They are aiming at 3-4 year old machines so you should have a dx10 capable pc to run it.

I understand that not everyone can spend lots of cash of pc upgrade but mines directx11 capable and cost something like £300 because i bought used parts apart from the graphics card (gtx460 1gb)

Theres plenty of time before release to start saving

Are those Prowlers in the far background?

Also, those untextured buildings look great. I can't wait to see the final bases.

This game can't hit beta fast enough.

Yeah i noticed that the base is split into sections, with shields inside the base walls which is strange. The things that worries me is the sheer size, it looks like a small city lol. How would you capture a base like this? This is just the outside, imagine what the inside looks like.. never mind the defenses they will probably put in there. It will be a large task to take a base like this im sure.

cant wait to try!

Damn.

What are the little cylinder things above the lower vanguards? there are some off on the road to the left also, turrets or something?

Tearing these screenshots apart is the only thing keeping me sane. Battlefield 3 and call of duty don't even interest me at this point. Even eve has started to feel so stale.

I imagine it has multiple sections that you can attack, a bit like a territories gametype. The sheer size of it means the defense will be spread thin too.

Quite a bit of vanguards too.
lots of TR NC stuff in this picture but top right hand side between and above the two NC galaxys could that be a VS dyson?. dunno looks shaped a lil differently

Looks AMAZING!, and if this pic is from the unfinished article (which was stated) .. then i see GREAT thing's for PS2!!

Fab · 2011-10-27, 07:06 AM

Only good question : Why the fuck are these mossies just standing there without attacking the NC galaxies ???

I wanna see the rockets and explosions !!!

A phone call or e-mail from a supermodel is more interesting than all the time in the world spent with someone who is just, well, not in that league.

It looks like a Mosquito.
You can see the top "foil" and it has the same tail

They are arguing over radio with the Ministry of Munitions to authorize the expenditure of ordnance

These 2 buildings look interesting (use the full size image from the front page for better viewing). I first thought they were pillboxes/bunkers, but if you look at their position in combination with the gates they might be the gate shield generators/ control rooms. Could also be entrances to the base sub-levels (if there still are any).

MockZero2 · 2011-10-27, 08:35 AM

Hmm no obvious for vehicle spawning. Judging by the size of this base these are going to be some massive battles so vehicles are going to need to be spat out a bit faster then what we are used to me thinks.

ALong with everyone else though this does look absolutely amazing!!!

BlazingSun · 2011-10-27, 08:37 AM

Consider me impressed.
