Thanks for the heads up Higby! I've been paying attention for a while now for the most part so the only thing that really stood out was EXTERNAL TESTING BEGINNING THIS WEEK SQUEEEEE.

I feel bad for using the PC Gamer key on my account though, I would have given it to a friend that never played before if I had known at the time.

Personally, I doubt a godly computer guarantees an early invite. They're probably pulling systems all across the spectrum.

Otherwise: I'm quite pumped, I want to put some holes in some TR and VS.

Awesome news. Though I dunno why they had to do it during Steam sale. Past few boring weeks would have been great. Now I just splurged an bought some new games an you want to drag me away from them to test Planetside 2. At least I hope you will drag me away from them.

The point he made about being a nine year veteran (paying vet) vs. a guy that spammed twitter with crap is spot on as far as I am concerned. You may or may not feel the same, but outside of beta starting, I see nothing here that says veterans will truly get first dibs. Yay for it starting, boo for the way they select people.
Ever think that maybe the opinions of vets aren't the only ones that matter? Look, they have to listen to everyone, and I think having fresh faces with modern outlooks will produce results that benefit everyone.

Besides, for every guy that got a twitter key, there's several hundred more who took one minute to sign up on the site who WONT get in before all of us. You should be happy that your game is now a legitimate proof-of-concept for something potentially great, and honestly be happy that anyone gives a damn at all. The devs loved seeing all the fan art, and rewarded it with consideration to get in early. When someone hasn't ever played your product and is already grabbed by the lore and what you've shown, enough to make a twitter account and beg for entrance for days or create fan art and join the communities this game has, that's a powerful thing. Let's all celebrate the joining of a new generation of planetside fans - if we weren't here waiting to be tapped, then none of you would have a sequel to something you love, and if you weren't the pioneers we wouldn't have a proof-of-concept for something spectacular when technology caught up.

Thanks to higby, for being a smart business person and having a vision of something that doesn't settle for anything outdated, and yet doesn't make compromises to destroy the soul of the game. See you guys on auraxis!

All of this will help us make a better final game.

And ' I ' can't wait to help the NC out even if i play Vanu and help them to take as many T.R.'s out as possible, no matter how often i get shot by N.C. Player's.

You could see it this Way that i am only there on a Map so the N.C. can have at least one Soldier over the Faction-Limit and one Vanu lesser fighting against them. :-P
So i can combine my favourite Technology- and Look-Choice with kicking the Sorry A**es of the ones who abandoned being Human long ago - only to become ruthless, mindless Machines in a inhuman Machinery of a Society.
