If they go B2P to F2P .. I'm in .. but I wouldn't buy the game then add a sub on top of that as well.. I just wouldnt' put that many hours in it to justify that cost..

I just read not actual gameplay footage or something = a complete waste of time.
I like what Calve have done with their Source Engine - Source Film-maker.

Ok... Soo come launch day all the new blood will go to VS and NC... Poor poor reds... we never get any love. Fortunatly we are soo cool that we can handle that =P
If its like the first one without BFR's it will be great with the graphics we have seen from the few gameplay videos released. My concerns based on PS1 are whether I will be able to play or locked out of maps due to population caps since it will be f2p. This was very frustrating sitting in the transportation bubble thing waiting to join the fight.
i've seen all the game footage on utube ... but the trailer even if its nothing like the actual gameplay was pretty awsome ... i was like oo sci-fi movie :) but after 3:31 min it ended ..[mod edit]
The game play is "Almost" as awesome as the video guys. There are tons of videos out now that show all the awesome gameplay and thousands of people have had hands on experiences with it.
While i agree you won't be able to take out people inside of a Galaxy Troop Transport while riding on top of it, you will be able to do pretty much everything else, including the jetpacking (as a light assault)
The scene with hundreds of enemies waiting over the ridge and the squadrons of planes flying in, those are totally true.
Lots of hate over a trailer. I enjoyed it, I think it would be a decent action movie. I think its no better or worse than all the people who fell in love with Master Chief from Halo over the damned trailers.
Sorry, but to all those complaining that this isnt game footage - have you never seen a trailer before? Never played a video game with some amazing movie at the start? No?
There is a ton of gameplay footage on the net and on this site, and has been for months. Just enjoy the cool little movie they made and stop complaining just for the sake of it.
Lol do people just not appreciate good cg trailers anymore? so what if its not ingame footage...its meant to get people excited about the game. Theres plenty of gameplay footage already ... get over it.
PS1 was amazing just because of the amount of coordination and planning that went it some of the base assults. I remember lining up Gals for coordinated drops on a base and tower. MAX crashes on the back door. Locking down the CC and fighing your ass off to hold it. ANT runs with reavers and mosquito's chasing you down, knowing if they blew up your ANT the base would go neutral and most likely be taken over. Some of my best experiences gaming over the past 20+ years were in Planetside. I can't wait for PS2 and with what I have seen so far it shouldn't disappoint.
I really don't care if trailers are in-game footage or story based CGI as long as it gives me a feel for the game.
As for the whole B2P + Sub vs. F2P debate, well, look at it this way. Even if SOE does IP ban or Hardware ban, I doubt that it will stop this F2P game from being hacked to high heaven just like Planetside is.
I love FPS / TPS style games, but I haven't played one that didn't have hacks or cheats for it.
Anyone who has played PS1 knows that there hasn't been a game like it... For a "side project" game, it did succeed, and there is no reason why this remake won't take it home once again... They stuck to the fundamentals that made Planetside what it is. While I do look forward to trying Dust.. in no way do I expect it to come close to PS2.
@Malasorte I was Vanu in PS1.... so I know what I am talking about Mwahahaha!
But seriously, I do hope the NC guy lives... and have him be your Drill Instructor while he is recovering from his wounds.. that is one bad ass soldier. Anyone who can take out a tank with a grenade, and a dropship in the air deserves a permanent position within the game :D
Original Planetside had a very solid fun factor for myself and quite a few friends and family, it looks absolutely like this will do that and take it to the next level.
I do believe they have been pretty adamant about horizontal (or as they call 'sidegrade') itemization being the only option for things not strictly aesthetic. Meaning nothign you buy makes you stronger, it just offers options to rebalance the stats of things you use so you can specialize.
I wouldn't mind if they had a similar business model as Tribes:Ascend to where the same upgrades and weapons can be both earned or bought but having the cosmetics as pay only.
Man does Blur make a killer sequence or what? Those guys are so money that I'm using old out of date street slang.
Very pretty but I think any seasoned gamer knows by now that cinematic movies have nothing to do with gameplay. Don’t get me wrong, I like watching them and they might make me take a look at a game if I had never heard of it before, but a cinematic will have ZERO influence on whether or not I buy a game.
I feel like this trailer was the biggest fail I've ever seen. It is not representative of gameplay at all and even worse, fails to actually highlight the type of experience you might have in the game. Also, it makes it seem like the way to victory is to be a lone-wolf cowboy rather than utilizing teamwork. What an utter fail Sony.
That vid made me be like a child in front of a toycommercial "Oh, I want it, I want , I want it now! Mom, can I have it!? I WANT IT!!!"
Wed Jul 25 2012 9:20PM Reportno ingame footage, in other words this video has nothing to do with the game itself, gives no idea of what the game is going to be like, swell
Wed Jul 25 2012 9:27PM Report:D
Wed Jul 25 2012 9:29PM ReportInb4 the "its a trailer, no gameplay footage despite ignoring several hour length videos of the game in action lame hype train"

