Cool I hope they really tuned in to what was great about planetside and left out the not so great bits (mostly the spamming AOE fire down the 2 entrances to the base when under siege and the resulting lag).

Totally agree, but from what I've seen of the models it's not that much of an improvement (think they were posted on RPS a few months back).  I've lost all hope in Sony producing anything remotely decent these days (especially a MMO).  I do hope to be presently surprised though.

I don't see what's wrong with the new models, I like the more realistic art style they're going with, rather than PlanetSide's old goofy looking tanks (I'm looking at you, Prowler)

New idea- would I be able to use an external hard drive to add RAM and/or improve gigahertz?

    PlanetSide 2 is a Massively Multiplayer first person shooter that delivers truly epic, massive combat on a scale never before seen in stunning, breathtaking detail. Battles take place not between dozens of troops, but thousands; with air and ground vehicles slugging it out alongside squads of troops. Whether in open fields, tightly-packed urban centers or enormous structures, winning requires strategic teamwork and a quick trigger finger.

I can't wait to jump in as a Vanu soldier again. I sure hope they retain the MAX units and that the Vanu are the only jump capable ones :)

The Vanu Sovereignty MAX is in one of the pictures I posted.

Hounds been playing some Planetside 1 this week.

Turns out anyone with an account who has played before has 45 free days. Download the game and play.

CAN'T YOU SMELL THE MAX-CRASH?!

Planetside is one of the greatest games ever created. i have yet still to see an fps match the scale and scope of ps.i have hesitantly tentative expectations since ssony screwed up the original so bad. must retain faith
