Nerdluster: "Most of my time spent playing Planetside 2 the last few weeks has been spent wondering why I’m fighting over the same facility or installation day after day. There is little incentive to keep or hold points of interest. There is no resource or reward system to drive the expanded meta-game of this giant free-to-play MMO. If Micro-transactions based on weapons aren’t enough to drive sales in the next few weeks I’d say that this infant MMO is due for some rough patches in the months ahead.
I’ve enjoyed flying ships, ferrying via transports and sniping enemies from hilltops in the past few weeks but now that I’ve experienced the first round of what Planetside 2 has to offer what is next? I may actually sit idle for a few weeks and let my initial investment percolate waiting for new content to come out after the launch."
Planetside 2’s future is uncertain as the IP was sold for a relatively low sum to a company with no history.
Was such a cool concept back in the day - shame that it never really took off like it probably could have with more support
The last Live Letter is done and we were all surprised at the announcement of a delay to the release of FFXIV's Endwalker expansion, we got some more details about the MMORPG's new PvP Crystal Conflict mode, and some system details. Then we talk about PlanetSide 2's new continent and LOTRO's new expansion before wrapping up with some good changes for Ubisoft and Blizzard... but are they enough? All that and more on this week's Always Online!
PlanetSide 2 is going to be getting its next major expansion this December. This new addition, titled “Expedition: Oshur” will be the first addition in almost seven years to bring an entirely new continent to the game.
