All of them using Lashers, Maelstroms, Thumpers or grenades

1500 players on a map is pretty large. Espically compared to anyother game out there. And I'm sure over time this number can be increased.

Someone said thousands, I demand atleast 2k.

I'm sure they can get there. First step though is getting that many people in the game.

1500 people is going to be insane if that's true.

Isn't it a bit too much? Especially if they said that conts are going to be smaller, than in PS1?

thats crazy talk. there cant be too many players on a cont!

[Dorest0rm]

I suggest all those 1500 players gather in one place, and then mass OS it.
Wonder how the servers would do?

[FIREk]

I don't recall them saying the conts will be smaller than in PS1...

Even if the conts were similar or slightly smaller, keep in mind that:
1) Pop locks used to be (IIRC) 266 per side per continent and that was awesome,
2) In PS1 combat is centered around a few bases at a time - in PS2 we're likely to have a front line, so the population will be more spread out across the terrain,
3) More = better!

Like planetside ever had fights at more than 2 - 3 places on each continent at a time.
