Have you had ONE minute of gameplay like this in PS2 yet? [Archive]

While recording some Bad Company 2 gameplay footage in preparation for my gamer survey, I experienced the most exciting one minute of gameplay so far to date. It was almost like watching a scene from a Michael Bay movie.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ0e4BuO3oU

My pulse was pounding when all was said and done. It was the perfect trifecta of visual effects, sound effects, and pure fun gameplay that I've experienced to date while playing a game.

While I've had some really fun moments during large battles in PS2, I can honestly say that none of my PS2 gameplay (or any other game for that matter) has even come close to what I experienced while playing a 4 year old game.

Have any of you experienced just as thrilling a minute of PS2 gameplay yet?

Yes. I had an hour of intense combat last night. Way more exciting than that. We held Scarred Mesa Skydock against hordes of TR. We must have destroyed at least 10 sunderers. It was raining mosquito parts.

You're right. Actually, I've had some moments in PS2 while defending Scarred Mesa Skydock that have come very close to the BC2 experience I had.

The main difference though was the PS2 action in that instance was a little less "up close and personal" as we were repelling air attacks and sporadic infantry attacks via the jump pad platform.

I'll post that PS2 gameplay footage shortly.

Nice compilation video but it really doesn't count.

I'm talking about one CONSECUTIVE minute of gameplay action, not a 3 minutes of clips from different gameplay times cobbled together in a montage.

I have better runs than this on a daily basis in PS2. There is often much more going on and a lot more explosions... TBA that clip was very boring.

Here are 3 mins of much more excitement =)

Meh, seen more action in PS2 in 1 minute than I have ever seen in BC/BC2/BF3 honestly. It all depends on where you are and if you know how to find battles. I've seen things that battlefield simply can't pull off due to player size restrictions and vehicle spawn limitations in battlefield.

If you really want to break down videos and games.. in BC2 the only reason that 1 minute clip is even possible is because of the fast HP regen in that game. Otherwise that person probably would have died shortly after his screen went deep red before regening back to full health mere seconds later. The player was an engineer.. no medic pack.. the in game regen saved his butt.. which is lame.

I don't normally think much of montages, but this is an exception; an excellent selection showing a wide variety of action.

And whilst BFBC2 is a good game, it seems; well, very one dimensional when compared to PS2, even though PS2 still has issues.

I need to set the record straight. As I was the gamer in the video (recording BC2 gameplay footage for my surveys), I know a little about what you're saying firsthand.

* Regen in BC2 does NOT begin until you're no longer under fire for a period of 10 seconds. I was under fire during that clip segment.

* My health was regenerating quickly because nearby friendly medics dropped medpacks, which regenerate health MUCH faster than natural regen ever could. This is NO different than PS2 combat medics using their regen guns on you while you're injured. In fact, PS2 has MORE regen gimmicks by way of regen grenades and ressurection grenades, regen stim injections, etc than BC2 ever had.

* The enemy soldiers in that video WERE able to fire back and defend themselves as they were only waist deep in water. You cannot fire only if you're neck deep in water.

Lots of comments being made about the video in question without really understanding BC2 gameplay mechanics or paying close attention to what's going on in the video.

I never said they couldn't fire. I don't consider fighting enemies in water to be much of a challenge as they don't have cover or mobility. It was quote obvious you were being shot at. But nice assumptions, I guess.

Anyway I don't understand the point of this thread. I'd be amazed if anyone who has played PS2 hasn't seen this much action in one minute.

First point... no medic pack marker around your HUD. Unlike the Ammo marker on your HUD after you regen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ0e4BuO3oU?t=18s

Second, no.. they were only able to retaliate once. At http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ0e4BuO3oU?t=31s You can see they are infact swimming... no weapons shown. Then at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ0e4BuO3oU?t=45s You kill people in waist high water with weapons drawn... and firing back at you. Then at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ0e4BuO3oU?t=52s You are firing at people that are clearly swimming away from the Helio in the water... notice weapons not drawn again until well after you started firing on them.

When the TR of Matterson held Scarred Mesa Skydock, As waves after wave of NC and Vanu came charging at us! Galaxies, Liberators, Sythes and Reavers filled the sky as the TR fired in mass with Anti Air Maxes! Inflators off the side sniping Phoenix launcher NC!

If you're having problems finding more Michael Bay action in PS2 vs BC2, you're doing it wrong, seriously.

