In one sense, it’s pointless to write a review of Planetside 2 because there’s one school of thought that says reviews offer guidance to readers as to whether this product is worth your hard earned cash. Planetside 2 is free to play, so there is no cash involved. What becomes important then, is the question “Is this game worth your time?” And the answer to that, especially when compared to other MMOs and how they have approached the free to play model, is “Yes.” This isn’t the greatest competitive, multiplayer game in the world, but at the cost of free, with relatively few restraints on the player, it’s a pretty good one.
Planetside 2’s future is uncertain as the IP was sold for a relatively low sum to a company with no history.
The last Live Letter is done and we were all surprised at the announcement of a delay to the release of FFXIV's Endwalker expansion, we got some more details about the MMORPG's new PvP Crystal Conflict mode, and some system details. Then we talk about PlanetSide 2's new continent and LOTRO's new expansion before wrapping up with some good changes for Ubisoft and Blizzard... but are they enough? All that and more on this week's Always Online!
PlanetSide 2 is going to be getting its next major expansion this December. This new addition, titled “Expedition: Oshur” will be the first addition in almost seven years to bring an entirely new continent to the game.
Hands down the BEST FPS out!
