Tbh it feels like a bland ripoff, at least in beta. It's lacking a certain something. Amat victoria curam. |

Like any form of real challenge?
Face it, its spawn, spray and pray 90% of the time.
Its COD style gameplay with BF2 style maps with futuristic, unbalanced weapons. Not to mention the game runs like **** on my rig, despite it having a i5 2500 and a GTX560 with 16gb of ram. Everytime you dont like my comments/posts the terrorists win and your a disgrace to your country. |

Ridiculous, then they will patch in something that will totally overpower and break the existing; endless cycles of this. No more for me, didn't even bother with beta. I'll stick to the BF series, thx, been on it since launch day of BF1942. BF2142 being my fav so far, just dig that Voss L-AR jumping out of a burning mech |

I'll give it a shot, but I'm not exactly dying to play. As far as fps games go, I'm pretty much covered with CS:GO, Tribes, and Blacklight. PS2 just doesn't look like something that I'd put any serious time into it. I like the concept, but I like a bit more structure, for lack of a better word, in my fps games and this just looks like it'll be all over the place. |

To be fair, personally the only FPS that has ever been worth a **** in the past decade is BF2.
Sure the new one is decent, COD can be fun when played in LAN centers for tournaments but really, BF2 had a much better community, graphics that didnt break the bank even at the time and pretty damn impressive game play for its time with the map size and ability to fly, drive and swim.
Maybe I am just bitter but I have not played a decent multiplayer FPS that can touch it since, single player FPS is a different story though since I loved Metro 2033. Everytime you dont like my comments/posts the terrorists win and your a disgrace to your country. |

Odd that i find out about PS2 on another games forums. I played the original for a year or so right up until they put advertising into he game and still charged a sub. Nothing like seeing coke banners on an alien planet. The trailer and screens look like a remake of the original with slightly better graphics. If it makes it to the first xpac who wants to bet itll be cave battles or mech warriors? |

I'm playing it a bit, enjoyed the beta enough to download a F2P shooter.
I'm NC on US West - Connery
Only put in about 2 hours, but had quite a bit of fun with a bunch of Vanu who decided standing still with an infiltrator in the area was a good idea. |

PS2 experience so far:
Logged in, made character, started play. No tutorial. No familiarization at all. Reminded me of eve. Stood around in the initial start structure, looking for information, tutorial agents, or something along those lines. Kept getting killed and re-spawning in the spawn building. Could not find any in-game newb section, place to learn/study.
Character deaths continued. Occasionally on-site medics would offer "revives" while i looked around for information.
Eventually figured out the keybinds by intuitively getting into settings & the keybinds panel. Read/studied the keybinds while getting semi-regularly killed at the spawn point.
With some basic keyboard understandings, left the initial start building & made a few attempts at aggressive play.
Regular character death & re-spawning continued.
There doesn't seem to be a setting to turn off the head-bob while you walk/move/run. This leads to 3D nausia
Following one re-spawn and exploration of the start building, - discovered the redeploy option at console in a wall computer.
Redeployed to a region that wasn't 95% overrun with opfor.
Unsurprisingly, the region was very quiet. You could walk for ages & find no one. Bases didn't seem to have any training areas. The fronts with enemies seemed to have activity, yet again, the sides were very lopsided & there did not seem to be any sign of player opfor. I thought i saw a few but later realized they were blue. I'm probably responsible for some inadvertent TK / or blue on blue as FoF identification didn't seem all that intuitively obvious.
Graphics & system performance isn't all that inspiring. I'm reminded of eve's CQ.
From a positive standpoint, it does seem rather engaging in terms of overall experience. Size of maps is huge, terrain seems quite intuitive to navigate, particularly when mountain climbing by foot. While incredibly depressing to be dropped into an overwhelming hotzone only to be killed a moment or two later, it is amusing the first few times.
However stumbling away from the computer to worship the porcelain alter & losing my dinner, gets a bit much after mmmmm, 30 minutes? 60 minutes? Hard to say, but something along those lines.
At this point, being a bit of a masochist i'll keep at it but it's not looking like a keeper. |

Installed yesterday direct from site. Explicitly did not use Steam as why would you if not needed ? 10GB download. Working fine on my leet rig on max settings As I'm used to BF3 it all looks a little fugly but on the other hand it is like BF2142 enhanced edition. No clue what I'm doing but killed some guys anyway. Levels are very nice, character models are all a bit icky. For a free game it's pretty amazing.

I played a bit today. It does feel like you're on a giant battlefield, but I have no clue what i'm supposed to do, what i'm fighting for, or what the point of it all is. I'm shooting people, that's basically it. Not a bad game considering it's free though. |

The first Planetside was made by a former Starseige: Tribes developer and the game itself was made on a modified version of the Darkstar engine which is what Tribes 1 used.
Planetside, essentially, is a persistent world with all of the assets and goodies of Tribes without skiing physics. There's no "win" to Planetside though. If there was, then that would seal the fate of a persistent world MMO :) |

Played it for a couple hours last night and found the bottlenecks to be a bit much, but overall it's not bad.
Like others have mentioned, it could really use a tutorial or even just dialogue pop-ups explaining things. I spent most of the first hour completely lost. Even when i used the map to figure out what general direction to go, there's all these tricks and secret routes you must use to end up where the main fight is happening.

Played some yesterday with a bunch of goons. Vs Scythe ftw. This game is a ton of fun, although Miller EU had some lag problems since last patch. ______

There's a tutorial video collection you can watch from the launchers, right below the news items there's a "New Recruit" or something like that link, it will bring up links to tutorial videos and stuff. I just jumped right in and was lost for an hour too lol, but the tutorial vids help.
My mic doesn't seem to work with their voice chat for some reason though :( http://youtu.be/yytbDZrw1jc |

The only thing that I cannot stand in that game is the constant dying; I, like many other people, when I first started playing died almost immediately after being ejected from that pod. I was in the menus looking to change some controls when I was killed instantly - not a nice start. Other than that, the only negative thing I have to say about the game is that it really takes a beast of a computer to get good performance out of it. I have everything on lowest with a 50% render quality and only now can I play semi-comfortably at 30-60 fps depending on how many people there are around me.
