I shouldn't watch this video - it only makes me want to play it! But I did anyway and Enjoyed it was nice to see some detail was I the only one who thought the dangling things from the trees looked awesome

(while watching it voice in my head saying WANT WANT WANT WANT!!!)

Soon my pet soon!

The Sundy mobbing across the plains at ~2:08 is so freakin awesome!

[LZachariah]

Love it, RadarX!

[sylphaen]

Great video ! I love the improvement on the Sunderer's speed.

[ArcIyte]

gonna enjoy running circles around that slow ass vanguard with my prowler

[CrossFire]

This was a great video. We need 10x more of these to hold us over til Beta 1.

Was it me or were the tanks a little "jumpy"?

And the animations aren't 100% there. Nor are the particles and sounds.

Just noticing stuff. I'm fully aware it's still just alpha.

Yeah, and the other Reavers were a bit jumpy too, but I'm pretty sure that's exactly the kind of stuff they are ironing out.

The landscape and bases leave me speechless. Getting to fight in these settings, both out in the open fields and in the huge facilities is going to be incredible. I just...just...yeah this will be sweet.

[Vancha]

I hope they remember where the base names come from...



Also guessing the terrain on the minimap ain't done yet.

[Coreldan]

Yeah, when they fix the vehicle lagginess while moving, the game already looks to be in a great shape at least from what they have shown us this far.

Something that keeps sorta catching my eye. I'm not sure if it's just not done yet, but there's basically no transition between the weapon while sprinting and when "jogging". The gun just "teleports" into the new position and then just teleports back. Sure, it's a fast movement RL too, but it looks a bit weird. That said, easily one of these things that are still WIP.

I'm half convinced they plan to keep the accelerated day/night cycle on during actual gameplay, just to constantly show off the light scattering...

Would look awesome for a few minutes, then annoying and disorienting afterwards(not to mention hard on shittier computers).

Also, I really hope they reuse the PS1 base names. I thought they were perfect, and I already have them memorized.

[MrBloodworth]

Did they really just show small arms shot at a tank? Please tell me that's not viable.
