*The bases don't seem to have well defined boundaries, but there is usually a cluster of points that are much closer to the center of the base than the rest.

Ditto to this. That was something I was kind of bummed out about initially when I saw some of the first PlanetSide 2 videos. I'm kind of hoping that maybe in the far distant future SoE could throw a retro continent in, featuring only classic styled bases. Having a well defined front line was pretty cool, it would create moments where you see waves of troops shooting and slowly pushing and advancing. Ah well.
