Whats going on?

[half9]

Hello fellow PS players, I am Half9! If you beta the game or played with in the first 7 months of PS going live then you should remember me?

I was in open beta for PS, I played PS all day long never stoping once! After PS went live, I still kept up with it because it was so fun. But your proboly saying why I quite or not playing now ; well its because of my computer. I was playing PS on 256mb RAM, GeForce 2 32mb, Pent4 1.5ghz. But my family got a way better computer a year ago and I picked up on PS for a few months but quite do to money issues. Now x-mass is coming along and I allready know what Im getting.
1gb ram
Geforce 6800 256mb
pent4 3.4ghz
Do I need to say more? ( its a dell) And I want to play PS once more and be happy with it. But I been looking around the forums and to my surprisse it seems like PS is going to die. Like there is hardly anyone playing, I dont like the sound of that. I am a long time vet of PS, and I have many happy memories of PS, please say PS is not going to die!

**PS. I still have the 3CD that they sent you during open beta**

Oh PS is dieing. Mostly because the devs decided
to take the game in a direction no one wants,
and they add in retarded stuff

the developers are the reason

they dont do anything right
in m opinion

Yabbut that one wasn't triggered by the devs adding large killing machines.

And the release of numerous big-name titles which encroach on both the FPS and MMO niches which Planetside caters too of course have nothing to do with it, do they?

You mean when Core Combat originally came out?
Now they release core combat Tanks, and what ya know, another massive purge of players.

Your machine will be fine (save your parents a few bucks and put one together yourself!)

As for Planetside, not dead, but dying (fast). And being beaten with an ugly stick. Save your parents those 13 bucks too and find new interests. If the community won't ruin it, the devs will, and vice versa. Nasty cycle, very nasty.

[AztecWarrior]

Aye, 'tis the fate of all MMOs.

The only solution is a dev team made of people who won't bend to whiners yet will fix problems, and introduce new, balanced materials.

Of course, in reality, you get to pick two out of those three. In a good game.
