100 something current viewers of PS2 discussion, must be some kind of record or something.

The UI in this game looks amazing.

I think TB said it best in the comments when he replied to someone that said the game was looking to much like Saints Row 3 with the zebra camo and such.

I agree. If they get too outrageous with the customization it will kill the game for me. I want to play serious combat, not run around hitting people with dildos and applying completely unrealistic combat patterns.

Tone it down, SOE, BRIGHT patterns are a step in the wrong direction.

Maybe the Terran Republic has been looking up old war photos.

Not very good at blending into the terrain or sky, but it will be great when the enemy gets confused by 20 different Liberators all colored this way.

The sky! It's falling! Zebra camo and dildos oh my!

I find it funny that TB is making fun of other's complaints about games. While I appreciate his effort to bring some attention to Planetside 2, and enjoy a lot of his stuff, there isn't a bigger whinger out there than TB when it comes to gaming.

I'm sorry. You did play Planetside 1 right? I tend to remember plenty of bright reds, blues, purples, yellows, teals, and not so much grays, greens, and browns.

I love how the vehicles spawn in, just looks so good.

Gandhi · 2012-05-23, 12:50 PM

I'm not bothered by the bling, but I draw the line at silly hats. Paint jobs ok, different armor fine, but I don't want to see any top hats or cardboard robot suits or garbage like that.

I actually agree with Raymac. People will opt for different styles and I don't see anything wrong with that. And lets be honest, if you were in a war where death was just a minor inconvenience and vehicles could be summoned up out of the ground at will, wouldn't you go a little crazy with the decoration sometimes? Gotta keep the morale up after all

They're just placeholders, people.

The flying's looking pretty good so far. I'm interested in finding out how the whole VTOL thing feels.

The Kush · 2012-05-23, 12:52 PM

I like the skin options they have to make money somehow

+1 for the zebra I would buy it

Game is looking awesome

ringring · 2012-05-23, 12:52 PM

Fantastic and made me laugh too.

As regards the zebra camo not being realistic. Have you never heard of dazzle paint?

In WW2, ships were painted in garish black and white patterns, they looked wierd but it was extremely effective, however it had to be stopped as too many warships crashed into each other. -- Sounds wrong, but it's true.... look at Zyntech's post for only one example.

I suspect the zebra pattern will look fine on an ice continent.

** and as someone else said above, the walkaround TB did was great and the jet sounds at the end were super also ... I want to fly that thing!

Hey now. I may not be the biggest fan of Zebra camo, but I don't want to hear anyone bashing the mighty Vanu purple dildo of power. T'is a holy relic and it must be included in the cash shop.
