In Planetside 2, everything is made of Dust.

Just saying, do we really need so much dust everywhere, on everything?

You just ruined my perfect evening of delicious frozen pizza, with another one of your "awesome" posts. Well done!

Zebasiz · 2012-07-17, 02:37 PM

Totally right.

We need MORE!

Indar baby!

They are in the desert. I too live in the desert.

Pretty accurate picture, in fact there should actually be way more dust.

It IS a Desert, after all.

Tanks in a sand desert, firing and exploding.

How could it possibly NOT involve dust and smoke everywhere?

Its a very dusty game. Only one other game I know of seems to surpass it with its lens flair.

I actually question the level of visability there is after something like a tank round hits its target. It basically disappears in a cloud of smoke, so you don't know if they moved or in what direction. Then you combine that with the massive numbers, and you can see how it could get messy.

I love large explosions as much as anyone. I'm even a fan of Michael Bay and Jerry Bruckheimer movies. I just wonder if Planetside 2 will look like this:

^ That's what any sane person would get from my post.

In many shots, I really feel they went overboard with the particle effects. Namely, dust.

Envenom · 2012-07-17, 02:49 PM

Why yes. Yes we do.
