Sounds like you plan to clean your secret lair on friday evening?

Actually, just use your skype thingy and ask Matt about the QnA. He didnt reply to my Tweet 2 days ago, propably missed it because of all the robot spam he gets all day.

He did say next week, but as all the Q&As have been on Friday, that's when I assumed it to be

(Especially as he said next week on Friday, so exactly one week further would again be Friday

)

Anyhow, if it does not happen officially, I will just start asking them questions unofficially (yet publicly) on twitter. Just a couple a day should at least give us some interesting answers

Aren't they supposed to have that big internal demo on friday? Will there be room for the Q&A on that day? Anyhow, some more questions:
-----

Approximately what percentage of the VS weapons will have regenerating ammo?

Will we be seeing a return of the Maelstrom as a VS ES HA weapon?

Will there be any teleportation in Planetside 2, either as a VS ability or a commonpool engi device?

You're pretty awesome, for a smurf.

LZachariah · 2011-11-30, 05:59 PM

We VANU absolutely appreciate it! O:-) And even if we are't going to be privvy to this demo that you are presenting on Friday, our prayers are with you that it turns out great and that all the observers (from the underlings to the top brass) gain a better understanding of how monumental this game is and how it is going to truly change (AND DEFINE) the MMOFPS genre.

Personal message aside, I will continue posting my questions for tomorrow's Q&A.

Q: Will NS weapons be equal to faction-specific weapons (ie- various different strengths and weaknesses)? Or will faction weapons just be better (ie- higher on the unlock trees)?

Q: How will Scythe weapons differ from Reaver/Mosquito weapons?

Wait, 5 PM PDT? Didn't you guys switch back to winter time (PST) a few weeks ago? That said, PST I can probably make, PDT I probably won't be near a computer

Higby, there are still opportunities for you to always reconsider your allegeance before things heat up and the never-ending war goes live.

Q: Will the soldier/command UI be customizable like in PS1 (more would be even better)?

Whoops that is indeed a mistake it's PST in SD, currently 2hrs behind me.

Captain1nsaneo · 2011-12-01, 07:56 AM

Q: Will people have crouch accuracy while in the sunderer? It would make a great place to snipe from if so.

Oryon22 · 2011-12-01, 09:08 AM

Q: Can you better explain the Scythe's flight mechanics?

You said "UFO" like, but does that mean they can immediately start flying sideways, backwards, etc? Or is it still a more traditional flight mechanic with added maneuverability such as yaw, thrust vectoring, blah blah.

That won't fit into Twitter

Which of the planes CAN'T hover and everything in all directions?
