Nexume- Search the Knowledge Base/ Tech Forums at the Planetside website. There’s sure to be information on the hard crashes that you’re experiencing.

Say, RPS, if you guys would need a measly low level character for, I don’t know, distraction…I’d love to join you. This weekend, you say…?

Always wanted to check out Planetside but never had a good opportunity. Just downloaded the 14 client but am running into a crash bug once everything loads to drop me in-game. No decent error messages, the game just ceases to function and Windows shoots me a “This program is not responding” box. Running Windows Vista 32 bit with plenty of disk space/ram/graphics capability. Tried running from a windowed screen also did not work. Any help would be appreciated!

Man, Planetside was good times. I played in the Reserves for a while, it was great, free to play, but you had a level cap.

How much is it to play again? If I get a subscription, can I get the client for free?

I know I took a look at it when you guys first announced this, but from what I saw, it looks like you still need to buy the client at $20, plus $15 a month.

I don’t mind the sub cost, but I don’t really want to pay for a game this old, that was essentially free in the past. Is there anyway I can play without having to buy it?

Yes I know there’s a trial, but I want to play longer than 2 weeks.

‘Ello there, RPS blog! You’ve always been my favorite gaming blog, so when I heard you guys were starting an outfit in Planetside, I told my Outfit. ^^

We’re with the Vanu Sovereignty.

Just thought I’d offer condolences for beating on you when you tried to use the tanks the first time. ^^ Ghosts of the Revolution might’ve been a bit responsible for that.

See ya’ next weekend, sucka’s! :D

I didn’t do too well during the weekend op (despite being in a picture woo!), but I think I’ve finally started to hit my stride as a full-specc’d engie with some aggressively placed Spitfires.

It’s a bit tough, since I find myself playing alone a lot of the time (the vent channel is usually pretty quiet), but I’m starting to get the hang of doing it effectively, and it’ll only get better once I’m able to coordinate with people and make proper use of the more advanced deployables (Field Turrets, Aegis shields, etc).

My trial’ll run out at the beginning of next week, though. I’ll probably know by then if I plan to stay on or not.

I hope you only had the vegetation turned on for those screenshots you nOOb!

For those real noobs make sure to turn of veg so you can see the mines before you roll/step on them.

Played for 4 years solid. TF2/L4D now. :)

Btw to those that didn’t “get” PS its because you never were able to be part of a highly EFFECTIVE TEAM. More then any other fps in the history of gaming, PS teamwork, tactics and strategy triumphed all. In other words old men could kick the asses of the young.

Heck, people are still playing MidiMaze, which….I don’t even know when that originated, but it certainly is primitive, running on some variety of computer no longer made. It’s a regular event at the local gaming convention.

I did hop on a little bit last Saturday but didn’t really understand the game all that much. I’ll have to join in next weekend.

Crazy game. Quite fun, though, and my mediocre comp. runs it well.
