Re: Get rid of the New Motto, bring back the old


The old motto was always a bit 'meh', the new one speak more to the angle SPE want to push with PS2 especially in relation to BF, Modern Warfare, namely size really does make a difference - and what's more it really does.

Size always matters is all about the Scales of planetside 2 even planetside 1 was a skirmish game compare to planetside 2 we talk about 2000 players not 300 !

And this motto is about the scales of the game only to show people thas planetside is about Massive scales !

because for most people shooters are shooters no matter whats and people must understand thats the only way to experience a scales like this is in planetside 2

So SIze always matter fit perfectly in thats marketing optic !

For land for power forever do not make a huge point of the scales and its more confusing for new people to the franchise !

Anyway my own Motto is »» Failure is not an option ««« and the old ps1 motto is also true for planetside 2 but the marketing is mostly around the scales and it must be thats way ! For now

With a motto like "Massive Three Ways" we could easily get the internet porn crowd.

I kind of like it quite honestly. It emphasizes the... well, the size that is PlanetSide. Nuff said!

I like the new one, especially because of the sexual reference. Keep it!
(they'll keep it anyways coz it must have cost them millions of dollar in market studies)

Calling CoD players noobs and dumb doesn't really make you bright or good at games....
U just hate when people generalize.....

Yes, Stew... that's the whole joke about it...

I'd prefer "Size does matter." over "Size always matters."

Simply sounds better and seems more logical. Size wouldn't matter in every game at any time. It does however in an MMO.

They shouldn't exaggerate it though. Maybe in 2 few more teasers, and that's it then.

It's still funny now, but not for long.

For Land. For Power. Forever. And Ever After.

I really like the last line, kinda gives a hint that it's a sequel. (Yeah, yeah, reimagining, not sequel, I know)

Re: Get rid of the New Motto, bring back the old


"For Land. For Power. Forever." was a great tagline for Planetside 1. It emphasized the strongest, most unique point about Planetside at the time, in the market it emerged from. Persistence was a big deal, and nobody else really had it in a PvP environment.

Persistent PvP doesn't stand out as much anymore, since there are other games that offer it. EVE, Pirates of the Burning Sea, Perpetuum Online, even Global Agenda can be argued to have it.

"Size. Always. Matters.", on the other hand, definitely highlights Planetside 2's stunning achievement. The biggest PvP game from a "size of battles" perspective I can think of are things like Battlefield or Pirates of the Burning Sea, which support on the order of 25-50ish players per side. And Planetside 2 blows that away by an order of magnitude. That's significant. That stands out. And you should highlight your strengths when marketing.
