    guys I was on YouTube, when I saw this

    I don't have PA yet, so I decide to make a challenge.
    make a video w/ the Title:
    - Can your RTS do This!
    do this only for Fun!(or don't do this)
    also you need to show:
    MASSIVE BATTLES W/ A LOT OF UNIT DYING AND BEING REPLACED BY FRESH ONES, NUKES AND ANTI-NUKES, and of course the title of the game.
    *New Rule: show EXP units crushing the enemy army, in ChronoCam!

    May need to wait until Orbital is a little more flushed out and the graphics have been improved a little. Orbital is where lots of the uniqueness of PA comes from. Also wouldn't help to have larger planets.

    However.

    I 100% support a video like this.

    An endless tide of units

    Crashing like a wave

    Against a very strong base defense.

    Eventually overwhelms.

    See thousands of units pour in through the canyon network.

    Scale and Flowfield pathfinding at its best.

    Watch ZaphodX's youtube streams of Beta gameplay.
    Google ZaphodX , it should be the top link.
    lots of his cast's have epic battles in them, especially when elite gamers are playing.

    ---Edited---
    Link to ZaphodX's youtube cast's (to save you looking)

    I do want to make one. Just want to wait a little longer.

    I imagine the next major Orbital update will have enough to make a video like this.

    I'm gonna start storyboarding this video and will keep an eye on this thread for idea.

    I will make it!

    Well I would put money on this, but my money is going to this game:
    http://store.steampowered.com/app/233250/?snr=1_4_4__100
    and FA.

    My bad , i thought you were looking for some good gameplay action, ZaphodX was the first thing to pop into my mind.. lol
    Cutting and piecing some of his cast together could make a killer preview for the game.

    don't worrie, I think that ZaphodX should help this!
    so if you read this ZaphodX, make a video about it.

    I was going to say the exact same. if we wait a tad then those videos will send that message across better tenfolds. there's that HDR stuff to come, there's less crashes (currently big games almost always crash (yes, server-side)) and of course there's the orbital stuff.

    especially planet-smashing which currently does not have it's final look at all.

    how can we advertise planet smashing in it's current state? The resulting video may even turn people off rather than inspire :D

    To your question...Can your PLANETSIDE 2 do this?
    And I'd rather give you to know, the true real feeling on the battlefield,instead a Trailer.
    Not a production, that never translates lively and shows, the real potential of the product.

    I want to use this chance to plug some more of SPAZ's videos, specifically the ones he did for BlackOps, he did some great stuff even if some of the units and such are out of date by now;

    1/5 The Cybran Nation


    2/5 The Seraphim


    3/5 United Earth Federation


    4/5 Aeon Illuminate


    5/5 War Even Ends

    The idea is to make a sensationalist Fan-Made Trailer, to the people think some like:
    - AHHHHHHHHHHH, THIS IS EPIC! I gonna throw my SC2 in the trash(nothing against SC2, just because "everyone" play it).

    Well would be good, but I was thinking to put only PA, but you can use his style.

    That was a pretty epic video.

    Yeah. We need to get out a bunch of PA videos like that.

    PA just needs to progress a little further.
