<div class="IPBDescription">(Mass Co-Ordination In A Game!)</div> Lets get the ball rolling with the video:

<a href='http://www.planetside-universe.com/files/index.php?file=69' target='_blank'>http://www.planetside-universe.com/files/i...dex.php?file=69</a>

Followed by the pretty (a few are alittle dull) pictures.
(All taken by me, hence the plain area's - blame the 1.4 Athlon!)
<a href='http://homepage.ntlworld.com/pete.taylor2/PlanetSide/' target='_blank'>http://homepage.ntlworld.com/pete.taylor2/PlanetSide/</a>


Even if you have no interest whatsoever in PlanetSide you should
still watch the video.... it's that good!


Feedback/comments/similar video's... all welcome.


(Just a quick EDIT here, I watched the video using the <a href='http://www.divx.com/divx/player/index.php' target='_blank'>DivX Player</a> but there's a codec
bundled in the .zip for Windows Media Player should you want to take that route.
Finally, I feel the urge to remind you all that there are NO bots/AI players
in PlanetSide.... EVERYTHING is done PvP - Player Versus Player. Happy viewing!)

    That's **** <i>awesome</i>.

    If PlanetSide were like that all the time, there's no doubt I'd be hooked.

    When I played it, I got stuck with annoying 12 year old idiots who'd crash our Galaxy into a baseful of enemies. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    <b>Edit:</b> The way they call in airstrikes to soften towers is just wickedcool.

    That was really wicked, but sadly in massive online games there are always idiots who just won't listen to what you say <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
    But once I build my new comp PS is definetly one of the games im planning on getting.

    EDIT: I watched it again and just have to stress how awesome that was, just, whoa.

    If all the members of this forum community banded together to form a Guild (I forget the PS term for it [I've been out too damn long]), we could be the best in the game.

    If only my computer could've handled Planetside. I got less than 20 FPS with the settings the lowest they could be. Awesome video, now I can see how Planetside was <i>meant</i> to be played.

    i saw some of the people had (No Outfit) instead of (SturmGrenadier)

    so they're probably called outfits.

    and yeah. maybe we could.

    Hm Ive only been in like 3 battles that weel coordinated. Those are the battles that actually give you dreams about the game. But I say that video sucks major arse jsut cuz of the crappy over played Evanesence song. Woulda been better with some heavy metal or some Electronica. (kidding that movie rocked)

    Wow... the amount of coordination on that was waaaay cool. Felt like I was watching some major incursion from a war or something (wait, it is!). So bloody cool. Until they played the bloody evanesence song. So ruined the mood. You try ignoring it but.. argh..

    It's great getting up in the morning (ok 1pm but so what?)
    and seeing lotsa interesting comments in your topic. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Tonight will be my 3rd "day" (in a sense) of PlanetSide.
    I'm playing it with 4 people I know very well (1 of them I work with).

    The past couple of battle i've taken part in have been mainly cases
    of viewing the map to see where needs assistance, and then going
    with the guys to do what we can.
    We don't always manage to hold the Bases/Facilities/etc but its great
    fun learning the ropes and blowing the crap outta the other teams.

    But tonight (might be tommorow) i've been promised a "planned attack".
    Which is, apparently, an amazing site compared to what I've been doing so far.

    If there are any people here who play on the Werner Server
    and would like to join in on our attacks then simply PM me and i'll
    send you all the info you need.

    I cannot download that file. If somebody would find me the link for the EXACT download [i dont know how] then I could ask telstra to put it on their server so we could download it for free off them.

    =/

    Well, its worth a try

    PLanetside has its own good and bad points

    Good: Nice models for the most part. Its like CS Without the CS Commnity (well on werner anyways it is) and without the bunny hopping and 1 shot kill sniper rifles and stuff. The Vehicles are fun no matter what side your on

    Bad: There are a bunch of idiots playing (but theres like 5 thousand people on a server so its pretty rare fromw hat ive seen). Jackhammer. Nuff said. Surge implat + Agile Armor

    Ugly: Rocket Spam. 12 year old kids on team speak.

    Not even the music could ruin a video of that awesomeness. Now I want to buy Planetside. Of course, then I'd have to pay a monthly fee and all that. Oh well. Nice video.

    I used to play PlanetSide. When it came time to buy another GameCard, I got Earth and Beyond instead (Even though there were no GameCards)

    Was so good with the reaver <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    And I got in the beta,it was awesome!

    I think the fee is $12 a month. But there's plenty of "7 days free"
    and "30 days free" floating around if you're willing to download
    a big file. (We're talking 1.4 gig here so be careful)


    Nice to see such positive feedback. Thanks guys, keep it up
    and remember to contact me via PM if you'd like to join in.

    That's a good idea guy_back_there_on_first_page. The members of this forum should get together and do something together in some game world....something with no monthly fee.

    Thats the directory should you feel the urge to go browse them.
    (Bare in mind that all images up to 20-something were using my
