    Rumor has it that a few lucky souls got into the PlanetSide 2 beta when it kicked off this morning. For the rest of us, there's Sony Online Entertainment's latest Command Center video episode. The 12-minute clip features Creative Director Matt Higby and Senior Art Director Tramell Isaac talking about the start of PS2's beta, a recent community event, and a few details on the game's Light Assault class. The gameplay footage starts around the 5:15 mark and features a trio of Terran Republic Light Assault types jetpacking around the map, harassing a New Conglomerate tank, and laying the smack down on some NC ground troops in a quick firefight. View it after the break. [Source: SOE press release]
