You have access to every gun, armor type, and vehicle right from the start. And the notion of an "inferior" weapon is something the dev team is trying hard to stay away from. Also, once you unlock a sidegrade, you have it forever. You pay for it once, and every time after that it's free.

As to the resources, I'm unsure about empire vs. individual but I noticed in some of the stats screens that the characters had some amount of 4 different types of resources.

If I remember correctly, you get an allowance depending on how many resources your empire is getting. So You spend your resources on the sidegrades.

Can you even select certain loadouts if you don't have appropriate resources to "purchase" the loadout when you spawn?

Once you purchase a weapon, you always have it if I recall.

Do you spawn with inferior versions of the guns if you can't afford the resources?

Are resources shared between your entire empire? Or do you gain resources personally?

Once you buy gun X, do you own it forever to use in your loadouts, or do you have to rebuy it after an amount of time?

If your empire owns no territory/resources, how are you supposed to purchase the guns? Are you forced to buy them with real cash your empire has 0 resources left?
Just a few things I think might help. Hopefully Higs can give some more info here.

I really just think that while higs was hiding and talking, and then getting ammo that they took it. He DID tell them to let them push up and take it, so I am guessing someone got in there long enough to capture it.

I don't think they actually captured it. I think it was flipped using devhax.

im loving it!

the only two things so far that i wont miss at all if they remove would be:

the kill cam - it takes away from the tempo of the game, again its alpha i know, but PS2 can do without one, its a complicated crutch, not a feature of necessity

the xp point in middle of screen - anyway that can be disabled?
Agreed, the kill cam was distracting to me. Especially when the medic revived higby while the cam followed the team killer. Hope it can be disabled if it stays.

It is looking incredible! All of the combat looks gorgeous. I feel I'm being pulled to play for NC this time around though. The vanguard and Reaver are hot.

Re: Video of GDC Media Event


i'm curious how that proces works. do you have to hack 1 point or multiple points? guess i'll have to wait and see

Just rewatched part 2 with the buggy floating magrider and shortly thereafter someone "accidentally" tripping over a wire haha. it's a little obvious they didnt want to show that xD.
But i think everybody understands that's just ps2 alpha stuff

This is amazing, thank you very much for showing it to us. I cannot wait to get my hands on this game.

Did anyone catch how the base was captured? Was there a hack or was it having a lot more NC in the area than TR kind of like BF capture points? If you watch the "bonus footage" video above, in the upper right corner there is a circle that fills up with red and then it says "facility lost." That is what made me wonder if capturing a base is similar to a BF conquest capture point.

*didn't show up in the original Higby capture video

The air physics are awesome. I was getting motion sick just watching you fly around. The tank and infantry combat was great as well.
