To anyone considering playing Planetside 2 - Be warned!

The game is near unplayable, not only because of its high demanding specs, but also because it is poorly optimized.

I'm above recommended specs as stated by Steam, and even then I was lucky to push 30fps on medium settings. The playerbase also reflects these problems, as their is hardly anyone on, and those that are, are suffering from lag spikes, and constant d/c's.

So if you're thinking about downloading it, hold off for a few weeks until they sort everything out... hopefully...
