Huxley; MMOFPS

So, I've heard about this game. It's called Huxley.
Supposedly this is an MMOFPS, something of a rarity on the scene. I loved Planetside back in the day, even though it was riddled with bugs, so this game obviously is of interest to me and other fellow FPSers.
I haven't played it though, so I'm wondering if someone out there is in the beta, or have played it in any other way shape or form?
The screenshots of the game makes it look aesthetically great for an mmo. It looks like Unreal Tournaments cousin, and supposedly also plays a lot like UT game series.
So can someone tell me if this game is good? I need details

And any game that relies on bullshots without showing you the real deal has got some things to hide.
well the videos seem to confirm that it wont look like shit anyway. (I can't really tell because the videos are so low quality) I also just realized that this thing is korean, and I haven't had a good track record with korean mmo's
Here's a terribly low quality video of the game. It also has a korean man singing something in the background for some reason.

Here's one of a guy running around aimlessly with some kind of rocket launcher, now to american music instead

Basically, so far it looks like a standard multiplayer FPS game. I can't really say that it looks like an MMO though. They haven't added vehicles yet, and I've yet to see a big epic fight like the ones you could get in Planetside.
And those are in-game engine shots without the HUD up.
It is being developed for the PC and 360. Last I heard PC players could choose between two warring races while 360 players could be some hybrid race that kind of works like a rogue nation. Classic 1v1v1 warfare. In the article I read the developers said they were going to have large battles like Planet Side but wanted to also have smaller PvP battles so you didn't always feel like cannon fodder. I think they said it was being developed with a western mindset, so no crazy Korean grinding. It sounded interesting but this was probably a year ago so who knows what has changed.
Yeah, I heard the same thing about it being developed with the West's tastes in mind. And also yeah, it was a long time ago that they last did heavy press for the game; since then I think they've been quite silent. Which I hope is not a bad sign, because I would love a Planetside that gets the first-person shooting part of the MMOFPS equation right.
> turn on light
Good start to the day. Pity it's going to be the worst one of your life. The light is now on.
Edit: But I'm jaded. Secretly, I still hope it comes out and is awesome.
I'd really like it to be an actual game that is released, because it looks like it could be a lot of fun, but I'm not that optimistic.
