Planetside Interview

Action Vault have conducted an Interview with Verant's Lead Designer concerning thier upcoming persistent state shooter, PlanetSide.

Action Vault: For those who are unfamiliar it, can you give us an overview of PlanetSide and describe its background story?

Kevin McCann: PlanetSide is a massively multiplayer first person shooter set within an entirely persistent universe. All players assume the role of soldiers allied with one of three Empires combating each other for territorial control. Players have an arsenal of weapons and vehicles at their disposal, with many of the vehicles being multi-personnel. The overall 'look' of the game is slightly futuristic, but still with plenty of conventional equipment.
