PlanetSide 2 receives huge update

Sony Online Entertainment have just released the Game Update 13 for PlanetSide 2, a huge patch that makes hundreds of changes. Some of the more notable changes include:

- Automated server recommendations
- Improved respawn logic
- An improved tutorial
- New weapons and other equipment
- Vehicle reworks
- UI tweaks
- Lots of gameplay rebalancing

SOE have been putting a lot of effort into updating the free-to-play PlanetSide 2, with the various updates receiving mixed responses from fans. In particular, the ‘Lattice System’ released a couple of months ago has pleased some fans in it’s reduction of capping unmanned stations, but angered those who feel that it put too much of a focus on ‘zerging’. It’s looking like on the whole, SEO are listening to fans though, and presumably hope to get the game into a good state for release on the Playstation 4.

I'm updating now. /jk
I want PS4 already! :(

If you have mid range PC, you should be able to play it.

Choose Vanu when you get it on the PS3. Best faction just terrible outfits. They have the best guns (no bullet drop), hover tanks (can strafe while bearing front armor to enemies), Scythe, and their proxy mines are the hardest to spot.

Only problem is they have the worst base positioning that are closest to the HQ in all three continent. Absolutely, no strategic natural defenses like cliffs, water, mountains, etc.

lol I have a feeling when I get this on PS4 I'm going to be absolutely destroyed.

windblowsagain4692d ago

It's alot deeper then i thought it was.

And PS4 will have no trouble running this maxed @ 1080p. It could probably push the textures further tbh.

windblowsagain4692d ago

lol @ the disagrees.

PS4 would have no problem running this, disagreeing isn't going to change that.

1080p 60fps+ better textures - check.

It's not exactly a graphical monster.

Killzone Shadowfall smokes it easily.

starchild4692d ago

Killzone Shadow fall doesn't have a fraction of the scale of Planetside 2 and doesn't look that much better anyway.

If you are expecting a solid 60fps on PS4, I think you are going to be disappointed.

And better textures? Really? They haven't said anything about that and you are just jumping to conclusions based on your faulty understanding of the technology.

They sold the entire company. I did like when they ran Everquest as well. But numbers were declining unfortunately

Watch it turn out to be Amazon in disguise

Was such a cool concept back in the day - shame that it never really took off like it probably could have with more support
