, and also that I would imagine they are pretty mindful of what they show in the screenshots they release, I would be surprised if they mislead us like that. But, then again maybe they aren't as cautious as I thought.

Yeah I noticed that, its too far away but my first though was gold plated DE style handgun... but thats probably not right.

[FIREk]

Soon-to-be cash microtransaction shop vanity item, perhaps? :P

I'm also under the impression that the TR Cycler visible on one of the screens (the Cycler that kills that NC) is:
a) slightly redesigned,
b) customized,
c) differently lit,
in a way that makes its lower body look more steel-like, instead of dark and carbon-fiber-ish, like in the earlier screens. The whole stock is now black as well, and the front grip seems to be brighter.

[Aractain]

You appear to be correct

The motion blur shots seem to be from the ealier trailer right? Is it different design or customisation?


http://img607.imageshack.us/img607/4184/28948orighhmmmm.jpg

[Lunarchild]

Customization Ho! Now definitely have more awesome questions to ask :)

[Highwind]

Looking good so far, but with all of the TR focused screenshots I can't help but notice the lack of 'black' in their armor to really go with the red. I hope as you rank up your BR TR will become a lot more Black/Red focused and lose a lot of their grey like they do currently in PS1.

[BorisBlade]

Funny people actually thought there was a possibility of this endin up on PS3. No way in hell these super outdated consoles could do it. Its not just the super old graphics chips these things use (nvidia 7800gt approx on the ps3) but also the lack of enough memory, video and standard memory both. And a host of other issues, just make it too much of a hassle for some aspects and impossible for others. Its one thing playin a crappy 12 player deathmatch on a teeny tiny map and playin with 1200 players in a gigantic world.

[EASyEightyEight]

I'm getting the impression that part of their scheme will be based on their BR, and their class will have some additional influence as well, like medics will be predominately white to be easier to identify as allies... or key targets as enemies.

Side-note: I could swear the TR in this image (http://www.incgamers.com/images/screenshots/28948orig.jpg) were live-action photographed and shopped in if I didn't know what Planetside was.

Another thing I should mentioned: in a prior image, the TR helmets are the same between the masked and unmasked version, there's just an added face plate over the helmet on the "rexo" armor, which may or may not simply be a customizable feature not necessarily tied to the armor's protective value.

Now if only we could get proper views of the NC and VS armors, even though I think the VS armors are going to be skin-tight, crisis suit inspired armors.

[Graywolves]

The one backpack looks like it's for picnics.


I'm interested in bringing some nomnoms with me to battle.

[Sentrosi]

Definitely seems to me that you'll be able to tell what specialization a soldier is from a distance.
Which is great news...for sniper teams!
"Got a field medic making his way to a MAX unit."
"Where at?"
"Two clicks to the left"
"Shots away!"
"Got him. Next T.O.O?"

[Zulthus]

I like the heavily detailed soldier models. It all looks... so real.

Also, if you thought this game even had a chance of hitting the PS3, such a simple and cheap console could not run a game half the scale of PS2. They tried it with MAG; a massive lagfest, and very barebones as they focused all of their resources into the "scale":rofl: instead of the gameplay. Only PCs can handle games such as this.

[Talek Krell]

It holds the various medicinal roots and acupuncture needles! :D

[WarChimp130]

I think it's cool medics might be ending up with their own armor, I wonder if other classes will have their own armor variants.

[Bags]

I need a new keyboard.

[DreaM]

Everyone's concerned that their PCs are going to suffer when BF3 comes out, I'm a lot more concerned about Planetside 2. Very high-poly models with extremely high res textures, combined with all the other post processing going on and anti-aliasing?

Combine that with possibly 50+ things on your screen at ones makes for a chug fest.

[SgtMAD]

I find all the conjecture over any picture we manage to get a look at humorous.

if you go back and look at the art and vids from PS at this stage ,nothing shown was ever in the game,we saw all these crazy looking buildings and other crap never put in the game.

[Sirisian]

Very high-poly models with extremely high res textures, combined with all the other post processing going on and anti-aliasing?
Look again. You can see the triangles on the models. You're overestimating the actual amount. They're just very well made and textured so it looks like a lot.

[Furret]

This makes me happy.

Graphics look AMAZING, as long as the gameplay is up to par, should be the best game of the millenia!

[mrkdilkington]

I really hope the final game doesn't have motion blur or at least can be disabled.

[Goku]

BronzeElemental must be going hitting his head on his keyboard after reading this :).

[Lonehunter]

There's one screen with a viewpoint behind an NC guy, looking down at a few TR running to the tower, and off to the left by the rock it looks like the dead body of a child.

