I played Planetside from beta and loved it,but after hitting CR5, BR18 I started to get bored and was dissapointed with the lack of new features and plentiful bugs.As a result I stopped playing about 6 months ago,but have recently been feeling the call and am considering returning to PS.

Basically I would just like to know peoples opinions on wether the game has improved in the last 6 months and if you reccomend coming back or is is still rife with bugs(lol,surely they must have fixed the lovely door bug by now),unbalanced and monotonous?
After being recently dissapointed by the claustrophonbic Battlefield Vietnam it has got me thinking how much I used to enjoy the massive battles on PS,it was definately in a league of its own.I was also wondering if my old character would still be available if I started subscribing again with all my old details,as starting from the beginning will be a bit of a nightmare,although I suppose a change of empire would probably be a good idea anyway.
Cheers.

Try it yourself. There's a 10 day trial coming out soon for inactive accounts. Today/Tomorrow I think.

Yes, most all the bugs are gone. The door bug and the craptacular vehicle quene is gone too. Those were the days.

hmmm,that 10 day trial could be just what the doctor ordered;I cant find any official announcement on it though :confused:

After having a rummage through old news there doesnt seem to have been much new content added at all but hopefully enough tweaks and fixes to make the game run as it should.Glad to see the inf finally got some much needed attention,hopefully hes not the gimp of the game anymore.

Quite looking forward to digging out my old boomers now :scared:

WTF? Invisible galaxy?

BTW if you have a bad/older system it will still run crappy(in FPS terms)

My galaxy wasn't very invisible when it got gang raped by 33 AA maxes...

Its probably graphics that caused your Galaxy to be invisible.

The 10 day war hasn't started yet. Probably will when the devs get back from vacation. Well if then even? It's more than 2 weeks overdue.

It doesn't have much to do with the PS devs :P~

In a way it might. I've seen speculation that they need to clean up the latest patch mess before they do the 10 war. If people come back to evaluate the game in current state they may not stay.
