Vehicle Play and Infanty

capiqu · 2013-01-02, 12:56 AM

Too much Vehicle spawn camping in this game. Especially by OP Mags, Scythe's
and Liberators. All buildings are too opened and infantry really has no cover especially from Liberators and Scyhes's . I don't know what the best solution could be for this but it has me really frustrated.
I always wondered how players from other shooters would feel about
Planetside's vehicle play. If they feel anything like I do about all this vehicle camping then that's a lot of players to loose. I just hope this is corrected before too many people are turned off.

This from a concerned loyal Planetside player since 2003.

I'm waiting with baited breath for Smedly's state of the game address on the future of PS2 supposedly coming out soon and to see if he just puts in white wash generalities or cold hard facts.
I hope to hear/see a section on the overhaul of base design because once you get past all the whine post on the official forums the most popular and constructive that I can see are about the issue of vehicle spam and infantry game play and how they detract from tactical side of the game and also sap out the fun for a lot of people.

You know I like to beat a drum over issues but be for warned Mr Smedly

no discussion on this topic will result in me calling for reinforcements

bring on the noise

Think they need to do more about the tactical side of the game tbh. Its not just vehicle spam that affects this its the map design. They need to bring in some more benefits maybe even some kind of more advanced lattice system to compliment the territory control. Territory needs to be fought over for a die hard reason, for the empire. Not just to farm some kills cos its better than most places to farm.