I'm imagining things right?

[InternetZombie]

Also, note the bolt driver: http://www.incgamers.com/images/screenshots/28942orig.jpg

Looks more like a heavy scout rifle to me, just with the square scope and all

[Grimster]

That is clearly a TR soldier holding a Gauss Rifle.

Well, looks like weapon scavenging made it in after all.

LOL

Talk about jumping the gun here :)

Higby has clearly said that weapon scavenging won't be in for balance issues and a number of other reasons. So I think it is safe to say that this is probably the result of a internal test. Hell it could even be a NC soldier because they decided to revamp the NC texture or whatever and didn't want him to be nude. :)

[Tatwi]

I tell ya. PS2 will be a launch title on the PS4. Just you wait and see. ;)

[Bags]

I hope not. I don't want to wait years for PS2.

[Zulthus]

I hope not. I don't want to wait years for PS2.

If anything, it'd be a dumbed-down port featuring 128vs128 players released 3 years after PC. I can never see consoles being made to where you can swap out parts; just because hardware developers likely wouldn't develop aftermarket parts for consoles. And, because of this, consoles would never be able to handle games on a massive scale such as PlanetSide.

I'd like a link to where he said they're removing weapon scavenging. All he said is it makes it hard to balance. Something shouldn't be removed simply because it isn't a walk in the park to balance.

This is ignoring the fact that weapon scavenging adds no balance issues.

"Q: Why was veh hacking removed?

-Couple reasons, the one you mention is one, another is because we really want to push the empires to be very different in PS2, and getting ahold of enemy weapons and vehicles makes it a lot more of a balance nightmare.


Note that he didn't say 'its not', or 'its just vehicles'. He was asked why it was removed, gave a couple reasons, and also brought weapons into it too.

Either they've changed their positions or he was simply stating it does cause balance issues (which they don't).

DID I SPOT A JETPACK???

Did I spot someone who hasn't read the sticky thread at the top of this forum??? :p

[Aractain]

Thats some odd lighting. Brown to silver and silver to black?

Also it appears to be missing the magazine but the angle is really bad.

[FIREk]

I think they didn't want to add weapon swapping because they wanted to make the empires' stats different from each other. For instance, a TR soldier could have less armor, but a higher run/sprint speed. Now if he picked up a Jackhammer, he would be able to close distance quicker, making him balanced with an MCG (somehow), but (somehow) imbalanced with a different empire's empire-specific weapon.

They may have assumed that making the empires THAT much different from each other is pointless (and a balance nightmare), and therefore opted to make all characters of the same class identical.
Thus, there are no balance issues with a TR having an NC/VS weapon. It also makes the game more fun, allows for switching kit without spawning a Cycler on an NC body (so you have an appropriate gun for your class and empire), or leaving your weapon on you all the time, allowing you to puck up Medic gear and keep with an MCG.

Im i the only one that thinks that the yellow "sunglasses"

When the PS4 is released it will be far more powerful vs the current PS3. I see no reason why it couldn't handle PS2 to be honest. The rumored Wii2 specs are interesting and if Sony's are better it will have no issues run this game.

[FastAndFree]

Must be the martial arts class

[Malorn]

Either they've changed their positions or he was simply stating it does cause balance issues (which they don't).

There's other possibilities...
1) It's alpha and they were messing around, comparing weapon characteristics, etc.
2) The screenshot pre-dates the decision to remove scavenging.
3) It may be kit scavenging, not weapon scavenging. Kit scavenging makes a lot more sense given class restrictions on weapons. BF has kit scavenging and is a heavy influence on PS2.

And weapon scavenging can affect the game quite a lot balance-wise. Hearing a gauss rifle and knowing it must have come from a NC is quite different from it also being some TR dicking around. Same goes for all the other empire-specific weapons, and you can also derive class information from just the sound of a weapon. That isnt' necessarily the case if there's weapon scavenging.

It was a big difference for me playing Day of Defeat back in the day when they added weapon scavenging. I could no longer rely nearly as much on sound to tell me much more than someone was nearby. I could no longer discern friend-or-foe purely by sound. I know it isn't realistic to use sound as IFF but from a gameplay perspective it was a skill differentiator. That differentiator was significantly reduced when they added that.

Some weapons are distinctly tied to empires, like in PS1 it was the MAX suits. If you heard a scatmax there was no other possibility than an NC max was in the vicinity. In PS2 since there is no vehicle jacking the same will be true for tanks and other empire-specific weapons. You hear a vanguard or its cannon you know an NC is driving it. Making the same binding for infantry weapons also makes sense.

