Balanced for 2 teams? Tell me this isn't going to esports only content... Looks neat though.

Well they will likely use this for eSports, they mad it sound like it will be available to everyone also. Check out the Twitch stream shortly as well I'm sure Matt will talk more about it.

Looks amazing, but if it is open to the public it will have a small pop based on how big it is, maybe enough room for 2 large guilds to fight in. I wouldn't mind seeing a universal safe zone where you could challenge other players directly.

Re: Nexus Battle Island Revealed


How is the Nexus linked to the regular game?

Re: Nexus Battle Island Revealed


I thought you had some insider access here, wtf! I thought you were on this stream deal here somewhere, pull some strings!@


edit: I did learn one thing, Xander guy did the level redesigns on Indar, he spent a month on it! He also did the Nexus island. So I assume he's doing Hossin, which means MLG is pushing back the solid content for the every day players /sadface

This reminds me of the Avalanche map from halo 3.

Looks like you got your question answered! They aren't sure how it will link into the live game yet.

Re: Nexus Battle Island Revealed


@ 1:23 what is the back Prowlers main weapon?

It doesn't look like what we got not and the 2 barrels look fused to form a pill shape instead of the 2 separate barrels I remember. I can't find the pics but it looks like one of the tank weapon that was hidden in the game code but not out yet.

Re: Nexus Battle Island Revealed


k, no longer thrilled with the Nexus. It sounds like they're making a CoD/BF style map with 48v48 or whatever, everyone starts on equal footing not with their normal character. So basically it's completely disconnected from the regular game. /sadface

Re: Nexus Battle Island Revealed


Meh.

So... the endgame of PS2 is CoD/BF-style 48 vs. 48 matches? Remember when every MMO decided they needed to become a WoW-clone and copy its endgame of instanced pve, rep grinding, and so forth... I feel like PS2 has become the FPS version of those games.

PS2 had the goodwill... every bit of encouragement from the fans... to try and do things differently... to basically try NEW and unique things... Instead - the farther along we've gone - the more SOE has tried to turn this game into just like every other FPS -- and in that arena, PS2 isn't as good as the better FPS.
