I read the whole first page of this thread and I can not tell wtf it is about.

How can the OP restate that gibberish twice and still manage to make it a muddled mess.

What happened to that thread with "Herp" "Derp" and "Pancakes" as options in a poll? That was awesome.

On-topic, I never played Planetside. (I swear to god I have said that in over 50% of my posts, maybe I should just sig "DISCLAIMER: Did not play Planetside) Here's my opinion, as a non-Planetside player.

I don't want a copy and paste of Planetside 1. I don't believe anyone does. If they did, they wouldn't give a damn about Planetside 2 because they'd still be playing Planetside 1.

I also don't want a copy and paste of a modern shooter. Take what would make the game better, don't take stuff that would drag the game down.

I'm glad they've got the shooting mechanics of a modern shooter, because I really enjoy them (2142 is one of my favorite games, and it has similar shooting to this game from what I've seen). That doesn't mean we need everything from a modern shooter, though, because some things in modern shooters wouldn't really work that well in Planetside IMO.

TL;DR: No one want's a copy and paste of Planetside 1. No one wants Call Of Battlefield Online, either. We want a damn fun Planetside game with modern elements. Or at least, I do.

And im not just talking about surge nerf, that was broken, but i dont know about going out of my way making videos about it, spreading alot of BS about it saying its amplified like heaps in a real environment...discounting the fact he's shooting...? at a agile surging with his weapon holstered while deliberately missing shots because he's holding down the fucking trigger and not even aiming.

this is the crap i was talking about a month ago when I posted about it, the guy cried about every damn thing you can think of and we argued the whole time that he was wrong,so when TB and all the other whiners got their way, the game keep sinking and then I get that PM I posted from TB telling me that we were right about what would happen, this after he cranked out all the shit listed above(10k posts,etc..).

and don't think for a damn minute i don't recognize a bunch of the other whiners that are posting on PSU,these ppl will cry about nerfing everything that kills them.

Isn't it amazing how easily you can spot those people? I can just picture that PS1 general discussion board on the old forums in my head....uhhg.

although if they "did" copy ps1 and just updated it i would still play the hell out of it

On this i have to say , Bf3 crysis and cod are all different games , different pace different gameplay option different balistic nowhere near each others

Any experience gamers will claim the same

I dont like cod i found this franchise noob friendly the hitbox is irrevelant it take almost the same shot in the legs than in the face to kill some body

crysis have the armor option tou can climp on the edje of the structure you can make some power moove like kick cars etc.. you can also cloak urself agains tons of gameplay mechanics who as nothing to do with each others

Bf3 as outrageous recoils and bullets spread mechanics etc..etc.etc..

All 3 are different games in terms of options and gameplay mechanics available !

It's one of those things holding back the evolution of PC gaming in particular, which could have been miles further years ago.

In fps game you dont have many choices you said eveyones stick with the same formula ? i remember all game were back in the day Doom / Quake like clones because at this time it was the best formula after this is was mostly a halflife clones and so on !

But when you talk about guns been able to aim down the sight having hip fire mechanics also having red dots different atachements to change certain value and custumize your guns are up the the standard

Only few games like nexuiz go back with a cetain (( retro gameplay )) with better graphics but i think modern mechanics work better for planetside 2 and the dev team as think the same !

Iron sights and BLOODY SCREEN SO REAL are the only things I see related CoD... Capture points and vehicles are the only things I see related to BF...

Gamers these days are suffering from what I call "CoDification phobia".

Agree its like saying cod, BF3 , cruysis are anywhere near eachother lol people have never played these to say such thing lol

Oh, you'd be correct in your assumptions. It was pretty bad!

We do not want a copypasta Planetside 1, but we don't want Generic Modern Shooter: MMO Edition either... this includes a preference for mechanics that encourage dueling over ganking and a general preference for macro level strategy meaning something.

GMS mechanics are not good because they're newer, they're just the only thing that anyone has access to.

whats will you want ill be interested to see How awesome will be your NON generics FPS mechanics ? what will you do as a game designers ?

You will take back the cross air and hip fire ?

you will remmove iron sigth and scopes ?

you will make everyones having 10k health ?

how this could be better than (( generic modern shooters ? ))


In my opinion its not because you have solid shooter mechanics with better and more immersice standard means your all the same i will name few very different modern shooters ...


COD = arcade fps game with PEWPEW guns who kill anyones whith legs shot
BF3 = semi arcade game with recoils bullets spread and very polish caracter moovement
Crysis = Sweet spot between realistic and futuristic gameplay featuring Nano armor , cloak , themal vision , power moove , sliding etc..
FEAR 2 = ninja kick sliding kick
ARMA = HArd core realistic simulation game
Operation flashpoint elite dragon rising/redriver = simulation game

All these games just to name a few have the modern shooter mechanics such as hip fire + sigth view + diferent sight view These games all share the same modern mechanics But none of them feel the same when you played most people who like BF3 hate cod most of those who love COD hate all the others Some love both some prefere crysis over BF or Cod or OFPE or arma

etc...

non of those game feel the same but share decent and solid FPS modern mechanics !

If you mean nerfing this kind of thing they were probably rigth their is a difference beetween asking for balanced and crying on everything in everygames their is few thing who are broken and exploits by little kids who enjoys easy kills

Like the dart or the Usas 12 shotguns was by far the worst pain in the ... ever when people start to use them it force you to use them as well and the game become battleof shotguns instead of battlefield

I love many things they are doing. But not sure about a low TTK. We will see about that in beta.

It's like the triple shot from the Jack Hammer. :P
