So I started playing Planetside 2.

And I remembered the reason I suck shit at all MMOs, I can never figure out what to do :( I'm completely lost.

  • I didn't like it. I thought it would be amazing because "thousands of players" but apart from the occasional huge firefight on open ground it's just small engagements or overcrowded bases.

  • Try and make some friends while you're playing, it will help out a lot if you have a group to go with. Otherwise head for the flashing points on the map because those point to fights over the bases.

    Luckily I have friends that basically held my hand through my first experience. I love the game, it's one of the greatest gaming experiences multi-player wise.

  • I'd just stop playing it, I tried desperately to get into the game, to try to enjoy it. There isn't a single ounce of enjoyment to come out of that game, it's basically a P2W game.

  • I tried it once and had no clue what was going on, Totalbiscuit did a video on the basics like 3 weeks later and I have been playing great ever since. The video is before all these new updates but the basics pretty much carry over.

      I can understand that. I felt the same way the the first week or so. It is very overwhelming at first. Just go into any area that is in current battle. Something that helps a lot is going onto your Social Tab and joining a squad. There are usually more during alerts. Just join one and you'll have a team of sorts to follow and fight with. They usually follow objective markers and such, so it should help you out a lot. If you're good enough, they'll send you an invite to join the outfit. I'm currently with the 418 with the New Conglomerate.
