Full PlanetSide 2 E3 Presentation

SOE has released the full version of the E3 presentation..

In the video they mention that the engineer can drop ammo but do not mention light assault dropping ammo. This appears to be a change from what we originally learned about the Light Assault class.

I could do this all day. Ricer tanks!

That said, I do find it amusing that the spoiler is on the slowest tank.

Well put together presentation. A bit more details on the teamplay aspect would have been nice though.

Maybe some kind of tracking ability.

Also I feel like sundy and gal sounds like a bad sitcom

edit: here is the link to the additional seats cert http://www.hamma.ws/ntemp/Vehicles/Galaxy.jpg

Well that rocks! I could see upgrading/side grade to more seats = dropping more troops on target!

Wonder of wonder, I see my beloved Spitfire turret has returned... but no land mines. If we lose the land mine, my Republic loses a valuable part of its corporate culture.

Is that screen cap of the entire screen...? It looks like you can scroll down a bit further....

I hope the customisations aren't quite as varied as they were in that demo; one of those soldiers looked like a cross between a shogun and a snickers bar

All of my time playing a Pyro in TF2 is about to pay off!

LA's could maybe have enhanced radar or visual range? That would fit their role. Maybe some kind of smoke grenade, something to mix up the battlefield or cloud advances?

Some of that could already be in of course

What I dont understand is how are they going to make money by selling goofy shit no one cares about? Zebra stripes? Spoilers on tanks?

They're hiding an awful lot about what the metaphorical crack cocaine will be that is intended to make them barrels of money.

My prediction: you all wont like it.

P.S.

I suppose they could run their business selling things like that... if they cost about 80 grande a piece, sure.

Boosters, and a constant stream of new skills that every one wants cert points for, on top of the original ones that will take 2 years total to unlock. Also weapon variations, skins and models.

Don't doubt people's vanity in a community either.
