6/9/03 Patch notes - Page 3

Most of this new patch are fixes for bugs. When are we going to get the NEW Contents? True.. it's hasn't been a complete month yet, but considering the game didn't come with much contents to begin with, anything new would be nice.

I'm happy about the fixes though. Hopefully the next patch will fix the LAG and LOCKUPS we keep getting. I'm tired of being killed because my MAX won't move. I actually logged into a base, but it was still showing the graphical loading screen. My character was actually IN THE GAME though and I could hear him being attacked and KILLED, even though I couldn't see him. Then the whole game just FROZE. How totally F.U. is that?

Thankfully this doesn't happen that often and hopefully some additional RAM will help solve some of these problems, but I think it's with the game itself.

Forgive me while i have a fanboy moment

WHAT DO YOU CALL ALL THE CONTINENTS? THE VEHICLES, THE WEAPONS THE ARMOR SKINS, THE PARTICLE EFFECTS, THE MECHANICS, THE PHYSICS AFFECTS THE NET CODE

Sorry needed to vent. Seriously this game has 100 times more content to it at launch then eq or uo did and yet people seem to be stuck in this "where's the rest of it" mentality. They have things in the works, more then even what they've disclosed i'm sure, patience is required here because this takes a lot more work then people suspect. Anyways it's not just directed at you but every similar post i've seen like this.

If your not satisfied witht he game in it's current form you have two choices, wait or quit. I personaly am having a blast so i'll wait, yes i want new items etc but i hadnt expected them yet.

The contents that is there are the basics. Of course you got your weapons, armor, vehicles, bases, implants, etc.., but the type of content I'm thinking about is the type that give you incentive to keep playing after you've captured that same base for the 1000 time. Right now the groundwork is in place for this game to expand into something great. There should be other things to do in this games besides forming squads and capturing bases over and over again. That's all that I'm saying. Every other MMO has an abundance of things to do to keep gamers business. Planetside definitely has the least amount of things to accomplish in a game. There is a difference between things you interact with and actually gameplay content.

Well that depends on how you look at content. I'm not disputing your claim, nor am i saying that i'd play planetside forever in it's current treadmill, but seriously you cant realy qualify the leveling "treadmill" or poorly scripted, go there camp a spawn for hours bring back his rare drop, quests as content. I'm just saying planetside has a lot of content beautiful wide open terran (we dont see a lot of it we spend so much time in bases but it's there) and a host of other features. The game is an entity it's evolving soon it will be bigger and better then ever we jsut have to be patient.
