Looks like they're going for a less colorful, more "realistic" graphics scheme.  Which should be fine as long as the environments themselves aren't all grey/brown.

I'm guessing this means no broadcast gates, since at least before them, galaxies were extremely important

SMEDLEY?


(05-04-2010, 10:14 PM)Caffeine link Wrote: [ -> ]John Smedley was the lead developer and creator of Everquest and later president of SOE. After the success that was everquest this guy pretty much ruled the MMO market. Planetside was not his brainchild but it was a product of his company.

I do not remember who the original developers for PS were, I'm pretty sure these guys were subs about half way through development. See Smedley kept pulling competent devs and coders off of planetside to work on other projects, namely Everquest 2, and who is going to question the creator of the ever powerful  #1 top MMO (at least until WoW ate it for lunch).

Now amidst all this resource shuffling, he pulled critical resources off an MMO that was just launched. And while I can't find the original thread where it was quoted, the rumor that leaked into the PS community was that during a meeting someone mentioned the resource siphoning and questioned him directly, to which he responded "Planetside, whats that?".

This was the first instance that the community got word of but it would not be the last, at SOEs yearly conventions, even when PS still had ~25,000 - 35,000 subs it was left out entirely, no panels, no demos, no Q&A sessions, not even a press announcement. And it wasn't until years later that it even got mention at their yearly con, a bit too late at that point.

Now where did these resources go you might ask? They did go to develop great games like The Matrix Online, Starship Troopers battlespace, Everquest 2, Pirates of the Burning Sea, Vanguard, or a game entirely for children.

Meanwhile PS has managed to live on, and while not all of the aforementioned MMOs have died, Smedley has done just about everything in his power to set it up for failure.

Word I got from the pipe is that PS Next would have had an announcement earlier had he not stuck his fingers in the pie and sent them back to "retool things", which the dev team was not happy about.
