You know i used to think this time to time, but last night made me realize wut this game was about. As i recently merged my small 40 person outfit into 7th Legion, which is now 16th i points i believe on emerald with 105 members or something, I realized that their outfit is A WHOLE LOT MORE organized and theres always someone to play with. Plus now that i have a microphone and teamspeak, It's even better. Last night we had 2 squads working together, i was leading one, since im a platoon leader and another platoon leader was leading the other, with the leader of the outfit controlling the overall "training exercise". Wut we were doing was practicing working in harmony and taking orders and responding and using discipline etc, and altho it sounds boring, that was the most fun i've had in planetside i believe. Instead of mindless killing, I found that altho i only killed maybe 40 people that night, the aspect of giving my squadmates orders, receiving objectives from our leader as simple as escort the ANT from base to gate then to base, and as complex as squad 1 send half ur members to engage enemy in courtyard while other half infiltrates backdoor and squad two protect the AMS and provide cover fire, was thrilling and made the game seem like it had a point. For all who care we were on from about 8-11 doing our operation on searhus. We started with 2 bases, and at 11 we had locked it down. So all i can say is get in a good outfit, and have fun working together with them, becuz altho planetside's main thing is "massively online FPS" its other main thing is teamwork and how its crucial if u wanna succeed.
