Ahh, the wait

So, I personally have been following PS for like 2 years. Now we are finally in "The year of PlanetSide" and I personally am excited as hell.

How long has everyone been following the game?

on and off since it was announced, but around the time Beta Apps were open was when I got hardcore.. this wait on the Beta Emails is FREAKING killing me... sigh.. I just wish we knew when so i could get over my inbox-opening phobia...

Well, I found out about the game in around march of last year and didnt fallow it much through the summer because the release date was so far away. Then in september I looked it up again and found official site and forums to chat on. The game had grown so much it caught my attension and I've fallowed it since then. It is very exiting getting so close to release, especially with the ads I see and pre-order already. I just hope more and more people find this game everyday because every gamer should realize that this isn't your ordinary FPS. The only way this game could flop is if the word doesn't get out, but maybe I'm just ignorant to the amout of people already waiting to buy it.

I first saw info about the game about 6 months ago and started following it 2 weeks ago

Last febuary, PC gamer. Jeez it looked like crap back then. It's amazing to see how far this game has come.

I read about it when it was first announced. Was just some obscure game back then which looked interesting, but not interesting enough to actively follow. Now that I've read more, though, it looks like it may be the FPS game that I wished WW2OL would have beem.

couple weeks now.

Squeeky · 2003-01-16, 08:06 PM

4-5 months

I've knonw about it for a year or so but if a game is that far away I try to not follow it. Gets annoying to wait like that. I started really getting into about...5 months ago.

I got way too excited about this game way too early, and my hopes were crushed when I realized that it was a looong way off. So I went away and forgot about it until a couple of months ago, when I saw some new screenshots. Now I've bought a new machine way over the sysreqs and am just chomping at the bit to get in.

I found PS when Dave Georgeson announced as their producer on PlanetTribes. I've been a rabid fan-boy ever since. 30 years old, and still a fan-boy. *sigh*. At least I never went in for that whole trekky thing.

That was about... what? 3-6 months ago? Several weeks before the beta announcement.

I've know about it for about 1.5 yrs now. I try to forget about games that are that far away because it's bad for your health and sanity :0
I really started getting into it in late November I think. I was on some gaming site(gamespy i think...pity me) and it said something along the lines of "Tomorrow we take a look at the progress Planetside has made and what stage the game is currently in."
Wow had it come a long way from those screenshots way back...I swear I could literally count the pixels in those...1,2,3,8!

Both SWG and SB have stated their official release dates....
PS offical release date: ahh when is it
I sure as hell hope they do not release PS after SWG;that would be an evil marketing scheme for Sony. If that happened I would probably play SWG while I wait for PS and get hooked on it.....not good
