Indeed I would like to meet other PS players. My friend who played as FredTomson on NC is also going to PAX. I'll check with him to see if he maybe has any interest.

Tigersmith
2012-03-01, 12:57 PM
Maybe a slight of hope the Devs will come to PAX East

Even if a few came out for a meet up that would be pretty nice to see. I understand at this point there will be no dedicated booth, but if we're lucky maybe a presentation of sorts.

Tigersmith

I saw your tweets to TainaR there Tiger, you should play the heart strings card. Tell her there's a poor crippled child who's only wish is to meet the PS 2 crews at Pax East,

the next step is to find a child to cripple

Goku
2012-03-02, 12:10 PM
There is one person from SOE being there in the Damage Report -- How Crisis Management Defines Your Game and it is Linda Carlson [Sr. Director of Global Community Relations, Sony Online Entertainment]. Maybe more will go with her?

Hamma
2012-03-02, 01:25 PM
She is the head Community Manager - she attends tons of these things.

I'll be there Saturday. I'll meet up with some nerds.

2012-03-15, 02:00 AM
I would sell my soul to chat with the creative minds of PS2 at PAX East.

On another note, PAX East/Prime would be a great platform to reach out to those who otherwise haven't heard of Planetside. Even if there isn't any presence from SOE, a great way to help spread the word would just be to bring up "Hey, have you heard of this Planetside 2 game?" to the person next to you while you're in line for a panel or booth.

Does this mean I can actually meet you dweebs and score myself an assault charge or 2?

Hamma

Well that's a good way to start a relationship with new friends. :p

Are we doing this? Getting close now.

Captain1nsaneo
2012-03-19, 11:18 AM
Did I not mention this in the GDC thread? Wow, shame on me.

So like while at the meet up at GDC I may have heard from someone who may or may not be on the PS2 team that someone may or may not be up near the city this takes place at.
(wink wink nudge nudge)
Draw your own conclusions.

No meet up as far as I know atm. I am going to the future panel though. Going to have to get there early too.

Eerie
2012-04-02, 12:54 PM
Hah, I started another thread in PS2 that got closed:( but I think we should meetup after the future of online video games panel at one of the bars.

You guys will need to be really loud at the panel to help me beat out the fan bases for these other games! Bring bullhorns!

Goku
2012-04-02, 05:20 PM
What time do you guys want to get to the panel room to wait in line? I was thinking around 4:00 - 4:30 if we want to get good seats.

im gonna be there 2 hrs before..this panel was very popular last year. And last year I met some planetside players in line. so the wait was actually very fun. I also left the line multiple times to drink beer then hop back in lol

Higby; what's it like having an entourage? lol

I can even see promotional potential with this...You could get all the PS2 guys some NC yellow T-Shirts and enter and exit venues like a boxer at the big fight...Then you could send T-Ray some pics to make him jealous he didn't go! :D

I'll be at that panel! But I can't really meet up, I'm one of the enforcers that is setting up that panel and watching while I guard the doors.

BUT I'll definitely be at the Curse party Saturday night! That'd be a good place to meet up as well.

This ended up being quite fun. Found Higby and other PS2 team members at the hotel lobby. Met all them and had a good talk with a few fellow PS players. Got some free PS2 t shirts and "VIP" bracelets for the Curse party tomorrow night. Lets see how that goes.

Had just about a whole front row of PS players at the panel too.

Hey PSU I was the enforcer that had to kick you out of the main ballroom. It was good to meet Higby and AWP and the rest there, I'm sorry I couldn't find anyone at the Curse party.

I couldn't remember my old PS1 login so I made a new account. I look forward to spending more time on these forums!

I'm hoping we can get a mini-meet up together when I come back to Boston later this year. We won't have PlanetSide devs of course unless we kidnap some but it would be cool to meet a group of folks from the community and have some dinner and beers.
