As an old time player I already know which faction I prefer. But I thought about the one faction per server thing and a totally new player deciding to try out planetside , and having to choose .
I thought maybe it would be a good idea to start as a new TR recruit for all , get a feel for the mission system etc and then along your br1 you are given a covert mission to be a spy and infiltrate the NC and then the VS . This would allow you to get an idea of the how the different factions operated , a feel for their weapons, vehicles , command and so on.
At the end you could decide to stay TR , or be court martialled and executed . You would then respawn at the faction of choice area . The whole thing may take you (similar to the current training missions in PS1 ) from BR1 to 4 .
By 'passing' your recruit test , this would give you a reward or an unlock , the TR rewarding your loyalty , and the other factions you are a hero for rejecting the oppressive former master.
It would allow the back story and lore to be integrated into the first few steps on Auraxis , and any cinematics be incorporated into the whole scenario .
