Planetside 2 Footage uncovered.

Pella · 2012-07-17, 05:39 AM

After the last thread got deleted i wont post the actual video.

Look at the other clan match videos the voices on comms are exactly the same as the planetside 2 footage.
*Edit* The Audio on the video sounds that some people are playing BF3 in the background.

So it looks like SOE have invited certain members of this multi gaming clan to the tech test. Which i'm absolutely cool with. But looking at the forum and players names i cant see one planetisde 1 vet i recognized.

Not a flame at SOE but its interesting. Its a shame people cant stick to a NDA.

Damn, why can't people obey an NDA? It's not that hard.

invite L33Ters and what do you expect, they're to cool for NDA don't ya know

The only player I saw in the video who I recognized was "NVSniper". As far as I know he's also apart of a multi gaming clan too called "Nova Gamers".

Hard to reply without looking Trollish - But how would you go about choosing a Vet to concentrate on how their rig handles the game compared to either pointing out everything that isn't Planetside 1 or how the game plays in general.

It would seem easier or even more sensible not to have a vet in a tech test IMO

I really dont understand reactions like that... are your working for SOE or what? Or maybe trying to get into beta :>

@topic: Yeah.... I dont get it either.

They also probably go out of their way to use alternate names for certain circumstances. Improbable, but possible.

Anyway the Tech Test is meant for testing hardware, they could have gone out of their way to grab Vets, but they could also have gone out of their way to make sure that people run as a unit to truely test some system aspects they want to be sure are implemented and we in all honestly don't know which is which.

Soon(tm) should be replaced with "Beta will happen when it happens"

Silly though. They even had a TS3 overlay so you could see all the players in channel who where playing.

Is it coincidence that these guy's where chosen for the tech test via system specs lottery which the community has been sold on the last few weeks. Highly unlikely.

Without wanting to discuss the issue of selection too much; most of those involved in the first day of the tech test WEREN'T Planetside veterans. Whether this was a deliberate choice by SOE or merely luck of the draw, I couldn't say.

There were ppl playing Battlefield in that channel. It would be a shame to ban them all.....

None of the people talking was playing planetside, all of them were playing bf3. If you guys would actually listen and not instantly become super jealous because some other people are in the game and you are not this would be pretty clear to you guys

Fair enough. I have absolutely no problem with these guys playing beta. SOE can decide what todo. But i hope they dont get kicked.

Welcome to PSU, always good to have new members join up.

NDA is there because the company is still making the game and it could be in a lot of flux. Logical sane people understand this, however even the best of us get emotional about things that we find dear or important and the NDA is there to keep the company from getting flooded with constant complaints about this or that small piece that each person complaining feels like a huge issue. NDA is better that keeping telling people "Step off my dick and let me work, shit's not done yet. Fuck."
