Hi all,
Recently I was thinking. What can be done to make the Planetside community even bigger, better and more established?
The way I see it is the community is small, very small. Not only due to the fact Planetside is so old, but also due to the fact of the kind of game it is. There isn't many community projects in a persistent world FPS MMO that we can all come together and enjoy. We can talk tactics and share a few videos, ideas and pictures. The main bulk of the active community is the outfits. And they tend to be very quiet about what they do outside of the game.
So my idea is this. To further strengthen the Planetside community I suggest that my site (witch will remain unnamed because I don't want this to be seen as an advertisement booo!!) will host some awards for community ideas, things that make the community and the game more established. Of course we can have some prizes for the winners.
Ideas on prizes?
Of course it will be up to the community to decide and not myself or any folks from my site. So any projects submitted will be added to the list and then the community can vote.
I really do believe the current PS community can become something far bigger. And offer more to the gamers, and offer more in the ways of entertainment (no I don't mean eSports). Currently there quite a few projects and big/small outfits out there that need some exposure. These are the backbone of the PS community outside of the game. I think bringing them all together and giving them all more exposure will take the community to the next level.
Feedback please?
Morto.
PS. The PS player base is about to get a whole lot bigger, I think we should prepare the community for it. And make the whole experience what it should of been first time round!
