NVIDIA PhysX technology is considered the world’s most comprehensive physics solution for designing real-time, real-world effects into interactive entertainment titles."
Planetside 2’s future is uncertain as the IP was sold for a relatively low sum to a company with no history.
The last Live Letter is done and we were all surprised at the announcement of a delay to the release of FFXIV's Endwalker expansion, we got some more details about the MMORPG's new PvP Crystal Conflict mode, and some system details. Then we talk about PlanetSide 2's new continent and LOTRO's new expansion before wrapping up with some good changes for Ubisoft and Blizzard... but are they enough? All that and more on this week's Always Online!
PlanetSide 2 is going to be getting its next major expansion this December. This new addition, titled “Expedition: Oshur” will be the first addition in almost seven years to bring an entirely new continent to the game.
Planetside 2 along with Everquest 3 will be running on the new Forgelight MMO engine which looks to take a full advantage of modern PC's.
Not good. Using an Nvidia's proprietary technology will exclude ATI users, and trust me there's a lot of people with ATI cards.
Absolute fail, this game is destined to have its servers merged in 6 months after release, and then within 12 months shut down. Reason being is they won't have enough players playing it when ATI users just plain simply will not be able to.
Try again SOE.
