Before I say anything, I would just have to say that I can't disclose any information about the game via images, videos, or extended content with the agreement that I have agreed too playing the closed beta that planetside vets are now able to log into.
That being said, I would just like to give you an image of what just happened about an hour ago in the game. And give you an idea on what the games like.
We all spawn at the same base. We wait until all of our comrades are together and get all of the people divided by certifications. I am only certified in the Infiltration Suit, (which has no armor value at all but provides me with cloaking.) Expert Hacking with Electronics and Data Corruption, and that's about it. My job is solely focused on hacking into terminals, doors, coding viruses into their turrets making them attack themselves, ect. ect. I sabotage all of the electronics once in a base. I don't get a lot of kills, but I rack up points via stealth and cleverness. We typically divide everyone by vehicle certifications and armor certifications. Once we have everyone divided up, we start the planning inside the comfort of our protected base. We shall call this HQ1.
Once we are all organised and ready, depending on how many people we have usually decides what the plan will be. If we have 10-20 players waiting, we typically roll with a few magriders, some MAX's, and 1 transportation. 25-40 players and we will do a couple of galaxy drops. In this particular case, we had enough for 2 galaxy's and 2 liberators. So we gathered our soldiers, had them all suit up, and we covered 4 certified players go to the local Nanite Systems tower to spawn 2 liberators and 2 galaxy's, and flew them back to HQ1. We had 24 total in the galaxy's, and 4 total in the liberators. Counted to 15 and took off to the nearest base that we were attacking with the help of hundreds of other fellow comrades of the Vanu Colors.
We picked up 3 or 4 scythe certified comrades protect us while we started to make our way around the canyons to attack the base from behind. One of the commanding officers thought it was a good idea to attack with the sun behind us, so that's exactly what we did, and it worked. Our enemies were blinded.
The two liberators started to carpet bomb each sides of the base periodically with scythes protecting them from air attacks. The Zerg on the ground also provided cover fire and misdirection. Ultimately helping us not get shot down. While all of this was happening, Me and 23 others were behind the mountains waiting for our order to infiltrate inside of our two galaxys. After 4 or 5 runs carpet bombing the base, coming back for repairs, and carpet bombing again, and again, we finally got the order from a commanding officer on the ground with the zerg telling us that there are very few NC still alive inside of the base that he can see. Phase II starts now.
The two galaxy's in the distance, one in which I am riding on, carefully fly over the base and we all drop down. All 24 of us. We have about 4 infiltrators, and the rest are medium/heavy armored killing machines. Once we hit the ground, all our infiltrators cloaked and the others provided cover, 4 squads of 6 people. One squad per Infiltrator. I went around the base disabling all of the turrets and implemented the virus that made the turrets turn on the New Conglomerate scum. Another did the same, but on the other side of the base, almost a quarter of a mile away. The other two infiltrators with provided cover tried to maintain a constant progression on getting inside of the base to the control towers that need to be hacked and overrun. this is when the two squads split off and took over all of the control points.
In a matter of minutes, the drop was successful, and all of the command points were over run. The zerg had finally made its way inside of the base along with us already in there. The base is now hacked and we must wait 10 minutes for the process to finalize and for us to own the base. As we wait, the commander has ordered us to take control of all the turrets, and get every heavy assault and Max on the outskirts of the base and alert us / protect us from any sort or retaliation from the NC. With only 6 minutes left for the hacking to be complete, this could very easily happen. So we grabbed all of the turrets, and waited.
5 minutes left...

3 minutes left...
Then all of the sudden, in the Outfit Chat
[Azure Twilight]VS_Domino 08:34 : THEY ARE COMING, EAST SIDE, BETWEEN THE CLIFFS!
We are all ordered to go to the east side of the base and post up. With my heart shaking I could do nothing but sit there and watch, for I'm only certified to hack, I'm a hacker... I can only sit there and watch the time go until the base is ours..
My comrades are dying, one by one. left and right the vehicles are blowing up, turrets are being gunned down... a galaxy flys over and they drop down..
1 minute left...
As I sit there, cloaked, defenseless and alone, I do everything I can to make sure they don't stop the terminal from finalizing the hack to make this base ours. Their infiltrator comes in and they block all the doors to the command center room. but I'm still in here cloaked.
30 seconds left...
I notice that one of the guards has a hacking tool, So I have to plan this perfectly. The infiltrator starts to reverse the hacking process. I pulled out my knife, ran up to him, and I killed him.
10 seconds left...
The guards at the doors immediatly turned around and without hesitation and in seconds.. I'm dead..
5.. 4.. 3.. 2.. 1...
That being said, I would just like to give you an image of what just happened about an hour ago in the game. And give you an idea on what the games like.
Part I: Collaboration

Part II: The Setup

Part III: Execution

Part IV: Full Force
The two galaxy's in the distance, one in which I am riding on, carefully fly over the base and we all drop down. All 24 of us.
