Post Playtest February 20 2006


VoidRageQA just posted news of a playtest coming up Next Monday:
Playtest -- February 20th, 2006 (Build 3.11) -- 3:00p Los Angeles / 6:00p New York / 11:00p UK
Continent: Oshur, the Desolation Battle Island!
Objectives
  • NC Objective: Crush the VS and TR and force them off of Desolation
  • NC will start with Izha
  • VS Objective: Crush the NC and TR and force them off of Desolation
  • VS will start Dahaka
  • TR will start at Jamshid
  • TR Objective: Crush the NC and VS and force them off of Desolation
  • This will be an limited engagement scenario and the following rules apply: Stay on Desolation!

Changes to look for in 3.11:
New Features:
  • Major Revision of the User Interface including a new logo and revision of the fonts, status bar, radar, soldier management toolbar, and first time help dialogue
  • Many changes to the default keymap and UI placement to make things more intuitive to new players
  • New timed helper that assists new players by popping up context specific help as they move around the game world
  • Added a Customize Appearance button to the Character Info window. This button pops open a new Appearance window that has clickable toggles to select the various appearance options you can earn as you advance in BR (Helmet, Hats, Sunglasses, Command Earpiece, etc.)
  • We've listened to your feedback and worked with out Art Team to make hats we think everyone will love! The Beret and Cap are out as they don't fit the Sci-Fi theme of the game. All 3 empires how have the Sci-Fi VS hat colored correctly for their empire! This sleek hat can be toggled on/off with the new /hat command and is only accessable to those of BR24 or higher!
  • Knife Holster has been added to both the status bar and the inventory window
  • Confirmation dialogues have been added for the /outfitkick and /outfitleave chat commands
  • Turned off the Bending and BFR infro movies when you first launch PlanetSide (more to come with these)
Issue Corrections and Improvements:
  • Fixed an issue that allowed TR MAX Units to unload full clips in a single shot
  • Fixed some inaccurate text in the Certification training mission that refered to the old time (24 hours) to unlearn a certification (now 6 hours)
  • Fixed an issue where destroyed router pads would still emit sound
  • Fixed an issue where the Mosquito radar icon would disappear after traveling though a warpgate
  • Removed the tooltips from the create character screen face grid and the select outfit decal grid
  • Revised the Map Training Mission to remove inaccuracies and improve the flow
  • Made a series of code adjustments and clean up that will help performance in high traffic conditions
Looks like some pretty hefty changes to get ready for the upcoming Reserves program. Please hit up our comments thread for questions and of course.. Comments! Also for instructions on how to access the test server click here.
