The original PlanetSide was an answer to a question many gamers have asked while playing shooters – why am I limited to only a few dozen people to shoot on this server? By throwing hundreds of players into the same area and forcing them to work together to kill one another, the original accomplished something unique in the MMO world, a working MMOFPS. It had it’s share of problems, but in general offered a unique and fun experience, attracting both MMO fans and shooter fans.
Planetside 2’s future is uncertain as the IP was sold for a relatively low sum to a company with no history.
Was such a cool concept back in the day - shame that it never really took off like it probably could have with more support
The last Live Letter is done and we were all surprised at the announcement of a delay to the release of FFXIV's Endwalker expansion, we got some more details about the MMORPG's new PvP Crystal Conflict mode, and some system details. Then we talk about PlanetSide 2's new continent and LOTRO's new expansion before wrapping up with some good changes for Ubisoft and Blizzard... but are they enough? All that and more on this week's Always Online!
PlanetSide 2 is going to be getting its next major expansion this December. This new addition, titled “Expedition: Oshur” will be the first addition in almost seven years to bring an entirely new continent to the game.
New Conglomerate 4 Life!
Planetside 2 is awesome! Download it and play it....it's FREE!
Very fun game. All factions are pretty even.
This is a very critical review of a genre defining game, and not to mention the best free to play on the market.
