Excellent concept, mixed execution. There's no other game quite like it, but you have to 'forgive' many, many things about the game.
Networking gets nuts, the meta ends up all over the place, and at this point it feels like new weapons are intentionally broken for the first couple weeks and rebalanced later to entice people to buy them before they're balanced.
That being said, I'm never going to get tired of falling in with a massive tank column or infantry charge knowing that every single vehicle and soldier is an actual player. It's a tough game to get into, and the monetization can be rough, but I find it to be a special experience nonetheless.

So much potential... fun for a bit but poor execution.
The game still has a frequent player base which is surprising taking in count how old it is.
I sucked at this but it was still a ton of fun.
oh man, where to start... there is an innumerable amount of things wrong with this game so i cant possibly give it a possibly give it a positive review even though i would like to. I had an absolute blast playing this on PS4 due to the novelty and breadth of content but rampant poorly thought out and poorly executed updates on top of general buggy and bad game design led me to quickly drop it once i made the shift to PC. fun, but not worth the headache.
Dont remember much about this game, just know i played it.
Full scale war with all the monotonous boredom included
Mi amigo me dijo que lo jugara, me iba lag
no South America servers.
Honestly a really fun game if you have either the time or the PC to handle it.
Played a ton around release and enjoyed the spectacle of battles with hundreds of players, but the MTX drove me away and kept me away
Joguei com um amigo, abandonei ele tbm.
you ran so fast in this game
Never liked PlanetSide and never will. I like the concept so I gave it two chances and it failed twice.
Never seen a shooter with this much scope, quite impressive and ran well on my decent-enough PC. Doesn't begin balanced whatsoever for new players, but can grind as a support for a while. Good shooter mechanics overall.
I learned all of my racial slurs on this one
if this shit was good, it would be so good
Probably the only PvP FPS I've ever enjoyed!
Best FPS-MMO to date.
je sais plus rien
There were few moments but, sometimes, you could really feel you were in a big, dynamic battle.
Kinda like being a clone in SW

was extremely fun for a while but playerbase is very very low and devs are not great and gameplay is VERY dated for current day
Cool and unique idea. Horrible people behind it nowadays.
If someone else picked up a game like this and made it even better, this could possibly be a banger concept and would stick out of the mass of FPS full of just small lobbies.
Big scale shooters can be super fun when so many people randomly meet up and fight for giant bases.
Glad I was able to play it during its good phase and not the hot garbage it unfortunately has become.

Planetside 2 has stumbled every step of its journey. The game is incredibly grindy, poorly balanced, and while it has a number of unique features it doesn't use them well.
it would be more fun if there was separate servers for people who wanted to coordinate, but that's impossible to design.
Pretty fun. The "big team" nature of it is fun until I was getting demolished by people who played this game for years. A little laggy but it is a pretty old game.
Era até que divertido, mas a jogatina não dura muito, mas tem a ideia interessante de ser um jogo ultra massivo.
This game was an alright shooter game. It's serviceable but it feels derivative with the only really special thing about it being the MASSIVE amount of players that can be fitted on a single server, and it's free the play.
The most fun I had with this game was with the streams that Ross Scott did back in 2016 where I played under the handle Hamburger FreedomMan where I played under the New Conglomerate and shouted at the other team - acting overly patriotic and shouting catchphrases uttered by Hulk Hogan.
That, and accidentally getting blown up by Ross Scott himself after I decided to ram my car into the other team - only to bounce off it like a pinball before being on the receiving end of a slightly off-target rocket.
Fun with friends but kind of a grind otherwise.

I enjoyed it for a bit after it was first released (back when it required a subscription). It couldn't hook me for that long though.
Three-way all-out warfare on massive maps sounds awesome in concept, but realistically it just boils down to 2 factions fighting over specific control points for hours. Still - it did the premise better than Battlefield 2042 did.

Good game, bad servers, bad people, bad company decisions
