I find it pretty weak, as was the Christmas art of last year with the crappy hats...I think Devs don't put enough effort onto design in this game, this reflects on the base and sanctuary designs and with the special occasion designs (Christmas, Easter (which didn't even have one), Halloween)

Look at PS and their Pumpkin backpack and Hats and at FF XI with fully decorated evyronment, that would eb the same as having witches drawings or whatever on base walls, some darker lightning, pumpkins at doors, sound, etc, its a bit of an update yeah but its very cool and fun.

For those who think I shouldn't compare cause FF XI is an RPG, I should, they are both MMO games and we pay a monthly charge for a good service (which sometimes we dont get with PS but tis still an awesome game.

I have two responses: The first is that the devs were obviously working flat out on BFRs and the like with a smaller dev team than FFXI (I'd expect anyway).

Secondly, Planetside runs with difficulty on most people's computers now anyway. Too much added decoration would grind most players' machines to a halt.

Festivities are hardly going to be the top of the agenda, are they? You said yourself you'd rather see them doing bug fixes and redesigning the bases, which they are doing both of. They're not superhuman, y'know..

I most definitely agree. What do you think is more important in a game? Holiday festivities or feature enhancements/fixes? It's all about priorities. Worst case, cancel your PS subscription and enjoy FFwhatevernumberthey'reuptonow.
