The 6months exp bonus along with the weapon unlocks sound kinda nice.

Awesome, a new update. 1.2 gb, jesus.

When is IGN sending out keys?

Sometime today, be patient

[QUOTE=krail9;37575781]looks like old as fuck concept art[/QUOTE] I preferred the old colour pallet for the armours.

I thought the servers were supposed to be online by now?

They're sort of partially online, there's like 15 people total across all server somehow

I probably would've done the Alpha squad stuff If I weren't already putting all my money into Planetary Annihilation

Servers are available now, time for everybody to pour in

[QUOTE=jonoPorter;37575831]What?[/QUOTE] EU players will get their storeside and account system hosted by ProSiebenSat.1 Stupid I know.

We're special

** You will receive the rest of the items on the launch of Planetside 2 , on December 31, 2012

There are a few more certs available. Like the infantry armour and shield ones. Sadly they don't alter your appearance as I thought they would.

[QUOTE=NoDachi;37575882]EU players will get their storeside and account system hosted by ProSiebenSat.1 Stupid I know.[/QUOTE] What even is that? I've never heard of it.

[QUOTE=Mellowbloom;37575925]What even is that? I've never heard of it.[/QUOTE] Some crappy german TV channel, which also has a website for games.

Miniguns are in the store, but are 'unavailable' :C

[QUOTE=jonoPorter;37575932]Some crappy german TV channel, which also has a website for games.[/QUOTE] Wow. They couldn't have picked like, something better known could they?

[QUOTE=NoDachi;37575915]There are a few more certs available. Like the infantry armour and shield ones. Sadly they don't alter your appearance as I thought they would.[/QUOTE] Aren't appearance altering things completely separate from the gameplay altering ones? Because even though it doesn't have parts yet that seems to be the way the UI is set up

[QUOTE=SiberysTranq;37576012]Aren't appearance altering things completely separate from the gameplay altering ones? Because even though it doesn't have parts yet that seems to be the way the UI is set up[/QUOTE] Well we have a rather basic version of this, currently for the TR HA as an example. [thumb]http://www.planetside2.com/uploads/dcsclient/000/000/002/443.jpg?v=151.4[/thumb] So I assumed you progressed from the basic to 'advanced' armour somehow, either through battlerank (like planetside 1), certs (as we have certs that 'improve' our armours) or the cash-shop. Like when you improve the vehicle armour through certs, it is represented visually.

Is it me or are the graphics better? Mostly the vehicle interiours And there are more spawn points! [editline]7th September 2012[/editline] And I LOVE the Armor upgrades.

I haven't had time to field test any of the new armours, good I gather?

I kind of want to get in on this. This game looks pretty fun.

Any patch notes?

don't know if it has been known for a long time (or if it is genuinely new with this patch) but it looks like there will be some form of trading in the game if the useroptions.ini file is anything to go by, it has a new line called "TradeRequest=0" in it
