    i got to say that looks better than vanguard tree's so that is a step in the right direction, however I wonder what that polygon count is going to do to your frame count.  I suspect huge amounts of lag.

    Definitely Planetside 2, nice try

    Can't believe people are eating this up

    " I follow all developers, it was on the Twitter from a developer, I just  can't find it right now"

    come on

    Lol come on people this isn't EQN. Read a little more into it. Nothing from EQN has been released other the z brush model and concept art.

    Shame on me I suppose. I took the bait and I should have known better. That said everything I said in my previous post isn't changed if this isn't really EQN. I also suppose if it is the same engine as some people claim (when saying it's PS2) than there may still be strong similarities.

    True. Was a nice screenshot similar to East Commonlands from EQ1 lol. Just shows you that EQN's hype and interest is legit when the trolls show up. :P

    It's legit in that hype exist but there are two sides to that coin aswell.

    Even though this is Planetside 2 I believe it's not far off from EQ2... so hands off the OP! It was an honest mistake.

    Hmm it was one of the devs on Twitter earlier today (I have an account just to stalk / follow their tweets) but I cant find it now to link.

    Edit: Also it has a 2013 copywrite stamp, I think PS2 would have had 2012 based on the year it was launched.  

     It wouldnt surprise me if aome scenery looks close to PS2 seeing there both using the same Engine and all, I thought of PS2 the moment i opened it up thinking it was similar however the 2013 stam on it could prove to be EQN or possible plans on another PS2 map but i doubt that one. Bit who knows find out in a couple weeks.

    That's fair.

     

    I feel I owe an apology to the OP now. Sorry for implying that you set a trap or laid "bait" as I put it. It seems like someone on redditt did though (if I can believe what other posters have said) and all I meant by me saying I shouldn't have taken the bait is that I should have checked it's validity further.

    I've been looking for a reason to take a Flash out and hit the countryside in PS2. I just may do some investigating and see if I can find these spots. The only thing I've noticed so far is that the trees in the two pics are taller than those I thought are from Amerish.

    Well Im a fan of PS2 graphics..

     

    As long as it doesnt look like saturday morning cartoons,Im fine with it.

  • dinamsdinams Member Posts: 1,362

    First thing I thought was "isnt that planetside 2?"

     

    Funny thing is how the OP basically lied founding this on a dev twitter

    "It has potential"
    -Second most used phrase on existence
    "It sucks"
    -Most used phrase on existence

    They are without a doubt pictures of Amerish. I play PS2 everyday. It does use the same engine though so it's probably not too far off from what we may see for landscape in EQN

    We don't know he knowingly told a mistruth. We owe him the benefit of the doubt. For all we know he was just repeating what someone else told him was true or that he mistook a dev tweet for a false one. Lord knows twitter is full of such things.

     

    PS. He could also produce the tweet and it could turn out to be real and just very similar to PS2, it's a possibility.

    Uh, no.  The thread title was "Pictures of the Commonlands", not "Similarities to PS2".  No mistake here.

    What is wrong with graphic? Planetside 2 has awesome graphic engine. I would be more worried  about huge cartoony  characters with super  huge shoulder pads
  • JIUBHUNNY420JIUBHUNNY420 Member Posts: 131
    Can we please get a mod in here to drop this thread? Already confirmed its not EQN. This is a simple troll and bait thread. Please Report you guys.

    J-Hun Lookin to Creep Yall!

    It's a Planetside 2 in-game screenshot of Amerish/Indar for sure. No doubt about that guys.

    Yeah, thought so.

    Amerish is pretty though.

    It's a possibility that the OP saw a dev respond to a tweet asking whether or not EQN will look similar to those screenshots......

    Yep that was indeed the case, sorry guys, except Waterlily, because he/she is just a troll.

    Thought you had been taken in there, no harm, no foul.

    Looks nice, although I kinda miss the EQ2 desert / sahara style for the Commonlands.

    edit: nevermind :)
