After a few hours of festivities courtesy of the PS1 hardcore group, my ideal July 1st goes like this:
1. Devs transport all players to one of the sanctuaries without warning.
2. After 5 minutes of everybody going WTF!!, all spawns get disabled and an Orbital Strike kill's everyone in one shot, with the name on the OS being "Planetside 2".
3. An announcement, "Dear Planetside citizens and warmongers, the Gemini server will be shut down for forever in 5 minutes."
4. After a short wait, just to build tension, another announcement, "The Planetside 2 beta server is live, please go download the client and enjoy - Love SOE and the PS2 Development team."
That would be the best day evar!
It would be really cool if they could make the OS charge up slowly over the whole five min, but I wouldn't expect them to spend time on something like that though. Kinda like one last epic Orbital Strike. The end of days OS.
Whats your ideal July 1st look like?
