If you have no fear of dieing, just the pain of being shot, would war really be hell then?

But do agree, should have shown the respawn.

Wasnt that misrepresentative. TR left a small sacrificial defence force at that base, suckered the NC and VS in to start fighting for it. Out of shot, TR are hacking everywhere else on the map obviously, like they do on PS1 VS were obviously foothold-locked to get a force that big to deploy from one location ;D ;D ;D

You other factions need the promotion tbh. TR get the best players. Its just somethin bout the TR, I dunno the colours or the guns or the character models, better players are drawn to us! Its true. We won PS1 afterall

You barneys and smurfs better replay the trailer a few more times and enjoy while you can, the FMV is about the only glory you guys can expect in PS2, HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Totally. Awesome. Trailer. BTW. Agreed it should have had the respawn in that would have been the utter genius...

Did they just change the title of the video? Its "PlanetSide 2 Trailer -- Epic First person shooter! Get Your Beta On!" now. :P

I kind of figured that's what the title ment. Death isn't an excuse when you can just respawn and repeat.

Enlighten me, when did this happen? Wasn't aware the war ended.

And which empire was the first to secure a world lock? Thx.

I totally agree. This trailer needs to be everywhere bringing in more players to fold.

I was going to comment on this as well. It was nice to not see that that terrible phrase.

I watched that over and over and while it looks like someone landing and then kind of crouching it seems more like concrete that is lit up just falling down.

The infiltrators stab him on the other side of that area too. Would have been a very cool idea tho.

Just had a couple friends who have never heard of PS2 (until this trailer was released) post on FB that they are going NC.

Bastards.

Actually, I didn't think that's what he was saying at all. Hell the 2nd line in the trailer is "There is no death to free you from this war."

[Harasus]

Is it not established in the lore that the technology lets people respawn?

[SnipeGrzywa]

BTW, take a look at the tags for that video. Shits hilarious.

Yeah. And then a closeup of the NC guy's eyes and hear him rasp something like "THEN GO OUT AND DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN."

And sexy Vanu babe should have had a melodious voice over. "Their senses are clouded. They cannot see the truth any more than they can see us..."

They missed so many opportunities with that video, God dammit. I wonder how clearly the guys at SOE explained to them the nature of the game they were advertising for.
