FREE: Planetside
« on: August 02, 2009, 08:45:00 AM »
...Till the 26th.

If you have old characters, no better time than now to play one of the best MMOFPS ever created or create a new account. Combined Arms Tactical Warfare on a Massive Scale.

I'm actually surprised there are poplocks again. Probably because they merged Emerald (East Coast) and Markov (West Coast) recently. Game may be on its last legs, but a solid poplock and fighting on 3+ Conts isn't anything to complain about.

I'm finishing up finals and this is a great game to play between cram sessions.

You can find me as:

(VS) - DefenderOfTheVanu
(NC) - DefenderOfTheSmurfs

If anybody has never seen Planetside in action, I bestow upon you one of the greatest experiences ever, filmed by me. A Funeral Bombing of Epic Proportions. Actually got me banned or I'd have my freakin' 5 year merit and a free Rexo Suit.

Lol nice, I think its true that you really did the deceased honor by attacking.  It is a FPS after all and in the spirit of the game


Free where?  Is the sub (if there is one) free or the game?

I updated my post with a download link. The game itself is free to download when you use the installer on that page, and you can create an account from the installed game's launchpad.

...and no. The only regret I have it getting banned. Not actually bombing.
That was one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had in Planetside.

Besides, we didn't have anything against the kid, we hated the narcissistic fagots posing for screenshots and pretending to be cool. You can see them dying like dominoes as their corpses lie there on the rooftops. I think we honored him in the best way possible, by killing all the people who WEREN'T fighting in a war game.

That's how I'd expect to be remembered anyway.

Hmm, thanks for the download, looks cool.

The bombardment run got you banned? Is there a discussion thread about it?

Why get you banned, I mean, killing IS part of the game.

I would never do that because it could be considered a sin, but still..

As much as I think a funeral inside a game is a stupid idea, that's rather crass thing to do right?  Suppose it's what you get when holding a memorial in a first person shooter game.

I have good memories of PS, but I think i'll leave them right where they are ... as memories,  SoE could have made so much of the game but let it to almost rot with very low patch rates and services they coulda done big things with it.  But alas they let it die like allot of their mmo's and other games.

You just convinced me to try the trial, and it is still fun!

W00t.

Too bad there isn't a referral service (though considering what you did to that poor boy's funeral, I'm not sure if you deserve it).

I was looking at the threads about the boy, what they did was evil in that they teamkilled, and just intentionally felt like being a jackass.


But oh well, were I one of the people at the Funeral, it would be cool to fight them back.
