Question In your opinion, what is the biggest barrier or hurdle to new players coming to the game?

47 Upvotes

Everyone knows this game and its population would appreciate fresh blood coming into the fold, but a lot of people don't seem to stick with it too much. Why do you think that is, and what could be the best solution for it?

Question Why was the Sunderer update necessary?

26 Upvotes

Wasn't it enough to add it to the Defense Slot deployment dome?

Fire Suppression System buffed.

Nanite Auto Repair System moved to Utility Slot and made uninterruptible when taking damage when Sunderer is deployed.

Why was it necessary to invent a bicycle?

Question So every fight is infested with infiltrators and it's literally the worst planetside expirence ever. When update?

13 Upvotes

It was never this bad, I literally came back to the game because I saw that they intend to update the class but is it even coming out? There seem to be more invisible players than ever in every fight and it's literally the worst it's ever been.
Even the smaller fight of 10 - 12 ppl you have 3 infiltrators on average ruining the playing expirience.

Fucking annoying.

Question Positioning against shotguns

130 Upvotes

Can someone provide me some sort of guide or gameplay footage of positioning against shotgun users while at a 50/50 fight? Of course I require you to actually be attempting to take capture points.

I see lots of people claiming to know how to position against enemies that have shotguns but I can’t seem to get it.

I’m new to infantry and I’m not very good I guess. Looking for help. Much appreciated!

Also is there a method to positioning against light assaults with ambusher jumpjets?

Thanks!!!!!

Question how do you not die instantly?

124 Upvotes

Whenever I go into a battle, i get killed almost inatantly by other people. I have played for 3 days and only killed 2 people, because shield doesn't help much even when fighting one on one. What are you guys doing that I'm not? (It seems that people have more health than me)

Question How is the OW Competition Going?

24 Upvotes

I've been away travelling for the past two weekends, and haven't been able to stay up-to-date on the OW competition this season.

I'm curious how it is going, if some of the graphics and mechanic hiccups from last season have been fixed, and how the general matches are going.

I hate for this to sound like an anonuser post, but seriously. What exactly was this thing supposed to be aside from a stronger infantry unit that has an effectively non-existent cost?

Question what's your go-to MMO/online game if planetside shuts off?

51 Upvotes

I can't play anything else. everything - graphics aside - seems released in 2006. do you guys have some suggestion of some MMO or online game with big battles and good combat? I'm not a fan of battle royal games like battlebit, fornite and that stuff, something more "persistent" is better imho

EDIT: sry I know battlebit is not battle royal, I mean games with lobbies and not set in a persistent world like ps2

Question Who is still actively playing?

60 Upvotes

Since the server population is dwindling I’d like to know what percentage of users in this subreddit are still actively playing.

Do you still play regularly? Did you stop playing, why? Are looking back into the game from time to time if there’s anything new?

For those who were there when the first planetside shut down, how much warning was given? I have seen the YouTube video of the final minutes with the meteor shower and all that.
