Oh I forgot what type of CE, will spitfires be in?

[Irish]

more of a selfish question but might impact a small group.

i played for around 3 years back in 06-09, kept a sub lasting for the duration, when i stopped playing they did the character wipe of "inactive players" so my char but most importantly my name got deleted.

i have heard of some preference given to older veteran players but feel somehow i am in a loophole.

i just want my name =D

**also the payment card, and email associated to the account would not be the same for ps2, as they are both dated.......how ever you could answer that dilemma would be super..thx

[Thomas]

1. Is there any sort of basement fighting like in PS1, maybe sections of tunnels that connect various places in the base that could be great for fighting in?

2. Can we get an explanation of the Lore of Auraxis? As in, is it all one planet again or has the 'Bending' been retconned.

[Logri]

Again, might already have been asked, but there are so many questions and answers around it's starting to get difficult to find original things to ask lol.

#1 Will there be visual recognition on the minimap/map/UI that indicates the location of dedicated medics or do they get a means to easily and quickly locate fallen troopers to revive?

Still remember convo's in /tell of people trying to direct me towards them for a revive, that was very difficult at times.

[proxykalevra]

maybe ask them a nice general question like what percent do they think of the game is to beta or launch (which ever they want to compare progress to)

how about asking if... since we aren't going to get an eta on beta could we possibly get planetside 1 made f2p to keep the core community that is returning busy until there is a ps2 beta?

ooo i almost forgot ask if people driving takes and flying vehicles who only want basic repair functionality will be forced to use the engi class

and a follow up if yes, will pilots who bail from air cav aircraft as an engi simply plumet to their death... or will they get a 1 time use jumpack/ejection system...

sanctuaries were excellent for grouping up before picking a battle and moving out on an outfit's raid night... are the sanctuaries completely gone as it appeared from early interviews? or are you able to simply bypass them?

ask if they could expand on the resource system... if a fight is going bad for the nc does that mean they will be penalized by not being able to pull vehicles? wouldn't this basically eliminate them from the field forcing them to hide in their base until they are kicked off a continent?

what is the most important positive and negative thing soe has learned from running planetside 1?

plz get a look at some character customization (if it is available) it looks like they are planing on having a great many visual options!

ask if there will be any vehicle hacking/faction specific weapon stealing like there was in planetside 1...

if so, might it be confusing if a tr hacks a mag and equips it with desert cammo to hide most of its new red/black colors? will iff system be up to reducing the confusion?


.... and as a pilot plz ask every aircraft related question you can find/think of.


are you guys sending a list of questions ahead on say sunday so that soe can green light which questions they like and are ready to answer?

Not really no - but I am reviewing it on my own and having a few others check it out. I have a pretty good idea myself by now what I will get answers to and not. But so far most of it has been fair game

[Hamma]

Question list is officially locked - thanks guys!

[Baneblade]

Can you post it, then edit in the answers when you get them?

[Graywolves]

Will the glun gun return?

I am doing the interview as a video feature and cannot release it till next week sadly.

[Baneblade]

Alright, maybe I'll transcribe it when we get it.

[Aaron]

Have a nice trip, Hamma and Jennyboo!

[Xyntech]

So sometime this week we get more footage from TB and sometime next week we get the Hamma interview? Sweetness. Even though we have still be getting a lot of new info, it's felt kind of odd ever since they stopped doing the bi-weekly updates.

This feels like we are getting something like that again. Something concrete to look forward to.

I'm still wondering who got the MAX exclusive. Will TB still not be able to post any (non first person) MAX footage?
