Confirmed for knowing nothing about the game.

There is nothing you can buy only with real money that will give you an advantage and the starting gear is every bit as competitive.

p2w means that a player gains an advantage that is impossible to obtain other ways by paying for it. There is nothing like that in PS2.

Not one thing.

You can't directly pay for 2x hp or shields, you can only get boosts for being a member which can double your cert gain, making it easier to purchase nanoweave armor (when maxed provides 20% decrease in small arms fire excluding headshots).

The game is pay2notgrind but it's not nearly as bad as it could be. Starting weapons really are great and the first few tiers of direct upgrades like nanoweave or shield regen are really cheap, only getting expensive for tiers 4 and 5.

This is when I stopped playing PS2. Lightning kitted out for anti vehicle and you're just food once a Harasser shows up. Even in an MBT with a competent gunner it was a entirely the Harasser's fight to lose... you had to land every shot perfectly, if you missed even once the gunner could just repair them while they drove rings around you.

After the engineer rocket turret, the instagib shotguns, the fucking rocket pod sperglords... the Harasser was the last straw that pushed me away from this shitheap game.

So essentially, higby had a whole bunch of ideas for planetside 2, but sony in their infinite wisdom had a whole bunch of things. and they kept comparing it to battlefield, for some reason. eventually higby and sony kept fighting back and foward, and sony decided to sell off soe, and planetside. they did, to a russia guy who is really into planetside, they restructured their company, and renamed it daybreak studios.

believe it or not, most bad decisions were because of hirai who wanted it out fast, so game released a year earlier, and higby did everything he could to delay the game for another year, but hirai didn't budged. he wanted results with an half finished game.

I'm missing out a lot of details but that sums it up I think.


Now that they're daybreak studios, things are getting better, although very slowly, because they're lazy and are still recovering. We're about to get some cool shit involving ANTS and sanctuaries.

PS2 has a well-established system of releasing a new weapon/item/vehicle that is game-breakingly OP, leaving it in that state long enough for the wallet kiddies to get their kicks, then nerf it into reasonable territory right around the time people going the grind route would have been able to earn enough certs for it.

It's P2W insofar as, unless you just keep a bunch of certs banked and lying around for release days, paying lets you get the latest OP shitcannon long before people that don't pay.

It's a goddamned shame because PS1 was a god-tier game being held back by technology, and PS2 is a shit-tier game that has the technology that PS1 would have needed to unlock its full potential.

>in early PS2

people STILL fight over the crown like it 's the only area on the map that matters, especially TR.

The reason the crown usually has those hour long+ battles is becasue unlike almost any other bases on the map the crown is actually defensible.you cant just roll in a ton of tanks and expect to easily take it without much resistance if there are defenders there.

A lot of the most memorable battles i've been in happened at the crown because it is well designed. If every other base in the game were designed like the crown, Planetside 2 would be a better game.

It's one of the games biggest flaws, the larger team almost always wins.

They need to get the resource revamp implemented to balance this out since larger groups would eat up more points and they couldn't just endlessly zerg. Unfortunately I've heard the devs don't want to punish people for "working together" so we may never see it implemented in a way that fixes the problem.

>shilling for heavyside 2

Games unbalanced as fuck. I disagree that it is pay to win as someone who has put in more than 2000 hours. The starting weapons are some of the best in the game.

But the classes and factions are unbalanced to he'll and back.

NC=hard mode
TR=normal
VS=easy

The numbers show this shit too. It's why the number one weapon that has been auraxiumed is the orion, which is a heavy assault Vanu weapon.

The game is fun if you can get good. But it gets boring when you see this shit and the people that abuse it and act like they are good at the game.

Sure they are big. Mostly empty and devoid of players/action. Everything happens at one location at a time with everyone just runs/dies at the same doors until one side gives up or the other rushes.

>fantastic squad-based combat

Squads rarely work together with eachother since none of them have mics anyway. Most of the time the fact that you are in a squad means absolutely nothing.

>Great gunplay

It is "ok" at best. Controls are a little loosey goosey and they guns are overall very bland and samey.

Air vehicles are great, require actual skill to use as well. Neat. Ground vehicles are overall meh.

>high skill ceiling

No, not really.


This game should have/could have been a huge fucking deal. Lots of little things they did really fucked shit up and now they player base is too low to really be worth it.

Only some of the starting gear is the best, and it still takes shittons to upgrade

>>323790832
Aircraft have a defensive upgrade slot- one of the options is armor. But it only gives like 25% more effective HP and you have to give up flares meaning you're getting hit by more lock-ons

You might have been shooting at a liberator; it's a different aircraft that you need rockets or flak to take out, but it needs two people to operate unless you're crazy good

>>323790940
>the starting gear is every bit as competitive
Only for basic infantry rooty-tooty-point-and-shooty. And even then, you're going to be better off if you've paid for an XP boost or membership because you'll get upgrades to your medic and engy gear, optics, etc faster.

Its not that it's P2W in the "if you don't spend money you can't win", it's just that the grind is so long and the beginning guns are so shit that you're basically forced to.

>A MAX with one burster makes aircraft laugh rather than die.

In fairness, unless they've seriously changed it up in the last ~2 years since I quit, a MAX with two bursters makes all but the most incompetent aircraft laugh in PS2.

The TTK for dual bursters was (is?) a complete motherfucking joke, and even the fighters could facetank locked-down TR MAX DB fire and still kill the MAX first with rocket pods.