Planetside 2 has a patent on action movie game play. Don't get me wrong, I love BF series but this game has more Battlefield moments than all BF titles combined.

^ This, Battlefield is gradually having less battlefield moments. PS2 delivers and this is coming from a person that started with BF2 and played every BF gaming including F2P and BC up till BF3... something like 5-6 titles. PS2 delivers what Battlefield used to have.

When you cant see the sun because of enemy air. When the ground boils with vehicles. When you see a hundred men charging a defended outpost. These things are only seen really in PS2. So why continue to compare older games that dont have these amazing features?

Dragonskin

2013-04-26, 01:01 PM

If you've really played BC2 (or any game for that matter), you would know that just because you SEE an animation on screen does NOT mean that any action is prohibited necessarily.

Case in point: you see an enemy and retreat around a corner, only do die by bullets. What you SEE is NOT necessarily the case.

Also, I wasn't LOOKING at the medpacks, unlike the ammo pack, so of course, I would NOT see the medpack marker on my screen/HUD.

Let's do this again... sooo ready?

First point... So you are saying the medpack is there, but we can see it.. like a bug. Fair enough. Games have bugs. But this isn't the case... read below.

Second... That is called lag... which isn't a bug. It has to do with when their client updates with the server information. They think they got away from death yet the server tells them... nope you actually died.

Third... the ammo pack goes off screen initially, but the HUD icon is there. You then look at the general direction and clearly see the ammo pack. As you were walking up to the beach you had clear line of sight to everything around you. There was no med pack. As you moved around.. there was still no med pack on your HUD. If the medpack was there it should have showed on your HUD like the ammo that went off screen but was still in your general area. Notice how you did't have to stand on it to see it... it was like 30 feet from you down the beach and the icon was still there.

Sorry that you think your vid had skill in it when you actually shot people in water that can't fire back... everyone that plays BF games knows if you are in water and swimming then you can' fire back... and the game saved your butt by regenning you repeatedly so that you wouldn't die. The regen thing isn't new.. it's in the game to keep the bads alive. Planetside 2 doesn't hold your hand like that. If you want auto regen without a medic helping you then you have to own a Biolab in PS2 and even then the regen rate is slow over the course of something like 45 seconds. In newer BF games auto heal is near instant.

Do you really want to go through this again?

Honestly, that looked boring as hell. If you were going to show more exciting moment of BC2 it would be fighting over an XCOM about to explode.

It looks just like ANY other shooter when you have the advantage on the guys assaulting a position.

If you aren't having this "fun" in PS2, change up your playstyle or find people to play with.

AGAIN, I am not comparing games from a features perspective.

I'm conducting a survey on what influences casual gamers in deciding which games (among a small subset consisting of Bad Company 2, BF3, and PS2) they wish to bother trying at all.

I have found the results so far quite interesting, given that the "leader" is a 4 year old game (even if some of you do not).

No, you were showing that BC2 had better action moments than PS2. I was explaining how you pulled off this video in the first place which has to do with in game mechanics (auto regen + shooting people unable to defend themselves). If the game didn't auto heal you then you would have died to the first wave of assaulters... like people do in PS2 which dying kinda ruins action moments most of the time. Then you got a kill streak because you were mostly shooting people that can't shoot back. There is absolutely nothing else to see in the video aside from graphics.

Anyway, I've had my fun. Please feel free to continue your trolling. Oh and yes, please post more footage so I can disect it.

2013-04-26, 01:11 PM

First point: You can't see the medpack because my character is not looking down at it, unlike the ammo pack which happened to be in my field of vision at the time. It has nothing to do with bugs. It has everything to do with whether you're looking in the direction where the medpack happens to be.

Second point: Whether it's lag or a bug is irrelevant. The point is again what one perceives in game can be entirely different from the actual effect (bug or lag induced). We're talking about what happens in-game here after all, NOT reality.

Third point: Again, see the first point.

Fourth point: When did I ever say that my video clip was about skill? Like the other points, you're making up stuff as you go along. All I said was that this was the most exciting one minute of gameplay that I've experienced so far in any game. Again, you're the one making things up and saying that my video is about "skill", NOT me.

I've put you on "ignore" now since it's clear that you just want to argue for the sake of arguing and are making things up (like saying that I think my video was about "skill" when I never said anything of the sort).

