Smile Things you already love about PS2


It's easy for Devs to see when people hate something, but they don't always know what we absolutely love already (until they change it and we rage). So here's a thread dedicated to what you LOVE about PS2 so far that you DON'T want them to change!

Killcam (the lack thereof)
Friendly Fire
New Liberator bomb system
Class-specific abilities
No (or limited) 3d spotting
Resource limited grenades

Anyone want to back me up on these? Add to the list?

Not convinced this is working as it should, but maybe...

*The moving parts presented by Implants/Certs/Various slots are pretty awesome in of themselves (though I'd like more).

*Big maps and a bright color scheme are also quite nice.

Those beautiful weapons. I can't wait to get my hands on a Cycler.

I love the new liberator. It's one of the first things that I plan on certing up.
I also like the empire-specific aircraft and the new methods of capturing bases.

Indeed ^_^
And to specify a bit, I made this thread trying to focus on things (as of E3) that we love that they COULD change. I want to let our good Devs know what we like already and want them to keep.

Hex system encouraging in-field combat. The best battles I experienced in PS1 were over hilly terrain, a freaking rock, or a hole in the ground, not bridge and base battles.

Class system: Finally, everyone and their mom won't be a Rexo/HA/AV/med/eng junky. Everyone has a rifle in fact, which is good. Except the MAX units, they have two freakin' cannons, which is awesome. Now every base tool and weapon is available to me, I just might not be piloting the most tweaked out aircraft or have all the fun gadgets on my rifle like that other guy, and I certainly can't wield it all at once.

Lower TTK: Also finally, I won't have to dump what feels like over half a mag into someone's back at point blank while they're pinned into a corner and they're STILL alive and somehow turn around to kick my ass. A lot of newbs quit over similar scenarios, I'm sure. Catching someone off guard should equal a kill if one's aim is true. Period. Watch your six and check those corners, there isn't nearly so much forgiveness for sloppy and careless game play this time around!

Weapon/Armor/Vehicle customization: Because the certs of PS1 were freaking bare-bones and in themselves didn't make my character feel very deep or specialized with each one I got, just less restricted to what I could do. Also, the more solid armor bits I can put on my medic/engineer, the better!

Actual vehicle physics: Holy crap, I might actually enjoy flying this time! On that note, empire specific aircraft and turning the liberator into a gunship. Freaking A.

And need it be mentioned? The massive scale of it all. 2000 players. One map. One goal. For land. For power. Forever.

I really want to play Planetside 2.

- Being able to watch the ground as you drop in, framed by fire from the friction of re-entry , instead of having to watch the drop pod from the side.

-Each faction having a very different feel
-The fact that there are three factions, as opposed to two
-A good amount of depth to weapon/vehicle customization
-The art style. Holy shit I can't tell you how sick I am of having to play BROWN & BLOOM shooters. Happy to see a little bit of color.

I remember being so excited about BF3 because of the vehicles and the size of the maps. Seeing this game just blows my mind at how awesome it's going to be. I really like what the game looks like at night too with all the lights, lasers, explosions, etc.
