News: PlanetSide Universe visits SOE Next Week!

[That one noob]

My only question would be whether or not we can change the minimap between terrain (blue with outlines) and satellite (color).

[Carbanu]

See! Good things come to those who wait! Congratulations guys.

ASK ABOUT CAVES! PLEASE!

[Senyu]

If you see anything labeled "Beta" snatch it and run for your life. As long as you post it online before they assassinate you, your sacrifice won't be in vain.



Srs, get some video footage to make a montage of the fun these guys have making this game and the family part of it.

[Ailos]

I want some live clegged up footage. Its the next most hilarious thing after watching Mythbusters fail. Preferably, with the master himself at it.

[Hamma]

That's not a bad idea...

Most definitely interested in cert trees info...

Awesome to see you guys heading there, bring us back some juicy info

Actually I do have a question that maybe you'll be better able to clarify (if someone can't already) after having played it yourself. Assuming of course you CAN tell us about this part. The quote below is how I explained to someone how I had come to understand certs/customization/learning skills would work in PS2. I could be totally wrong though, so I'd like to get that ironed out.

You can learn EVERY possible thing there is for a class/vehicle given you put enough time into it. However each one of those things cost a specific amount of certs.

So say I have an allotted 20 total certs to use and I've trained EVERYTHING in a class. I can only use however many will fit into that 20 cert range.

Customization 1= 5 certs
Customization 2= 10 certs
Customzation 3= 10 certs
Customization 4= 15 certs

I've trained all of them, but I can only use either 1&4 or 2&3 (etc) at the same time.

I figured that we're going to have loadouts similar to the original. So lets say I've trained a ton of things for Heavy Assault and I have two loadouts for it.

Base Assault
Base Defense

They each have their certs allowed maxed out but with different things, one being more offensive one being more defensive.

EDIT: I could be 120% wrong on all of this, it's just the way I've come to understand it so far but I could be totally missing something somewhere that I didn't read.

First. I hate you, both.

Second. I love you, both.

Third, I did a little happy dance in the living room thinking about all more neat stuff they may let you two walk away with.

Edit in: Some stuff I'm curious about is the same as a few other people posted.
-Map system: Toggle between monochrome and color?
-Scythe cockpit screenie would be nice.
-Do Vanu get an ES sniper or if it will have a good possibiltiy of being in post launch at some point or if Vanu/TR just have to make do with the NS variant. Also anything new in regards to the infiltrator's expected jobs not directly related to sniping, like how do they expect that an infil will be use knives, if he gets explosives or other saboteur related stuff.

Can you get a locke of Higby's hair for us?
I wanted to ask for some when I got my magazine signed but
I didn't wanna come across as a creeper.

No, but seriously, have fun, and get us some information!

[SniperSteve]

Yeah! Glad to hear you both get to go. Sure deserve it. All I want to know is when is beta!
