Dust 514 had some kind of starter/boost pack that was exclusive to PS+ members, so I'd expect PS2 to offer something similar.

Haha I was on the Vanu side of that trailer (purple), we were told the footage being shot will be for e3 but had no idea it was for the ps4 reveal lol. Man that was such a fun fight, wonder if it'll be crossplatform?

You know whats most exciting for me about all this? I can now sit on my sofa or anywhere and play these games on my Vita! Think about that for a second!
I almost started to worry that there are too many games i want to play but wont have the time but knowing i can let the wife use the TV and i can play my games is such a blessing.
Looking forward to these though, have heard great things about PS2 and DCU was a very fun game that im sure i will get back into, and properly this time.

That is a straight up dream. Warhawk is still the single best online game I have ever played despite its ageing limbs and gnarled skin.
Planetside doesn't even approach the ballroom that Warhawk dances in.
No reason it shouldn't be I guess.
PLANETSIDE 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE this gif. LOL!! So much.
I really hope so, it would be good for both platforms since they audience would grow exponentially.
Also, I hope EQNext makes the cross to PS4 as well.
They've added Lattice (lines of progression to advance on, rather than the Hex System) to Indar, and will soon have it on Amerish and Esamir. The full "Cont Locking" won't be in till the next Cont (Hossin) gets finished, which might be late summer/September. Amerish and Esamir are still "Throw away" conts at this time, getting capped constantly. It's always about getting Indar capped (or un-capped) right now.
That's the "Meta-game" so far (at least on Mattherson), the bragging of the VS when it caps it, and the excuses by the TR, leading to a TR/NC alliance to double team the VS, and "warpgate them."

Any chance of accounts syncing from PC to PS4?

heh, heard Nobel's and Kytten's voices. Guess the others are the BWC and Devil Dog's leaders.
Well, it sounds like it's going in the right direction. Once sancs are back I'm in.

It'll be up to the publisher I imagine. FWIW, SOE pretty much ignored it this gen. In the 2+ years since DCUO's launch the only Plus benefit it's had is access to the beta. Even just recently when Plus had their Ultimate Editions sale DCUO was the only bundle in the sale without an additional Plus discount.
On the other hand, CCP offered the Dust 514 beta over plus and earlier this year they gave plus members a starter pack for the game which included some in game currency iirc.
PS2 is from Sony, just like DCUO
Ive always thought this looked like an even bigger, more epic, first person view warhawk
Im so excited, that I just started DLing PS2 onto my laptop.
I have a 2.4-3.0ghz i5, with a Radeon 6650 w/ 2 GB VRAM and 4 GB of system RAM, I know nothing of PC gaming, so I hope this runs well enough to get the gist.

For anyone interested in upcoming game changes in PS-2, SOE has a roadmap section, that you can vote for. They try to implement the higher voted choices first.
Think that should run, but probably on the low side.
You've got a similar CPU, but I have a Radeon 7850 (2GB) and 8 GB of RAM (Plus it's installed on an SSD Drive, that's important) and it runs pretty well 80% of the time at higher settings, but I usually will drop it down to medium, to keep up the FPS.

I play Planetside 2 with a controller sometimes and its pretty great. The only thing that sucks is the triggers on the PC version of the game doesn't work right so it's not preferred to use them. If they can somehow pull the controls off right I can see this game being good on PS4.
I personally might not get these games on my PS4 since I know both of them would take up a crap ton of space. If I remember correctly DCUO on my PS3 at the time was 11-13GB.

The first FOUR levels of the "essential" suit upgrades cost only about 200 certs. That is for flak armor or nanoweave. That's fine if you want to go beyond that and maximize it out at level 5 for another 1000 certs but it is absolutely not necessary. For reference, I can get a few hundred certs in as little as a few hours. Not bad at all. Most of the weapons are not 1,000 certs like you say. They're not even based on power curves. Higher certed weapons does not=better. My favorite weapon MSW-R only costs 100 certs for example. Piloting vehicles is not required. Even though they work fine with their standard loadouts with no certs spent you don't have to use them. I only use them as transport. Much prefer infantry fighting.
CCP should somehow either connect PS-2 to their universe, or get this game engine. Haven't played Dust since the beta beginning, but it ran horribly and look horrible. PS-2 "should" have orbital strikes in at some point, which is the only thing I think Dust has over PS-2.
My 4GB ram, GT460, quad core PC was running this towards the higher end of the graphics scale at around 60fps.
Dust 514 is much easier to get into than Planetside 2. They really need to make a PS4 version to compete though.
My hope isn't completely dried up for a PS4 version though http://www.digitalspy.com/gaming/news/a479032/ps4-dust-514-studio-talks-next-gen-support.html

wow, more great news from Sonyland.
It will run fine. I have friends who play it on pc's with specs much worse than the ps4. They are optimizing the game every week as well, by the time ps4 comes out it will be running nicely.

any Youtube links for the trailers? especially the DCUO one? getting an error for it on IGN's player.
Wow Planetside 2 is a super interesting title to be coming to the PS4. I can see why so many people are excited.
That game is super demanding on my PC as it is. I wonder how well they will be able to optimize is for the PS4. If SOE can nail the performance then this really could be a big deal.
There are even settings right now in the PC version that you have to edit the ini file to access because they are so demanding most modern PCs can't handle them. I wonder how the PS4 version will look in comparison.
Also, will they keep the game up to date with the PC version? They have been releasing updates pretty frequently.

I mean this in the least offensive way possible, but I hope they didn't. The console version should be an offshoot of what's on PC, reworked and tailored to the PS4's strengths and weaknesses. When you compromise to please everyone, you run the risk of disappointing everyone.

Cool. I may give Planetside a try.
The vehicles standard loadouts are garbage. Absolute garbage.
There are more to the suit then just the armor upgrades.
And yes there are a few cheaper weapons. Not sure what that changes about what I said.

No way. PS2 is a huge futuristic battlefield. Dust514 is stuffed to the brim with foreign sounding jargon and acronyms, and plays in a match based mode on smaller maps. I had no idea what was going on or where to go, but in PS2 it was easy to figure out.

Hahaha, really? How did that work? Did an SOE employee just join your squad and say that? Very cool.

I'd have to agree with this. Hope to see a true WH sequel one day.
