Aloha Artimus and Henray. A bunch of us are looking forward to PS2 and would really like to get some more info from SOE like dates. I will most likely resub from time to time just because until BF3 releases there are not any other good options. Our WoW guild went AFK as most of us lost interest and the PVP balance is horrible.

Henray for the footzerging it must be TR as I don't believe PS2 will stop that tradition.

Can't wait for this game. Skyrim and PS2 are the games I'm most looking forwards too. And don't worry, we'll know when the alpha/beta come out because MONKEY will manage to get into I'm sure.

Some more info on Planetside Universe

We're going to have hundreds if not thousands of certs at launch. These will vary from certs that unlock new weapons, implants, vehicles, weapon/vehicle attachments and class skills to ones that allow for faster reloading, less cone of fire, larger ammo capacity, and yes, additional damage. When we say overall 20% increase in power we're talking holistically, not necessarily "each of your bullets do 20% more damage! a winner is you!".

The spirit of the PS2 cert system is very much based around the PS1 paradigm of advancement by addition of situational flexibility and overall breadth of gameplay options. A good fps player playing light assault with minimal certs will always kick the shit out of a bad fps player playing light assault with a lot of certs.


We're doing assist XP, it'll affect for kills earned by your squad greater than outside your squad, but there will be some bonus for outside of squad assists also. There will be some graduation to it as well, if you do 90% of the damage to an enemy and someone swings in and finishes them off you'd get more than if you just randomly hit an enemy with one bullet in a massive firefight.


I was just looking at some kickass day/night cycle work this morning, in fact. It was pretty dark at night and the purple and yellow tracers sporadically illuminating the world was pretty slick.


Some interesting updates and even though they have not released any dates they keep hinting that it will be sooner than people expect.

i signed up and applied for the beta. not sure whether or not i'll get a beta key or not considering my laptop's specs were only about halfway on the options.
but, fingers crossed.

didn't play the first planetside, but i'm big on vehicle warfare (BF2/3), and hoping this laptop can run it, even if i have to run minimal graphics.

Hey dusk good to see even more old faces. Don't worry if your comp lags too much just hide behind monkey and use him as a meat shield.