Wed Jul 25 2012 11:08PM ReportAlways a hit trailer from Blur
Wed Jul 25 2012 11:19PM ReportPeaked my interest enough to find some actual gameplay footage. Looks pretty impressive and fun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohxc5flxhP0
Wed Jul 25 2012 11:26PM ReportOkay, if the graphics don't look that good in game and I can't take down a ship by jumping on it and shooting the driver then heads will roll.
Wed Jul 25 2012 11:51PM ReportPretty good, though I am a little hazy on the physics of those jet packs... apparently they work on thought control?
Wed Jul 25 2012 11:59PM ReportHow many actually noticed the "Not actual gameplay footage" message at the start of the video ;P?
Thu Jul 26 2012 12:00AM ReportI just remember the incredible DC Universe movies and then actually playing the game...
Thu Jul 26 2012 12:10AM Report@Maggon

Thu Jul 26 2012 2:14AM Reportjust because it's not representative of te final product doesn't mean it's not awesome.
Thu Jul 26 2012 2:20AM Reportit is free to play but will be pay to win that is the sony way.
Thu Jul 26 2012 2:27AM ReportShame t hey decided to go f2p and not sub.. but ill still check it out as the gameplay looks awesome..
Thu Jul 26 2012 2:50AM ReportIf they go B2P to F2P .. I'm in .. but I wouldn't buy the game then add a sub on top of that as well.. I just wouldnt' put that many hours in it to justify that cost..

Make it happen, SOE !!!
Even though the movie is not actual game footage, it's a good representation of Planetside 2 mayhem, lol
There's quite a few Youtube clips available, watch them if you have any doubts...
Thu Jul 26 2012 4:55AM ReportIt reminds me of the SWTOR movie Hope. That was frickin awesome!

Thu Jul 26 2012 10:52AM ReportJust look up beta gameplay on Youtube! It looks a lot like fun. I like the video and WILL be playing the game when it launches.

Sooooo kewl.
Thu Jul 26 2012 2:38PM ReportI wish I liked these kind of games! That looks awesome
Thu Jul 26 2012 2:45PM ReportDust is much better !!

I will 100% buy and play this game.
Thu Jul 26 2012 4:55PM ReportIf the gameplay isnt representative the the footage would be a waste. So Jetpacks are in :)
Thu Jul 26 2012 5:36PM Report1. Cool that we know they can make CGI movies (I honestly wish this stuff was in the theaters).
2. Where was the epic part about going to the cash shop to be able to properly compete in pvp? I want to see THAT part.
Thu Jul 26 2012 10:03PM ReportWhat are you asking about with that "2." comment?
I do believe they have been pretty adamant about horizontal (or as they call 'sidegrade') itemization being the only option for things not strictly aesthetic. Meaning nothign you buy makes you stronger, it just offers options to rebalance the stats of things you use so you can specialize.

Fri Jul 27 2012 12:46AM ReportMe WANT!!!
Fri Jul 27 2012 4:33AM ReportWhy all the hate about it being a CG trailer? Hasn't pretty much every major MMO had one?
I remember people going ga-ga over the World of Warcraft trailer, when they game didnt even look remotely similar.
If you watch the in game footage of PS2 the graphics are amazing.
Tue Jul 31 2012 4:26AM ReportSooooooo...unrealistic.
Tue Jul 31 2012 7:51AM Reportthe jet packs are awesome

They are also the same people who love that "other" mmo that I won't bother mentioning...
