DAT STUNT.

[NewSith]

That was an awesome stunt. I wonder if it was Montez or not....

[captainkapautz]

I was like, LOL WUT?!

[Ieyasu]

I was like, LOL WUT?!

yeah will have to watch it again when replay comes up. I looked away for a second, looked back and was like wtf just happend there.

[Knightwyvern]

That was pretty intense, lol.

[maskedskull]

That was...quite impressive

[Aurmanite]

Lots of good pilots on tonight. Flying looks pretty damned good.

[Gogita]

This Montez guy is already notorious before the beta is even out O_O

[DOUBLEXBAUGH]

The scyth pilot that bailed, turned around, got back in, and regained control .005 seconds from hitting a rock? Yea, that was pretty awesome.

[NCLynx]

That was likely the first "stunt" with a Planetside 2 air vehicle and we all got to witness it. Awesome :D

Still not 100% happy with being able to hop in & out of vehicles instantly but that made for a pretty awesome clip.

[Ieyasu]

had me reaching for the slider bar to back the video up before remembering it was live stream and I would have to wait. Couldnt help but wonder if you had a friend flying alongside you if you couldnt both bail and hop into each others vehicles. Would also be cool to bail from a air vehicle about to go down and hop into a gal or liberator that was flying by with a open spot. Too much fun just thinking about it alone. cant wait to get my hands on the game.

[SpcFarlen]

He is an employee who apparently beats at Scythe.

[IceyCold]

I saw it and the only thing that came to mind was: "Well Played."

[Top Sgt]

yeah it was a nice stunt

Today's stream was definately Air flight concentrated..Many devs and QA testers flying constantly.

Atleast the Gal Drops were kool to watch

I also wasn't sure if medics could revive max's but i saw it happen on stream so now I know for sure.

[Tapman]

At first I was like :huh:

...and then I was like :eek:

...Wow.

However I must say as a hardcore NC I cannot wait to scatter the remains of scythes across the battlefield!

[Geist]

He won the stream I think.

[raidyr]

Dunno if anyone noticed either but right before that he was gunning down a Galaxy that flipped on it's back and took out a Mosquito in it's death throes. Very cinematic finisher.

Overall today's footage was great, better than yesterdays which already had me wanting to play it.

Unrealistic, we shouldn't be able to press e to enter a vehicle, that stunt proves is OverPowered.....This isn't battlefield- Planetside Elitist veterans

[Bags]

My entire steam group exploded when that happened, lol.

I for one think that instant entrance isn't that bad judging from the unscripted combat gameplay we've seen so far...

[stonelizard]

Montez the Monster

I hope he's playing tomorrow

[lMABl]

Was watching that Montez throughout the entire stream. He was constantly showing up on the killcam. lol

[NewSith]

Damn, too bad I missed this. Was he able to fire shots while out of cockpit?

No it was an innovative stunt riding, rather than a mainstream RPG kill.

[NewSith]

Wait, what? Bailing out of FPS cockpits and then getting back in while in mid-air is now "mainstream RPG"?

"mainstream Ruchnoy Protivotankoviy Granatomet kill", referring to the infamous BF3 stunt.

[NewSith]

So what did he do exactly?

BF1942 more like it.

If you wanna dis something, at least learn where it originated.

So what did he do exactly?

Got out of scythe in midair, get back in in midair, managed to pull it up mere milliseconds before it crashed.

[DerFurst]

He was flying the scythe dangerously close to the ground, then hopped out. After gliding in air alongside the vehicle for a little bit, he jumped back in, and lifted it up before it crashed into the ground.

[FastAndFree]

Jumped out of the cockpit, got a few moments of airtime and then jumped back in and flew away juuuust before his drifting Scythe crashed into a hill

meh, too slow

[DOUBLEXBAUGH]

Damn, too bad I missed this. Was he able to fire shots while out of cockpit?

I think he bailed on accident, because he turned around and got right back in. If he was higher off the ground he could have shot stuff if he wanted to, but like I said he got right back in and barley regained control to avoid a rock wall he was headed for.

[NewSith]

BF1942 more like it.

I'm not quite sure we're talking about the same video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOaGhE_sejI).

[DOUBLEXBAUGH]

nope, just popped out next to it.

[captainkapautz]

I'm not quite sure we're talking about the same video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOaGhE_sejI).

I'm not quite sure you realize that the "RendeZook" originated in BF1942 and has been around BF since then.

But it was bf3 vid that got nearly 10mil views and still counting, so...

[2coolforu]

I creamed my pants at that stunt, nice flying.

[captainkapautz]

Yeah, probably cause YouTube didn't exist when it first happened.

And also doesnt't change the fact that dissing it just cause it's from BF3 is narrowminded.

[Bitmap]

Awesome stunt.

That said, this kind of thing should NOT be allowed IMHO and just makes me miss enter/exit vehicle animations even more. They are going for realism (to a certain extent) and immersion from what I've seen and this completely destroys the immersion for me.

DO NOT WANT

[NewSith]

Yeah, probably cause YouTube didn't exist when it first happened.

LOL, I was ironic, not sarcastic. Like "Hopping out and killing is now mainstream, so we did it extraordinarily, without killing". Where's dis in that?

[Johari]

Montez the Monster has a nice ring to it. The IRC chat was stunned then amazed by what they saw along with TB and clegg.

[Graywolves]

I suspect it will feel nice when I kill him. :evil:

Sorry, misunderstood you then.

My first thought on the matter was, 'this is why teleporting in and out of vehicles shouldn't be in game'.

[RedKnights]

My first thought on the matter was, 'this is why teleporting in and out of vehicles shouldn't be in game'.

Funny, we think alike! :rolleyes:

[FPClark]

It was in PS1...Just wasnt instant (Flail)

[Biohazard]

If they implemented a 1-3 second timer when entering / start up, would that be better? I think start up would be cool; hear the engine spool up, the hud flicker on, the dust start to kick up just prior to takeoff. Yeah, start up would be cool :cool:

[tdopz]

Animations have nothing to do with it. You could probably do the same thing in the original - the only difference would be that it would show you doing the "jump off the ground into the seat" animation in mid-air.

The reason it didn't happen in the original probably had a lot more to do with the time it took for the server to tell you that you are close enough to "enter" a vehicle. By the time it was cool to do, your client said "nope, too far away" - and you probably were. I remember flying by re-arm stations in an aircraft and getting the menu and pressing the right hot-key for the loadout, seeing the load-out light up as if it had been selected, then nothing would happen.

[Virulence]

I'm going to be disappointed if there isn't a clip of that Scythe set to Guile's theme by the end of the weekend. :D

And fail horrible countless times.
