Drawing parallels to Battlefield for its massive multiplayer battles, PlanetSide 2 offers superior scale and ambition. However, it lacks the narrative depth found in titles like Halo.

Not recommended anymore

2015 was the last time I played this and back then it was amazing and justly won a "game of the year" award - but having an itch for it recently I went back in to find - wall to wall aimbots, wallhacks, bugs, WAAY OP classes, ridiculous cosmetics, very little team co-operative play and a whole bunch of NOPE !

12 years ago this game took a significant amount of my free time (and I even paid for the monthly perks), my faction group (Terran Empire) was doing TRAINING twice a week for newer players for solo and team play tactics - when to call a maxcrash and when not to, teaching people what skill perks to work on first and a whole load of things to give them an edge from your average clueless n00b.

Seems that community has died off and been replaced with Fortnite "I only play for me and the rest can GFT" mentality not caring if the faction dominates the area or not.

If you want to play this game for mindless shooting - go ahead, but you'll just be more fodder for the cheaters ready to pick you off with a headshot at impossibly long distance while you're on a quadbike. (which I only ever managed ONCE and completely by accident - headshotted as an infil (Overwatch was my speciality) some poor b'tard on a quad who was behind the target I was aiming at - god he was P1SSED - lol makes me grin now to think of it)

But honestly, there's better ways to waste your life.

I know this is waaaay past it mattering, but if the guys who were responsible for this "sequel" had just modified Planetside 1 with modern day graphics, people would be so much happier than they are now. That game was a masterpiece of a genre that nobody gave a damn about.

great game!
