AGN Community Night July with Matt Higby

[The Inevitable]

Could you ask about the current status of TrackIR support? And if it supports other head trackers, too?

Head tracking + Head Mounted Display (like the upcoming $400 Oculus Rift) would make it feel like you're actually on Auraxis (and how awesome would that be!!). =)

Thanks!

If yes, how many such favourites do you estimate we'll have at our disposal?

That's a really good one. Having a good set of favorites in PS1 was extremely important. I'd love to have say 20 slots for different loadouts on the go.

Gamespot interview from a little while ago to get you ready to the community night

[Comet]

With the command tree, how are they going to balance the objectives so that the entire team doesn't zerg over to a listed objective? Will there still be enough incentive for other players to not do the objective for the sake of holding territory?

I am worried players will just zerg around to the command objectives to get the bonus exp and not really worry about holding other territories

EDIT: To add to my question. Can a commander also issue a command to stay and defend existing territory to help curb a team from zerging? If so, how many active objectives can a single commander have active at any one time? PPPS - What is to stop a commander from issuing a "defend facility" command on a territory not currently being contested so that his team can farm for extra experience?

[Hamma]

Thats cool, just means I dont need to keep trying all night and can just re-watch it with my weetbix in the morning.
Shame you guys had stream issues, there was a nice viewer turn out and most stayed tuned in after the Higby Q&A to watch the community show.
