Right, We need to get to work on a publicity plan

[SArais]

I don't care how you do it, we need to show people that planetside refuses to just lay down and die.

Tell your friends, tell your enemys, tell whoever you can, youtuber, gaming news site, whatever.

I see new and old faces every day. SOE refuses to tell people this is free now. Let's make sure word goes out.

We will look in the face of death and we will laugh in it.

We will look at the hackers and we will deny them their satisfaction of them trying to kill the game.

We will try our best to drag people kicking and screaming from planetside 2, and put them where they belong in Planetside 1.

We will not go out with a whimper, but we will go out with a bang.

well soe fan faire is coming just make a roit at ps2 booth

[SArais]

We could do a couple of movies prehaps.

I went on Planetside 2's post about old Hossin, 95% of commends said PS1 was still better, so where are they? I posed a link saying it was free on the top 20 posts.

Sad but I cant be bothered to play unless some big clans get hundreds back

[CascadeBro]

So many outfits have made awesome recruitment trailers. If someone could combine the best bits of all of these into one 'Join Planetside 2 - It's free' fan made promo that would help

[Figment]

As long as PS1 is bugged with ridiculous bugs that didn't use to be in and there will be hackers (and there will be), people are just reminded of how annoying SOE has been to the PS1 community.

I'm sad.

[Baneblade]

SOE killed PS1, not the players. We can roll necromancers all we want, but in the end it is still a dead thing pretending to be alive so long as SOE allows it to remain so.

Also tell people not to play NC so we can have non braindead players. (it will be better for this game with what little life it has left)

[Figment]

Yes, the same player on another empire will surely bring alive their tactical skill.

These tosspots running the show at SOE really should consider one of two options here if they give any damn about their reputation at all:

Either sort out the bugs and assign some intern or the janitor or smeds dog to moderate the game, or release the source code.

SOE is not going to make any single dime from this code anymore, so this would simply be some work to get it done but a crapton of positive pr and happy ps1 vets that might have some of their faith in the company restored by such a move.
Letting an MMO run completely unmoderated however looks completely unprofessional and can just be considered as a cruel joke at this point by any player left, especially when this is a major studio handling things so piss poorly.

So a tad little inconvience and work to do what i thought would be in the best interest of SOE anyways, namely appearing less like a "weyland yutani" kind of company whos upper management is controlled by brain parasites with a degree in marketing and research.
But i guess that would be a bit too much to ask.

There is only one thing i really don't understand here: Why are they letting PS1 run like someone is pulling a "weekend at bernie's" with its corpse? There is nothing to be gained here, it's just creating frustration for anyone involved.
