What was/ is your goal in planetside?


As I was perusing the official site, I came to realize that I'm more or less done with PS. In my eyes, I've accomplished everything that there is/I want to. I've gotten BR 20/CR 5. I've led one of the most organized outfits ever. I've commanded successful assaults on continents and collaborated in major strikes. And I've tried out nearly every cert there is in the game. I guess I've pretty much reached an endgame scenario. The only thing I could see now is just the same old stuff, but it just doesn't appeal to me anymore. I'm curious, what are some of the goals you guys have/had in PS? Perhaps it can give me something else to shoot for, as right now the only thing is the leaderboard ( )

Help other people? Become some sort of teacher in Planetside? Naw would never work, too many new people that think they know everything. I always try though.

yeah i recently got medic and i must say it was kinda gratifying healing people.

i think a large majority i feel that i've spent PS is becuz of the lag and computer issues i get with it. its certainly jading my opinion. I've missed a lot of stuff going on the past month or month and half but i really dont have fun when i play anymore.

Basically this is what goes on when I log in nowadays. I get on, see that 2 or 3 members of my outfit are on (most are in call of duty now as am i) go to a non zerged battle, kill some stuff then log off. It seems that all i do is kill stuff now, and i can do that in CoD without lag. I guess I've hit that brick wall where nothing seems to make a difference. I was relying on becoming a CR 5 to help rekindle my interest, but although it was great leading assaults and getting intel from people for a while, it soon became tired as the same tactics began to be used over and over.

Anywho i digress, back on topic...

Fight for your empire thats your goal, make a name for your self, now that your BR 20 CR 5 the journey just begins, or you could get CC if you dont already have it

Experiencing big battles was my goal at first. Now it's about tactics and perfecting the teamwork. BR20/CR5 has never been my goal -- I saw from the beginning that was just a sign of how much time you've wasted on this game. I mean, there's plenty of idiots who will follow even bigger idiots, so that bigger idiot can become an even more powerful idiot with bigger tools at his/her disposal, to carry out very idiotic stunts.

So to sum it up, my goal is to evolve as a player, and as part of a team, and live to see many CR5's get their rank stripped from some well-thought-out CR-atrophy system. But.. People will still always follow idiots, so the latter goal is nothing I hold on to too tight. Except the part about living, of course :P

I'm not really sure what my goal is beyond having fun. I try not to base goals on CR and BR because if that becomes my primary focus, I'll quickly fall to the BR20/CR5 Syndrome. You know....the one where you reach the top of BR and CR only to disappear from the game two weeks later? I don't want that to be me. I concentrate on my outfit. I concentrate on building it and making it better. And hanging out with all the people I've come to call friends over the past months. And making new ones.

I concentrate on helping my outfit grow, making sure we are the most organized outfit on Emerald-TR, and leading my outfit to battle. I organize operations for my outfit, I organize training missions, and I run the website/forum and do almost all the admin work.

I also concentrate on making the ULTRA Alliance grow. We now have thirteen outfits that are part of the Alliance. I plan operations, coordinate with other outfit leaders and their key leaders. I attempt to get more outfits to join the growing organization, and stop being a slave to the CR5-led zerg.

I do not have ambitions to make CR5/BR20. I don't camp spawn tubes and sit in base SOI's hoping for the max XP. I spend more time supporting my outfit, my alliance, and my empire. If and when I decide to reach CR5, it won't be the pinnacle. The pinnacle will be when the Emerald TR has the strength, organization, coordination, drive and determination to stop being pussies and start locking continents and denying the VS and NC a place to gain a foothold.

I enjoy running around supporting my outfit. From adv med engy, The galaxy pilot, To fully armed shocktrooper. I'm there to help my outfit. if I get bored (burn out) of planetside I usually go play another game for a week or 2. Try that take a PS vacation for a week or 2 you'll be wanting to come back.

Lilbird. I think that if you joined a different outfit, you would have alot more fun. In my outfit (Shadow Dynasty), when you log on, there are always about 4-5 people on. On Weds and Sats, we have as many as 30-40 guys on usually. Your a CR 5 and if you came in, you could become a leader for us. The outfit makes this game fun.

My goal right now is to be the best pilot in Planetside, and maybe the leaderboard.

Pork dude ok I'm going to give it to you strait you need to use proper grammar when addressing people, right now we all think of you as an annoyance. If you used coherent sentences then maybe we would take you more seriously.
