Posted by Roogle under General, Planetside, games, technology on 02 Oct 2009

A Few days ago i recieved a mail from SOE (Sony Online Entertainment).
in the mail they where asking for planetside players to fillout a survey to help with the new planetside.

Help Us Design the Next PlanetSide Game

That’s right, you heard what we said! We plan to expand the PlanetSide universe with another game and we need your help with the design. After all, who knows the game better than you, our customers, the people who actually play it! Don’t worry about the original PlanetSide, it isn’t going anywhere.

We want to hear your opinion and to do so we have put together a short survey. The information you provide will play a critical role into helping guide the development and direction of the next hit Massively Multiplayer Online First Person Shooter. As a loyal player and experienced shooter fan, we value your input and look forward to hearing what you have to say.


This Comes as some great news to current and old planetside players.
The mayority of the players where wondering if sony would let planetside just die and it seems that question has been answered.
It also seems that Planetside2.com got registered by SOE so its realy happening.

I personaly have a long history with Natural Selection. to summerize it

Member of second clan ever formed for Natural selection (EGC: endgame clan)
this clan sadly kicked the bucked quite soon after release becouse of time constrains so i continued

with my other thing i was doing for the natural selection community i already was a IRC veteran.
and trough IRC I discovered NSRadio.  after djing several times i eventualy made it on to a management position.

Soon after that combat came out and the classic became to compatitive for me so it was time for me to move on to start doing Rl and eve online…. to bad eve took up my RL.

So now its understandable that im extremely happy with this news about Natural selection 2.

Left 4 Dead Critic’s Choice Edition, DLC and SDK Details Revealed

February 5, 2009, 10:47 am – Alden Kroll – Press Release

Valve’s Zombie Thriller Expanding In 2009

February 5, 2008 — Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Half-Life, Portal, Team Fortress, and Counter-Strike) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced a series of content and development releases for its latest title, 2008’s best-selling new game property for the PC and Xbox 360, Left 4 Dead (L4D).

The first L4D DLC — dubbed the L4D Survival Pack — is due for release this spring and introduces a new multiplayer game mode entitled, Survival, plus two complete campaigns for Versus Mode . A Critic’s Choice Edition of the game will be heading to retail stores this spring, and will include access to all the content introduced in the L4D: Survival Pack.

In addition, for PC gamers and aspiring developers, the first Left 4 Dead release for the Source Software Development Kit (Source SDK) will allow the creation of custom Left 4 Dead campaigns that will be discoverable via L4D’s matchmaking system. The SDK update is also due for release this spring, and is free of charge to all owners of L4D on the PC.

“Since Half-Life launched in 1998, Valve has made continuous efforts to expand the offering of its products beyond what’s included on the day of launch,” said Gabe Newell, co-founder and president of Valve. “With Half-Life and Counter-Strike, and more recently Team Fortress 2, we’ve learned that we’re no longer making stand-alone games but creating entertainment services. With Left 4 Dead we’re extending that tradition by creating additional gameplay and releasing our internal tools to aspiring developers so they may also create and distribute new Left 4 Dead experiences.”

Left 4 Dead is a survival action game from Valve that blends the social entertainment experience of multiplayer games such as Counter-Strike and Team Fortress with the dramatic, narrative experience made popular in single player action game classics such as the Half-Life series of games. Released in November of 2008, L4D has earned over 25 industry awards from outlets around the world.
