This is about the devs of PS listening to the players.
If you, like me, have been playing PlanetSide since retail OR even BETA you have noticed that the devs have indeed listened to the players, which is very good and shows they do care, a recent example of this is the obvious BFR, months ago it was suggested in the PS forums by a player the idea, whatever it was called, probably not BFR I assume lol but ya, it was there, it was seen and after a while now its in the game.
However the devs should listen to other things, at the moment all they do is add new vehicles and sumtimes weapons and even new locations with CC, however they neglect existing problems such as some bugs and the biggest one for me and a few others, design.
It has been discussed many times the base design is one of the reason why some people eventually leave or become bored and cancel for a while, the bases are all very very similar, there are only a few diff designs and even those look similar.
The devs should in my opinion re-design the bases, maybe keep a few like they are but they need more complex bases with mroe combat oriented design, the current ones look like they were made by me on the C&C: Generals map maker, simple boxes and same inside, simple corridors with plain walls, small boxes that server no purpose downstairs except for sum combat but often not used because they are actually pointless.
So why haven't the devs listened to this? I do not know...but it has been going for a while...same goes for towers, they said they would change those with silos and so on but they also didn't do that...
