My first was: I payed 3 months of membership and they announced it. WTF would happen if I would pay for a whole year? They would nerf VS?

The new continent is a great example for the still running progress of this game.
The new scenery, new mechanics and some storytelling are perfect to improve a Planetside "franchise".

Is there an estimated time of release?
Cause i would realy like to play on it and my thoughts are that it seems to be a complete new direction of gameplay compared to other continents
I bring in the Snow with my army of Krabs :P

They did not give any estimate, i would be shocked if it came before our 6th anniversary in February next year.

I personally Hope they have something else and big (not as big) for Planetside 2 anniversary. They kinda hinted about but not said what it is. At the end of stream Nick was saying
"we promise there is gonna be some absolutely amazing stuff coming before the end of the year" and then Wrel goofed off and kinda interrupted.
Could be related to the teasers, that ppl speculate it might be Base shields or Black ops

And performance - some speculate that we might get directx 11 support

What exactly dx11 means? what will it add, except i presume better fps and performance.

Hopefully, especially multi threading support, better usage of cpu/gpu and stuff. I have not that much knowlegde about it, but we will see what they will introduce (and what they will break on the way :P )

DX11 would also allow to use more textures(or textures with a higher resolution) because it's capable of handling a bigger gpu memory. The texture libary of PS2 is well optimized with many object sharing the same texture to save some memory use but still it's at the very limit already.

It's also advanced to work with textures and dissplacement maps to make good use with tesselation (but i don't belive they would impliment this for the sake of performance)
