- Planetside Navy, Battle for t3h oceans

- Planetside 2, new 1337 weapons,
Just a dumptruck load of new content, (IE. Weapons, vehicles, not counting boats/spaceships, just tanks, and sh*t)
Just check the whole planetside.com forums, or even here for that matter, you'll see some good, bad, and ugly ideas

Sry if this was a waste of your time, i am just curious, cause a lot of ppl cry for new stuff like this, i want some numbers

<3 always

i want PlanetSide navy only because im going into the Navy. Plus it will keep people on the surface of auraxis.

Wasn't it Donatello?

Anyway, I dunno I'd much rather it wasn't an expansion but free to all, but that's gonna happen I don't think. Erm I'd prefer a Navy, mainly because it won't be just a novelty thing on most continents. Also people have been asking for it for a long long time now.

I could go for planetside starfleet. i want battlecruisers and destroyers in space and stuff. Just my opinion. Like the battlecruisers could be mobile bases and respawn points. Only problem is i dont have 30 bucks to spare again but if i got about 2 weeks notice than i guess i would be able to scrounger up some money. Ive been wanting a space version of planetside for the longest time anyway. But any of these expansions would be great.

Would be awsome if SOE took time to combine both expansions, plus 'Planetside 2' and polish it really good, THEN release it. That's the expansion I want ;)

i just want a second planetside in general also. Like not a totally different game with. same concept and wat not. But different game engine PLEASE USE A BETTER ONE. Better graphics but keep the same factions thats what makes this game fun is having the same factions. Maybe even add a fourth one AND ADVERSTISE MORE!!! Just my opinion. I know most people would love to see a second planetside.

The low-ish graphics are so that as many people can play as possible. The higher the crank the graphics, the less amount of people can play. I mean they're not that bad considering so please take that into account when you say "USE A BETTER ONE" I'm sure the next Planetside (should there be one) would use a better engine as a given anyway, but it probably won't be for a year or two until people's computers can handle it.

Planetside: City in the sky
An expansion that puts hovering bases in the sky and gives us reaver variants and whole new planes, and crazy high altitude narrow walk ways, and new forms of AA to combat the new aerial attackers.

I don't see a naval expansion being very fun. Playing with battleships in BF1942, while interesting, wasn't very fun. The next expansion will probably add some vehicles and stuff, and allow for another way to advance your character.

This will not happen until Planetside becomes unprofitable, or so loaded with expansions that it can't be expanded more (an impossibility due to the lack of factors which can allow for "mudflation", as was seen in EQ).

yeah i know about that im not saying in the near future. Planetside will probably die down by the end of next summer if not sooner. I will still be playing if other people are but we must face the facts most games do not make it past 2 years. Planetside will never get old though. But im thinking more like 2006 or 2007 for a planetside 2. But as long as they keep me interested. If they just keep putting expansions on the current planetside till the end of time i wont complain. Killing TR and VS is the most satisfying thing ever. RAWR FEAR THE LIMPBIT.

Don't count on it. With the new additions being made to the game, by the end of next summer Planetside could be more popular than it has ever been.

I'd rather they not do any expansion that will possibly further divide the population and make it even harder to find good battles. It's been bad lately. So space and navy are out for me I think.

Not even if navy merely meant the addition of docks to the continents so people could use ships on the existing continents?

And what's this about Planetside dying by Summer, what a load of crap tbh. It's pretty safe to say stuff will be added.

PlanetSide, in my opinion, will be old once the player creates a BR20 CR5 on each of the factions. The only thrill of PlanetSide once that happens, is just going on rampages for Kill Rankings.

That's just my opinion... The game is much better when you are actually working toward something to make your character better.

You probably left out "as it is now".

Some people say that a expansion will make the battles on auraxis smaller.

Well i say to Hell with that and make the battles smaller it will destroy the Zerg infestion forever.

Yep, i said it, someone had to say it, It had to be said. Creating another expansion for PlanetSide will make the Battles smaller only becuase there a new place to fight and there wont be anymore Zerg vs. Zerg battles, just large skirmishes across Planetside.

What expansion should come first "Navy" or "Space fleets", well thats just a good question. That like asking which came first the Chicken or the Egg *cough* the chicken *cough*. But what ever expansion gets here its going to be a big hit so dont worry about it.

But what ever expansion gets here its going to be a big hit so dont worry about it.

And we know this because?

Because Core Combat is such an unqualified hit?

Because recent changes seem to reflect a slight downward trend in overall population?

i beleive one of the devs said there would be no more expansions, instead they would just add to the game and CC
