SERVERS WILL BE UP AT 2PM (that's an estimate) - FLAGGING WILL HAPPEN WHEN SERVERS ARE UP FOLLOWED BY EMAILS. THIS IS JUST AN ESTIMATE

John Smedley ‏@j_smedley
THAT IS 2PM PST. WHENEVER I QUOTE A TIME IT IS ALWAYS PST. THAT IS ALL

Bit slow there

Also why did the mods move my thread :<

EDIT: To the people who can't figure out timezones, seriously its not hard. http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/tim.../pacific-time/

GW2? Cooommmmeeeee onnnnnnnn! This is PS2 we're talking about!

So what are you guys going to do first? I am getting suited up as an Engineer, looking at the toys I can get for that class and then earning enough resources to get a reaver first and then a liberator!

First thing I'm gonna do is; start off as a Light assault- just try out the jetpack and shoot at walls just to get a feel. Then I will spawn a Reaver and fly around in friendly territory, after that I'll spawn a vanguard and try that out. Once I've learned all the controls I'll join up with my newfound DevilDog brethren and kick some some ass in an organized manner

Yusssss! Praise Smedley!

I can't wait to join an outfit as well. Sturmgrenadier and DevilDogs seem to the big guys right now.

Nordan · 2012-08-24, 04:23 PM

wait what wow?

Oh man I had some work to do this weekend... I'll have to save it for later it seems.

This is taken from a review written about PS2 a while ago. How many of us can relate to this article come this weekend?

---------------------------------------------------------------

It's Sunday evening when you get the call. You're putting out the bins, ready for rubbish collection, when your iPhone gives an urgent beep. It's the PlanetSide 2 app, telling you that one of your bases is under attack, that Vanu tanks are within firing range, that your squad has swung into action. A few taps of the screen tells you which squadmates are already en route. A friend messages you, urging you to join them because, hell, you're the most qualified Prowler pilot they've got. You rush to the PC, and you fire up the game.
The squad leader's already barking out orders through voice over IP. That's funny, you say, you thought she was on holiday. She tells you she is; she tells you she's issuing orders from her hotel room, tablet in hand. She tells you things won't be quite so funny when the Vanu capture those vital resources and turn them against you. She's squinting at a battle map that fills the tablet's screen, trying to anticipate the enemy's attack, and she has instructions for your deployment.
You do a quick background check on the incoming forces, because you swear those custom decals are familiar. Yeah, that's right, you tangled with this unit back at that research facility, about a week ago. It didn't go well, but since then you've unlocked a few more certifications on the Prowler, a few more surprises to stuff up your sleeve. The tank's engine roars into life and the moment your gunner climbs in, they've auto-joined you on voice chat. "What's our orders, boss?" he asks, and for just a moment you stare out the window at your neglected bins. "It's time," you tell him, "To take out the trash."

Holy crap!

Btw, umm... i'm not so great at time conversions (yes, even looking at sites i almost always make a mistake) but from my calculations 2pm PST is roughly 3.5hs from this post, right?

edit: haha i remember that review, that intro is pretty awesome!
