I loved Planetside but the problem is it came before WoW and the MMO genre didn't appeal to FPS players back then. Also SOE stopped putting funds into the game in development to focus on EQ2 and SWG so the game was half the game it woulda been at launch. Then SOE gave the developers 3 months from launch until Sept to do an expansion pack with no testing which was shit and alot of people left the game because they were getting bored of capturing the same bases. Then BFRS came in and I remember everyone quit cause they sucked so much and the subs never came back. Since then SOE hasn't marketed it and has really patched it all the much, lots of the same bugs still exist and it doesn't even work on Vista without having to go to the forums to get help. SOE ruined another gem and you know if it was made by Blizzard or someone then the story would be different. Shame cause Planetside will never come around again, such a unique game and coulda been a whole lot better. I quit college to play this game throughout 2003.
