Planetside 2

[Mydis]

List anything you would have liked to see from PS but is impossible because of engine limits, or just because it is to late to implement:

Mic support is a must.

Something similar to a shadowbane with guns, where factions are formed by the players and they build thier own bases.

A real economy with resource and money.

More specific classes (you are a medic/tank driver/hacker not a medic+tankdriver+hacker)

Multiple planets with galactic battles as well.

Naval battles.

NPC civilians that require housing and protection. Make-up of polotics

...Alot of what SWG should have been.

Get the idea?

[Jimbo]

I'll let you know in six months after I see what the current game is like.

Although, I don't think mic support is a must. There are so many other programs out there for that kind of thing that it really is unnecessary to put in the game.

Also, I don't think an economy is needed either. If I wanted to earn money, I'd play any of the RPG's out there. This is, of course, a FPS after all.

Anything you might want for Planetside 2, can and might be implemented in Planetside 1. That's part of what we are paying a subscription fee for.

HITZONES!!


NO LAG!!


OCEAN WARS!!!

[Terik]

There are no classes in this game and I hope there never will be, I'm fine with the current certification system.

[Seer]

I can't say I'd like to see multiple planets and space battles. The "planets" in SWG are something like 11x11 km, and the "continents" in planetside are 8x8 km. Ice Planet, Ice Continent... eh. Space battles would take people away from the ground action, and economies would stratify the playerbase--that violates the design concept.

If PS is anything like EQ, there won't be a sequel for at least 5 years! Why don't we talk about what we'd like to see in a PS expansion?

[Deadlock]

i dont ever want money to be implemented into ps... unless it doesnt apply to guns and ammo. maybe just for extra little crap like decals for ur uniform. but thats almost pointless so dont even bother.

i think infiltrators should be allowed a special implant just for them that lets them listen in on what the other team is saying.
but then limit them to maybe only two implants or something to balance it out.

i think in certain areas the bolt driver should be allowed headshots... like some terans made for actual sniping combat with no mans land kind of areas. they could put signs up saying now entering no mans land and ud know to get down

that brings me to the only other thing i could think of that would improve this great game... prone position... but only really nessissary with my last suggestion.

[Tieom]

Hmm...
I'd like custom logos (Both outfit and otherwise). Personally, I think more logos are gonna be a given in at least one patch...
Hitzones for the head, for the boltdriver only.
Hitzones for the back, for the knife only.
Empire specific aircraft.
Changeable vehicle weapons.

There is a reason this is called PLANETSIDE it meanst the people where marroned PLANETSIDE. Which means they can't get off the planet, by adding space battles and other planets you make the game way to large and everyone will be spread out. I agree naval battles would be kool but i doubt it's going to happen. Beacuase of the fact you need to zone to get to continent to continent. Naval Battles will also screw up continent lock. Whats to stop people from doing a Normandy landing on the beach?? You're all thinking that's the point it would be kool. NO it wouldn't cuz this is not a World War 2 game. The Devs meant to make it hard to take over a continent and to retake one by adding a navy it makes it rather pointless to use HARTS to drop onto a continent.
Whats wrong with the class system how it is??? It allows for diversity in the game, this isn't Tribes. Why don't we actually wait for the game to come out, then actually play the game before deciding we don't like it.

[Prowler]

Lets not jump ahead to far now.

[Mydis]

I never said anything was wrong with the game.

It just isnt as good as it could be with a limitless engine.

[Cyanide]

There's no such thing as a limitless engine. All engines have limits because your computing resources are limited. Yes, even a Beowolf cluster has limited processing power.

That said, there are somethings id like to see, hopefully in this game or some time before planetside 2.

1. Hitzones, even if it's only head and body.

2. Navel units. Like a naval artillery gun, AA vessel, and a small submarine maybe. An amphibious tank would be sweet too. Not like a hover craft, one that is submersable. If you've ever played Total Annihilation you know what i'm talking about.

3. Destructable building sections. Not completely destructable buildings, just piece of the building are destructable. Like if you strafe a wall with your assault rifle it blows chunks out of the wall or pillar or whatever. This is purley astetic though.

4. Mech units. Not like the max, like mechwarrior style mechs.

5. Race specific aircraft

6. I'm not sure if this is implimented but it would be nice to be able to roll your aircraft. In Tribes2, which people have said uses a similar flying style, you could not roll your aircraft. They could pitch and yaw, but no roll. This makes it exceedingly difficult to avoid AA missles and such. Plus it allows for much more skill involvement in flying a combat aircraft well.

That's about all i can think of. like i said, it'd be nice to see that stuff in an expansion or patch instead of 5 years from now in PS2.

You're retarded, mech units and destructable buildings? This isn't mech assault, do you have any idea how unbalanced this game would be with mechs? You my good sir are a dumbass. And barrel rolls? Wtf are you thinking? Air is hard enough to hit as it is, allowing planes to dodge missiles is idiotic.
And naval battles? Wtf? They've said this like 10 times ont he forums, they cant exist due to it doesn't make any sense with the story. Plus the game is designed to have seperate continents, to add in ocean around the continents would either take hundreds of hours of coding or completely throwing out the coding they have now and producing new coding.

back off with the flamin fucktard. its just his opinion.

[Venoxile]

If he didn't want his opinion being flamed he shouldn't have posted it, lol. jk, i just think that none of that could ever be possible but i do agree with his hit zones opinion.
