HALO?! i played halo for a while, but then i got bored. HALO can't be compared in any way to Planetside, PS is incomparably better.

Well lets see here...

Both got vehicles, both got guns, and whatever else they share...
PS is always changing with updates and addons while Halo stays the same.
PS you can play with thousands of people and Halo?! you play what? 16 people at once...

hey now dont knock Halo just because this game kicks ass!!! Halo is good too its just a different game for a different system.

Zenny
2003-05-08, 01:40 AM
errrr.... what i meant is that in the future, the game is bound to have things added to it like vehicles.
Every MMO game have I played have always put something new into the game to keep the players happy.
So I am just saying chances are we can expect new stuff as time passes when the game releases.

Ah yes the sound of a teeny bopper, it's days like this when i feel my knuckles get downright arthritic as I try to post a response to such an wonderfully retarted little post.

I whouldnt totaly discount the thought of genetic engineering though. But this game has a much prouder pedagree then any bastard child bought up by microsoft little single player trifle that i beat in a few hours while at a friends place and never came back to again. No this game is the geneticly enhanced and redisigned stephild of the legendary Tribes (the first one) which i STILL play how many years later.

So my theory on you is:

Your a retard-ok it's not so much a theory as a mathmatical extrapalation, based on your posting style and mannerisms.

You've never played the game and based on the kinda chilly reception your dimwitted asertions got on the boards, decided that since all the smart kids like it, it cant be good.

OR

You have played but since you tried to play it like HALO someone shoved a max cannon up your ass (which you were pissed because it wasnt a MECH) and because the Anti-P ammo you'd been using didnt do squat to it, died repeatedly, because the covenenant dont spawn camp or use small unit tactics.

Lemme know if i'm way off the mar.

Other games you might try that involve attacking bases prominently.
Any CTF game you'd like to mention
Firearms.
Unreal.
BF

*kill opponents*
*one team dies*
*restart round*

Prob a lot longer than 10 months.

If you're a FPS player, it's not the different objectives that keep you playing the game, it the fights and the frags.

This person is obviously incapable of making friends.

I've played a little game called Infantry for over 3 years now. The graphics are shit, the gameplay's limited, and the community sucks for the most part. The reason I still play is all the cool people I've met on the game , and the league me and all my friends participate in. That's why I've been playing that shitty 2d overhead shooter since I was a freshman. I can see myself playing PS for a loooooooong time, since a lot of cool people from Infantry are coming over to PS.

i can see me in for many many moons... err. .years (what mmo is this again? ;) )

Sorry, but i am in this game for the long haul.

1. Ever expanding content, as confirmed by the CEO of SOE.
2. massive (and i mean massive) battles of a hundred or hundreds for just one base.
3. New skills
4. Nice Vehicle interface
5. Ever adaptive Tactics
6. NO AI!! (except for those damn turrets)
7. Did I mention the 1000s of players on one server set?
8. Many of my online crew is migrating to it.
9. The ability to conquer.
10. the ability to save.
11. The ability to become a feared badass.

This game is such a ripoff of wolf3D.. i'll probably just play for a month because it is old, overdone and unoriginal.

I agree with several of the above statements. The game is about the fight and your squadmates.. and VS locking down THREE.. yes THREE continents on Malkov last night woot.

At least I think it was malkov, I can't remember what server I'm on.. staying up wayyy too late.

God why dont you ever just shut up? U and warpig are the biggest jackasses ever, IF U DONT LIKE THE DAMN GAME DONT PLAY IT! O-M-G it shares elements from halo, an awsome game. Your phillosphy should then be along the lines of if it aint orrigonal then it sucks. BUT WAIT DERS MORE! Why not add 25 foot walking battle mechs to the game with lasers and missles. Pft buncha idiots

yawn.

you dont like my opinion. tough.

there are still those who voted 1-3 months FYI.

60+13/month is stupid and only kids with way to much money to waste.


i bet you guys talk crap about black kids who waste too much money on sneakers.

well, whitey paying thousands of dollars on software and hardware every year looks alot dumber.

SOE knows that. They know you dumb white kids are too stupid to know better.

you know, i just got to add more to this. I am dumbfounded on your comments about software and tennis shoes. At least try to make an intelligent argument. I mean, some what intelligent? Somewhat coherent? damn. guess u can't.

