Actually they have, and it's called a loophole. An "official" screenshot has to go through a relatively lengthy approval process before it gets released. On the other hand a "behind the scenes" phone pic posted to twitter is a loophole around that process and we get to see it immediately.

Sniping in PS was probably the most balanced sniper in the history of gaming.

The dynamic lighting is fucking gorgeous. I'm so excited about the day/night cycle.

Racism against cloakers.

Perhaps Hamma should make a sticky (that would most likely be ignored anyway) explaining to these guys this. Although Mightymouser has been here long enough and should know this himself.

It's NC cloaker. The little antennas on his crouched faced-down posture poke his shoulder-back upwards.

Just imagine the cloaker/sniper in that tree at night.

Darklight. Hopefully it'd be a standard helmet feature for every armor except cloaker suits. Not an implant anymore, which I always found to be distasteful...




Motion Sensor should also do something else.
  1. Reveal nearby enemies on radar (like PS1).
  2. Flashing florescent revealing nearby cloakers (new to PS2).

That tree is swarmed with snipers. They must be breeding there! Kill that tree!

Green: 2 unstealthed snipers
Blue: Steathed one (best visible zoomed out)
Red: unsure. it looks like silhouette of one, but is far distance/a lot smaller than other three.

We now have new info on PS2! Snipers grow/spawn from trees.

Personally,

I've always thought dark light was over powered since 9 out of 10 people had that implant. Made cloakers ALMOST insignificant in my opinion, more like a free kill. I don't think the DL options should even exist in PS2.
