Its basicly a MASSIVE multiplayer PC game, it came out a while ago so its fairly cheap (though you need to pay montly) There are 3 armies that you can join and you just dive right into the action. These 3 armies are fighting for control of the planet/galaxy, the battles are massive! This is a pretty good look at what a Planetside battle looks like: Sol Edited May 30, 2008 by SOLANUM Link to comment

Paladin Posted May 30, 2008 Content Count: 1285 Joined: 08/08/07 Status: Offline Share Posted May 30, 2008 Planetside is a MMOFPS/PVP. You have two types of "levels" and they are the Command Ranks and the Battle Ranks. Battle Ranks is for simple combat, whereas Command Ranks are for when you are in charge of a squad. There are no leveling off of npcs or such, the game is strictly pvp. You go to different islands and fight two other nations for control of each stronghold/tower. Theres three different nations, Vanu Sovereign, New Conglomerate, and Terran Republic. Terran Republic usually has the most people, Vanu is the most advanced, and Conglomerate mainly has powerhouses of weapons. The last thing is certifying for vehicles, which you get by getting off of a cert machine. The only thing you can't get off of them is the Battleframe Robotics which you have to do a lot of pvping in caves for. Link to comment

It was a pain in the ass working for that thing and it just aggravated me that because some people couldn't kill it, they had to make it obsolete towards everything. Typical, gamers who can't get something or kill something, they have to have it nerfed. Link to comment
