I don't know. Planetside is kind of...Like what DUST promised to be. You know? The MMOFPS where the things you did had an impact, and was team oriented etc. For some reason, people still praise DUST, so why can't I like Planetside 2?

Things you do have an impact? Are you high? Have you even played the game at all?
I mean, I hope you people are just deluded and have actually played the PC version, because I honestly feel sorry for you all if you haven't even played it on PC and are expecting it to be any better on the PS4.
A. My outfit, The Enclave, does a mass air drop on a base.
B. The enemies attempt to zerg us off the capture point for about 5 minutes, give or take
C. EVERYONE leaves to go ghost-cap some empty base somewhere else
If we have too many victories, the other outfits will just jump to other continents en masse to go stomp on randoms.
Notice also that that video was not long after a Game Update, which bring people back for short periods before they all leave again. My outfit managed to get 128 players online for a full 4 platoons of us on the day of the Game Update that brought out the lattice system, the feature that promised to finally bring the massive battles we all started playing for into the game.
4 days later we could barely muster up 80, and I could long in as a non-premium member and switch continents during
prime-time without even hitting a queue. Kinda hard to have fun when every fight ends in the Vanu rolling in and rolfstomping everyone in the retardedly OP ZOE MAXes* that it took SOE forever to fix, and people STILL preferred to go cap empty bases for easy XP rather than fight.
*Terran Republic MAX suits get an ability that locks them to the ground and increases their RoF and reload speed. New Conglomerate get a riot shield that deflects all damage that hits it at the cost of not being able to use your weapons. The Vanu Sovereignty got the Zealot Overdrive Engine, which allowed them to move as fast as normal infantry, increased the damage their shots did, and only had a minor penalty to hp as a downside. Clearly SOE is the superior company when it comes to game balance.
