The game concept is wicked fucking awesome. The presentations so far have made it seem a bit dull, though. I imagine the beta will be quite rough, given how much they are trying to achieve with the game.

didn't get in. I'm pretty upset considering this was the one chance I had to play this game.

See, the reason these betas fail is because the same tards are always invited. What the hell are you supposed to learn about your game from someone who's championed Resistance as a genre-defining, damned near perfect game?

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #6 on:** August 18, 2009, 04:09:52 AM »

I got in. I'll DL it when I get home on Wednesday morning.

I also hated Resistance 2, and detest most FPS. In the application process, I actually said something like "You should let me in the beta because I'm not your average FPS loving gamer. I'm the type of person you need to appeal to if you want to succeed."

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #7 on:** August 19, 2009, 04:05:37 PM »

Wow, what an incredibly awesome and in-depth character creation system! Five different faces and voices to choose from! GOTY!!

Too bad I can't actually get into a game because it fails to find the network every damn time.

Mega Awful Game

Give me Planetside 2, fuckers.

Unless PlanetSide 1 sees a massive rush of new players; that won't be happening.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #9 on:** August 19, 2009, 04:31:37 PM »

So now I'm sitting in a queue waiting to play... omg so awesome.

Downloaded, but didn't play yet. Been busy every night so far this week.

Wollan · « **Reply #11 on:** August 19, 2009, 06:38:37 PM »

Addictive game. Interface is very complex and the game is similarly deep.

The most intriguing part is knowing that nothing is scripted. Every little gun shot or explosion is done by human players (it got that excellent sound system Halo 3 uses so far-off fights sound different with low pop-pop-pops and whatnot, with that coming from dozens of separate fights..). It feels grand.

Where the game suffers is in presentation. Pre-game Menus look bland, framerate is not stable and it's not a super detailed game. Kinda feels like Planetside did back in the day (biiig scope, rough edges).

Good stuff.

Are there any games with the full 256 players yet?

Wollan · « **Reply #17 on:** August 19, 2009, 06:56:39 PM »

The servers are up at Zippers leisure and what specific game modes as well.

I have only played 128 matches but since those were connected to GamesCom (and EU testers) they were full or close to it. I haven't had lag problems so far (besides one, I missed with a rocket I should have hit with once).

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #18 on:** August 19, 2009, 06:57:26 PM »

Nope. Only two of three factions are available, and they can only have 64 people in them at a time, so the current max is 128. I still haven't been able to play yet. I sat for twenty minutes in a queue, and now the servers are down for the rest of the day.

The game is boring. Played it at a friend's house.

I thought Killzone 2 was boring also, so take that as you wish.

Looks better than expected. The game seems to be taking a lot of cues from COD and BF, doesn't sound like a bad thing.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #22 on:** August 20, 2009, 01:26:00 AM »

Still can't play this damn thing. I've never heard of a beta that's only open during certain hours each day (most of the time it's open when Gamescom is going on).

Awesome.

Was getting raped by the bastards in the big turrets, so I started spawn killing to get revenge and laughs.
