Trays twitter pic of that Tech center is the best screenshot so far. really shows the massive scale, and how the lights reflects on the metal and shit, its awesome

The warpgate is inactive right? was the no-fire-zone confirmed within the active warpgates?

btw...the scale is immense!

from what we've heard the warp gates will be the invasion points of continents, there will most likey be Empire Specific Warp Gates which are no fire zones while inside the "bubble" or effect of the gate.

Think of them as the new continental sanctuaries.

It might just look inactive for the pictures sake or the graphic effect isn't finalised.

Really I'm hopeing it more about them being ready for when they introduce new continents and those new conts do not have sanctuaries.

Does anyone know what vehicle is this? Role?

It reminds me somewhat of the Lightning tank...

According to the comment with the screenshot, it's a Nanite System APC. I guess they will give more info on it and on the differences with Deliverer. Maybe smaller, faster and with less armor.

not the first three continents slated for release, they all will have a unconquerable warp gates for each of the Empires, you can certainly take all the territory hexes on a continent and force your rival back into his Warp Gate, there's no lattice system however.

this is SOE trying to speed up combat involvement by getting you to action as quickly as possibly.

hmm not good, so eventually in the end there will be a massive baserape. How the hell will you get out from that baserape if 500 attacking ur warp gate?

EVILoHOMER · 2012-04-24, 03:34 PM

Not liking the blue monitors in the aircraft, just looks bad.

The Janitor · 2012-04-24, 04:08 PM

Yeah but... a massive siege on a warp gate will look really cool! It'll be something to go for while the devs get together some other conts. with bigger, better objectives to fight over.

I have noticed that things have slowed down on this website and it has all of a sudden gone quiet , we going to get a beta date at E3 or sometime afterwards , I'm getting tired of waiting now and following this game is becoming depressing because of all the talk and the pictures etc , but there is no talk of beta or when higby or another dev gets asked about beta i noticed they try to avoid the question or change the subject , stop toying with us all and just giv us a beta date , oh and i was wondering if planetside 2 is successfull and a server can only support 5 k players , whats the back up plan if ps2 has 50k or 500k players on a server , because some of these mmo games have well over a couple of million players playing them , i mean look at Rift , that must have at least 3 mil players playing

So are warpgates now a type of base?

Hamma · 2012-04-25, 05:11 PM

Each empires foothold on the continents are within the warp gates.

I'm still not liking the idea of being unable to completely capture a continent. In my opinion that will take away a lot of the feeling of victory since even if you capture everything else the enemy will still be there in their foothold and able to take pot shots at you or vice versa.
