HELP! HELP! HELP!

Since September 29, 2011

A /v/ (now /vg/) news/community/group dedicated to Planetside 2. Not empire specific. Damn shame with the naming ever since the /v/ split.

Planetside 2 is a upcoming free-to-play MMOFPS that I'm sure, will revolutionize the idea of a true, large-scale MMOFPS. Now I'm not sure how Planetside 2 is going to work in terms of deployment, but in Planetside 1 you were given a quick tutorial, given a suit of armor and a gun, then thrown into the frontlines. The main "goal" of the original was simple: capture the facilities. Facilities grant bonuses when captured, for example, if you capture a Technology Plant, your empire will be granted access to high-tech vehicles, such as their main battle tanks. Having that technology plant also "links" it up with other facilities that your empire currently controls, allowing you to spawn MBTs there also. Facilities are spread across the 10 different continents. If you control all facilities on a continent, you control the continent, and only twice that a Empire has controlled all continents. While all this may sound small, keep in mind that battles were fought with tanks, aircraft, infantry and a fuckton of more. Standoffs between bridges could last an hour, with tracers, tank shells, and flail artillery everywhere. Planetside 2 is going to expand on that even more, with customizable vehicles, massively expanded player cap per continent, territory system resources, hell there's not enough room here to cover everything.
