As for projectile weapons, isnt that what most weapons (at least for NC and TR) have been in PS too?

The jet-pack idea is cool. I played a lot of Tribes 1 and 2.

Yeah, the projectile weapons were in PS, but this game is different and I was just pointing it out for confirmation purposes in the new game. Those rifles remind me somewhat of my M4 build. Like a flat top upper receiver.

It's unfortunate that those pictures are in such a small resolution. I wish they were larger so we could see more detail, but I guess beggars can't be choosers. I'm more than happy to see some new screenshots, despite how there's really nothing new in them.

[Coreldan]

Overall I like the "realistic"'ish some of the weapons (except VS again... ) seem to have. Like the "basic" NC and TR rifles we've seen so far seem like things that could actually be issued to the masses.

You vaguely see what look like glowing lights on the sides of the warpgate. Also, perhaps the bubble doesn't render at the extreme range or perhaps it's more transparent this time around.

Still, it's very cool to see the warpgates in the background of the battlefield. In PS1 they were sort of secluded and far away from the main fight. Seeing one in the distance over a mountain while you're fighting is very cool !

They are now rehosted in our media library and news is up!

So, if I shoot a TR in that little orange clit button, does that mean they are forced to eat a sandwich, take a nap, then promise to call me?

Yeah, if you click Hamma's link you can see them in a higher resolution. The weapon clearly resembles a Pulsar they a much more purpler tint to them.


Unless they're talking about the dead NC behind them that I just noticed.

Im glad we got some new planetside 2 info today cause ive been jonesing lol

[Death2All]

I haven't seen a really detailed close up view of any character in PS2 yet and I have to say I really like the art direction they're taking.

Have uniform upgrades been confirmed or hinted at at all? Whenever you got a new uniform upgrade it felt pretty awesome to see the new colors and you got a feel for who was more of a bad ass than anyone else. If everyone has the same default color scheme that would be rather lame, although they did say there is a lot of customization you can do for your character so I guess we'll have to wait and see .

I linked these SS in my information thread... not really information, but it's something.
