Thank you for contacting Daybreak Support. I'm sorry to hear you are experiencing technical difficulties when trying to play PlanetSide 2. Error G201 is a graphics error that usually happens when the below software is not properly installed. Please make sure the following is installed on your PC, as the following software is required in order to run our games:

.NET Framework 3.5 SP1: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=22

Microsoft C++ 2005: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26347

DirectX 9.0c: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=8109

Let me know if the issue continues after completing the above steps.

this was the next step they gave me.
my crash @G201 was caused by a process running that was muddling interactions with PS2 and the required frameworks.
i ran a clean boot, restarted, and ran it again reenabling the processes i know i use, now it runs without issue.

because my gpu is a bit dated [GTX970] the next step would have been to completely uninstall the drivers for the gpu and reinstall with a fresh copy of them.

looks like i managed to fix the error. It was my xbox controller XD. After unplugging it i never had this error again.
