It's an advertisement trailer. When people think of war, they don't think of bright colors, just lots of dirt, grit, and rubble.
You'll also notice Planetside doesn't have blood anywhere within it.
When they get in game, sure it will be colorful. For what it's worth though, having the cinematic being just as colorful may have given it a more cartoonish feeling. Typically, 95% of the game populace looks at "cartoonish" and instantly thinks "for kids" because they're immature morons trying to pass themselves off as adults, but like any good ad, you don't want to dissuade the people you're trying to attract.
