Re: Ps2 Community Day


I just want to preface this by saying that Higby said its cool to post positive thoughts about stuff people have already seen. My impressions from the day.

1. Gunplay is smooth as butter. The shooting mechanics are just as, if not more refined than all the other AAA shooters. It's a wonderfully improbable blend of twitch gaming and precision ADS styles. Everything is tight, fluid, and responsive.

2. Flying is HARD. It seems like your worst enemy is gravity itself, and I found myself in an eternal war with the laws of physics while I tried to keep my boat in the air for my gunners to be effective. That being said, I love that it takes a lot of skill and understanding of your aircraft to be a good pilot. The skill gap is going to be through the roof.

3. Scythes are NASTY in air to air combat. My Skeeter didn't stand a chance

4. The graphics are absolutely awe inspiring. 1080p videos truly don't do them justice. It's simply the most gorgeous shooter I've ever seen.

5. Running around as a pyro Max is way more fun than I thought it would be. I felt like a walking barbecue.

Overall, I'm flabbergasted that something this awesome even exists. Best gaming experience I've had in a while.

Video (not my recording):



Midway:

"There are... over 100,000 vets."
"So we are going to send our first wave"
"and there are going to be a bunch of vets like"
"I played this game for 9 years... Blah Blah"

I went, and played for hours!

... in my crazy fantasy brain... while stuck in traffic in a totally different state.

I think I went full insanity at one point and imagined an entire planetside 2 movie.

Two games, nearly a decade apart, camping the same damn forums for news

Ye, it sounds like something is happening on Tuesday, judging by the video there is a press embargo until then.

The gaming press is probably being given until Tuesday to get their stories done and posted before they allow fans to talk about it. Makes sense.

Regarding the video:
"There's going to be leader boards" ...and there were leader boards in PS1, not a new thing. Cough godjoey cough.
"How much was subscription?" At release I think it was 13 bucks per month on the monthly plan but I know you could buy year long subs that were less per month. Price went up over time and is currently at 15.
100,000 vets... wow. That's a huge number. Is that including the Chinese players or is that just US and EU servers?

The camera got a few glancing hits on screens with game play. Anyone dare to pull out those frames and enhance? We're not breaking NDA if we haven't signed it yet

Yes because you can't post feedback here.

Sardus is going to be on AGN tonight talking about the game, he was also at community day so be sure to tune in.

At the time of posting Reddit was the only spot I could find some info that Subaru was asking for and I got that via twitter.
If you are referring to me not reposting the info then sorry I didnt feel like sorting the chaff from the grain when its just as easy to post a link while he was still logged in here.
I was only trying to assist Subaru by sharing what I had found at the time.
I didnt go to the event and if the poster on Reddit chooses not to post here its not my problem.
Reddit also have a link to PSU on their site in the top banner atm.

Shouldn't be an issue where stuff is posted but my humble apologies.
