Angry I give this game one more week


Planetside is not good enough a game for people to put up with such unstable servers and bad lag. I'm running a high end PC with 1.5mb down/250kb up DSL and still get the "You have left our world" disconnect every 15 min or so, and quite often it just crashes and several times I've had to reboot. No one is going to pay to put up with such non-sense! And no, "Its only been a while since release" is NOT an excuse, I paid $50 for this game. If they knew there was going to be this much problems, they should have stayed in beta. This game is basically a Tribes clone with bigger maps, and there are sooo many alternatives. I've already cancelled my subscription and I'm going to log in one more time a week from now, if the problem isn't fixed I quit.

I get booted maybe once every couple hours. That's pretty much par for the MMORPG course, I think...

Can't vote on those choices because I honestly don't have the problem.

I play about 80% on Werner, 20% Konreid (I'm in the UK) and I might get disconnected or crash once or twice in an evening. Annoying, but pretty much par for the course with a MMPOG. It can get laggy when things get very busy.. but again that's no different from any other game with similar player numbers.

You're assuming that everyone is having the same problem you are. My connection to planetside is rock solid, even to Emerald when it is three yellows in.

Indeed, if you are really getting booted from the world every 15 minutes or so - and you have a Linksys router - that could very well be the problem. Solution: update the firmware at the linksys website. When I first started playing in Beta I would get disconnected like clockwork every 13 minutes or so ... after updating the firmware for the router the problem was solved.

OMG what was your name again? nevermind STFU


Wow look another recruit trashing the game. The defense submits exibit A:

THIS IS A PLANETSIDE FANSITE.

The owner maintainers and regulars of this site are such huge of this game that they come here to post fiction, bug reports, suggestions, annecdotes and strategy. A few small minded retartds like yourself feel the need to rag on it. No one will deny this game has issues but the overwhelming majority of us feel that the game is worth playing, otherwise we whouldnt be here.

TAKE HIGHSCHOOL SCIENCE

If your gonna post a poll make sure you follow the rules for sfcientific research and have basic common sense, try not to make your poll overly slanted just like most of the similar fucktards who have posted polls just yours.

Try and look for remedies and do research.

Most of the outstanding gameplay issues have been covered on
here. it doesnt bother me so much when people post bug reports that have been posted but when a wanker comes on and says "IM HAVING THE PROBLEM AND SOE DIDNT DRIVE OUT TO MY HOUSE AND BRING ME PIZZA TO FIX IT I"M NOT PLAYING NO MORE" SOE cares very little and I care even less.

/rant off

Edit: A glaring spelling error and some gramatics but not much because i dont fcare

I dunno what all the fuss is about. I play for hours and hours on the Emerald server, and only get actually disconnected once every few days... The lag has been better lately as well. It was worse about a week ago, but still tolerable. I'm just not having the kind of lag and disconnection problems that you guys are having....
