I remember when I first heard about the original Planetside. I don't think I had ever been so excited for a game before it was released. Up to that point, Ultima Online was my only MMO experience and the appeal of a game that combined that sort of persistent world + massive number of players + FPS gameplay (I was a big CS 1.5 player at the time) was almost too much to handle. I actually joined up with a bunch of folks on a forum before the game was released and made a clan of sorts. We pretty much played BF1942 and Counter Strike together to get ready for Planetside. We played New Conglomerate when the game finally came out. Played for a few months but couldn't play when I was home from school because my parents only had dial-up and the lag was tough to deal with. Man I miss that game. Favorite thing to do was find a base being fought over by Vanu and TR and take one of the small scout bikes (forgot the name), load it up with bolt-driver ammo and camp the path between the two bases. I'd take pot-shots at both armies from my little hiding spot. With the main battle going on, the other players hardly noticed when a blue name would pop up across the top instead of a red or purple one. Never got to play with the Mechs (stopped playing before they were added) but being part of a massive dropship raid on a base was also a hell of a lot of fun. ...really need to find my old SOE account info... | ||

On the other hand Vanu have the least interesting ground units I think. As infantry I would rather try TR or NC :/ | ||

Everyone gets the same classes; weapons are different, but there's a lot of customization you can do to fine-tune your playstyle, and we really don't have a lot of specific weapon details yet. I think I'll try out both NC and VS at first (assuming I find a job and have the money for a gaming rig so I can play this amazing game). I disagree with the TR ideology too much to really get into them; NC and VS I can both see some merits to, and I'm curious to try out the VS energy weapons and see how they feel. I just found the reload animation on some of their guns pretty cool -- having a little round power-cell type thing instead of a clip. | ||

 But also the way they are played. TR high burst lowest dmg, etc. http://i.imgur.com/HJUHO.jpg | ||

If you support New Conglomerate you support terrorism and fear mongering and irresponsibility If you support Vanu scum you support genocide and communism and hitler. I think the choice is clear. | ||

Strafing is OP in Tank battles. edit: damn it, ment to edit my last one not double post >_< | ||
