Can I live (and die...alot) without it? Yes. Would it be an AMAZING addition to the game after release (hopefully not to long after?!)? Absolutely.

In other news, this would be a welcome addition and will probably get added in down the road.

Probably an ejection seat type thing.

The prone makes up for it

It's a lot of extra work, but it's something I really hope they put in down the road, its those small things that normally go unappreciated that made Planetside feel unique, and have a fluent world.

Ya know guys. I know that 99% of us agree to release the game now rather than wait 6 months, but I also know a very large % of us want Exit/Enter animations to EVENTUALLY be added. Anyone know if Higby has stated that they will after release, or if they will work on it all along for 6 months or so for us?


Though, I see why it'll take so long. They haveto animate the vehicle too, but there could possibly be some conflicts with the modifications, so getting it to work without breaking the vehicle is probably the issue. They had trouble with turrets, still do (to a minor extent). I believe that once they get the game release it won't take 6 months to make the animations, since similar work in the game would have figured out issues that would have arisen before.

They were great and should be implemented in as soon as all the major work is done. I will go as far as to say i would donate extra cash for it.

I have a feeling its gonna either have to be in at launch or not at all, adding the animation post launch will change the vehicle dynamics in a fire fight. So I can see all the BF'ers (not diggin' just closest thing I could think of) would get up in arms when suddenly a familiar system is changed.

This is one of those things I feel like they won't actually add down the road. I would hope but a major mechanic like this? I hope they do but it's just something I see the devs saying just to ease our nerves and not actually do.

Higby has stated on many things, including this, that if the players want it, they'll add it. So there's always a chance if we keep wanting them.

It's not even a "mechanic". They just make animations for entering the vehicle and force those to play before you gain control of it.
