PlanetSide Going Free2Pay

[Starman]

It seems that SoE are following in the foot steps of Funcom's Anarchy-Online by offering a limited form of PS totally free for a year (Note Funcom also offer AO free for a year before extending it 'until further notice').

Subscription Free - "Fodder Program"
New Players will be able to create a new account and and play for free for a period of 12 months. The new account will have limitations on the BattleRank (+ or - BR8) and the CommandRank (+ or - CR2). Essentially, new players will be able to have access to any part of the game but they will be limited on the diversity of their arsenal. Time Frame – We are shooting for February 14th for Launch.

So who is going to re-enter the world of Planetside once again?

[Fana]

Never tried it before but might take a peek at it when this goes live

[Tallen]

It's a good game, the problem was always it required a subs fee, i'll be coming back for sure

[Dommers]

I'll have a go at it

[Nive11en]

Nice, I'll definitly check it out. Never played a MMOFPS, if thats how it should be called?

[Fafnir]

Just played for 17 days, hit br20, cr3 this weekend and got really bored...

[Astral\]

I'll try it out for sure.

As a tip, try out Werner if you're in Europe, but if you find you're getting odd laggy problems, try out Emerald for a bit - for some reasons it varies with some nights Werners fine, some nights Emerald - even though it's over in the states - is waaay more reliable, quicker and less laggy...

I've been playing there just over a year now, VS on Werner (LittlestHobo & RalphWiggum, Immortal Serial Killers), HoboSmurf & Bootsie, NC on Emerald (ISK Death Dealin' Smurfs)

The Reserves program is now open and running
