Yeah, I wonder how many people would log in if SOE announced that on weekend X, everyone that plays Planetside during that time would be guaranteed beta access which started the following day.

Announce it in advance, let the word spread, and just see how many vets comeback for that 1 weekend. Talk about pop locks...

[Hotohori]

You wanna see more then 600 people play planetside, telly sony to make it free to play already. ;p

[Grimster]

Yeah I agree the timeline would be perfect to announce PS:N on E3 and release a nice trailer or something than dish out more information on Fan Faire. But is it like people say about it that its mostly about Everquest?

[Lonehunter]

I'm betting at E3 they say nothing, but at the same time post an "exclusive" here since we're so special, we wouldn't want too many people catching wind of this.

So cross your fingers I think if they were going to show off Planetside Next it will be here.

[Tigersmith]

You know Hamma you should just go to E3 you could get a pass easily

[Hamma]

Yea but Airfare isn't free.

[Crator]

Wonder if Sony will even show with the uber-hack debacle going on. For fear of a lynch mob!

I hope PS:N doesnt do "free to play". Its in quotes cause its obviously not gonna be free, they just make you pay in a different way. Ever play world of tanks? You pay to upgrade your tanks, those who pay more get the best stuff, its pay to win. You pay for every little thing in "free to play games". The actual statistics show that the average person pays more for ftp games than for ones with subscriptions. People see planned payments and dont like that but they gladly pay even more money when its randomly thrown out there for every little upgrade and patch and even needed to compete.

Throw a lobster in boiling water and he'll jump out, put him in cold water and slowly heat it up and he will cook to death. Thats the "free to play" model, they will cook you to death.

Now if you just mean flat out free, that scares me due to hackage. Plus it requires their servers so couldnt happen. =(

Back on topic, yeah im expecting atleast some tidbits at very least at E3. Wouldnt make sense if the game is comin out even remotely soon to not show atleast somethin at the biggest game show of the year.

[Tigersmith]

I would go if i had a ticket but eh. hard to get.

I think we would run into "login lock" with that.

A troll? Yes. I have been trolling this site and any other sites, that have been discussing the possible future release of Planetside Next.

E3 Starts June 7 In L.A. I live close and hope to attend.
http://www.e3expo.com/

I've seen the layout to, showing floor spot allotted to Sony. The big question is, will this be to unveil the game we've all been hoping and praying for, for these last many years? I'm not sure. If Sony has truely been working on PSN, and plans to release it in the near future, then they most definitely will be showcasing it at E3. If, as a friend of mine, who works for Blizzard, believes that Sony was just stringing
people along to garner some extra subs over the last many months, then, they will not be showcasing Planetside at E3. I am optimistic, and believe that Sony hasnt been lying to us. AND, come June 7, they will advertise the future release of PLANSIDE NEXT.


PS. It nice to be able to pop in and say hi to fellow old school PS players. If you were on Markov for the first two years of Planetside, then you had the opportunity to be killed by me, many times over. =)

True statement right there.

It's like what >$100 one way? Just hit up a bunch of turn overs and pack lite, then hitch-hike back to your home
