Game Update 4 is incoming! There will be updates to the Flash, such as cloaking for infiltrators and an additional seat to bring a friend along who can fire their gun. The VR area is also coming, so you’ll be able to practice tactics, shooting, driving and flying all resource free. The empire specific rocket launchers will be coming the week after GU04 goes live, and there are some other hotfixes in this major update. Click here for the full rundown. Matt Higby did an interview with MMORPG.com talking about the Player Site, Roadmap, and the Mobile App. Check it out here. We also have a look at a new hex system, a more in depth look at the new TR helmet, and a new NC helmet.
The Planetside 2 has decided to start filming epic battles, so for this Battle Report, we look at their first episode of the War Correspondent.
We have a major fan art update of pure awesomeness from Lunaleska! You can keep up with her art and send your praises over at Planetside Universe.
The Eternal Solider is a short story by Sonny, and you can read an excerpt below:
THE ETERNAL SOLDIER
The first time you die, your body fights back. You clasp onto life like gripping a rope as the sea envelopes you; you scream with rage, your limbs thrash like a caged Kraken, your lungs roar with deep spasms, your breath labours until the last second, until finally, you shudder into darkness. The second time you die, you feel nothing. Your body accepts the turning as if fading to sleep. You silently embrace the blessed solitude in amongst the chaos of total war.
I have died nearly 10,000 times. I have killed countless thousands more. Most of those I knew have long gone. I have no family, no home to go to. I am nothing more than a shell, an empty vessel through which the hammer of the Terran Republic may smash their enemies and return peace to Auraxis. I am one of the last originals. I am the 100-year soldier.
Read the rest on Planetside Universe.
We have a Freedom Over Oppression from AcemanXI.
