VOTE 1! PLANETSIDE 2!...yea.
while you're at it, you can also hype the game @ mmorpg.com, its in the top 10 most anticipated games, but i think we can make it first....this takes sore more effort because of the sites rules on new members voting so its not for greenhorns...

I voted on the first site but it might be awhile until I vote on the second since there's a "point gaining" system for accounts so you can't abuse the hype system. Normally I'd say fuck it, but I care just enough that I'll get those 5 points I need to vote.

Log in once a day for 1 point.
Make valid posts and comments to earn more. Behave like a tard and your points will decrase.
BTW I'd suggest to keep our good manners there. The mature community is such a perk for PS that most MMO-s really lack. Don't need to ruin our reputation before it is built there!
On a sidenote, how comes it is a VS on the icon of the game? SOE uses the 'number 2' icon everywhere. And the comment PS2 receives from players never heard of the game that "BORING, IT IS LIKE HALO..." Don't feed these trolls with a halo-ish looking faction pls! ;)
Don't worry troltaxi, that thread made for us was amazing!

I voted but I also looked at the total number of votes. I seriously think this is a waste of time. If the goal is to raise awareness this isn't the place to do it.
Data:
http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/mmosite.com
Compared with internet averages, the site appeals more to users who are under the age of 25; its visitors also tend to consist of childless men earning less than $30,000 who have no postgraduate education and browse from home and school. Approximately 47% of visits to Mmosite.com are bounces (one pageview only). Search engines refer roughly 24% of visits to the site.
If you want to keep going at this feel free but I think our time could be better spent elsewhere.

2011-11-27, 12:37 AM
I agree with 1nsaneo... as cool as it would be to see PS2 get the #1 most anticipated and maybe get a bit of awareness, it most likely won't happen. It's at 398 compared to some 3000 (is it now?) Firefall votes. Nobody knows about PS2, so nobody is going to vote for it over Firefall.

It didn't.

PlanetSide 2 is now up to the number four position for this award. Keep the voting up on a daily basis, and remember you can vote from your smart phone as well as it is a different IP then your home machine IP.
Personally, I have been voting from work as well too since the range of IP's provides the effect of a proxy server.

I apologize if this is already in the post but do we know when these polls end?

Ten Ton Hammer is Mid December.
Also, we have Repulse fighting back, don't let up the pressure, they just flooded with another 40 votes or so ;)
Data so far today
3090 2020 1564 1518
3094 2020 1564 1524
3108 2021 1577 1546
3110 2021 1584 1547

How that mmosite poll should look:
1. Planetside 2 (of course)
2 and 3. Any other actual MMOish type of game that is actually interesting looking. Maybe:
2. Guild Wars 2
3. Firefall
Neither of those are as massive or persistent as Planetside 2, but at least they are more deserving than some of those contestants.

Yes, let's not get Planetside 2 expelled or get it's votes thrown out. Stay classy, we can do this.
That's awesome that we bumped PS2 from a write in to an official option. Talk about getting the word out. PS2 went from a write in, to a 3rd place result (exposure) to an official option (more exposure).
Don't forget to keep an eye out for other polls and search out other message boards to spread the word. Just remember to give Planetside fans a good image.

I usually set up my Slave Machine and use a macro to cycle in votes in random increments ranging from 1 to 5 minuets and then just turn the monitor off and let it do its thing.
I don't like winning like this, but sometimes you have to get your hands dirty in order to "Just Win Baby!" Luckily for me my Corp. masters allow the employees to set up a VPN and have a very liberal open internet policy.

First of all I should say that you, folks, are the best team I've ever seen. 1k votes in a couple of days it's really awesome.
But sure, we still need to keep voting to knock out that people who seems are going to fight with the best community in the world (I mean that REPULSE followers, who made so bad decision)
And to SOE dev team:
So, suppose, you guys, should decide what gifts you should prepare for your community to thank them for a great job, or I have to seriously think about what should I say to our customs officer when I will try to transfer through border a few cans of caviar and a couple bottle of vodka for

Dev teams offering rewards for players voting in polls is a no no.
Of course, they could just keep being the most awesome dev team around and release more and more awesome pics. Maybe we can see some MAX screenshots soon?
Plus, as TRay has said, the biggest reward is the potentially larger number of players that things like this will help attract. More targets to shoot at. That's all the incentive I need.

