Or, you know, Halo, or Call of Duty, or the new Medal of Honor, and things like that.

You know, the games that are pretty much guarunteed to sell and score better? Yeah.

Then Planetside 2 comes out and mops the floor with Dust 514.

64 player matches with some interaction from the guys in EVE or 1500+ player matches over 80km battlefields on a 6000 man server.

A lot of people in my MAG clan are interested in this. I'll give it a shot when it comes out.

Well, I didn't think I had to mention it's made by an extremely experienced FPS team who built a custom engine catered for MMOs.

Apparently I do.

Planetside 2's gameplay is pretty much a much more refined version of the original. They scrapped the crappy cone of fire and hitscan for projectile weapons and iron sights, they added a physics engine for all of the vehicles, dynamic day and night cycles that have a massive impact on world lighting requiring players to use different tactics in the different light, the map is now a large hex-based grid where each single grid section is tactically important making you fight for more than just chokepoints.

I already mentioned the scale of the game and the size of the map...

I could go on and on. It's going to be the far superior game and I think it will end up being the most talked about when it finally launches. It's going to be a revolution for FPSs.

They should sell better, considering Dust is F2P :p

Well Planetside 2 has built in VoiP, a built in command structure, outfights (just like guilds) that can work together, and has a playerbase of highly coordinated and highly motivated gamers.

The maps are also much more spread out. They aren't just 3-4 linear paths to a large objective with obstacles in the way, they are open and sprawling which encourage large amounts of tactics.

In Planeside 1 you would often see clashes of 30-40 tanks while planes buzzed around overhead and infantry fought all around them. Each side was incredibly coordinated. They would draw their resources from a pool so it wasn't just a spamfest of units. Each unit you killed had a startegic value that would hurt the enemy in some way. Each time you died it woudl hurt your side in some way.

What I find really neat is how engineers can build turrets and dynamic cover anywhere in the world. Essentially you can set up your own forward outposts away from the base and fight from. Of course, all of this requires the players to have leveled up and unlocked this stuff.

It's going to be excellent. Dust 514 doesn't have much to stand on against Planetside 2 other than the fact it's on the PS3 and nothing like it has really been done before. That's not really a recepie for success either.

Game sounds interesting and I'll download it since it's free. Having said that Planetside 2 look significantly better. KC_Hokie

I don't understand why they don't also have a PC version. It would make the most sense since the game is free to play and their fanbase is already on the PC.

Dust 514 looks nice and I will give it a look when it comes to the PC,but Planetside 2 looks way better than it though.

Sounds like MAG round 2(loved MAG)

If they can just nail the gameplay this could be a really awesome game (especially for a F2P)

Well the guys making Planetside 2 say that right now there is absolutly no console verison in the works.

I'm not saying it *couldn't* happen. There is nothing in that game you couldn't do with a controller. The game even supports in-game VoiP already so you would just have to redo the menus.

Honestly it would be logical if these new F2P games made it to the consoles. It's just the consoles online network does not allow for quick updates and is a major pain for online games.

It will flop in "sales" if it doesn't come out on PC.

It won't. Call of Duty haters and lovers will spam the forums, when the new game gets announced.

Too niche of a shooter for PS3 I think.

If by "everyone" you mean pretty much NOBODY outside of the forums, and even WITHIN the forums discussion/care will be equally miniscule...

then yes........"everyone" will be talking about Dust514 :lol:

Seriously, Halo 4, Call of Duty Iron Wolf, Medal of Honor, etc....

I don't buy the bigger = better argument. Maybe it's just my previous experience from playing MAG, but there reaches a point when there's just too many players.

Ummmmmm no.

Not too interested, I know next to nothing about this game. It doesn't look all that interesting honestly, there are already a bunch of MP games out now and more coming out down the line, I don't see how this game is going to stand out from the crowd.

Halo 4 and COD are going to be the most talked about FPS games this year without a doubt. On the Sony front I don't know why they arn't marketing Star Hawk more, it's actually a very fun online game based off the Beta so far. It has alot of potential to be great, I just hope it has a good SP as well.

You used future and present tense in your topic title. I am now confused. D:
