smed tweeting again - Page 3

Don't get me wrong, I am just as ready as everyone else for a big announcement or something. BUT I would love to see the clock count down until SOE crushes the souls of hundreds of dedicated PS Gamers. I would love to feel the sadness emanate from my computer screen LOL. 23 hours left...

Do you guys really expect it to be announced now though? Everyone would wonder if it was an April fools joke. Maybe that is what the smiley was.

I find it a bit hilarious that we go crazy over some minor tweets from Smedley.

Damn I bet he is browsing these forums as a unregistered user and laughing his ass off. I know I would if that little info from me had that much impact.

No, I didn't download it from you. And it's mislabled for shits and giggles, not view counts.

How is saying a video is something that it's not, funny?

Lucage · 2011-03-31, 04:06 AM

You're getting your knickers in a twist. Seems pretty funny to me.

In this case its minorly funny because of the idea that Planetside 2 or Next will simply be a unfinished version of Planetside. This ties in with the quality of many of SOEs launch and bought game titles such as SWG, EQ2, Matrix online and Vangaurd. However this idea may be out of date as SOE has manage to launch Freerealms Online, a free to play kids game, with no major issues or design issues. They have also launched DC universe Online, another kids game I mean a console and PC game, that also only had a small load of things that were stupid.

Non of those games were any good however and only suitable for dwarf lovers (Elf lovers went to WoW).

We need a real war game! And I want it by march... next year.

Want a bag of lemons to go with your pint of bitter?

You seem easily amused Lucage.

SOE is closing studios, the agency may not even launch, and that game was announced and everything. I don't think it will happen this month, or any month folks. Radio silence means that they probably found out that SOE was closing studios and the project got scrapped. I'm so sorry all. Hopefully someone else will pickup the project.

That doesn't actually say anything worth worrying about. It's all just a bunch of mights and guesses.

It's absolutely worth worrying about, but yes, it still comes down to nights and guesses.

I tend to not give rumors much attention.

I'm clinging to the hope that PlanetSide Next will be finished even if The Agency is not. My reason for this optimism is that PlanetSide Next is creatively quite easy to make, i'd be happy with a new paint job and a couple of new vehicles.

The Agency seems like its had a lot of difficulties figuring out its core game play and content, its just one of those games that sounds more and more niche every time you hear something about it.
