I can't say too much at this stage but rest assured no actual player data will be touched - If you are a veteran, you will continue to be a veteran.

Re: Smed Tweets update on ProSieben Deal


thanks again!

i suppose you have to get info from above for the next one...

will we be able to redeem station cash in ps2?
there was a sale of double station cash we europeans didn´t dare to buy because nobody could tell us, if we would be able to use it, or if pro7 would set up an own account/shop system, locking the stationcash out.

I believe it was confirmed that Pro7 wont use Station Cash, but I guess the more important question is that will the station cash get converted into the Pro7 dollahs

I've confirmed Brollywood's IP looks to be the real deal.

Welcome to PSU and thanks for dropping by to answer questions about this! It's been one of the bigger pieces of news as of late.

Sweet.

I'm not a Euro, but...






I now know for sure that I'll get to play with my Euro friends. Thank you.

I feel like I have to note that while I'm ecstatic that what appears to be a legitimate response from both sides of the region locking problem, I'm still looking forward to a full listing of those details related to us. Some of the questions I'd like to see answered are,

Edit:
Will existing SOE EU accounts still be allowed to convert their Station Cash to PSS1 Cash as originally stated here? (FAQ)
Will SOE still be hosting and maintaining the PS2 Servers in the EU as originally stated in the same FAQ?
Will Free-to-Play players see more in-game advertisements? Will subscription-based players see in-game advertisements at all?
Will PSS1 remove accounts after 90 days of inactivity as was originally stated in the comments somewhere in the FAQ previously linked. (Please say no.)


Also that I perfectly understand that answers take time. I'm just glad that we actually have someone talking to us instead of just putting us off with a "details to follow" then going mum for 4 weeks.

Edited in more ?'s. Okay, done editing

Sorry, couldn't resist.

For the questions I can answer -

Will existing SOE EU accounts still be allowed to convert their Station Cash to PSS1 Cash as originally stated here? (FAQ)
Yes

Will SOE still be hosting and maintaining the PS2 Servers in the EU as originally stated in the same FAQ?
Yes

Will Free-to-Play players see more in-game advertisements? Will subscription-based players see in-game advertisements at all?
There will be no in-game advertisements.

Will PSS1 remove accounts after 90 days of inactivity as was originally stated in the comments somewhere in the FAQ previously linked. (Please say no.)
No.


Just going forward I'll always try to answer you guys as quickly as possible when a) I know the answers and b) I'm in the position to let you know them.

Woohoo.
Looks like the real deal (if Hamma says so )

So - deepest thanks to SOE and PSS1 "high heid yins" that made this possible.

Looking forward to lagging the hell out of my US mates once more!

Re: Smed Tweets update on ProSieben Deal


Greetings Brolly, welcome to the community. Good to finally see some Pro7Sat1 peeps around.

Just a quick question: Do you guys still search for more guys for Planetside 2 related work? Asked the same about a month ago on the alaplaya forums, and did some research, but didnt go further as I was unsure how the deal would be altered after all the "feedback" (more like a nuclear bomb) of several communitys about the whole deal.

Those problems from it wont appear in Planetside 2. You wont get that crazy warping, you wont get that crazy lag, but it wont be as bad.
You will still see a difference between someone with a ping of 50 and someone with a ping of 150, but its most likley that extremly small that it doesnt matter.
I'll believe this when I see it in action.

Also, hi from me, I'm the product manager for PlanetSide 2 in Europe.
Yeah Made my day! Also thanks for clarifying about the server things. Sounds like we have nothing to worry about now!