In addition to mundane but important things like weapon/player giveaways with not having scavenging, they could also have distinct and different empire-wide balancing. For example, they could balance one empire assuming you had a set of classes on-hand. Like one NC class might use a certain close-range shotgun which doesn't have long-range viability. To compensate for this a different NC class weapon might be more effective at long-range than the other empire counterparts. Likewise perhaps one of the common TR weapons has more close-range viability. So by having one TR loot the NC shotgun and the others using the other close-range guns the TR group could gain an edge that wasn't accounted for.

This in and of itself isn't a balance issue because theoretically all empires could get all combinations, but the reality of it is that in practical use it depends on the characteristics of the weapons and how they are distributed/used amongst the empires. Being able to mix and match these across empires creates more combinations to consider and might make one empire easier to achieve the more broken combinations due to the nature of their weaponry and the fact that they can scavenge a few things from their foes.

Point being that in ways not strictly clear-cut (like binding certain sounds to specific empires). It does create more balance combinations to consider which make sit harder, but it could create combinations that certain empires have a much easier time obtaining than others which would create a balance issue when theoretically it shouldn't exist.

[kaffis]

More TR? And shooting an NC in the back with his own weapon, to boot?

This upcoming trailer that they keep promising us had better be a 6 minute epic love letter to the Vanguard and Jackhammer, at this rate. I demand NC representation!

I think the VS has seen the least representation. But they did get a glimpse at one of their most iconic figures - the magrider.

I'd like to see more vehicles in general. Are there even buggies in PS2? I hope so. They've mentioned tanks and aircraft and ATVs but I haven't caught so much as a word about buggies.

The teaser trailer had some Vanu in it, in multiple armor types, IIRC. I think all we've seen of NC so far appears to be Standard, and the Gauss Rifle. Neither of which were particlarly exciting to behold (since they're both pretty blandly "realistic gun/flak armor" looking), hence my dissatisfaction. I won't argue that NC have at least had more screen-time than Vanu so far, but it's been mostly either from the first person perspective (looking down a Gauss at TR), or getting shot in the back by squads of other empires looking all brave and rugged.

I'm not sure whether or not I want to see gimp suit-like headgear for TR cloakers again. It looks professional and I think proper goggles make it look un-stupid, plus the visible face is nice, character-wise. On the other hand, it's the gimp suit again. :P

I hope covering up the forehead, leaving only the lower face exposed, will be available. That would make quite a difference.

[Aractain]

After a complaint about the female cloaker's concept art chest I inspected the breasts and came to the conclusion that they are perfectly fine and need no alterations or manipulation at all.

However... she is not wearing heels. This glaring oversight into the stealth gameplay will not stand! 6 inch heels with a sexy ribbon winding up the leg help blood circulation during intense missions inside an NC instalation. Without the height advantage of an extra 6 inchs TR cloakers will not be able to peek over walls to see what they have to sneak past. This needs to be fixed!

Nah. Better yet is headgear that has eye area covered with a mask contiguous with a tight-fitting head cover that does not extend above the area in the eye sockets. Looks cool with realistic hair out the top of it.

(Indeed. Unbeknownst to them but beknownst to us, big sexy heels (stripper shoes are awesome) on cloakers was an application of comedy. I don't actualy think that TR cloakers need them at all - but keep it just between the two of us. After all its far better if her feet are supple and easy to control... so she can climb poles and stuff to reach places less travelled.)

[Mastachief]

To put this game on any console present or future would have been terrible mistake, if soe are serious about development. I don't think that the PS3 could even handle planetside 1 and the ps4 would be pretty difficult to develop for 3/4 years on from its release if the game is to last 10/15 years or what ever SOE's ambitions for constant development if they are aiming to develop the EVE of the mmofps genre.

That's out already?!
Of course! PS2 is ancient news man

Jetpacks on a PS3? Now that's crazy!
No! Jetpacks on PS2!

and on and on ad nauseum

[Baneblade]

nah most of us knew that. The real question was "are they planning a PS4 launch or tie-in into Planetside 2?"

Why was that the real question? Sony won't be pushing the PS4 until they can afford to take the hit a new console brings.

Playing Planetside on PS would become something out of the three stooges
(...)

Or just:
"Hey, have you got PS2 for your PS3?"
"No, I have the 80GB model"

Also, who is the tank?

[Infektion]

That looks like a SIG SG 55x model assault rifle, WHY IS THE TR USING MAH GUNZ?!

So, i'm guessing the jackhammer might be more of an auto shottie as opposed to the 3 barrel cluster fuck shot? I'm really admiring the modern (of today) or the "retrofitting" of the weapons :groovy:
