My idea is based on the fact that in many games it takes a long time to get good at driving a particular vehicle, you crash and can't get any kills and in general let people down on your team until you get better.
For example in Battlefield 3 it took me along time to get good at flying a jet or helicopter, I crashed and accidentally killed my team mates multiply times before getting good. In Planetside 2 I don't think that should have to happen. In a Q&A session the developers said that they want people not to just play in every vehicle, they want people to specialize in a particular vehicle and be very good at it, but people aren't going to get good at a particular vehicle unless the can practice. Outfits aren't going to want a Galaxy driver that crashes all the time because they're not experienced enough, but then that driver is not going to get more experienced without letting people down. So why not make it much easier? If planetside 2 had a single player vehicle simulator players wouldn't have to go through all of that, they can simply practice driving their particular vehicle until they get better, this would let players get to know the controls so they don't crash with 30 people in their Galaxy. The simulator should just be a small area where the player can spawn a vehicle, learn the controls, then practice driving it. I think some sort of tutorial and tips could be useful as well. I'd like to be a Galaxy driver in an outfit but I don't want to waste the resources of a faction, let other players down, and crash with lots of players in it hundreds of times. |

Agreed but nothing too OTT needed. A shooting range, and an open area with a vehicle course, and an bombing area would be all I'd need.
It would potentially be a nice little extra if you could take a squad in there to do a couple of practice 'live fire' exercises - but probably not a good idea as we want pops on the continents, not in their own instances. |

the developers said the game will be COMPLETELY multiplayer with no singleplayer mode, but they, if they've already thought of this, could have some sort of training ground in one of the hexes for each faction which could have tutorials on different vehicles and weapons (I actually think this would work better than my original idea).
hopefully they've already thought of this, it was the first thing i thought of when they said they wanted people to have a specialty in a particular vehicle rather than being an all rounder. |

wow some of you guys are new to the franchise. They had this in PS1. It was Virtual Reality center you could fire every weapon, drive all vehicles and fly all aircraft. But, there was a problem. People weren't coming out to the battle field. They stood around in a place called sanctuary chatting, trolling, whatever etc.. It made game play slow paced. Now I've not played beta, but at the warpgate you can take a vehicle out for a test drive without fear of being attacked provided your faction has the resources. This only going to be a concern in the beginning because the majority of us will be like wtf does this button do? ..lol doh! Anyhow...
Check this link http://planetside.station.sony.com/howto/ You'll see everything every body damn near wants in the whole idea vault. Its actually funny seeing all the repetitive requests. It tells you how closely they listen to the community for sure. Though...it makes you wonder why they didn't listen for starwars galaxy. Man I miss that game prior to the changes. cya all in-game Last edited by Ipimpnoobs; 2012-08-26 at 05:03 AM. |
