The game's death knell rings loudly today.

Esports and planetsides rvr are not an easy fit. This is a bad direction to take, would have preferred the sandbox continent instead.
Esports and mmos just don't mix, its never been done successfully. |

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results. |

well I gave up on this game. The ammount of wall hacks and aim bots in this game is nuts. Now they are turning it into an esport on tv?

The king and the pawn go back to the same box at the end of the day. |

Originally posted by Stellus My first thought exactly. Game isn't doing as well as they hoped. They would had been better off doing a call of duty mmo, that game is better imo.

I've been playing since launch. I've encountered the occasional ganker, but not "rampant cheating"
I came across way more hackers in war, gw2 & rift amongst others. |

Bummer, I am slowly taking a few steps back from this game every time I read a review. I was an avid ps1 player, 8 years...guess I will stay on the old Auraxis

Plenty of us still like the game. Outside of eve its the best pvp experience you can get today.
Sure its not as good as classics like ps1 and daoc. But its way more fun than the likes of gw2 and especially wow for pvpers. |

I've had a lot of fun in PS2, but I'm totally pissed about this MLG link...
Are they trying to make the rest of us feel like second-class players?
Well it sure worked... f**k MLG... Buy games instead of guns. |

The game is fun yes are there cheaters sure. Rampet maybe on your server or just the one faction. What I have seen I'd the aerial jets zipping all over my crafts. Thy are to fast to track with the human eye and also how can they damage and kill so many people evading missiles and AA. That and other hacks should be addressed befor going Esport(fat kid pro athlete?). Personally stupid but hey it's Sony the people behind brain trust team dumb #2 Ea is #1 brain morons.

Well, maby this will make SOE to look in to hacking... and do more about it. wich will be a GOOD thing. dont se why every one here is so "mad" about it. it have nothing to do with normal game play.

Whatever, the Esports aspect doesn't appeal to me. The game on the other hand does, I like it alot. I have seen some speed hackers but that is about it. Everything else, I believe, has just been the game going a bit wonky. I have seen nothing like I saw in BF3 where a guy is killing everyone on the map. |

You know a great way to deal with these hackers you all mention? Play with a squad/platoon! (Honestly how many of you play with 24+ people? Ones that are not zerging the Crown.) Most of you guys cry non stop on these forums, it is pitiful coming here anymore and almost none of you even have an arguement. Let me put it in obvious terms for you.... Just like LoL, PS2 will be able to take squads/outfits and place them on a seperate server for SvS or OvO style tourneys for MLG. By doing this they will reduce hackers from both inside and outside of the tourney. |

Good for SOE. Maybe with the added attention, they might put some serious work into fixing all that is wrong with their game. I was a huge fan of PS1(seriously - I loved that game) and was hoping that SOE would deliver a new version that was better, but sadly that is not the case. ::sigh::

I have zero experience with hackers dominating or griefing me in the game. There have been a few occasions where I thought the death was impossible, but the scenario didn't repeat itself until I thought I couldn't play the game. I never experienced the widespread panic that seemed to afflict a lot of other players in PS2. I'm not saying it didn't happen, but that seriously can't be used as an excuse to call it the end for the game.
