I was thinking that it would be fascinating if some of the devs, or even a couple of the internal beta guys could just drop in and post a little something to drool over every day or so. I know that these sites (official and universe) are both really good about keeping us informed, but I was wondering if they could maybe let us know what they were working on. Like; today we worked on latancy and accuracy on high pressure connections. It would be really interesting, to know what they were optimising, and just to know where the game was and where it was going. I know there is a NDA from hell, but maybe someone could just come through and tell what they played that day, how the guns worked, what vehicles they were in, what bases they attacked and just pretty much what *they* liked. I know Hamma has done this, but as more people start to play with internal beta and (soon) open beta, it would be nice to keep us strung out on that little drug I like to call planetside.

*kicks himself in ass for not signing up for beta...owww*

Just my 2cent

haha.

just remember this isnt the only place to find planetside info. Some of the devs drop by and speak to us quite regularly. You just gotta know where to look :D

There'll be a stress test obviously.

There used to be dev interviews, mostly nothing to do with PS :p in which they said what they were working on at that moment.

But right now they're very busy with getting the game finished, so I say NO SLEEP NO EAT and definitely NO TALKING TO US. :D

Smoke should have a daily broadcast with new updates over a server like WSBN or something.

I know they post everynow and then, which is really cool. I'm just pumped for this game and want to know all I can. I thought it would be cool to get opinions from lotsa different people, that way you can form a better opinion ya know.

Yeah Dave has been banned from anything Tribes by the community :lol:

Yeah it was just an idea to make things a little more interesting. If they were already far into the beta there wouldn't be any interesting announcements so the time to do it is when everyone doesn't know very much.
