The answer is Yes.

Yes, it is worth trying.

FALSE.

It does not take a super high end computer to run this. If you have anything purchased in the past four years built for gaming then you'll be fine. 

My PC is an I7 3.4 ghz 16 gig of ram, 570 graphics card and it easily runs in the largest battles with perfect frames. That is maxed out to the tits, even motion blur on.

hmmm

not sure if it meant to be sarcasm :/

btw thats my pc: amd phenom4, 4gb ram, ati 5770gt. and i'm runnin it on high too.

at the beginnin i had always crashes after 1hour playin bc the 4gb ram with vista were kinda not enough. but then i read about the laa (large address aware) solution on the forums. now im playin 6+ hours/day with no lags and crashes.

whether it gets boring in one day depends on the person..

the game is free to play,if you dont like it then theres no strings attached.

PC Gamer gave it a 9.

IGN gave it a 9.

I give it a solid 8.5 (I like it, I've been playing it daily, how long it'll keep me (shrug).

It's Free.  So it'll stay installed.

Those idiots rate every game with big backing of a conglomerate highly.  Their rating mean nothing.

It sure is fun however.

Enticed by the plans they have for the future in this game, including a sandbox continent where you can build bases and aquire resources to make stuff, and flying aricraft carriers ect.

Not sure about that sandbox continent however...seems like a recipe for disaster.  More vehicles, classes, guns, utilities and possibly somehow connecting the three continents would be more than enough i think.

I dislike when games try to be and do too much, when their basic foundation is good as it is and should be polished and padded with content, rather than branching off in this case into the sandbox arena.

As others have said, it's free, so there's really no reason not to try it unless you're brutally short of download quota or disk space or something.

If you're coming from more of an MMORPG background than an FPS background, as I was, you may find it intensely confusing at first. Expect to die many times before you even get a clear sight of an enemy, let alone kill one. All the introductory tutorials I found launched straight into more advanced topics like how to buy vehicles and how to spend your certifications - they skipped over genuinely basic stuff like "how to tell who is on your team and who isn't." And yes you can shoot your own team-mates, and be shot by them.

So if you do give it a go.. just be prepared to bang your head against it for a bit before deciding whether you enjoy it or not.

Yup, die a LOT, then slowly figure it all out, death doesnt matter so at least try to get a few shots on whatever kills you and youll get partial XP if someone else kills it.

It takes a few hours to adjust, once you figure out whats happening, and why...it will start to make sense and become very entertaining.

Largest nooby thing i see is people not recognizing objectives and enemy spawns.  Enemy spawns have a shield ont he door, they can shoot out you can shoot in.  Youll see people camping them out of line of sight, and they will be int he door camping out. Inbetween is a horrible place to be.  

You shouldnt feel bad that you die a lot and dont know why, it might be an errant tank round that got lucky, could be from the sky, could be a mine or a grenade, or that guy on the roof with a jet pack.  Death doesnt matter. Just try to get some xp between deaths.  Eventually youll start taking lots of people down with you...thats how you need to look at it and what your short term goals should be, taking as many down with you as possible.

It's worth trying even though the game does it's very best to put off new players by hot-dropping them into a cluster-f**k straight from character creation to be free frags for others.

PS2 takes some perseverence, even for PS vets, the systems are different and the map is baffling first time out.

Don't be put off by the harsh beginning as many players have been, give it a few days, get to know how it works then make a decision. As others have said, it's free to try so not much to lose.

I HIGHLY recommend anyone thinking of playing PS2, to join an outfit.

Seriously, this is not a soloers game, which is why I love it so much. You can still do some solo stuff, like sniping, but you will survive much longer if your part of a group.

There are many videos on youtube that show the epicness of the battles, hundreds of players, on the ground and in the air. Its freakin awsome!

Yep,its all about the team work if you want to be consistantly successful

Yes.

If you're a PC gamer that enjoys PvP on a grand scale or that enjoys FPS's... and you don't try this game - logic is not your friend.

It's free... it's awesome.. why wouldn't you try it?

* as others have said, it's worth checking out some gameplay vids/tutorials to give you a clue... there isn't much in the way of help and the combat can be rather daunting/punishing if you don't know what's going on.

Even if you know what is going on this game is quite challenging and daunting compare to even a lot of other non-mmofps.

I'd say to new players do not expect to be able to be a one-man army and clean out the entire enemy team even if you are super-skilled because that is simply just not going to happen - there are just so many people in a fligh thtat you don't know which stray bullet is going to kill you. You will be lucky if you survive more than 5 or 6 fully intensive firefight without dying at all.

I think this game, in terms of the chaos of massive combat's level of simulation, is simply the best I've played at the moment. This game is like Gettyburg of space opera.

Only if your Really into FPS's. Its just an oversized 3 sided and persistant FPS.

Compared to FPS's its sub-par.

However, it does fill a niche in thats it probably the only one thats persistant and not an RPG. It's unbalanced, Pay2Win (players can buy equipment unlocks which is most of progression in the game) and glitchy as heck - so much so that it might corrupt your OS though you probably can and will avoid that if you try it though (only seems to be an issue with older systems).

It also requires a fairly high end system to be more than a stuttering slideshow in mass battles which are its main attraction and even that isn't likely even with a High end computer as it is a problem with their servers as well as the game client.

Outside of the FPS there is nothing to do or care about.

The Outfits/Clans/Guilds are all FPS oriented entities who are 'typical' of FPS attitudes, which is to say 'ego stroking', Vulgar and largely interested in farming kills for K/D ratios and/or Cert points with no regard to the bigger game (which is what makes most of the bigger game redundant as thats typical of everyone playing since it is such a royal pain to organise and coordinate).

As described by others its a MMOFPS, an FPS just bigger and not necessarily better.

My own answer to the OP is: 'NO' not unless you REALLY like FPS's.

helios just crahsed the party. again.

people will soon enough spend 20 bucks again on a F2P game and get their advantage (suckers cant aim)

Oh ok, yeah i got a pretty decent computer i built 3 months ago super clocked 680 8 gig ram a lot of cooling i5 k. If that doesn't run the game don't know what else will.

But ill see how it goes.

you are good to go, and the game is definitelly worth trying. BUT, you will get bored if you plan on playing as the lone wolf.... find some friends  to join your squad and you will have a blast.

Some people have limited bandwidth and download limits and it's a 7+ gig download.

I asked if it's worth it because i don't want to waste 7gig of download data.. Troll else where.
