That 3rd image. What is that a Antenna on that Sunderer? With that said, it was a pretty decent interview. The screenshots though are "omg beautiful". I cannot wait to get in there.

Are you talking about the turret? Looks like a machinegun. The sunderer that's up ahead a little looks like it has MK-19s on it.

Yeah, its the turret. when I was looking at it earlier The rails on the top of the sunderer looked like they went with it. So I was under the assumption it was some form of a antenna. It is not though. I should of just looked at the one off in the distance.

Holy fuckin hell! Those look absolutely amazing!

Didnt even get far enough to read the interview yet lol.

Wow... all those NC vehicles moving in at once is the best screenshot so far!

I really hope the final game will support moving 200+ people in vehicle convoys like that.

None of them are moving, it's obvious they've just been spawned and are static, you can tell from the gun turret positions.

Also the trees are copied and pasted all right next to each other, I mean at least have some different variations next to each other.

I think most of the turrets are pointing at where I'd expect them to point, and they arnt pointing straight forward that you'd at least expect freshly spawned vanguard to point at.

What I think is the biggest giveaway of a static set up is the lack of tracks in the ground.

As for the trees, sure doesnt bother me even if the root-area looks the same in all of them. Just make sure they are sorta turned to different directions, like they mostly are in the screenies.

Models are looking awesome.

Leaves look a bit odd though.
