Ok guys, we all know it looks great. Post thoughts, spam, or flames here.

And: Is it just me is the NC agile in the first pic holding a punisher with a surpressor on his back? WTF?!?

Yeah I bet at least one on this forum has been accepted into the beta give us some pics if you can.

Wow! Those are the worst looking screenshots of PS I've ever seen! Seriously. Kudos to whoever made those new gem buildings of the ancients look like fossilized dog poop. (crystallized of course)

Honestly though, it looks like they did some copy/paste work from EQs Luclin caves. Those textures sure are stony alright. Yup... Grey too....

I can only imagine how much fun the devs had with the poly budget, too.

If you dont believe me on the poly counts, theres an interview somewhere where whatshisface said that CC would have much higher poly counts because of limited visibility and fewer people.

NEWSFLASH! Most people are getting crap FPS in small battles with options turned down already! Why do we need MORE lag? (This is before "framerate optimization" too)

Everything surrounding this expansion pack just makes me hate SOE more and more.

P.S. Whats with the messed up colors on the TR skeeter?

EDIT: Lol nvm pics didn't load or something.

erm....the mosquito has a different colour scheme, thats cool

Xxzard · 2003-09-17, 10:41 AM

Those are good pics i think they replaced trees with minerals

SilverLord · 2003-09-17, 10:52 AM

Jesus. I swear...you guys don't understand, maybe some do but this is going to be lag central. All those cave formations...it's going to be major lag around every corner. Same thing hapened with Shadows of Luclin for EQ. And there was only a few people when it was lagy, not 100+ shooting weapons and such. This is going to really bite.

Was talking with Rogue13 in PSU chat, he said thats the hossin cave. And those Vanguards are indeed re-textured

Valcron · 2003-09-17, 12:13 PM

Hey hamma,

The problem I have is the caves look very drab, and dull. Are those textures the textures of the crystals?

Are these screenshots the real deal, or low texture shots?

They just don't look right...
