NPC's in Planetside 2

[Hooah]

Would you like to see mobs or critters in form of NPC's in your battlefield?
Personally I think this will add a more "living" enviroment.

Don't expect it to stay alive for very long...

As in animals or humanoid NPC?

Sure some wildlife like birds would make the place seem livelier, but not sure about human NPC. Perhaps in several years.

What he said ^.

I wouldn't expect anything in the PS2 world to stay alive too long. Except maybe birds. So if you want a "living" environment, add some deer carcasses on the roads... and birdpoop on all the air pads.

Eh..
Wouldn't that make the population of actual people on the map go down?

[Saieno]

They were actually planned for Planetside but ultimately weren't implemented. I would assume because there was too much computationally going on for them to function correctly. Not to mention it would bring down the frame rate dramatically back then.
