We have another new preview for you guys today, this time coming from Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com/). Here's what they had to say:

While I moved up the ladder slowly -- pretty much in-time with an actual ladder instead of a Prince of Persia-style videogame ladder -- and would have been an easy target on the climb, I made it to the top to survey the area. My character class let me take sniper shots from the great distance, but I also called in air strikes on enemy tanks. That was fun for a while, but I decided to exit with style, base-jumping off the tower.

After putting my virtual life in the hands of a developer who said this would work, I swung over the safety-rail and hit the jump key mid-air to open my parachute. I tumbled through the sky -- did my legs get hung up on the railing? -- but eventually evened out in the last seconds before gliding to the ground. I couldn't shoot from the 'chute, and that option isn't planned, but I thought that'd make a fun addition.
