My planetside 2 vs dust514 gameplay video leave ur comments on youtube

[headcrab13]

I'll be playing Dust before PS2, because it will be released first and is sort of like a mini-PS2. Something to tide me over.

When PS2 releases though... let's just say I'm lining up an early retirement.

So very different games, it shouldn't be either or.

That said, if it has to be either or, Planetside 2 without a doubt.

Planetside because Planetside.

Cool vid. Dig the Zelda music. :P

PC master race does not approve of DUST being PS3 only.

[CrystalViolet]

with CCP announcing keyboard/mouse support, I might actually give it a shot. Speaking of dust, I should post a picture of my PS3, it's disgusting.

Dust 514 isn't max players is like 32....no?....LMAO

" Each War Room supports a maximum of 32 players at once."

"War Room" sounds like a pre-fight lobby. I think this means that each battle is either; 32 players if the War Room hold both teams, or 64 players if each War Room hold one team. Or my speculation could be completely wrong. Either way it is not gonna match up with the 400+ player planetside battles.

Even with 64 players the scale will be like BF3 game but some people claim thats is better because smallers team keep better competition level etc.. like sameller team are more competitive but this is very wrong !

A lots of people think thats games like MAG or planetside arent good because sometime u play with absolute idiots lol but it also happen in smallers games ive play Bf franchsie on PC and on console and sometime i get some idiots as well !

But planetside in my point of view due to the scales the players need a way more team work and skills to be able to survive and suceed Less players = less chance to be ambush = more predictable senarios etc...

But i would like to have ur comments on both games on every aspect not just on scales !

But for me both games shares a tons of identical idea and are similars in many way

Planetside is more like a real lifelike war in term of strategies and possibilitys

and dust seams to be a great games as well with average guns mechanics and great caracter custumisation skills advancement backstory etc..

but planetside 2 seams better in term of gunsplays and balisitc etc...

DONT FORGET TO POST A COMMENTS ON YOUTUBE !

Also, we need the footage of 100's of players fighting over a base in PS2 at the end of this video and be like "Checkmate."

Dust 514 has a bigger world and CCP plans to have larger servers (after some development) than Planetside.

However CCP is brand-new to FPSs and based on their alpha footage it really seems like they've screwed up their FPS mechanics.

[SKYeXile]

Does anybody care how big the larger world of EVE/dust is if you dont get to see any of it...or if you do...you're right clicking your way to victory?

[Skitrel]

This is like comparing wine with steak, they're COMPLETELY different things, Dust is a round based game of 64 players however it wants to masquerade as an mmo, Planetside is a persistent none round based game that never ends with thousands of players.

Why on earth is there even a comparison being drawn? I wouldn't compare Planetside to CoD, Battlefield or Halo, I wouldn't compare World Rally to Formula 1. I wouldn't compare wine with steak.

Stop fishing for youtube views on a mashup of footage of both games with absolutely nothing of value added.

I was the CEO of PlanetSide's "corp" in EVE Online, as some on here may remember.

You'll see I'm still sporting an EVE signature from one of my other corps I was in for a while.

I've always been a huge fan of PlanetSide and EVE, and thus I've felt very torn when it comes to DUST 514 and PlanetSide 2.

Similarities:
Free-to-play with vanity items store
Larger than normal scale combat (compared to most match-based FPS).
Sci-fi theme
Established universe
Air, Vehicular, and Infantry combat
One / few hosted shards that everyone plays on
Similar combat roles available for soldiers
Similar specialization / equip system

Differences:
DUST 514 is PS3 exclusive, PS2 is for PC
PS2 is much larger in scale, in terms of players and size
DUST 514 matches are "winnable", PS2 is persistent
PS2 contains a bit more variety in terms of equipment and tactics (from what we can determine).

I think both games are great from what I can see. I don't think they step on eachother's toes too much due to being on different platforms. I love the EVE universe, and I love the PlanetSide universe. This is going to be a very good year for me.

Well, it exists within an MMO universe (EVE-Online) that can directly interact with it and influence the battle... I don't really see that as masquerading.

PS - Before anyone flames me as an EVE fan, I guarantee I have more posts on this forum excepting Hamma than anyone on this thread (I'm a long-time vet), and I've met Hamma (and friends) as well as the original PS devs (including T-Ray) in person, plus rode on rollercoasters with them. I think I can safely say I've got pretty good perspective here.