Those mad people there fail to realize that most of us know what Planetside was all about. And pretty much most of the info we've recieved so far has been about what is different in PS2 compared to PS, so we can very much make a picture about the game, even if there was lack of general information about the game.
Understandable if you are an outsider and have hard time understanding how the game can be hyped with so little information.

That's why I have made the "your 3 words of PS" post - so that the essence of the game is easily forwarded. It is not wall of text, it is not hard talk about a complex game of multiple layers and aspect (like explaining RPG to your mother who beleives it is some kind of sect). So don't flood it with in jokes no one understands (but PS-players).

Blizzard and Activison getting together and stating that the next big thing is MMOFPS.... SOE better move fast... not to say they should rush the game.... but considering some stuff i've heard and talked about..... They need to move sooner rather than later... damn the weather effects kinda sooner than later.....
You fuckers know how much I want weather effects.. but if Blizzard gets a grip on this genre before SOE, their fucked.
Blizzard owns Activision now, no?
By my logic, that would mean their next "MMO" is a MW engine that can handle a 64 player map, to compete with BF3. PFFT.

Keep on the Ten Ton Hammer vote, we will get more exposure out of that than MMOSite. And if they are smart, they will fix the vote fail.

Activision and Blizzard are one and the same. And they never said anywhere that they plan to do an MMOFPS. TITAN is NO MMOFPS!

not really, the mmosite is based off IP, domain or they're using some sort of script or some thing to overcome it. TTH is once every 30 seconds. VOTE AWAY I SAY!

Okay but that's just a technicality. I mean, is it okay to hijack the poll just because we are able to? Or are they encouraging people to vote their hearts out?
In other news, Archlord is still rising several hundred votes every 30min cycle, but if i ignore that, we are more or less stagnating compared to Firefall.
Repulse is very slowly but consistently drifting away

I hope it doesn't get disqualified.
Imagine if someone put OUR name into a botnet to get us disqualified...
But the cheat votes have to go. There is no way this is legitimate, it's rising way too consistently for that.
And we are still mostly standing still comopared to Firefall. Inching back and forth slightly. Repulse is still in a decline
edit
Someone from the Firefall forum got this reply on the issue:
About your doubt, we provide two methods for publishers promotion usage. One is the game feature page like Archlord X http://event.mmosite.com/gameprize/?action=gameinfo&cid=25&gid=223, the other is a short of Javascript code. They can use just one or both these two methods to promote. For feature page, people have to come here to vote, or directly go to the category list to vote. If they use Javascript code to vote, people don't need to jump to the vote page http://event.mmosite.com/gameprize/?action=gameinfo&cid=25&gid=223, the Javascript program allows to click once to vote directly, and after successfully voted, each catogory the game is competing for will automatically add up 1 vote. So that's why the Archlord X feature page gets only 4493 clicks, but have 30,000+ votes. The 30,000+ votes are the total amount of all categories, including the votes for Most Anticipated MMO, Best F2P MMO and Best PVP MMORPG category.
After investigating and discussing, we decided to delete all votes in the date of Nov. 30th for Archlord X. We will inform Webzen about this problem first, and take action on it.
Thank you so much for taking care of this issue.

so if archlord x is still in alpha, why is it even in the list for "best f2p" while planetside 2 is not?
and why is ps2 not listed in best mmofps as well?
after all, the games listed there are not even massive multiplayer, so planetside 1, 2 and maybe global agenda should be the only games there.

Only for Archlord, as far as I gathered (Though they still didn't, I guess they are still talking to Webzen)
As for the legitimate participants, Firefall has been 1250 votes ahead of us for the last several hours. It looks like our steam has run out, but surely we can do better than this!
We got more votes at the same time yesterday, so get on it everyone :)
(Interestingly, our votes per 30 min chart is almost the reverse of yesterday's)

so what do we have to do to get planetside 2 into "best gameplay" and "best mmofps" categorys to be able to vote for all categorys with such a 1 click java script as well?
i guess we will not make first place in those categorys, but top ten at least. and it would spread the word about the game a little more.
basti
2011-12-01, 12:09 PM
We wont get them into those categorys. The nominations are done, and the reasons why we are not in there are simple:
1. Firefall has posted more specifics about their F2P model
2. Firefall has posted a lot more gameplay stuff and information.
Firefall is simply a few month ahead of planetside 2.
But obviously, we will have billions of votes in Best MMOFPS and best F2P. :)
Shogun
2011-12-01, 12:30 PM
next years awards will be interesting!
ps2 will rock best gameplay, best f2p, best mmofps and since the later is full of nonmmo games, i see no reason not to highjack best mmorpg in return ;-)

It's good they are stepping up and doing the right thing and voiding those votes. It wasn't very fair to us or FireFall fans. I guess there was enough rabble rabble for them to notice.