Now, I'm ready, thanks.

I loved BC2, but honestly I've been in similar or even "more exciting" moments than this in PlanetSide 2 on many occasions already. I think the average person is way too passive in this game, whereas I always have a blast with my relatively aggressive play style.

I still keep a decent KD and SPM but I have a lot of fun while doing it. Idk how many times ill respawn multiple times to see the same people just sitting in a corner or behind the comfort of spawn shields trying to shoot the one guy that passes by every few minutes. Not me!

2013-04-26, 01:32 PM

PlanetSide 2 is exciting, and it could be even more exciting if we had new voices for characters (they should use new voices for TR and NC, both sound not matching the game itself. TR should sound more badass like they're not afraid of anything, and NC should sound something like they're all full of hope for their freedom). Not to say that we should be able to "climb" things like aircraft (you know, PlanetSide 2 trailer). As for killing pilots with carbines or any infantry weapon just by shooting at the cockpit, it wouldn't be cool.

I was hoping that we could climb aircraft as well (as per the PS2 trailer) and shoot pilots in their cockpits, but it's probably best that PS2 doesn't allow it. After all, it's already too easy to destroy enemy aircraft.

I will say that you CAN shoot pilots in aircraft. I've sniped quite a few copter pilots while playing BC2 back in the day. There's nothing like watching a copter careen out of control and crash after you've shot and killed the pilot behind the controls.

It reminds me of that one scene in the movie "Aliens" where the dropship aircraft careened out of control and crashed into the APC after the xenomorph killed the female pilot.

This is a laughable comparision. There are many more moments in PS2 that are far better than moments in BFBC2. I put 10,000+ hours into the BF franchise, Planetside 2 is the evolution of playing war, not a run and gun choke point skill-less shooter like BFBC2.

BF 1942, BF2, BFV, BF2142, and Point of Existence Mod, Desert Combat Mod were all supirior in gamplay to the latest BFBC2 and BF3 offerings.

I eagerly look forward to watching a video of your one minute, consecutive, non-staged or faked PS2 gameplay that's just as exciting if not more so.

As for the Desert Combat mod, it's more fun watching paint dry.

It's routine to have fights as or more intense than this any time there's an infantry fight between a couple squads or more, which is quite common these days. And those fights last longer than one minute.

get out of here OP

Sounds like a certain infiltrator around here.

Nice compilation video but it really doesn't count.

I'm talking about one CONSECUTIVE minute of gameplay action, not a 3 minutes of clips from different gameplay times cobbled together in a montage.

Please. The only reason you were able to get that single minute of gameplay in BC2 was because 1) you got extremely lucky in that you were never really fighting more than one guy at a time, 2) those guys were fucking terrible, and 3) the respawn mechanic makes it so those retarded people can basically respawn right back into the fight, which means much shorter delay on getting back into the action (which removes consequence from death).

What did you think was gonna happen when you decided to post videos discrediting PS2 on a forum filled with avid PS2 players? We all already know that PS2 is much less of a casual-friendly game than twitch shooters like BC2 and CoD, so your little experiment is pretty pointless. If you enjoy a casual experience more than a team-oriented one, you are clearly playing the wrong game.

tbh yes had far better fights then that in planetside 2 and also back in the battlefield vietnam days.
that was just lambs to the slaughter, bad players on opposite team ;) but nice kills.

I've experienced HOURS of gameplay better than this.

I've had many single minutes of gameplay much more intense then that in Planetside ONE, and I've had a couple in PS2.

It really doesn't seem like you've played PS2 very much, and if so you must only dedicate your time to 1 or 2 spectrums of combat.

This is honestly a problem I see with PS2. There are just soooo many noobs thrown into the mix, I wonder how freaking hard this game is for them? I know it would be extremely boring if I couldn't kick ass and most people who play PS2 cant. I wonder, then, if they don't ever have those moments where YOU, the single player, changed the entire battle and essentially won it for your empire, how boring they must think this game is?

And to answer the OP, yes, I have had moments like that. Many many moments. Yes, BC2 was a good game but it doesn't offer the same scale of combat and the same feeling when you, the player, decide the outcome of a battle involving hundreds of players. It's possible because I have done it, in both PS1 and PS2, but it isn't easy. The noobs never see this moment and I really wonder why they even bother playing the game if they suck; it must be so boring for them.
