GameSpot has a policy where they do not review betas. Personally, im suprised they even reviewed the game. Oh well. Its good to see a game reviewer actually do some thinking about how the game design compares to market standards and how much of a lasting fun factor it has. Seems like most reviewers out there go "Duh, this game is purty! I give it a 9!" |

Well, I agree with their technical review of the game, especially lately. However, the waiting around does not really happen that much anymore - not with so many people jumping online.
I think that if they do a follow up review in a month or two you will see that it is much better. |

As for their reviews, I find that they are very good. Though I'll never subcsribe to their premeire service, I've always liked their writings over any other "review" site. |

Sounds right, I gave planetside an 8 in the review thread. PS is the kind of 8, understand, that is not duplicated anywhere else, which Gamespot reflects in the reviewer's tilt.
I disagree with their assessment of its stability. PS has been rock solid for me whenever I've played it, except when the devs intentionally brought down servers. A couple zone crashes here and there, but these are common in MMORPGs and their ilk. I definitely know this, I'm able to stay connected to PS for far, far longer than your average player run FPS server.

7.9 isnt a bad rating , I consider this a good , fun game and im glad I bought it , but 9 and above means a great game , which it isnt at this time ( I stress at this time) . Cant let reviews on MMO games hold too much weight tho , since they are constantly changing. And as to the whole "im surprised they reviewed this game since they dont review betas" , gimme a break...You cant expect it to be 100% stable for everyone with no disconnects or anything , there will always be alot of patching etc. right away . Compared to almost every other MMO game the release of this game has been pretty damn good , though I would say it isnt perfectly balanced (almost though) .

He does have a point though. You should be able to play any game without hardlocking. Hardlocks mean something went wrong in their QA process, and they should never ever be acceptable because they're showstoppers. Server instability and outages due to overpopulation are understandable.
