    I'm loving the idea of resource areas to fight over.. and a skill system similar to EVE alongside the whole idea of Battle ranks..

    They seem to be taking a few pointers from EVE which is nice

    Yes, this grows intriguing as more info comes out. I am foremost happy they are modernizing the game with what appears to be depth-creating points from some of the better games out there.

    I also like the fact they made a new engine, which worked great for BFBC2.

    Really digging the idea of certing in weapons and vehicles and having tons of skills to customize everything from each weapon you have to vehicles, etc.

    That and outfits seem to be able to tailor themselves to allow their members to develop quicker in particular areas.. Incentive to become good at a particular style of combat and also to join up with an outfit in the first place.. A decent one at that..

    I'm looking forward to the class system. I think it'll be a plus to the game. Unlike the old PS where anyone could be a one man army once they got to higher BR's, a class system should make them have to lean on other squaddies for certain aspects of a fight. The only downside to class system is if you're playing solo but I'm sure if you're in a fight, others around will be available to help out hopefully.

    Resources acquired by territory is interesting. I'm worried though about what will happen if a faction get's pushed out completely (sanc'd), do the basics allow enough firepower to overcome a faction that has "everything".

    Yea there will be outfit skill trees also so outfits can tailor their entire outfit to specific tasks if they want. If they anted to be a badass air cav team they could skill their outfit right around that.

    I've got TONS of tidbits I just couldn't document on paper fast enough so if you have any questions ask away :lol:

    "Also the engine is capable of things volumetric clouds where vehicles could fly in and hide in the clouds"

    Well, that just about changes everything regarding tower and base drops in a galaxy, no more seeing you coming miles away.... Brave new world..

    This is what is going to separate PS2 from any other game out there. I think this is a stroke of genius. What we had set up before with the Air Cav and SOAR we can now really advertise and put out there.

    I wonder if PS2 will have support for divisions within an outfit? Meaning that Mani creates separate divisions within the game itself like we have here. One division/cert tree devoted to the air cavalry, one division concentrating on armor, one with support in mind, etc.
