In the middle, MArsman will sing "Planetside Universe, YOUR NUMBER ONE SOURCE FOR PLANETSIDE INFORMATION" several times.

The file should be up by 7pm PDT... about 90 minutes from now. When I get home I can just slap the SD card in my computer and then upload via my broadband connection, shouldn't take more than a few minutes at that point.

Don't Forget To Be Awesome.

Liiinkk, naawww. Dont want to wait for hamma to put "PLANETSIDE UNIVERSE" every 10 secs!

Bags · 2011-09-15, 09:40 PM

So the shields are like borderlands then?

Happy we got a 50/50 split between regeneration and healing. Not 100% bloody screen and not 100% self heal.

Yay.

Hamma · 2011-09-15, 09:44 PM

We are processing the audio now I'd estimate 60 minutes at least before we get it posted up.

Miir · 2011-09-15, 09:54 PM

Hurry... I have to go to bed soon!

Other Stuff I Remember:

DX 9 is out (he thinks: designer not programmer)

You spawn in your load out and there are stations at which you can change your class.

Multiple continents at launch though he wouldn't commit to a number.

Deployable turrets: Manned only. He compared the weapon to a 50 cal. The person who deployed the turret will get some XP every time someone else gets a kill with it, though less than he would have gotten for making the kill himself.

Explosives & deployables will be different branches of the engy cert tree. "something like a boomer".

You can deconstruct in a spawn tube and reconstruct elsewhere.

Jump troops will be cut off from medic/engy support, part of the cost of doing business. No "jump medics".

Out of bounds areas will vary based on empire. The other empires' footholds will be Out Of Bounds. No worries about spies there.

Discussing gun ports for "do nothing" seats in sunderer.