I'll even leave out your racist comments (i could go on for ages about that stupid shit you spouted) and i'll comment on spending thousands of dollars.

People buy all sorts of shit and spend money in all sorts of items in order to pass the time. And I've never considered any of it stupid.

1. Women (like my wife) love to shop, especially for shoes.
2. People love to spend thousands of dollars working on the cars, customizing them.
3. People spend thousands of dollars on books for their personal libraries.
4. Money is spent on hobbies like Hiking, Biking and Camping
5. People spend money computer hardware to customize their rigs.
6. People spend money on DVD Collections
7. On photography
8. On remote control models
9. on Beanie Babies.

I mean, you argument has no basis as its this type of spending that people enjoy and helps drive an economy. you are a fool for thinking otherwise.

Pay to Play is no big deal. $13/month = what?

A pizza? no, these days - a good pizza is about $16 and lasts about 30 minutes.
A case of Beer? nope, hell, the last 12 pack i bought was $13. and lasts about a good nite.
A movie? Depends, you got a date? if you got a date, its way past that $13. That's two hours and doesn't include the over priced diet coke you know your date is gonna get (plus u don't konw if you gonna get lucky)
A rental? Maybe, if you get just one movie a month and never turn it in late. And then you only get it for a few days.
Dinner? Anything outside of fast food costs u a minumum of $13. 9.95 for a decent maincourse, 1.50 for your tea or coke, plus tax and tip.

So $13 is not a lot to spend for entertainment. Hell, if you just play 1 friggin' hour a night for a 30 day month that equals = $.43 an hour. I'm sorry, but your arguments suck, and i've yet to spend thousands a year for software.

Maybe they could add customizable shoes for female characters then maybe the wife will play..

God dont get me started on Valve those idiots always manage to ruin a good thing, Anyone ever played DoD? Beta 3.1 was awsome i loved it and i was excelent at the game. Then Valve takes this 3rd party mod buys it says they made it like they made counterstrike and made the game counter strike with WW2 Weapons. The game is now horrible altho they claim they didnt change anything but the graphics.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not playing devil's advocate for the hell of it. But he does have at least [/i]some[/i] kind of point. ~tactful, yes? ;)

Anyway, at the present moment, I happen to be a Planetside fanatic. In order to keep this kind of devotion, however, there needs to be a lot more incentive. Better incentives for base defense. Much better incentives for continent lock-downs. There are many things that could be improved, but that is what MMO styled games are all about. Faith in the devs is what we need, and we should never cease all of our great ideas. Who knows... with the way things are going, some of our ideas may actually become implemented.

AcidCat
2003-05-08, 05:21 PM
Though the original poster doesn't ... er present his ideas very well and comes off as just a troll, there is a kernel of truth here (and it has nothing to do with Halo!)

I know I'm not the only one that has already grown bored of the game. I REALLY WANT to keep enjoying the game ... but it just feels played out to me as much as I want to deny it. I just don't think having a constant world adds anything substantial to the actual gameplay - so what if you don't have a round that ends, in practice you just have one really long round that lasts from when you log on until you log off. Sure there are different plants and varying geography, but all the bases and towers are the same. same same same, there is just too much sameness here. A game like Battlefield, every map brings different strategies and a different feel .... I think ultimately Planetside is just limited by its own design.

Well I will agree that at the moment there really isn't alot of reason to take bases. Bio Labs allow you to train in the field, Dropship bases allow you to buy Galaxies, and the other facilities uhh... I'm sure they do something but, it's nothing that makes or breaks an Army. There should be something powerful on each island worth guarding ie. a commander can launch nuke shot on a base or the capability to buy advanced weapons, armor, vehicle only if you control a certain facility, maybe you need a radar station on continent or you'll have no map function as a way to blind your enemy. These are just a few suggestions to enhance Planetside. As it stands now it's fun but, I can see a certain freshness level start to drop if the developers let content slip.

Actually, I probably will play this for quite a while. It is just so much fun!

And, as far as you calling this game a HALO clone:
:rofl:
I wish you where joking, cause then I could laugh with you, instead of directly at you. This game is not a HALO clone. Let me repeat that, this game is NOT a HALO clone. It is similar, becuase you use guns in both games, and the VS armor looks kinda like that HALO dudes armor (if you stand on your head, star at it for an hour, and drop some acid. :D).
In short, please do shut up. :D
