Anyone excited for Planetside 2?

Post by Sti_Jo_Lew » 21 May 2012, 16:23

I recently saw a video by TotalBiscuit on this game, and oh my god does it look amazing! The lighting effects are absolutely stunning, the combat looks very fluid and balanced, and the fact that every battle in this game actually matters makes it even than BF3 IMO. And this is ALPHA footage. Add on to that fact that they are going with a F2P model whose micro-transactions will be for visual customization and not pay-to-win items, and this could be my first ever "MMO" I actually enjoy.

Here is that footage from TB:

It seems to fit in of sorts with Black Ops II's "Near future" theme.

Not to me. Black Ops "near future" is in 2050 or something like that. This game is set way farther in the future, when there's space travel and anti-gravity tanks and such.

Me neither. I just wish I had a PC that could run it though. :lol:
