I have been thinking about getting back into this game.  My question is I wonder if anybody else does.  I don't want to start up the game update everything and then there is only 10 people still playing.  If anyone still plays or knows someone if you could give me a run of the population that would be great!
Thanks in advance.

Have you tried the official Planetside forum?  Or the Planetside forum on gamespot?  You would probally be more liekly to get an answer there...

I was thinking about it, too, but I remember every time I start playing, it always kinda sucks 'cause there's too many vehicles around :p So I decided to go to EQ2, then LoTR online

I played Planetside again for a few weeks a couple of months ago. The population is pretty good. Theyve reduced the number of servers to condense the people playing.

IMO the game is too old now. it just isnt what it once was. But to answer your question, theres a decent number of people still playing to get a good experience out of it.

They have condensed the servers, with more condensing happening soon iirc. Not sure if it's :) or :( tbh.

It needs a major revamp, gfx wise and they need to introduce new game modes. BF2142 basically takes teh best elements of PS and adds new ones that PS should have had by now but SOE just doens't put that much into it. The game gets basically one major content update per year and it's four years old now.

BUT it still has experiences of the fps variety that you won't get anywhere else. If u like this then try out WW2:Online too.
