Any of you guys make it into the Technical test? If not, best of luck with the beta invites!

Thanks for the vid though

The little comments he put into the video made it extremely apparent he had NO IDEA what the hell the point of the game was :P

First few seconds are the best. "WAIT! OH NOES!"

MAX animations seem not to be finished yet. Look like scarecrows :)

I don't think this is a sanctioned video.

Sweet, albeit short, gameplay. Nice find.

I had to stop watching this because of the stupid little comments that he kept putting in! Cringe worthy.

The max animations are done i believe. It's just that some bug kicked in and made them glitch out and show no animation.

Is this... not a breach of the NDA? So confused.
Some people post information and get banned and then others post videos? Hard to know what's a breach of the NDA and what isn't.

This is from the community day, not the tech test. Which is why you hear all the chatter in the background, and the broken animations for the maxes.

This was probably taken from the Community Day a couple weeks ago

I didn't mind the little comments at the bottom. The red on red pounder vs prowler footage made me a little sad but the fire discipline on the prowler was amazing! (He didn't smack the impudent max in the face)

It's videos like this that throw some people on this forum into a frothing rage. I don't blame them; you'd swear PS2 were some player's first FPS experience.

Good news is this sounds to be a community event recording, considering it's a camera, not a program, capturing the footage.

Any extra beta footage is a Plus in my book. Also, Lol at the first 30 secs with the drop pod.

I believe it was posted by FPSGeneral, which is a game review website (I think, never been there).
So this was probably cleared as a press thing.

This video is legit, so no need to worry about a potential NDA break. Instead enjoy the footage!

Indeed! If you guys want even more there is plenty on the channel.

Here is the playlist: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL10D7F221F3B0639C&feature=view_all

A recent interview with Matt and Tramell, 45 mins of gameplay with Matt talking about it, and stuff all the way back to PAX and GDC earlier in the year.

Look forward to more from us, including beta live streams.

On the other hand, he seemed to have fun with it, so I'd call it a success. :D

Yeah, this seems like a real bad bug thus far. I've seen more MAX units glitched out than normal in gameplay. Hope they can get it under control!

Also, I agree, this doesn't look official, wonder if its NDA or just media allowance. :huh:

It's legit.

Makes sense since it was posted by something that looked legit which was part of why I was so confused. I just assumed all the community day stuff had been posted :) Thanks :)

Sniper rifle hipfire is looking a bit OP at the moment, at least with a semi-auto.

I love the flame-spewing scarecrow ***** Vanu MAX. They should leave that as-is.

Omg the vanu MAX at around 2:46 was doing the cool face position and shooting flames from his feet.
I kinda hope it stays like this in the final build because it looked sooooooooooo hilarious :rofl:

I can't remember which article had this in it but one of the developers said the bug that caused the MAX to not have animations was only in the build that was being shown there and it was already fixed in the next build.
