We are all TR.

There are just those citizens who do not follow the laws.

Malorn merely lost his way for a time.

All wayward soldiers find their way back home, one way or another.

I think it's weird how blatantly conservatives show their face in regard to their empire choice and their fanaticism towards it.

Yeah I also think things like it is what sets PS apart. I loved it in original PS and looking forward to it again

Vanu 4 Eva!!

Exactly what did I do to you to warrant that venom?

Not to mention, I just finished poking fun at George Bush in the other thread, lol

I actually wonder how many people like their empire based on its ideologies or its gameplay, i think i will play as TR (because i never played Planetside 1) because its ideologies sort of fit with me, and rapid fire means that i can suppress targets for my team to get into position, which in other games doesn't work so i hope it works in this game.

When I first started PS, I played each side, trying to see what I liked about them. One of the things that impressed me the most, was the sounds all around me when I played VS... There were things about all empires I liked, still do. However, when I play VS I love the way things sound... lancers everywhere, pulsars, mags, lashers...

Though I will give the nod to the one favorite sound of all, that always made me feel confident that we were not going to get steam rolled: The Starfire, damn I love that thing... Sometimes I like to pull up old youtubes and just listen to lancers and starfires... Some may hear a cacophony, I hear a symphony.

I have to agree, the lancer's noise is something that you just come to love about the weapon. Now that I think about it, that it's easy to tell what weapon is firing or which vehicle is nearby due to engine noise is a fantastic part of the game.

Me personally I think it is more of a play style, you will have "loyal players" or those who may be more on the role play side, and you will always have mercenaries. Those that fight for anyone and everyone. Granted fighting as a TR is deffrent thant fighting as a NC just like fighting VS is diffrent thatn fighting TR.

I would like to see a system that allows people to switch empires with their charachter but also have some rewards for the loyality aspect, but in the end it makes it the player's choice on how he wants to play.

Yeah I remember the sounds, the rattle of MCG lets you know exactly the TR is attacking in force. The NC with the Jackhammer and Guas Rifles makes it a distinctive sound from the TR.

Yeah, I basically don't talk to anyone in the majority of games I play, except this. Always on Ventrilo, or on Teamspeak, if I absolutely had to. But I hated Teamspeak.

My mates from school, who I haven't spoken to in a few years now, well, we've suddenly started speaking again . . . in the midst of the rebirth of Planetside.

I think part of that is the development of this whole world where you genuinely feel for your faction. A true testament to the devs for creating this in a video game, so many try and so few succeed.
