Nice review can't wait for this game!
I've never played a MMORPG, due mostly to the fact that I enjoy clan matches and the friendship that it entails. Will Planetside have a system in place to form clans and have wars against other clans ? It would seem that joining an alliance would be similar to a clan but on a larger scale, is there any place in the game for smaller clan based wars ?

This game looks so high-tech. Its going to be uber when it actually comes out. I've been wanting to play something like this eversince EQ, and now its finally in the making. Ah, this is gonna be sweet.
It would seem that you can join smaller 'teams' within each empire... this could lead to two teams from the same empire fighting, although there will most probably be a penalty for such actions.... but the option is there if you choose to take it!
An elitist comment but it is about time that games stopped pandering the lowest common denominator of connection. Games like Planetside need adsl / cable and it owuld be a better and braver game if it was specced up to 1ghz and broadband
This is all arse-kicking goodness. I've been following the game since it's announcement and I'm still hooked.
It's not a Mmorpg, it's a Mmofps
;)
PLANETSIDE!!!
I've been watching this game grow since 2000 and still can't wait till its finished.
Got 1 thing to say. It is going to be in my computer game stockpile the second it comes out!
Yes. If you visit the PlanetSide website and check out the FAQ, you can see that you can group together a small group of ppl, and group this with other groups, or even start you own erm... Forgot what it's called. Same thing as a Clan or Guild, but they call it something else...
Also; team based competitions - like Capture the Flag...
If you fight someone within your own empire, this is known as grief play and is punished. Manouvering around the place in vehicles it made slower (hence making you easier to shoot at), weapons take longer to reload and so on... Continous grief play leads to a suspension or complete ban from the game...
cool
this game is awsome
Planet side looks VERY GOOD and I am thinking about getting it, I belive MMORPG's are the best type of games, what you think
If anyone here plays Gunbound try and find me.
