in the past


The game still has a frequent player base which is surprising taking in count how old it is.

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.

Honestly a really fun game if you have either the time or the PC to handle it.

rather p2w but the fights were fun

Probably the only PvP FPS I've ever enjoyed!


Joguei com um amigo, abandonei ele tbm.

you ran so fast in this game

An amazing experience at its best, but it's never at its best.

Never liked PlanetSide and never will. I like the concept so I gave it two chances and it failed twice.

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

I learned all of my racial slurs on this one

Just felt janky for all the time I logged on PS4. I hear the game has been revived on PC, but I'm not interested.

It's surprising how this game released in 2012. Incredibly fun and actually makes you feel like you're in a massive international war. Some of the insane fights i've had in some of the main objectives were experiences unmatched by any fps, though the grindy nature of the unlocks is offputting to say the least.

I played this game back when I had a doodoo PC and I just remember it running like shit and that's 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

The gunfights are so cool to get into but i quickly felt like everything was kinda pointless and quit.

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.

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.

I sucked at this but it was still a ton of fun.

buen concepto ojalá lo hubiese hecho un estudio competente porque seria la recaña

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.

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.

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.

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.

Planetside 2 is fun to just mess around nd never play the objective at all. I've had more fun flying a helicopter into a mountain than actually killing my enemies in this game. It is fun, but not for the right reasons.

if this shit was good, it would be so good