PS1 had the AA balance correct. Reavers could still kill an AA MAX if they got the drop on it and opened up first, but generally speaking anything short of a lib shit its pants if an AA MAX got on it, as they should have given the AA MAX almost literally can't even damage anything else, let alone kill.

You die on like one fucking second if a nigger even as much as glances at you, guns have ridiculous recoil, and you can barely hit anything with them unless you are right next to your opponent, or are using a sniper, the vehicles handle horribly, and there is no fucking point in endlessly fighting over the same god damn installations.

>>323795461
>shit netcode

It's clientside hit detection. If they hit you on their screen, they hit you period. If you hit them on your screen, you hit them period. Kill trades are a small price for no serverside compensation RNG fuckery that I got so fucking sick of in COD way back when.

>>323796014
>If you die, expect to spend a shitton of time getting back to the front line

You have the power as a player to put a spawn point wherever the hell you want. It doesn't even need to be unlocked anymore, just pull a Sunderer the next base over, drive up behind some cover near where you're attacking, and hit B to deploy. Then people can use your Sunderer to respawn at and you'll get points and shit for it. Joining a squad helps a lot. Playing during more active times helps too.

My experiences don't seem to match. If I'm in a burster MAX and an ESF tries to directly attack while tanking my damage, they almost never survive(though I will take a lot of damage.) On the other hand, if they get the jump on me they will usually win. So the onus is on me to watch out and not get tunnel vision.

In any case, most of the time people are smart and just run when they start taking flak, which is why I pull bursters to begin with.

I don't know what they changed, if anything, but it's more like what you're saying PS1 was

It's still shit netcode and I'm still right. Nothing you said there proves anything I said wrong, and in fact, it only further proves me right.

It's pay2actuallyhavefun bullshit, and the game itself suffers from having a bunch of incompetent devs who rushed it out of the gate too early, and are still reworking the core mechanics three years later.

Did they ever re-disable FF at the warp gates?

A while back I was thinking about getting back into the game after playing a ton during beta and at release. Made a new NC character and was checking out my loadout at an inventory station at the warp gate when I got shot in the back by a 13 year old. After that I chased him around the gate constantly killing him and caused him to start whining over voices comms. Havn't touched the game since.

Agreed, tanks losing to a fucking dune buggy is pretty fucked up.

>>323791229
Same. I looked forward to it for a while too.

FF has been disabled at warpgates
>>
>>323789804
You forgot. Absolutely terrible level design that makes the entire game feel unplayable.
>>
Last time I played was when the Gatekeeper came out, I usually play NC but I spammed that shit with a buddy of mine for weeks because it was so good. Otherwise, the only fun thing to do is Shred/Dalton armor columns from a Liberator. I haven't had fun playing as infantry other than C4 drifting out of Galaxies or off of trees on Hossin since the beta and first few months of 24/7 Crown fuckfests.

Havent played in 2 years was a founder. Really enjoyed hexmap ever since they got rid of hex i found the game less important and just stupid.

When they brought it out switched to esamir then they took it away esamir.

I might come back when they bring back hex or well the ant with hex.

Regardless of what people say, this game IS pay 2 win

>Buy the best weapons at level 1
>Buy boosts to EVERYTHING

>Hurrr durrr but you can get everything by playing the game normally!

Yeah if you play for 10k+ hours.
>>
>>323798685
sorry I had to do something else

are you really under the impression that an ADS game is a 'shooter?' as in, a first person shooter?

Im serious, do you believe that? because if you do, our conversation is over

Ended up quitting forever ago. Does the game still have:

>Liberators stronger than tanks, surviving anything and everything thrown at it, raining death from the sky

>One empire with 50% server pop zerging bases and taking them with no resistance

>Base captures consist of 5 minutes of actual fighting then 15 minutes of vehicle camping their spawns
>>
>>323802946

Yes, only now with more cash shop.

>>323789804
Played the game years ago, played the closed beta, but Higby couldn't fucking make up his mind and constantly swapped territory layouts and territory capturing techniques, settling on the worst which is what we see now. The game is a completely pointless zergfest of pubs zombie walking from one point to the next, with the exception of some sperg organized groups who don't quit because they've made so much progress in game and don't want to give that up.

There's no ultimate objective and no ultimate reward ie "end game", conquering the continents is impossible in the game's current form which is why I miss the beta, map conquering was entirely possible and it was fucking great. Pic related.

PS2 is completely irrelevant and cannot be salvaged this late on in it's life.

I hated how the actual shooting felt, floaty as fuck

It was shit, and it's dying.

>Each patch decreased performance and stability.
>Facilities were pretty much entirely open, meaning there was no seperation of vehicle and infantry game-play, so vehicles could camp objectives and spawns.
>Only one class has any real ability to deal with vehicles out of the box. Everyone could run C4 eventually, and engineer got a turret that shot rockets eventually.
>Air game was alright, but counter intuitive to learn.
>Infantry have no health, so firefights are decided 90% by who sees who first.
>Vanu get an anti-tank sniper rifle for their tank. Other two get a slow rocket launcher.
>NC's aircraft has the largest profile in every axis, has a shotgun for it's AI weapon. Other two get grenade launchers. The shotgun was good for anti-air suprise sex though. For a while...

And, oh yeah, it was zurg or be zerged.

Aesthetically it looks like shit. Couldn't play for more than 30 min
That's as far as my shit talking will go though

I did. I had fun, but it gets old really fast.
Can't say I don't miss the C4, but after a week it had no charm.
