Planetside 2

Is released today.

I don't know a lot about the game except:

1. Free to Play w/the usual cash shop
2. It seems to be a combination FPS and RPG in an MMO setting
3. Three factions
4. Nearly 7GB download

Here are a couple of videos:

For those of you with PC's (it's a windows only game) that can handle it, this is what ultra settings looks like:

I've been playing this for a few months. It is hands down the best PvP game on the market today. The atmosphere is amazing, joining in sprawling battles on beautiful terrain between two or three factions involving a hundred or more players still gives me chills sometimes.

And this from a guy who prefers turn based gaming!

Played this game when it got out for a few weeks. Did pretty well.. but got boring fast. As soon as people figured out the zerg, and sticked with it, you got huge, low fps battles that sucked.

A real planetary war should be with warzones and theaters of war and lines... and fine, if there is a blitzkrieg/breakthrough effort by a large group of people in armored vehicles, fine. But it doesn't change the fact that the way this should be fought, preferably ,is that in most of the territories that border enemy territories, there should be some people, 1-2 squads, fighting for control. That would be fun, not the zerg swarms.

Gave up because of the massive patches that constantly roll out..

This is one of the few genuinely good F2P games out there. I love it.
