Planetside 2, now on Steam

Go get it! It's free!

Really short summary: It's an FPS like Battlefield only there are thousands of players in the same game, and yes you actually see hundreds at a time and you can fly around to see it all.

Important info: DANE and RH members are on Helios, which is actually a west coast server. Some of us are on the east coast Mattherson server, but that's due to early issues with joining a west coast one.

We're currently joining the New Conglomerate side (that's the blue team). You have to pick a side when you make a character, so pick the NC if you wanna play with RH and DANE crew!

Helios has the lowest population right now, but that doesn't mean there aren't a ton of people on it!

Downloaded it last night...will do everything in your post probably on Sat or Sun
Been playing some Civ V multiplayer w/a co-worker lately

made a character on both servers then i bring up the map and there was a map tutorial

I can see this game is serious then

I am loving this game. I haven't played an mmo in a couple years now, my last one was mortal online. The battles are epic and I will play this game for a long time. I'm even going to sub to the game. That is how much I like it.

I'm on Helios and Soltech. Dwo, Deathwarmedover both heavy assault.

I just unlocked the gauss saw s on Deathwarmedover. Man after getting used to the nc6 gauss saw, I am owning with the saw s.lol

I'm on Helios as AshmansLover no, fer real, i am

Hmmm, are we getting the band back together? I may be able to dive into the pool.... never mind the mixed metaphor.

It feels like the old DoD days, but on a truly epic scale. I was on Helios my second day and we were assaulting Mani bio. I'm with 50 infantry, aircraft all over the freaking place and a column of 30 tanks rolls by and I was with just a small part of the army. Truly EPIC!!!!!

I need to upgrade as my rig is outdated, but I had zero lag during that assault. I have to re log though every couple of hours or I bogged down bad.

Yeah Noob, a Squad or two of RH could do some damage.

I'll look you up AC.

BTW, I have a mumble server that seems to work better than the in game VOIP. IM any of the TF2 crew on steam, and they should know the info. I don't want to post it on a public board.

It's double XP weekend, get in the game and get them cert points!!

I've been wicked behind since I'm in the process of moving from Seattle to Colorado.

I'll start downloading this tonight!!
