planetside 2 or fallen earth

Post by zombie »

hey guys, as posted earlier im looking to get into a new game during my upcoming layoff. ive narrowed it down to these two so just looking for advice. planetside looks really promising but the pay system might just be a huge flaw.. fallen earth is a tad over the hill but looks decent and seems to have ok reviews. i just cant take the leap to start playing neo again, seems kinda pointless at this point!!

Planetside and Fallen Earth are very different shooters.

Planetside is the game you can jump on kill a few ppl, take over a base or two, log off - no worries.

Fallen Earth is a FPSRPG you need to take time in playing, like Neocron. Its more work then play.

If you are looking for a neocron replacement, have you ever thought about actually playing neocron on the new server with the brand new patch, there are at least a couple of hundred ppl or more on at prime times, and lots of sxr playing...

Also a ton of ppl in sxr are playing planetside 2( think we have around 25 members in the sxr outfit). Not sure anyone in sxr ever plays FE any more, but I guess the FE servers are probably quite populated...

Firefall sounds like a game that may meet your specs. ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FE33L3dTk
MMORPG has 9,000 beta keys left for this coming weekend ---> http://www.mmorpg.com/giveaways.cfm/off ... out-2.html .
It couldn't hurt for you to give that game a try, as it sounds closest to what you may be looking for.
I may try it this weekend myself, just to get that curiosity out of my system.

I still recommend Planetside 2 above all else at this point though.
