Only interesting point of store is buying resources. I hope its only for auraxium and not for Station Cash

18:47 is resource ahop. I dont see any station cash icons. Im pretty sure it will stay that way.

Why would anyone spend station cash in the beta anyway? All cosmetics are unlocked for everyone for testing purposes. Probably why they have disabled it.
Also, the cash shop isn't complete.

THIS.

For some reason this idea seems to fly right over the heads of a lot of people around here.

Anyone else notice at 10:30 he stuck himself with some sort of healing syringe?

Yes!

Change it, damnit!

easiest to see is at the end.....no hotdropping?? That's gonna take a whole bunch of gameplay out if that's true.

~2:10 "Flamethrower for your tank."

Hell yeah!

At the cost of the nose cannon and flight control, maybe (also, with pretty crap accuracy at higher altitudes especially since you can't easily check when you're over the targets and the disorientation effect from the new perspective). In any event, there is a huge trade-off to do it, and it could very easily be not worth it. Read the other threads for my thoughts on that.

Is there a link to better footage than this shaky cam?

Ruffdog · 2012-07-17, 05:48 PM

This is great footage. I had to turn the volume right up at the start and for a few seconds I was like "ugh what the hell" ... but Matt Higby; he's a gem. His passion for this game is only increasing if that's possible. There's no waffle, he chooses all his words. When he goes off on tangents, he comes back. He adapts to everything he's watching, in fact the chaos makes him more excited!

I defy anyone, vet or otherwise, who thinks they are burning out from hype, to watch this and not be amped again.

The war is coming!

DirtyBird · 2012-07-17, 05:53 PM

If there was an embargo on footage then the least they could have done is given the press some decent quality video to upload.
Great content agreed, delivery could have been better imo.

Solidblock · 2012-07-17, 05:57 PM

Glad everyone likes it, yeah the quality could be better. It's not an official source however.

Every new video that comes out the TTK looks longer than before. This is an AWESOME sign!

In some of the first videos I was concerned it was straying too far from Planetside 1 but now I think it looks like a really solid compromise between newer FPS games and PS1.

Steambot · 2012-07-17, 06:17 PM

Awesome video. This game is going to be amazing.
