*** Official Planetside 2 Thread ***

Here you go, a very lame setup so far as it's my first ever attempt with this:



(and yes... I put black tape on the left hand monitor).
 
Just looking at some earlier posts, I seriously miss the stuff like flamethrower and max grenade launchers. I am guessing mass spam of them was really the issue (with performance)
 
Popped on here to see if it was ok, suddenly it's two hours later :) For all its flaws, it's still light years beyond any lobby shooter out there.
 
I very much enjoy this game. I must admit I miss playing with my outfit though, but I found the only times I can really play are at night, and then I can't really talk due to my child being asleep.
 
I just wish they'd add a cloaker / sniper-free map.

There's too many good infantry fights ruined by invisible people 100m+ away.
 
There are issues with the game and there always will be. The engine/tech/servers cannot cope with the game experience they are trying to provide.

Are there any alternatives. NO.
Its the only combined arms game that operates on such a massive scale (when it works).

Should you play it?

If you haven't tried it and it does appeal then yes. Sooner rather than later. The game needs population in order to work. It will only get smaller from now on. There is likely to be an influx of new and returning players over the holiday period, but overall the month after month trend is reduced pops.

Dont play it to be a solo rambo racking up the kills and aiming for a high K/D. Join a squad/outfit. Set yourselves goals/objectives for your play session and have fun trying to achieve them.
 
Its worth trying since its free but I'd suggest watching a few tutorial vids first to grasp what its about as there's quite a lot to take in for a new player.

Imho PS2 on its day, in a good fight, does 'battlefield' better than any other large scale fps. Including BF4.

Unfortunately, the good fight can be hard to find at times.
 
good old times

I was originally in Kuntras Killas, then Tempest and finally settled in MoX (Werner TR). We did (and still do when we have a reunion :D) spec ops stuff mostly (MoX pretty much invented the gen bust and hold), as well as cont opening / drawing enemies from locked conts.

PS is special because it is one of the few FPS where good tactics and squad play really do outclass individual talent every-time. Due to our play-style MoX don't have all that many CR5's (altho have had some of the best), but can hold a gen with 15 BR10's just as well as 15 random BR25/CR5's.

Hey m8, Luke(Sky) here, one of your teammates in Outfit Tempest, just came across your name by accident and am excited i finally found someone of the ol' crew again. I hope this message finds you well.
You have any idea what the other core members like Javesh, Tunguskax , Apone and Coba went playing afterwards ?
Sure brings back a lot of good memories :):)
Cheers to you and all people here from old Werner o/

Luke.
 
**** MASSIVE **** patch coming today - including them much awaited CONSTRUCTION element of the game.

Now is the chance for those looking to play or come back to the game to join us!
 
Wow :o I seriously thought Daybreak had put this into maintenance mode, but that's one hell of a patch.

I'll have to learn to play all over again mind you :(
