These are looking like in engine shots..

[Trolltaxi]

3 seater?

[WiteBeam]

Pretty cool stripes.
Man, that tech plant is gigantic.

[RSphil]

that looks class.

[Kipper]

I love the look of that tech plant in the background. Screw the liberator, if people can get up and on those structures at the top that will be epic :)

[basti]

2 Late Hamma! 2 damn late! :P

[TheRagingGerbil]

Huge tech plant is huge!

[Hamma]

2 Late Hamma! 2 damn late! :P

Not really I'm the boss ;) I just bent space and time.

This one should have a separate thread I suspect it will gather quite a bit of discussion.

[Thoreaux]

I'm mostly indifferent to the empire-specific planes.

But this? I want this.

[Bruttal]

that thing looks bad ass just sayin

[bullet]

Beautiful, good job team! I'm just confused how most of the upper complex is going to be used by troops lol.

[Red Ketchup]

They censored something between the words "Tech Plant" and the Vanu icon.

[waldizzo]

They censored something between the words "Tech Plant" and the Vanu icon.

My guess is that it's the name of the base.

[BigBossMonkey]

He also blurred out playernames again in this image (same as the moon one)

[Sabrak]

Oh man, that thing looks as badass as badassery can possibly get.

And the wings! They rotate with the engines, fucking cool!

Are there community members among us that are in the alpha and the team is protecting their identity?

So we just need to check who doesn't comment on this screenie in the next hour or so but would normally be expected to do so, and then we'll know

Ah, the great Beta Tester/Witch Hunt of PSU.

That would make me mad, because im not one of them! :mad:

[Baron]

1. The entire tech plant design looks like a berthing dock for something massive (battle cruiser?)

2. From the main structure to the farthest right "strut" there are two connectors...the top one appears to have glass/windows, as if you get to run around inside.

[BigBossMonkey]

That would make me mad, because im not one of them! :mad:

That is just what the beta tester would say.

And this SS is Vanu... As is the other one...

CLEARLY IT IS BASTI! WE MUST BURN HIM!

[SuperMorto]

f ff ff ff f f ffff f f f ff........

Im sorry that's all I can say.

You're under NDA?

It's a giant battle robot, don't you see it? Where the right hand tail-fin-wing-thing is, they look like feet :)

Obviously no BFR's, but that doesn't mean they can't try and use them to be funny....

[Mechzz]

That would make me mad, because im not one of them! :mad:

so if you're not one of them, why did you edit out "posted from my iphone at SOE San Diego" at the bottom of your post?

We will find the heretics/lucky blighters......

[SGTalon]

Interesting. The wings and engines look a lot like the NASA Puffin Personal Vehicle.

I like the looks of it. I hope they have a Gal/Lib cert like they did in PS1.

Once again, can't wait.

[SurgeonX]

Looks pretty cool, but man, that Tech Planet is properly massive.

And 6 capture points for a Tech Plant. Interesting.
I wonder if every base type has 6, or whether it varies from base to base.

[DviddLeff]

The size of that facility is amazing.

Also the HUD shows the jump jet capacitor charge.

[Bags]

Three grenades?bleh

[Hamma]

Well I can confirm my name would not appear on any of these screenshots. :lol:

Who knows why they blurred them out - conspiracy theories!

[bjorntju1]

:O

This game looks SOOO GOOD.

[Gandhi]

Looks freaking awesome, that tech plant is massive!

[Mechzz]

Oh, and yes, the view from the Lib is abso-feckin-lutely beautiful.
*Drools on screen*

[Sirisian]

That thing looks amazing. I want more views though. Looks like a brand new model. I wonder how much more they changed.

[Miir]

That tech plant is so freak'in amazing it made me pee a little bit.

Can't wait to see the Liberator in action!

[SuperMorto]

You're under NDA?

I wish dude I wish!

[Mastachief]

That is freaking huge.

[Spkk]

The scale of fortresses in this game is simply stunning. I cannot wait for that inevitable massive firefight that will commence deep in the bowls of one of these places.

Also, cool plane bro.

[Shogun]

nice pic! i like the color pattern on the lib!

maybe some alpha testers use inappropriate names like dickhead or so, and had to be blurred out because of this ;)

[kertvon]

SICK! Cant wait to pilot one. Nothing like seeing my favorite vehicle with the same color scheme as my favorite pop tarts (wile berry blast).

Tech plant is looking epic as well.

[Sabrak]

Do you guys remember that (kinda) old picture of a base, with a "tiny" guy running by its walls , and some people were like "no, that can't be a soldier, it'd mean the base is gigantic"?

Well that Tech Plan sure represents very well, by itself, how huge a base/building can be in PS2.

[Graywolves]

So far my wolfy senses and mob mentality witch hunt paranoia is saying...

Basti
Hamma
Supermorto

[FIREk]

So, yeah, anyone notice how different this Lib is from what we've seen so far?

this one has got 2 engines and a vertical stabilizer in the tail. I wonder what else changed in its looks, or if it's just customization...

[headcrab13]

There are so many badass things about this pic, I don't know where to start.

E3 demo based around this facility, plz! :D

[Evil Redrum]

This is how the Lib looks now, it looks like a stock libby as well.

[Raymac]

I remember seeing the first images of the tech plant not long ago and thinking that it didn't look big enough......yeah I totally take that back.

I wonder if we are going to have large rooms in the interiors of these bases or if they are going to be just stairway + hallway like in PS1.

[Synical]

The scale is absolutely amazing, I knew the different facilities were going to be big but that is crazy. Can't wait to see the massive firefights that unfold.

[SniperSteve]

Very awesome plane. And yes, fighting all the way up to that top-level in the tech plant is going to be epic. Looks like an area for some nice close quarter combat!

