Gamescom is coming up this week in Cologne Germany! It's now been confirmed that SOE has a booth at Gamescom and there will be developers in attendance. There is also a Sony Computer Entertainment event coming up at 17:30 local time tomorrow the 16th. Which translates to the following times:
- 17:30 Gamescom
- 11:30 EDT
- 10:30 CDT
- 09:30 MDT
- 08:30 PDT
We don't know that we will see anything during that event but chances are good we will see additional media coverage and interviews with SOE throughout the conference. As always we will be monitoring for any PlanetSide 2 news that breaks over the next several days!

Re: Gamescom This Week So what do we actually know that's new about PS2 from gamescom? Just a few new screens, and that it isn't going to PS3? How long are we going to have to wait to get something we dont know about or even some game play footage... |

Re: Gamescom This Week so soe did not take the opportunity to hype the masses about ps2... why not? i can only see 2 posible reasons and i don´t like any of them :-( first possibility: the game is years away from release and it´s just too early to hype anyone besides us. second possibility: soe didn´t learn anything and still doesn´t care about advertising. especially the second theory would suck big time! this game can only unfold its full potential if every gamer on the planet knows about it, and today almost nobody has even heard of ps1 and what it was capable of. soe, please have a look at your competitors! even in germany there were world of warcraft commercials on tv in every commercial-block for several months. so i guess that was a world wide advertising campaign. now count the wow customers... and this is a shitty game! a game with hundrets of clones out there you can even play for free. never underestimate the power of the forc.. oehm of the advertising! |

Re: Gamescom This Week They are doing everything right. They dont know how long till beta yet, and they dont know how long beta will be. Causing a hype now could end bad. You need to release a game on the peak of a hype, otherwise you cause an antihype. |

Re: Gamescom This Week that´s all right, as long as they really start a very big hype at the right time to let everybody know about this game. they never did this for planetside before, so i am concerned. everyone i tell about the features of planetside is totally excited about the game, but is very disappointed when i show off the actual game, because it is 8 years old and looks so bad compared to actual games. almost none of my friends has ever heard of this game before! and i only found the game at release, beause i saw a little banner on the starwars galaxies homepage. never saw any other advertisement and even had to order the game because no gameshop had it in the shelfs. and i still consider ps1 the best (and even the only real) mmofps out there! |

Re: Gamescom This Week From some information Matt gave me at GamesCom I am sure more stuff will be coming soon. Just give them some time to get through the Con season and I am sure things will be starting to pick up again! Anyhow, really too bad, Basti, but indeed, maybe next year |
