Aww don't be so cynical. The story lays the foundation of the game. It's like building a house. Nobody sees the concrete foundation, but you can't have all the cool features in a house without the foundation.
To people new to the Planetside universe (hmmm that's catchy) this will help lay the ground work for the answer to "wtf is planetside?" And for us veterans, it's cool to add depth to the reimagining of the Planetside universe (damn that really is catchy, I should coin that)
Basically, get the story out of the way first so you can spend the rest of the time focused on gameplay. Or as you put it, eat the salad course before the main course.
