Like Risk...but with headshots!

[SKYeXile]

I thought planetside 2 was chess? I like the idea if risk better though.

I'm from Florida, Before they cancelled our beloved space program we shot holes in our Ozone layer for fun.

Also on that note: There is NO HART building at Cape Canaveral. There is however several hundred armed and angry men.....and a detention facility. (It was very clean)

[Graywolves]

More like Rock Paper Scissors with a saving throw and 20sided die.



Don't ask.

hence the "win" scenario. if you don't give the kiddies their false feeling of being satisfied, the game will not be very populated.

And this is why I'm not sure we should attract the CoD crowd. I think we'll have enough players if we attract the slightly(read: very slightly) more mature Battlefield crowd.

I don't understand this. You do win. It's your base. Your empire control it's more of a victory than CoD or BF... Cause when they win... The map resets. Why do people keep acting like you can't win Planetside you take the base. You can take the continent it's now your empires continent. Again you just won. How can you say you don't win?

when you get better gear faster from owning a base and resources and you're apart of the wow generation, LOOT IS WINNING.

No, you are all wrong. PS is like sex, fun even alone, but even more fun with others! And lots of them...

Feel free to moderate if you want, but you all know I'm right.

From my brief experience on the BF3 forums for the beta they aren't any more mature.

It is all about percentage.

Aye and forum is not a good showcase. You may always be a troll on the forum board and yet a very formidable teamplayer game-wise.

Indeed. Just spent lunch lurking the official planetside forums... sad to see that it is still just as big a waste of time as it was at release. What worries me is those folks getting priority beta keys.

I think the point Higgles was trying to make is that combat is going to be faster. You all need to stop jumping on every comparison he makes like they are building a 1000-man-bunny-hopping-dolphin-diving-call-of-modern-battle-company fragfest.
