How many of you who played PS1 will change to a different faction for PS2?

I started TR because my friend was there.;)

But in my heart, I more than likely would've picked NC.:evil:

Never! NC for life, well as my main on the server I dedicate myself to anyway lol.

I will play TR and VS on other servers, just for fun but nothing serious.

I'm a TR.

End of story.

As FireFly says, "I'm TR until the day I die, then I will respawn as TR."

Just saying, the poll options could have done without the smart comments. I WAS gonna pick the one that said Vanu, since I hadn't played PS1, but the dialogue after the choice made me pick the first one.

I would have been NC in PS1 if I could have changed my TR's empire.

So kinda.

Once a VS, always a VS. Don't they teach loyalty to the TR anymore? ;)

Honestly TR would be the only empire I would even loosely consider switching to, just because I've always had good experiences with TR (playing with them and fighting against them), and I like some of their armor/weapon/vehicle designs in PS2.

But that doesn't mean I'd switch to them, unless for some reason I couldn't stand playing as the VS in PS2. But what, am I going to give up hover tanks, and aircraft that spit in Newtons face? Not likely :D

Anything but NC though. Seriously, fuck the NC. Never liked them in PS1 and they got hit with a devastating blow from the ugly stick in PS2. :lol:

I thought I'd stick with VS through thick and thin, but I've been disappointed with them so far.

I'll ultimately go with whichever one I like the aesthetics of the best. Still debating which one that is, but TR has impressed me the most. The NC and VS just have more stuff that looks a bit...lame.

We would gladly welcome you to the NC, and I'd never betray my smurfs.

I'm a betrayer!!!

I always played VS, but in PS2 the overall look of the VS doesn't appeal to me, always had a second love for TR, and seeing they look totally awesome in PS2, I'm switching sides.

I will never ever play NC, them overpowered JH's messed them up for me!!

You are only a traitor if you were to remain something other than TR.


Only as a TR can your loyalty be true!

Rofl, wait wait wait, why are the Vanu hipsters? "I want to join a group of similar looking people so I can be different". The hell? :rofl:

Know what? ALL of these choices are silly! Looks like NC are also hipsters, and the TR just like pretty colors. :rofl:

I'm NC hard core. I tried some TR and VS before on other servers like Heaven did, but really NC is the one that is really me.

Not to mention we get a LOT of the old PS1 common pool weapons AND we get the Reaver. NC hands down for me, it'll be like PS1 all over again if not more!

I was thinking of switching to the NC because I kinda prefer their tank opposed to the TR tank, but after seeing the new look for the lightning I decided that will be my preferred vehicle, and I don't have to betray the good old TR!!!

Don't be like everyone else! Join the New Conglomerate like the rest of us!
I'm joining the Vanu sovereignty because I want to be different.

Wait, which one do I join if I don't want to conform? So confused.

NC has what I like!

But I won't say no to a big bag of money from the VS or Terran governments.

I played TR and my buddy played NC sadly I will be switching to NC so we can be on the same side. Call me a trader. TR to NC is the most common switch imo just for the fact that the TR have corrupt ways (i switched after I read the backstories) I feel like its in my better interest too join the NC.

I played TR because the NC had both other factions outnumbered 2 - 1 on Johari. Combined.

Jackhammers and lameness of the easiest faction to play back in the day was a major pull for scrubs.

Fortunately, I think PS2 will be considerably more balanced, with a greater variety of options for play styles within each faction. No longer will the NC be the lol one shot so much skill faction (ages before UMAD became common usage). So I will probably play whichever faction has the lowest population on my server.

I will never bother with the other factions!

The NC is run by corporations. The NC would have just as much corruption, if not more, were they to succeed.

The Vanu are the most selfless, but they're also potentially leading mankind toward ruin through irresponsible acceptance and use of new technologies that we barely understand. Not to mention the cult like devotion to Vanu, who may tun out to be not so great a dude.

I think most of this forum's visitors have their allegiances set pretty straight. Kind of a mute question, really.

Freedom over opression.
As in freedom, glory, and beer, DUH.

But what if we havn't played PS1? Do we vote for the empire or the option of bleeding for it?

I'm enlisting in the Terran republic. I love the color scheme.

Pretty much. Our long time guild colors dictated our choice.

The poll is flawed much. Besides there are some outfits that are going to hold a vote before the release. Thus the option "where my outfit goes" is still valid.

I bleed Blue and Gold. It's the only faction I ever played in PS1 since 03.

I voted that I will stay with my main faction from PS1 (TR).

HOWEVER, after seeing the NC max in that live stream just now... boy do I want to climb inside that beast.

have to agree here could have been a more mature poll with just the choices without the other comments there.

I've always played VS primarily. Barny for life yo, "I love you, you love me" and all that jazz.

However, I will often join the least populated side when a large discrepancy in population is there.

TR! MCG ftw!

Loyalty until Death! Strength in Unity! Order requires law. Law is enforced through deterrence. Deterrence is based on the fear of consequences, and fear is the most powerful motivating force.

Was TR way back when. Though after seeing the footage of the NC guys... Its hard for me to look away at that. Conflicted with old pride and new aesthetic wants. May just end up up flipping a coin.

We were Vanu first time around for no other reason than the major for the section picked purple... seriously, i have no idea why he picked it, but it set us on course for the decade. We'll be vanu again. And loving it, although, after a certain amount of time, we will eventually try out all the factions I'm guessing.

But out of the gate.. Vanu all the way.

In PS1 I played TR, but I guess I was never fortunate enough to feel any sort of allegiance to my empire. I enjoyed jumping around to try out other factions, and only stayed TR because I found an outfit I loved (KAAOS). I will probably end up going VS this time around simply due to the fact that the friends I have shown the game to seem to gravitate more towards the VS style of play, but I suspect I will still try the other empires.

Markov is the best faction... I do play for one of its outfit confederations known as the Terran Republic.

Terran Republic is the ONLY correct choice. As it always has been.

Who are YOU to speak of loyalty, vanu scum!!

History will tell you that auraxis is inhabitated by a single empire, always was and always will be. The rest is just a bunch of cutthroat deserters. Nothing else.

I started as TR, fell to the NC, and realized my heart wasn't in it. It wasn't until I joined with the VS that I realized that I was home. Vanu for life! (Now to find a solid outfit for PS2)

I remember reading the opening blurb on each Empire all those years ago, and being instantly drawn to the VS.
I've dabbled with the TR and NC over the years, but never seriously.

Playing as another Empire always feels like you're cheating on your wife.

I too have dabbled with the TR and NC. Mostly I have "dabbled" them on the pointy end of my Lasher or Lancer.
