Your thoughts on Planetside 2 so far?

[SuperMorto]

Hi all,

there are lotas of big threads kicking about at the min, so I thought I would condense the thoughts of folks here at PSU with a Poll and help the SOE team get a general view of how folks feel, including some new folks at PSU. You can discuss your current thoughts on the game here!

Im happy with the way things are going, but still very sceptical of the things that have been taken away, it could be a bad move, but as SOE dont want to give to much away, its a thin line to be treading on, and we know a load of info will be hidden from us (like the VS and NC Rexo's!!! Come on!!)

Hope the hiding is for good reasons! <3 #Planetside2

EDIT* WTF does lotas mean ???

The One Game To Rule Them All

[SKYeXile]

Yea liking the look of it currently, the more i hear about the game the more i think the devs are on the right track(as opossed to SWTOR where the more i herd and played the more i wanted to throw up) there's a few things removed i dont like, and afew things changed or added i dont like, but i think they;re sort of minor and are mostly for the best interest for the game, the only thing I'm actually concerned about is stealth snipers, but were yet to see its proper implementation.

Cons:
Killcam
Boarding animations
Holstered weapons

Pros:
Everything else

I think it says a lot that the biggest problems people seem to have revolve around killcams and aesthetics. You have a few people upset with gunning drivers, inventories or classes, but even then the complaints seem primarily speculative.

I voted "Ugly", because I can... Seriously, why did you even add lower 3 options here? I think the fact that the game is looking far better than anything anyone ever played here is obvious.

Variety is the spice of life, learn it and you will do well!

Whats up Morto? I like this idea.

Overall, I have to say I was skeptical with ps2's announcement. I was really happy when I heard but also worried it would be some generic shooter without a heart or soul.

As of right now I'm going into planetside 2 with two general thoughts.

1. Nothing will ever be as nostalgic as planetside or resident evil outbreak was for me. Things are going to be different with this game. Whether it's for good or bad but think of it this way. At least they are even making a second game and without it I fear planetside 1 would most likely die out in the next year or so. either way we wouldn't have anything to play so we have at least the hopes of something new.

2. The people working on this game seem to have a tremendous amount of respect for us (the fanbase) and the source material. The amount of communication that goes on here is incredible and as a fan I really do appreciate it. This being said I have a lot of faith because of this that planetside 2 is going to be an incredible game on it's own merits. I know we have concerns about a few things right now as a community but i think the best we can honestly do before we really criticize anything is.. Play the beta.

Until then I have nothing but hope for this game.

Tl;dr

I dream about how awesome this game is in my sleep.

I feel like the Devs are on the right track. There are a few things that have either been removed or added that kind of annoy me/ have me concerned. But I figured I would wait till beta to really voice a opinion on it. Outside of that I really love the look of it and can't wait to start playing.

Pretty much this.

ALTHOUGH, I wish VS maxes could fly...

Hello m8, and im doing well, a little smashed but well!

I do have faith in the new game, but I just hope they dont hard code to much, as I would like to be easy to change things if need be. I really think the first game had something** not sure what it was, but i would like the second to have it, and I'm hoping this team can deliver! I must say its looking like they will, I just hope beta is a good one and gives the game the PS1 factor! If it does, then my girlfriend wont be seeing much of me lol!!

Morto!

That spice must taste like shit to have, what was it? 4 bad options and 1 good option?

That said I went with good. Although they've proven it can be looked at, let's go beyond just looking at it already FFS.

[BigBossMonkey]

I love everything I've seen/heard.

Except for 2 things:
1) Killcams (I was neutral on them, but I've changed my mind after thinking about it for a while)
2) WHERE IS MY BETA INVITE RAR:HWOEIRJHWE:LKRJHSLEKJRh

Morto!

Haha I'm glad all is well and even you sound right about where I want to be in a few hours time no less!

I understand exactly what you're saying with ps1 having that special *something*. It was just something that grabbed you and hard. Man I still remember my reaction when I heard about the game and picked it up as kid and started to doing gal drops. Oh man so many good memories. I really hope ps2 captures that as epicness, I really do.

I'm with you on the beta man, everyone knows (even the girlfriend) that I'm going to disappear when it comes out lol. So I'm pretty excited like everyone here and I'm hoping it meets expectations and is overall a good representation of things to come.

I liked the last quarter of the tune the best.
