Planetside 2 will OUTCLASS Halo 4

Planetside 2 is honestly going to make Halo look and seem ancient with 500 v 500 battles, adaptive gameplay that changes on the fly, and arsenal of weapons. Visually, Halo 4 is already ancient to this game.

I've seen way more of planetside than halo 4, I don't even have an xbox anymore.

Planetside2 is gens ahead of Halo4, in gfx and gameplay.

Its not even fair to compare them.

Pay to win garbage.

What wont out class Halo 4? Halo is nothing special unless you only own an XBOX.

Halo is a good series, it probably does splitscreen and matchmaking better then any other game. I'd say the multiplayer and campaign are a bit "meh", but the co-op is great fun and the multiplayer is hectic (if a bit unbalanced and old fashioned).

But you can't really compare them, and neither are out yet. Personally I'm way more excited for Planetside 2, since I'm tired of so much Halo and don't know if 343 can bring back the Bungie goodness we saw before, but Planetside 2 is MASSIVE and beautiful and also free.

Hell yeah. BF3 has an identity crisis going on. It is half built for the consoles, half built for the PC, thus it suffers on both platforms in different areas.

After reading on Planetside 2 I am convinced they are 2 different games. But to be honest there is not a better universe in FPS's than Halo. So no FPS actually outclasses it. Halo has its own look, feel, and already put its mark in History. Sales, reviews, and the number of players who still play the game verifies that.

This is something new to System Wars. It is called logic and using a logical answer and response. It is a statement of fact.

Funny, Planetside actually outclasses the majority of FPSs today. The only thing holding it back now is a very dated engine. Mechanics wise, it's a much more rewarding shooter than pretty much everything else on the market.

But because you pointed out that I'm a level 70 mod who is obviously just trolling, that makes you superior to me and nobody should listen. Is that what you were getting at?

Actually everything you've posted about quality is just opinion. Sure, we know the Halo formula, but a lot of people don't like that. So yes, you're still arguing on the basis of your opinion. As am I. However, I'm not telling people that my opinion is fact and that you're wrong because you're trolling.

If Halo has the best universe in gaming then Battlefield has the best single player mode in gaming and Modern Warfare 2 has the best PC support in gaming.

I doubt.

And Im certain we will see Planetside 2 becoming pay to win.

There are few f2p games that arent P2W, or becomes later in the life. Dota 2 isnt p2w atm, and probably will never be as long as icefrog has voice in making that game. Game that became p2w later is heroes of newerth, early access (since that released hero is OP as hell) is p2w.

[QUOTE="Wasdie"]

[QUOTE="WarTornRuston"] Perhaps waiting for it to actually release would be smart before making an ignorant claim. Just a thought. The last Planetside released almost a decade ago? We know the Halo formula. Pretty sad when mods that are a level 70 have joined the troll club. Not really shocked.

of course since it's made by Sony.

anything Sony can outclass anying M$ can come up with. M$ still clinging to a franchise from 10 years ago. pathetic indeed.

Planetside 2 might not be garbage, but its highly likely that it will be P2W. FPS is all about the guns (im captain obvious!), so its best to sell those as microtransaction, like team fortress 2 does.

Man you are really really mad.

Planetside in it's current form is nothing like the game that was reviewed in 2003. It's far more robust with very few of the major issues that plauged the launch. The only reason why it's not heavily played is because it's 10 years old and still a subscription based game.

I can say without a shadow of a doubt that it's the better experiance for competitive multiplayer. Unless you've actually played Planetside recently. Sure it's not more popular, but more popular never makes a game better. The Halo series is bigger yes, but that doesn't mean that it's a better experience.

As for Planetside 2 vs. Halo 4, you haven't actually played Halo 4 either. It's by a new studio and they are taking the series in a different directing of Bungie. So you really have no idea where Halo 4 is headed. Everything I've seen about it (the multiplayer loadouts and armor abilities/perks) is a good indication that it's not going to be the Halo experiance that I am going to enjoy at all. Halo 2 and 3 had it right, Halo Reach really ruined the competitive aspect with broken armor abilities. Now they are adding in things like dedicated sprint, loadouts, and perks and possibly even kill streak rewards.

As for Planetside 2 they are making a lot of great changes to the Planetside formula to update it to be competitive with modern FPSs. However this does mean they are sacrificingsome of the proven mechanics. We'll see how it turns out.

Considering that Halo 4 is such a departure from other Halo games while Planetside 2 is made by the same people who have now built an entire game engine just for the needs of the game AND is on the PC where they are not held back by aged hardware (just look at the videos of Planetside 2, they are beautiful), I think Planetside 2 is going to be the far more enjoyable experience.

Sure you can have a differing opinion, but you cannot just discredit somebody elses opinion because you're bringing in past games that 343 has had absolutely nothing to do with. But but by all means please continue to do so. Without people like you, System Wars would be too boring.

Nope. The store is selling EXP boosters (so you don't have to grind as long) and cosmetic items only. Even without the boosters they say it will take a dedicated Planetside 2 player (using averages collected from planetside 1) about a year to unlock everything. This puts it on par with Planetside. Of course you could speed that up.

They are not selling anything that gives you a in-game advantage. That has been a major focus since day one. Nearly every interview with the main developer has had him mentioning they are not going to make the game Pay to Win in any way.

Of course this all remains to be seen, but considering they've been building this game around a F2P mechanic since it's development, I can absolutly believe it. TF2 was never built to be F2P.

themajormayor

On the subject of quality measured by the industry, there is really only one way to determine was is considered the best of all time and that's usually by looking at what's the most popular and considered by those who are revered in the industry as expert critics as the best.

Yes it falls under argumentative fallacies, but we are arguing over opinions, not facts, so it becomes much more of a gray area. Even if we can prove that the majority of the gaming industry believes that X game is the best game ever made, that is still just an opinion. Thus the gray area. It's not like arguing against a major scientific law or something that can be considered fact from all points of view.

[QUOTE="casharmy"]

[QUOTE="WarTornRuston"] You never even hear about the game anymore. (The first Planetside) And I already posted why Halo is a better series. Sales, Reviews, The number of people playing it now. But keep hyping something that hasn't even been released yet and saying it is already better than an established series. Why not. Lets all get Mad Cow Disease and just post one ignorant comment after another. Lets go ahead and throw some jelly gifs is as well, do some Microsoft and EA bashing and talk about how Console gamers are broke and are to stupid to play PC games. I will stick with common sense.

So, I take it you like halo?

lol, I am not even going to roll on you about it man.

Sometimes I have made irratinal posts in defense of Demon's Souls and stated my opinon as fact because I felt a certian way about the game. In hind sight I know some of my arguments might have been more personal preference and opinion than anything else. The way you are arguing in defense on Halo, I figured you might feel the same way.

Lets take two people both want same rifle. They normally play same amount daily, but the other one has booster. That means he gets the gun faster (which probably is better than the other dude has). That is pay to win - Not straight one like "I buy this gun with money, does 50 percent more damage than majority of other players' guns", but still is.

Edit: He buys booster with real money, gets gun faster. Where in that its not p2w? True that the other player gets the gun too, but much later.