On a sidenote: I liked the friendly tone with the Firefall fanbase after they have made their "Alert! Alert! This is not an exercise..." post! :) I think a lot of them will keep an eye on PS2 - and they will serve as cannon-fodders around the start.
We should make sure that the friendly tone between the two games will remain! We can work hard to persuade strangers - or we can make friends and ask them kindly to contribute... :) (I hope we haven't ruined it already, haven't checked their forums yet...)

Don't need a botnet to do what Archlord did, even though its been explained as a website glitch and not an active effort to proxy or bot the vote.
All you need is some know how in setting up a slave machine, writing a quality script to loop, access to a Proxy Server, and know how to mask an IP and generate a large enough range that no IP value gets reused in a 24 hour cycle.
The defacto decision was that we were going to take the high road as a community and not game the system to ensure PS2 would win. I concur with that decision, and refrained from unleashing a realistically probable stream of macro'd votes.

Welcome. Yeah, I'm actually fairly skeptical that MMOsite will actually do something about it when they actually wrote an article freaking bragging about how Crossfire was getting so many votes and winning every catagory when that looks even more suspect than this Archlord crap.
http://news.mmosite.com/content/q/2011-11-29/mmosite_readers_choice_awards_2011_cross_fire_is_t he_biggest_winner_by_now.shtml
This garbage really makes me think that either MMOsite just doesn't give a crap, or they are complicit in this fraud. I hope SOE and Red 5 keep this in mind next time they have some exclusive or media passes to hand out.
FireFall does look pretty cool, and I was totally into it, then Planetside 2 got announced. Then it was like an old girlfriend that you haven't seen in years and she comes back and she's gotten a boob job and isn't crazy anymore and wants to get back together with you. So yeah, her and I have a history so we'll give it another go.
Good luck to you guys though, I'll certainly be checking it out.

It would be nice to see a full spread of decent games in the top 3.
Guild Wars 2 makes sense as a top 3 contender and Tera looks mildly interesting for it's combat. I've got no problem with Firefall being a contender, as it makes for a nice rival to Planetside. Popularization of large scale FPS's can only help both games, I'm sure there will be a healthy number of people who will play them both. Firefall can hook em in by downplaying the MMO part, Planetside 2 can hook em in by playing it up. Together we can blow the lid off this fledgling genre.
As for the current 3rd place contender, once Archlord gets their shit kicked in, how is Repulse even an MMO? It claims to be one on it's official site, but I haven't been able to find any game info that corroborates that claim. You could make arguments for or against Firefall being a full fledged MMO, but it's got a hell of a lot more MMO qualities than Repulse appears to.
And what the fuck is Archlord anyways? Cheating bastards, that's what. Mediocre, rehashed garbage.

Yea i like the look of firefall, its looks refreshing as a shooter and an MMO, but in terms of PVP it looks to be all arena based, and im not sure im that into it. Iv done arena style games, skrimming in FPS and clan matches, it has it fun times and mega boring times and it seriously messes with the head doing that shit contantly.
I like Planetside, i like the thrill of hunting, never knowing whats out there or around the next corner or whats coming up behind you and jsut that epic feeling of constant war that only planetside can offer.
I will checkout Firefall for sure, but im sure ill drop it like a fat whore the second i can get wet with planetside.

Crossfire is as close to an Counter-strike clone as you can get. They just took CS, and put some little MMO stuff on it. Graphics of that game are extremly outdated, and they even just took sounds of other games.
Archlord is a PVP oriented MMORPG. Granted, it got some followers, but look closer on the poll. SWTOR is there as well, now look how many votes that game got. There is a whole bunch of other games that are extremly light on votes, that should be high at the top.
