When it comes to SOE, I'm in the 'slightly-pessimistic' group as well, just because of my experiance with the first game. There were some promises in the past, that were never fullfilled. I'm not saying that they lied, but in the end the promises were broken, and that's what I remember after all those years.
And about Smedly himself. Yes it's nice that he's taking his time to talk to the community and he really seems to be behind this project. I'm also aware that SOE runs a business and no charity, but when he says he always loved Planetside etc. then I wonder, why SOE pretty much stopped all support for the game after 2005, when it still had some potential. And no ... 1 patch every half year is no 'support', considering how much subscription you had to pay.
Example of a broken promise (the way it felt to me):
I don't wish to attack SOE, but they haven't done that much in the past to gain my trust. Anyway .. that's the past and I'd really like to look forward and not backward. I'll try to stop with these kind of posts.
