View Full Version : Just an idea on how it all could start

Hypothetical

Planetside is released and we all sign up. lets say 2000 people on the server.

For the first three days everyone is flying and driving and just getting the lay of the land.
No one is shooting because the devs have got a global lock on all weapons. (bare with me)
On the fourth day we're all salivating over starting a battle.
A server wide message goes up to all come to the center continent.
The Devs give a little speach from a hill in front of 2000 players.

Then they just unlocks all weapons while we're all just standing around in a big mob.

Not that im gonna be an expert at the game when i get it, but i plan on taking a squad to the closest continent to an enemies sanctuary and seeing what i can stir up. Nothing like stepping into a fresh warp gate and seeing enemy barrells up your nose.

I wouldn't mind if the first day was like that, that way it allows everyone to go to VR training and complete it upon release, and then release the floodgates, but 3 days?

I thought sputty was smart enough to stay away from the TR. First thing I'm gonna do is teach sandtrout how to take a judo fall so he doesn't get knocked out by a wussy little tackle (triumverate).

I can see that happening for open beta. Weapons lock on everyone untill the land is more or less explored. Then a massive "stress test" on cyssor and suddenly the message comes over server wide "Weapon unlocked".

Oh that would be so much fun, maybe they could give a free copy of the game, or like a month or two, to the person with the most kills or the last man standing.

Well I for one wont charge right into battle im gonna do some vr training or something and the first time i go into battle it will be with an assult rifle or shotty. I may have misinterpreted it but dont you start with only the Pistol skill requiring you to get cert for bigger betta things?

edited in: Why does it seem like everytime i think about this game it seems further away... DAMN!

haha, I just had a mental image of a midget schopenbulb running out from under a tall guy's legs with an MP5, like in the movie "Mafia"

"Say hello to my little friend..."BANG BANG

Imagine some noob hopping into a Galaxy during that speech, and then crashing it, right on top of the devs, and the 2000 other people circled around them! :bouncy:

Bah, had that realy been me, I would have just asked the would-be terran to pass the sugar and put a bullet in the back of his head.

The medic would be seing a proctologist about my MAG-cutter.

The first thing I'm doing is finding Havel and Killian and feeding them the barrel of my Gauss.

Well I doubt something like that would happen, but it is a cool idea just for the dramatic effect of having 2000 people who can't wait to start killing each other and then the weapons lock going off when they are all together. Unfortunately it would be a lot better as a surprise and now that won't happen. :(

Not that I'm bitter. :D

I would be really unhappy if they locked me out of online gameplay for 1/10th of my first free month (or paid month, whatever it is - I want to play it.)