[basti]

This is how the Lib looks now, it looks like a stock libby as well.

Can you get us more screenys of the new Lib?

What else has been changed? :)

And yes, i do know you wont comment on anything till T or H comment on it, but you can just walk over to them and tell them to tell us. :D

[Bittermen]

Future liberator gunner here!

[Robotix]

The tailgun of that Liberator seems to have a third, larger barrel strapped to right barrel. A mortar launcher for ground targets perhaps?

[FIREk]

This is how the Lib looks now, it looks like a stock libby as well.

Could you coax TRay into showing us a front-ish shot of the Libby in her new form? :)

[Zekeen]

It looks like the liberator is more streamlined than looking like an overweight pigeon. Which is nice. But I wonder if they will also keep the old model for a new craft then or a Liberator variant. I say it's best to use all cool or semi cool looking vehicles they implement at any time in the final product. PS players LOVE our vehicular variety.

[Johari]

B-E-A-Utiful.

I've never been one for flying but I can definitely see myself gunning one of these badboys.

[Talek Krell]

I love the rotating wings. I wonder if the tail is intended to do the same? Might make it look more balanced, and I think the Gal's tail does that judging from the appearance of the base.

Regardless, it looks badass in game. Well done Redrum! :D

[Figment]

That's not a Liberator, that's a piñata!

[Evil Redrum]

And yes, i do know you wont comment on anything till T or H comment on it, but you can just walk over to them and tell them to tell us. :D

You should harass them on Twitter to try and get you another shot of it ;)


Regardless, it looks badass in game. Well done Redrum! :D

Thank You :D

[The Kush]

Damn that is beautiful.

[ArmedZealot]

I take everything I have said about the lib back. It looks like a nice ship and I want to fly one ASAP when the game is released.

[rpxtoreador]

Thats awesome, 3 seats. My libby has grown a new pair of VTOL wings.

[Zenben]

This shot makes it look like a complete redesign. The first thing I thought of when I saw it was some of the experimental tilt-wing craft NASA and USAF worked on during the Cold War.

http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4099/4857948935_03e21951b2_z.jpg

Love the look, can't wait to fly it.

[Purple]

everything looks great. i will now be flying the libby in my off time.

[SniperSteve]

Yeah, Redrum, really did a good job. :D

[Captain1nsaneo]

http://i46.tinypic.com/69q6uc.png

I want to fly it.

Now.

[FPClark]

Oh hey that screenshot is from that game on the ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ Server! Man that fight was epic that squad with ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓, ▓▓▓▓▓, and ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ was tearing it up in the lib.

No guys I swear im not under the NDA! :rolleyes:

(PS omg i wish D:)

[NCLynx]

That looks like it'll be fun to pilot

[ZeeGermans]

I fully intend to listen to Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" while dive bombing in one of these... a whole fleet of them if I can help it. Good stuff is afoot folks.

Count me in..... but mine will be in the illustrious red and black, not some ugly purple.

[Vamp Hunter]

Seriously awesome, makes me wanna fly a liberator. I love the VTOL engines/wings.

[PeteHMB]

Count me in..... but mine will be in the illustrious red and black, not some ugly purple.

If there's one thing everyone regardless of empire agrees on...it's that purple is ugly. :lol: http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/images/smilies/twofinger.gif

[kertvon]

If it is complete, a cockpit view would be exceptional as well! :)

[PeteHMB]

I think that with the new revised Reaver (appears to have a central chaingun ala the mosquito as opposed to the alternating cannons) and the liberator...I'll be perfectly happy with NC again. I was considering switching to TR for the Mosquito...buuuuut...yeah.

[Xyntech]

If there's one thing everyone regardless of empire agrees on...it's that purple is ugly. :lol: http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/images/smilies/twofinger.gif

Hey, only the TR get to make fun of the other empires colors without retaliation, you blue and gold sports gear looking motherfuckers. :D

Looks like the scale of that tech plant is perfect. It was hard to be sure in that other image, but with those smaller infantry sized doors on the other buildings, we can see exactly how big it is (barring anymore forgelight optical illusions ;))

Cool to see the Liberator getting it's own variation on the rotating engines thing. I'm definitely going to spend some time flying and gunning in them.

[Senyu]

I will climb that Tech Plant, stand on the very top, jump, and falcon punch the aircraft I land on.....In a MAX suit

[Sabrak]

Ummm...

That actually makes me wonder if light assaults can jump from up there and use their jump packs to (try to) land safely.

That'd be pretty neat!

[Xyntech]

I so want the jump packs to replace the hot dropping inertial dampener shield for all non Galaxy hot drops.

It would be so much more badass to have to time the landing when bailing high up from a fighter.

[Corax]

Can I customize it to have a battle cannon on top and call it a Thunderhawk?

DO WANT NOW!

[Timealude]

I cant decide if i want to spec in gal first or this beautiful piece of machinery.

[Sirisian]

I just noticed T-Ray replied to my tweet and said we'd get more pictures Wednesday.

Yeah, he said Wednesday on a few different replies. Has me all excited.

At least this time I won't be hoping for a beta announcement, like I usually am when they announce a specific date that they will reveal something.

[IMMentat]

i'd love to see what the front of this beast looks like, with that thin, broad winged shape I can't see it being a hovering death platform, more like an A10 warthog, fly in, say hello using a big gun, run away, no need to repeat as the big gun will probably split the cintinent in half let alone any vehicles unlucky enough to be in its line of fire.

[DDSHADE]

Just plain incredible! The dreams I had of a next-gen Planetside for years and years is coming true and unfolding before my very eyes!! The new lib is beautiful!!
