"Luckily the Phoenix base includes lots and lots of round tunnels and curved surfaces that make this skiing technique really useful. Large, flat platforms and catwalks dominate the middle of most of these spherical rooms, allowing players to fight on a variety of levels and even drop down or jet up to avoid conflict."

I guess we don't know much about the Imp or BE interiors, but won't this make the bases a bit unbalanced? being able to take advantage of skiing in the roud-style CotP bases... assuming the other two will be different (imp square, BE spikes?)

From what was seen at the press conference I would have to agree with you on the base styles. Phoenix round, Imperial square, Blood Eagly spikey. It goes along with how their armor types look.

We even got a look at the single player game as Ed led us through the fourth level of the single player campaign. You play an Imperial woman named Julia here who, in her hunt for a murderer, is now making an assault on a Children of the Phoenix

OMG!!! :bananasex

2) Deployables are like vehicles, ie, they exist in the world in a spawn location or something. You walk up and pick them up, and they take up weapon slots. To place a turret, you walk somewhere and hit the "fire" button to place them.



... well that may kinda suck, imagine your base is raped, and suddenly the heavy raping has access to a deployable inv.
