Are you talking about the AV buff? If so that was done like idk 18 months ago. It did bring a few people back. It didn't even effect people who knew how to drive properly anyway. |

Nerfs and the whining community destroyed Planetside as much as bad management at SOE.
BFRs and Armor were the only reasons to play Planetside over better games like BF1942. Ruin the BFR and Armor and people left in droves, never to return. Now the Rambos in Planetside run around zerging towers, all twelve of them remaining.

people "left in droves, never to return" when BFRs were introduced into the game, and even more left when the game became an Armor and Reaver-spam fest.. that is a fact. |

People left because of BFRs. That unit just was never put into the game correctly. The armor in my honest opinion doesn't drive people away from the game. Out of all my years of playing people rarely complained about being killed by tanks. Since it was so easy to get one yourself and enjoy doing it. These require teamwork. The air spam from mossies and reavers on the other hand probably did drive people away. I personally got pretty pist off at mossies, but I got over it. Some how ever take it a lot harder. Though it isn't nearly as much of a problem people make it out to be. In the end with soldiers, ground vehicles, and aircraft is what made the game unique. In no other game will you be able to roll a platoon of 30 people w/ 15 tanks and push the map along. This is why this game will remain my favorite game of all time. |

Originally posted by JMadisonIVActually people generally left because grinding experience to get your uber death ray from the sky made teamwork obsolete. "HACK HACK HACK" so I can get my uber death ray from the sky. Well shouldn't we be enjoying the battle, using different tactics, trying to be smart instead of grinding for the uber death ray from the sky?

I see why that crook Obama is about to get elected, people are easily fooled. If BFRs were the reason for the mass exodus from PS, then many of those same people should have returned once BFRs were nerfed to being useless. Same with armor, its not useless. All so some wanna-be-rambos can continue to foot zerg everything.
Much better foot zerg games can be had in the CoD, CS, or BF series. Planetside's strength was its armor and the BFR. Seems 'BFR's worked just fine in BF2142 and in many ways the BF robots are more powerful than the BFR was in PS.
Guess most of the PS community lacked the skill to handle anything outside a foot zerg or ganking defenseless foot zergers from the air. I miss Planetside a bit, but the community mostly sucked.

Absolutely true. Mostly sucks. I have met some very great people; but the majority are jerkoffs. It's considered "cool" to insult the Chinese players in global chat. But most CN players and groups I've fought alongside were considerate, friendly, and skilled. People think the world hates us because of Iraq..no, the world hates us because we're assholes. Though I try to be less of an asshole than most. |
