Faction Defection

[Malorn]

When I first logged into PS1 in beta I did so as a VS.

Then a few days later I killed a TR, looted his cycler, and it was love at first sight. The incredibly OP striker added to that love, though the Prowler and MCG were a steaming pile of garbage at the time. I played most of the beta as TR and formed up my outfit from TR players.

At the end of beta, having not played NC I gave it a shot and absolutely loved the Vanguard and the Phoenix, and learned to tolerate the Guass (I still found the cycler the superior weapon)

I entered PS1 retail as NC and that was the vast majority of my serious gaming time.

I branched out and played some TR on Markov for shits and giggles and VS on Emerald for a change in pace.

Now for PS2 I am returning to TR, mostly because that's what the outfit I am in identifies most with. But a part of me always liked how I established the roots of everything I did in PS1 retail as TR. NC may have been where I did all my PS1 glory, but TR was my first love.

Remember that PS2 is a re-imagining of PS1, so I think its perfectly acceptable to re-think what empire you really like and re-imagine your own PlanetSide identity as well. It's been nearly a decade, personalities change, what you like changes.

But don't be switching post-launch. I think you can change your mind now, but once the game starts, you're all-in.
