I'll not be resubbing any time soon

[Illtempered]

I'm not saying I'm quitting. I'm not throwing a tantrum and taking my ball home. I'm just saying....this is pathetic. One year in and not ONE new continent. They're wasting all their time on redesigning bases and continents that don't need it, and of course they never miss any opportunities to throw cheap crap in the overpriced SC store. They still can't even get the HUD colors right, and performance still sucks with fewer players on the servers.

I was a heavy supporter of this game early on, when many others were raging. I thought the bases were defensible enough at launch, and the influence/hex system worked just fine. Tech Plants, and Biolabs were hard to take, and if the gens were defended at Amp Stations they were no pushover either.

But! We were lied to. They knew this game was nowhere near finished, and we've been funding their beta-test for a future Playstion4 game. I've been a loyal Planetside subscriber for over ten years! Do that math. I've put my money into the system, but I'll not be putting anymore in until I see some major changes on SOE's end. In the meantime I'll play for free and not hold my breath.

In a similar boat where I just log on for daily certs now. That all said though I do feel obliged to keep up a long MMO tradition of posts that have leaving in one form or another as a topic so I'm just going to go ahead and say it:

So can I have your stuff?

[camycamera]

and they still have to redesign the spawn rooms lol

[Rivenshield]

Yeah.... I haven't logged on for at least two months. I just try to keep my finger on the fading pulse here and on the official forum.

It's free, any time I want. And I don't want any.

I just saw the new PS4 commercial

this game is headed straight there,we were the beta for the console game LOL

and we goddamn paid them for it,its friggin hilarious

the PC revenue stream is about tapped out,so they move it to console and soak a whole new crop of "players"

This. Also, bugs. Like the turret bug that's been around since beta.

Also this.

Also bad lattice. There are places that are next to each other on roads (obvious supply route) yet are not connected by lattice.

And finally, the constant back and forth of bases with none of the bases feeling like they ever matter or having a fair chance to hold on to them for any long period of time (which is what bases SHOULD be about). Bases should be more difficult to take as when one claims it, it will give people something to feel proud about. That said, timers for base captures are too long when one gets swarmed easily and spawn rooms are surrounded (spawn rooms themselves are broken. Let people just drop pod at a small number of locations in territories or something and you'd probably have better fights).

Trying to stick it out with PS2 but find myself losing more and more interest as time goes on. And I'm playing this only a few times a week.

There is no point to re-subbing even if you are highly active. Sub once, get your certs and get up to around BR 60, then you have everything you need.

The only real incentive is the extra resources frankly. No resources really sucks.

I used to think I would keep paying just to support the game, but then the referral thing was launch... all the best vanity costs 200 dollars in fake accounts.... That is what made me stop subbing.

I stop at "They're wasting all their time on redesigning bases and continents that don't need it."

Base design has been the biggest issue in this game for me as an infantry player. The essamir redesign is was a huge step up and far more fun for me to play on than indar (talking strictly bases). The nexus is an even bigger improvement upon that. I've played a hand full of matches on the nexus and have enjoyed playing on those bases much much more than any live bases thus far. The core of the infantry combat takes place in the bases themselves, so they take far more priority than the landscape they exist in. That's not to say new conts are not important. However the continents are rather irrelevant if you don't enjoy playing for the objectives that exist on them.

[GraniteRok]

I have to agree. I've cancelled my sub as well. I think there's a month to go or there abouts. I still play and enjoy the game because of playing with friends but as others have said, it'll be a year and a complete lack of coming through on the promises.... Roadmap? QOL items? Continents? It's like developer ADD or something, getting all hyped about saying they're doing this or that then washed away for something else. Over the past year, I've put in what would've been two years worth of a regular subscription when factoring SC purchases, Alpha squad and the monthly subscription. Did I get my money's worth? Nope!

[Jonny]

I'm letting my years subscription come to an end, then no more money is going into this game. It's still loads of fun but I've got what I need now and supported the game. Time for them to support us back and add the meta game, new continent, and improve base designs/remove spawn camping. Chop chop SOE!

I'm looking forward to the optimisations too.

/still waiting on hossin

[Ruffdog]

Same boat. Just stopped my second 6th month from renewing. I've put the best part of 150 quid in with alpha, subs and sc. But I can't do it any more

[OpolE]

I do wonder how they even break even at the end of the month when they have fucked up nearly all their games

[Mox]

Stopped paying and playing. Ill be back when it is possible to lock continents....

[Illtempered]

Having said all of that, I still have a blast playing this beta-game with my outfit, and can't find anything better...yet.
