PlanetSide-Con

[Squeeky]

I got to thinking and this is what i came up with....

Do you think, if the game is a success, in the future (maybe 9-12 months from release) a PlanetSide convention will happen, Everyone gets together and just does stuff in real life hanging out with your battle buddies, i think its a possibility, maybe not on such a large scale, but maybe. Do you think the dev's would organize, a fansite (maybe PSU) who knows, Do you think you and your clan (or anyone from your PS clan) will organize a meeting in real life? im hoping something like this happens for CDL, if not the whole community, post your thoughts

SoE does it for EQ, so if PS amasses a huge following then Im sure they will host Fanfairs all over the place.

We're in good hands

Hey, you could go up to a guy, and say "Hey, you're the guy who saved my butt in that big attack on the NC base, thanks!" And he'll say "Who the heck are you?"....

I need help.

*Pictures what would happen if the EQ convention was ever held at the 'Excalibur' hotel and casino of Las Vegas. EQ fanatics carrying sticks beating up the doormen, taking their platemail, and parading around asking where the next big monster is spawning...*
...
*Pictures a whole lotta guys parading around the Stratosphere hotel and casino wearing armor made of cardboard and plastic, carrying toy guns*
...

then screams " you shot me in my buttox!"

[Fire_Monkey]

I think a convention would be a great idea, seeing all you old people would be scary though Good idea Squeekster! Fellow young'un

[dukeacem]

I definately think it will happen if the game is good (or even if it's bad). We have them for ww2ol still! There will probably be PS conventions all over and most anyone who wants to go will be able.

Yeah and likely beating the shit out of each other, screaming "I PWN JOO!" since these are FPS players afterall.

T2 was a bad game... But ppl love it and they have Cons all the time. So i thinks its for sure there will be PS Cons.

I'm also betting on PSTV and live shoutcasting.

"Hi, this is Nota Gamre, reporting live from Las Vegas, concerning the state of the second Annual Planetside Convention. can you hear me Dan?"
"Yes, we can. so tell us, what on earh is going on out there?"
"Well, someone managed to spike all the drinks with trace ammounts of LSD."
"What kind of effects seem to be happening?"
"The gamers here have become extremely delusional, wearing plastic toy armor of three color schemes and carrying around a lot of paintball guns. then they took over the concession stands and market booths by paintballing their occupants and pointing PDAs at the cash registers. now they seem determined to take over each other's stands. many are shouting that they want to know where the vehicle facility is because infantry wars are 'ghetto'. several areas have a high concentrartion of certain colors of armor, and they call them sanctuaries. as the police fear that if they come in they will unite to repel the officers, we can only hope that the LSD wears off soon."
"HEY, LOOK! HES WEARING A BLACK SUIT! AN INFILTRAITOR! GET HIM! FREEEEDOM FROM OPPRESSION!!!"
"Oh #$%^!!!"
