He mentioned in his "welcome to SOE so we will skin you alive before we know anything" thread that he played PS1 in the earlier years . Did say he was impressed with the scale, but I dont recall him commenting on the playstyle. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Had a feeling he was going to lean towards TR, hope I get a chance to squad up with him and pump some lead into Mr. Higby!!!

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at PS2's page and wonder why beta isn't here yet~
Cause I been cappin' and laggin' so long
that even PSU thinks mah mind is gone
But I ain't never fragged a vanu who didn't deserve it...

Don't you mean TR?

Will there be a first person passenger view, so it looks like we're actually flying in the galaxy? If not, that would be awesome to add in last second.

Hamma · 2012-07-03, 02:24 PM

Nice we will get it posted up on the front page when you post it.

Will we be seeing planetside weapons videos soon? Especially TR Weapons. Also has he played Planetside yet and if so does the K/D ratio suffer from playing 200x200x200 compared to 16x16? But being that planetside is the only game that I really play anyone that plays other games can answer this.

Awesome idea ! Can we get the channel link right now so we can subscribe and see it at time ? Ty

Infernalis · 2012-07-03, 03:33 PM

He says he likes TR weapons the most. Considering he loves the AK-47 in CS I thought he would prefer NC weaponry.

The problem with calling types of play 'intelligent' is that what is a sound tactic and what is not differs greatly from game to game. Smart tactics in ArmaII would be completely worthless tactics in Tribes 2, and vice versa.

Bursting and recoil control, as such, are intelligent moves only if the game penalizes them. Not all games do so, including games that are considered highly skill based.

Oh, and regarding your remark on 'Watered down' fps mechanics of modern shooters.. Have you considered the idea that they're not, in fact, watered down, and instead just not what you prefer? Have you considered as well the idea that some may consider mechanics you prefer 'needlessly obtuse'?

QFT!
