He's here to kick ass and chew bubble gum. Fortunately, he doesn't run out of bubblegum.

Also, WTF? Lizard Bottler? I had to google it and I still have no freakin idea.

So the NC get three MAXes?

I see, now. They're unable to have modular arm parts so they require separate builds for each type.

Little taste about the outfit system in there...

My name is Jon Weathers and I’m the Systems/UI Design Lead on PlanetSide 2

Hello Jon! We should talk!

I made a thread that might interest you in case you missed it...

I have a bit of a soft spot for good UI.

I of course love http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...higbyjesus.jpg but you and Kevmo are a close second behind Josh. He's TR, sorry, the good drinks are for him first. You understand.

The game was received very well by the crowd. I think a lot of them were pleasantly surprised at the progress we've been making on the game.

We were fucking stunned. Until GDC we had seen random screenshots and a fairly "meh" trailer as far as FPS games go. For all intents and purposes PS2 was vaporware until GDC. Post-GDC footage I've had several coworkers suddenly have interest in the game where before they were not impressed and thought I was high praising it and walking around with a PS2 shirt on.

disc golfer, and lizard bottler

lol What is a lizard bottler?
