anyone else feel the same way?

personally i can wait. i have Deus Ex (yes, the original), Counter Strike, Battlefield, and i'm getting Dayz soon. but i am absolutely STOKED for PS2.

I am playing EVE and Smite atm to waste the time till 1) GW2 is getting released and 2) PS2 is inviting me to Beta/released

A few years ago I bought a combo pack of the original battlefield games from the bargain bin. Pretty sure I installed it once, but then shortly after I started using the Windows 7 beta instead of XP and forgot all about it. Anyhow, the other I figured I'd kill some time and try it (and my other old games) out. Let me tell ya, Battlefield's controls and "feel" sucks compared to Half-life/Quake3/Unreal (the originals). I played me some Half-life Blue Shift the other day too, much more my kind of FPS. I might play some Unreal 2 single player again... One day I'll finish that game!

Yup, You're definitely not alone in this.

To OP,

If you're looking for some large scale combat try out Forgotten Hope 2. They have a 130 player server running now. It's awesome.

PS2 has had zero impact on my rabid Binding of Isaac obsession. Er.. or Hat Fortress 2. PS is great and all but I've always played TF for the style and humor as well as the gameplay.

Mentlegen.

In the mood for teamplay rooty tooty point and shooty I just reinstalled Brink to discover there are less than 10 active servers left.

That is very depressing.

[exLupo]

Good god, I was -so- excited about Brink. And then I played it. Great movement mechanics but terrible map balance.

[Kipper]

I'm hoping (but pretty sure) that PS2 will offer the longevity that other shooters don't - I had some good laughs playing as a squad on Battlefield 2, 2142 and to a slightly lesser extent, BC2. Playing these games without a squad is only fun for so long, and people tend to get bored of them pretty quickly because of the rinse and repeat gameplay. Once you can't get a squad with people you know, playing becomes much less fun (for me).

Since PS1 was the game that held our group together the longest (now we mostly just play forums together as everyone is always off playing different stuff) but I know that everyone is stoked to play Planetside again, so I'm kinda hoping for a return to the good old days of social gaming but with everything that 2012 offers in terms of graphics and gameplay.

I have been playing EVE and Dayz.. keeping me entertained untill my priority key gets me into beta. Dayz is bad now though way to many hackers.

[soulsurfsublime]

Yeah Day Z is awesome for passing the time, probably the best mod ever made in my opinion. But it seems like 3 out of 10 players are using a script kiddie. A real shame because Day Z is incredible.

[scroogh]

It has killed my taste for just about any other fast paced fps. Everything else sticks really well for me though.

[Wandering Mania]

I have been playing Warhammer 40k - Dawn of War: Dark Crusade and Soulstorm With a bit of Skyrim in the mix. But yeah even those three (witch I love to no end) have been quite boreing as of late. Hurry up and get here round 2!

[JHendy]

I've been in a state of 'meh, that's kinda cool but meh' when it comes to games for the past 3 or 4 years. Planetside 2 is the first game I've been genuinely enthusiastic about since I was in my mid/late teens.

I am VERY excite.

I was excited about brink then it launched I bought it played it and felt violated by bethesda. The lack of any game content was the major contributer. 4 maps per side 4 upgrades per gun and 4 months extra of a wait to play what seemed like a beta. I lost alot of respect for bethesda with that one.
