Planetside Preview
Over on Worthplaying there is a massive preview of Planetside, the soon to be released massively multiplayer online action game from Sony Online Entertainment:
Ever since the FPS genre has been introduced people have been looking for a game that would have hundreds and thousands of players fighting against each other, wishing for such large-scale battles that most people thought that a game that would cater to it would never be realized. Battlefield 1942 tapped into this wish, but even on the biggest Bf1942 servers the player count peaks at 64. With the development and implementation of Sony Online’s PlanetSide, large scale battles of thousands of foot soldiers and vehicles across vast continents are no longer a wish, but rather a dream come true.
PlanetSide’s scope is almost too vast to effectively describe in a mere preview. At its core the game is a massively multiplayer first person shooter with role-playing game elements. Each player creates their character, first picking what side of the conflict they wish to fight for and then general character creation bits such as face type, gender, and the voice set. Thanks VE3D
