Checkmate screenshot via Higby

Since no one else has posted it yet.

I spy a new scope (possibly night vision) and what looks like a large drum mag.

I have no idea what's up there. But while staring I noticed just how nice the gauss looks.

Commander: "That was the worst landing ever. Of all time."
Pilot: "Not my fault. Someone put a Biolab in the way."

Looks like a crane... but it's probably not.

Also... the lighting is amazing!

Higby clegged up. Thats a Gal on the top. also, imagine if it was deployed. best spawn point ever.

Just noticed the Gal on top of the biolab. Nice landing.

I hope the gameplay is as good as the visuals!

Still amazing how the game looks for the scale its trying to achieve. I just hope they are not sacrificing total numbers for eye candy. I think what I like the best about it is the pure wide open environments with real massive structures in them. In pretty much every other FPS on the market these days its all smoke an mirrors. 2D backgrounds where your funneled down little hallways in the actual gameplay. But this is a wide open large world. Probably hasn't been much like it since the original Crysis.

I actually thought it was a crane on top of there at first. I'd like to see more real logistical infrastructure around. I appreciate the humour though

.

Is there any definitive answer yet as to whether or not day/night is synchronised to the server time? I'd love to have the sun setting as I set up with my outfit mates for a night of carnage.

Doubt the scope is night vision. Possible, but based on the fact that you can see through a small sliver of the scope and it's clear, doubtful.

Incredible.

It's great to hear people at work getting excited about PS2 when they'd never even heard of the first one. These screenshots nearly sell the game by themselves.

Stunning, these screenshots are truly amazing. I can't wait to get in game.

The Gauss looks pimp.
