Somebody's going to say something. You know someone will say something. Does this count?

And yet... in the backstory that was put out at http://www.planetside2.com/news/nov092011backstory,

I am proposing bringing business, unions and, well, yes, even the mercenaries together in sort of a new conglomerate.

This, after they had gone through the wormhole.
Not important to the gameplay in the slightest, and the gameplay definitely trumps backstory in my book, but...

What I mean is, great interview Mr. Higby; I'm glad you're on the project!

Done.

Pretty cool stuff. I've always liked looking at your average NC soldier as a pissed off unioneer.

Actually they go through the wormhold in 2638, so this predates the expedition by 8 years.

Marshall should be martial, which is of course MMORPG.com's fault and not Hamma's.

The Kush · 2012-06-01, 05:05 PM

Love my NC can't wait to destroy all the pathetic VS and TR opposition that stands in our way.

Hatchak · 2012-06-01, 10:13 PM

That picture in the interview pretty much resumes everything, NC unloading onto that poor VS on the ground, made me lol

Envenom · 2012-06-01, 10:17 PM

NC are as boring as ever it seems. Was kind of hoping for some kind of "evil" alliance of several megacorporations that was using the good intentions of people who want to make a difference to become the dominant power on Auraxis. Need moar grey!!!
