Planetside 2

Post by SneakyPie » 27 Nov 2012, 08:23

So I've been really enjoying playing Planetside 2 and because it's FREE, you should too. Basically the game is Battlefield on a massive scale and it's constantly persistent meaning that there aren't any rounds you play with a winner, but a constant fight at all times of the day.

The game is a little overwhelming at first, so I recommend you check out the tutorials before playing which can be found here.

The game has the ability to create clans (known as Outfits) so if you're interested in joining up with me, I play on the SolTech server and am on the red team, known as the Terran Alliance. My soldier's name is of course SneakyPie.

Hope to see you all out there.

Oh, it's released now? I'll play, if my computer can run it. Last I heard, it's a massive resource hog. My computer can't even run Skyrim on lowest settings.

I'll probably go TR too, even if it is only because they are the best looking. If only the ones with the laser weapons weren't purple and insect-looking.

So, I've found out I'm terrible at this game, and that I absolutely hate friendly fire. Seriously, how hard is it for my teammates to realize that walking in front of a heavy assault who is firing his LMG is NOT a good idea?

i had my fair share of friendly kills too, mainly due to the game being stupid and switching from repairtool to weapon instead of repairing.

Another fun thing is getting constantly killed by your own teammates. I've died as much to them as to actual enemies. Also, it takes WAY to long to unlock attachments and such.

One way to play is with Fraps, I managed to catch a galaxy flip completely then another half flip into a tank and flip that.... MADNESS!

Alright, I'll try to join it if you do. I'll be our Designated Sniper, since my framerate makes close range fighting near impossible for me. :P
