[FIREk]

Even more hopefully, multiple devs will be replying from multiple computers, eh?

Lol. I just got the mental image of Higby pacing up and down a line of other devs, each at their own stations, all command center-style, barking out replies to the questions they call out so they can transcribe and submit them.

Seriously though, Im having a hard time seeing how this is going to work without deployable AMSs...

[FIREk]

Aye. I wonder if I can stay up until 2 AM this night as well.

Deus Ex: Icarus Effect is a good read, luckily...

[Bags]

PST, 3 hours behind EST.

[FIREk]

You crazy Americans, with your different time zones in the same country...

[Bags]

So can anyone ask questions, or is this like Hamma only?

[Hamma]

Anyone can - just going to ask the questions from the list on psucom.

[Bags]

Okay. Do we send them to @planetside2 and the devs will respond using their own accts?

[FIREk]

The @PlanetSide2 Twitter Chat is starting in just a few minutes! @SOE_Hack, @PS_TRay, and @mhigby will be answering your questions!

Told ya! Looks like multiple devs will be replying individually.

[Bags]

Tray started answering.

[FIREk]

Hamma, I suggest that you start chucking questions from basti's list at the devs, since we're pretty confused right now and I think basti arbitrarily shoved this responsibility onto you, in his questions thread.

[Bags]

Uh, anyone know what this means? I asked:

@planetside2 How will Hvy-Aslt function? Slow moving and heavy suppression, or will it be more like PS1 where it was for fast close-quarter?

got

@BagOfChips @planetside2 we're really looking at the balance on all classes against each other

Anyone know what that means? "We dunno at the moment"?

It looks like "depending on how it competes with all the other classes, it might end up fast, slow, mid-range, short-range... we'll see once we;re satisfied with the balance".

Hamma: I don't think we should wait for them to reply and just throw questions at them - they may not have an immediate answer to the DX10/11 question, for instance.
EDIT: Nevermind!
