Inter_empire Animosty, the best way to breed fun in PS

[MrVicchio]

While the foundations have been laid for this war, and that is the games objective... I think SOE should, in thier final marketing push towards launch, focus not so much on "What is Planetside" as much as "Why you, the TR Warrior should hate and despise the Vanu Purple Flamingos" (BTW just put whatever empire of your choice)


Why take THAT route you ask? Well, really, lets be 100% honest here, how far do "features" really get you? Thank you. Look at the most popular FPS out there, Counter-Strike. What drives most players, on a subconcious level? Not stats, but to kill those Fing T' Same thing for the Terrorist, kill the pig cops.

I think as players reach BR20, and the next patch for the game is 2 months out... you are going to see that RP element sustain them after the have flown all the A/C, Fired all the guns and driven all the vehicles.. its not gonna be those "features" that keep them comming back for more, but rather the intense desire to inflict pain on the "other" empires.
