Quite common. Watched the last AGN a few days ago, wasnt sure why exactly Hamma keeps allowing me to come along. I sound like a fool.

This is efficient work from SOE. Using already made game footage to create a completely new video, with a little bit of time from Higby. Good work guys, nice to see you using your time as efficiently as possible till more important things are done. BTW I know you will have much more to show in the next few months.

10/10 from me.

BTW whoever it was that came up with the idea, give them a pat on the back from me

I like this kind of new from old.

It's a bit disappointing for us who have seen all this stuff a million times, but I find this worth the effort for generating some hype and for new players in general.

We have to remember we are minority.

Everything happens in waves Core, and my thoughts are we are coming to the end of a wave. Like the Planetside Promo V1 is ending. I think we are going to see an influx of media and videos, all polished etc soon. Even before beta.

"The TR also believe in strength in numbers, a lot of their vehicles and a lot of their weapons systems require more players to operate them"

We have apparently learned nothing over the years

The subsequent line "they are generally as effective 1v1 as other empire soldiers" makes me even more worried. This is a hit or miss development for the TR, just look at the old Prowler to learn what NOT to do.

Right, dont give him a powerful main gun AND a powerful secondary gun, pared with a dedicated driver. Its OP.

And those who never understood it never learned how to use a prowler. A good secondary gunner meant DEATH to all ground and air stuff around.

Not to mention that prowlers could be repaired super fast with the 3-man crew. Along with the possibility of auxiliary dps from one of the gunners who could bail and use the striker or jam things up.

Anyways, that video was great. Very nice rythm, not too fast, not too slow, not too complicated, not too simple, etc... Just very smooth to watch.

Anyone else noticed the music ?

--> T-Ray, can we get names on that one ?

Ranik Ortega · 2011-12-22, 07:58 PM

"you can have a dedicated main gunner and secondary gunner"

"you can repair faster with three people"

Confirmed for not TR.

Needing an extra person to do the same job still makes no sense and never will.

If they follow the Driver/Main gun + Secondary gunner, style then TR having an additional secondary gun follows the TR theme but then makes me wonder if it swings balance too much in the other direction.

Put a good Prowler gunner on a magrider gun and you dominate everything with one gun.

Not sure about that but I understand the gist. I gunned so much for prowlers that eventually I had the trajectory down to an art and when you have the trajectory down you can fuck with planes in very silly ways

Son of a..., I just noticed that the Vanu Infil has the Mandalorean T visor on the helmet.

Now I might have to reconsider my empire
