Official server side outfit support

[berzerkerking]

Although Planetside 2 encourages players to form outfits and guilds. I noticed that there is no official system to keep track of the number of guilds in game at a time. I suggest a server supported database for guild registry. This would allow guilds to post a page for information, and a link to any website they may have, and allow new player to search for them directly, as well as allow outfits to pool their cash to make it available to an outfit leader to distribute and spend on vehicles or possible outfit specific camos.
Tell me what you think, and hopefully this will be addressed herehttp://www.planetside-universe.com/p-agn-tv-94.htm) on Saturday if one of the more prominent figures such as Zekken or Hamma brings it up

YOU'RE a stupid idea or something :-P. I JK of course


Basically, you have a good idea. This isn't so much a situation of the pot calling the kettle black, but more like the pot saying "Hey I've got an idea, why don't we paint the kettle black!" The response, to which, of course, would be: "It's already black..."


Edit: Thought I would further clarify that I'm not tryin to be a dick .

This is something we haven't seen YET, but it was basically in PS1, there were no issues with it, it's going to be in PS2.


Also, they haven't been very clear about this in some cases: Outfits ARE guilds; and try to refrain from using the word "guild." This isn't WoW.

Not to mention the "guild" hardly fits in other games either.

"A group of tradespeople made up of merchants, craftspeople, or artisans, particularly in the Middle Ages" - how does that translate to group of friends grouping up under same color banner, so to speak.


Really wish they'd open up on what to expect from outfits&command chain. Because I do hope there's list of outfits with option to show which kind of things they specialize to. I'd think that'd make it so much easier for new players to find place for themselves - aswell as give commanders better view of what kind of troops they have at their disposal.

I would appreciate it if you could give me a link to an explanation of how the outfit system worked in planetside 1. BTW I don't play mmorpgs ever since LOCO
