Higby Sniper Tweet

That looks very much like the gauss rifle with an extended barrel. Seems to me like the rifle in the center of the "What's that gun" pic for the tr week is their sniper.

Wait a sec
A SNIPER RIFLE WITH A DRUM MAG? DOES THAT MEAN IT'S A FULL AUTO SNIPER?

Yes sniper rifles are empire specific, so its probably one. (its stange to make them es, and then make VS one exception from es weapons theme - it will have bullets instead of energy)

Uh guys? Is that a new base type back there? Don't remember seeing a giant U in any of the other ones. Looks like there are coverings on its tips but I don't think they're air pads. Might be a watch tower or one of the smaller buildings that's being put into the game.

Is this the same armor as shown in this sneak peek? http://www.planetside-universe.com/m...hp?img_id=1699

[Levente]

again....

[Tikuto]

Someone say Halo.

crap.

[Bags]

Looks like a gauss rifle with a different scope.

[Mastachief]

We are having and orgies worth of screenshots this week, love it.

[Hamma]

Awesome that we are seeing some areas other than Indar

[Hmr85]

If that is the NC Infiltrator armor. I am really digging the look of it.

[SKYeXile]

yea it does look rather gaussy...but then the pic of the TR cloaker resembles this gun, just with a much longer barrel. uts certainly not the sniper rifle we have seen @ 30 seconds in the planetside trailer.

[polywomple]

A cloaky with a rifle? interesting, to say the least


Edit: also, NC gets the coolest looking infil, again =p

[Coreldan]

Isnt it the same scope we saw in one of the screenies (cant quickly find in gallery) that showed the sniper from the first person view? I recall the screenie was taken in this some sort of "test area", as in no terrain, just "squares" as floor.
