There are many things I miss about Planetside, but for me always a great few memories stuck out. Such as many bridge battles, Gen holds, base caps, and running with Band of Bros. But the great few always stayed on top, and to beg the question of everyone's most memorable moments of the better years (that statement makes me feel old) I would like to sahre mine with you all.
Obviously my last base cap turning me into a CR5 with the numerous amount of lasher balls being shot at me was something I can never forget but I have always felt that when I was a lowbie trying to make a name for myself was my most distinct memory. It all started with a huge base stronghold that the VS (us) were fighting off the NC, winding us down to very low Nanite levels. I took it upon myself to gear up with a sh*tload of repair ammo, and Lancer into my ANT and make the long journey towards the warpgate. The trip there I encountered 2 mosquitos which I quickly silenced with my amazingly awesome AV weapon. I continued into the warp bubble where I then proceeded to fill my vehicle and repair to full. As both finished I was faced with two lightnings, reaver, and ATV team. I called in support from my outfit to take care of the reaver and started on my way being pelted from both lightnings and ATV team. Thank god I was so maneuverable in that sh*tty vehicle; the armor that they wore away dropped me to 1/4 of full health as I reached the base. Support rained down from friendlies in the base as I gloriously barreled my way in front of the energy collector. I deployed my ANT and began repairing it; the collector was half-full as I heard the screech of an Orbital Strike going off, I ran to the safety of a stairwell and received this message:
It was our last base on the continent, and that last ANT of mine gave us the advantage to push back through the lines continuing to our victory, and greatest of all I was recognized by all who were fighting there that day, indulging me in my own 15 minutes of fame.
I ask of you, what is
your most memorable moment in Planetside?
