I've signed up, but I fear my PC may not run it.  I've only seen videos of the developer-rig people playing it, so I have no idea how it will run on a casual computer.

I have to say, I'm greatly looking forward to this. With kids, it's hard to justify a monthly cost for a game, when playtime can be so limitied, and I loved the first planetside, so I'm actually quite excited this is FtP.

I am so hyped for this it is silly. I wish I had gotten into Planetside 1 when it was a thing.
I will love to play an infiltrator sneaky bastard with a few friends, going around causing havoc and slipping away unseen giggling like maniacs.

You've been able to sign up for the beta for a while, but they're not taking many people yet.

I'm with you Aptus!  Dwarven Sudden Explosions task force shall be formed!  Infiltrators specializing in long-term cloaking and high explosives, doing nothing more than running into enemy bases, throwing ALL the bombs, and running out.  Griefing, with beards.

Dwarven Sudden Explosions Task Force DSETF tactical handbook, 9th edition (The last 8 were blown up.)

1: Scenario: You need to capture a lightly defended enemy stronghold.
Course of action: Copious amounts of explosives!

2: Scenario: You need to capture a heavily defended enemy stronghold, they have air superiority and you have no support.
Course of action: Sneak in and apply copious amounts of explosives!

3: Scenario: Our home base is under attack and will soon be overrun.
Course of action: Apply copious amounts of explosives at the home base, then sneak into the staging area of the enemy and use copious amounts of explosives!

4: Scenario: You find yourself piloting a galaxy aircraft.
Course of action: Fill the aircraft with copious amounts of explosives, crash it into the nearest enemy and sneak away!

And remember the ground rule: If you think you have applied enough explosives to the target, apply some more!

If anything, I'd think a bureaucratic name would be best.  "Ordinance Delivery and Distribution" sounds like some sort of supply task force that delivers ammo to soldiers, but it's actually a large gun.  The "delivery" is "mach 5 out of the barrel" and "distribution" is "everyone everywhere."

By the looks of the poll we'll be fighting for the Vanu. Either way, I don't see any problems in B12 specializing in causing massive explosive death.

So when beta arrives we will agree on a server, form a Vanu spec ops team caller B12 with tons of explosives and beards and run around causing mayhem Dwarf Fortress style? I agree on this idea down to the very core. :D
