I hold the same opinion as you do shakl. To be honest, I've been extremely disappointed about how they ran planetside into the ground. I was actually going to cancel my subscription when I discovered that I could no longer log in. Planetside, the idea, is wonderful, planetside, the game, is horrible. Planetside has it's fun moments, but the game is pretty broken, and with it's currently population, it's basically broken. Ever chase around someone with expert hacking who is flying a wasp putting ghost hacks on base after base for a few hours? To be honest, I have been searching for a solid replacement to planetside for at least 3 years. For those three years, nothing has come even remotely close.
What I have learned is several corporations and many people seem to want to believe if you make another FPS clone of counter strike and add a few RPG elements and a interactive lobby, you can call the game an MMOFPS. In fact, many seem to call counter strike an MMOFPS. It puzzles me how so many could be so wrong about something so very obvious and simple to understand. I purchase global agenda some time ago, they called that an MMOFPS. I've found top ten MMOFPS games on lists, mmohut, all of the games they have listed, I have tried, expolored and found their label of the game to be a complete lie or a total misunderstanding of what MMOFPS means. Supposedly they call marswars an MMOFPS, but I wasn't able to see the depth of the game that would allow me to call it an MMOFPS. Perhaps there isn't enough players in that game, who knows. I want my planetside clone and I don't want it from a ****** group of dumbasses who care more about their CEO's yearly salary than what they are doing.
