I already feel like it's going to be 'Ugh. Old news...

That's been the case for the past few months, but keep in mind its because they've been so open to us (which is awesome). At this point, I think we're all waiting for one detail, the rest we can get after that.

I guess I'll watch and see if there's anything new, but I agree.

Maybe it'll be old news for us.
But not necessarily for FPS Guru's "readers".

Kipper · 2012-05-09, 12:23 PM

All the interviewers I've seen have been too nice... they want to start using techniques like finishing off with "So, thats Planetside 2, and Beta is out next month, right?" and just see if someone slips up

Satexios · 2012-05-09, 12:36 PM

I was thinking the exact same thing as you guys. When you look at the questions from the last interviews with Gamebreaker and Games Radar it is pretty much the default standard questions that Higby probably dreams about after giving the exact same answers over and over again.

Then again asking "critical" questions means they no longer get exclusives so they toss a bone to each other :P

Stardouser · 2012-05-09, 01:00 PM

Well, thus far, nothing has been so obvious as the pre-BF3 release interviews where it seemed like the only question interviewers were allowed to ask was about prone!

LZachariah · 2012-05-09, 01:04 PM

Right; one of the reason most of the news is already known to us is that Higby, T-Ray, and the team give us the inside info first and foremost, almost every time, God bless them. But hey, E3's coming up, so I think new amazing stuff will be on the horizon!

Hopefully he throws some new stuff at us too, whatever that may be.

laelgon · 2012-05-09, 01:10 PM

I think it's easy to forget that a lot of people haven't really heard of or been following Planetside 2, especially for those of us on here. I imagine that E3 is going to be the beginning of the big marketing push for ps2, and then we're going to start getting a lot more information.

Immigrant · 2012-05-09, 02:51 PM

Hope we hear some brand new details.

p.s. I anyone wonders about time that's 10 PM GMT.

Mod · 2012-05-09, 02:54 PM

11PM/23:00 BST

Immigrant · 2012-05-09, 03:15 PM

If that's 23:00 by BST then it's Saturday 00:00 my place.

I am an unbelievable pessimist when it comes to how most companies treat fans, the press and media. However I must say that I am royaly impressed of how SOE is handling PS2. Developers seems to be very close to the community of people that actually knows what the game have to be and cares about it. Bureaucracy and corporate greed = bad games, and they seem to understand that. I don't know where I'm going with this... just wanted say I appreciate SOE for handling it the way they are!

On topic: Old news or not... not everybody is here to get all the info first. And despite my previous rant, even I understand they do have to keep most of the major things that still are subject to change somewhat secret to not instil false hope/rage in the community and possibly lose players.

Bravic · 2012-05-09, 05:12 PM

Are you an fan of Planetside? Have you been waiting anxiously for a squeal?

What kind of squeal? ... OH! "Sequel"! For some reason I instantly thought something completely different.
