In MMO shooter Planetside 2, a vague continent was promised that is supposed to be empty so that players can shape and populate it.
Promised golden autumn did not happen
Several months ago, John Smedley, the then-president of the studio, announced a golden September for the MMO shooter Planetside 2. With update 2.0, they would address some of the core issues of the game. September is almost over, Smedley has left the company, and there was no sign of a golden September.
Since the port to the Playstation 4, it has been quite quiet around Planetside 2. The mood among fans on PC is not the best. The impression is: We have been waiting for new developments for so long while PS2 made its way to the Playstation 4. Should we now continue to wait for it to come to Xbox One?
The video provides a brief introduction to Planetside 2 to make the start easier:
Now the developers were guests at a Q&A on reddit: They could or would not set a real exclamation mark there. They are working on the game every day and are aware of the bugs. In response to a fan’s question about when the Xbox One version will come, they replied that technicians were doing initial groundwork, but the focus is on PC and Playstation 4.
The most interesting thing here is a “Construction System” that allows players to build temporary fortifications even outside of bases. When asked if a new continent is coming, the developers responded by asking how players would like a pretty empty continent that players could then populate and shape themselves.
In addition to the construction system for both systems, there are changes to the login system for PS4 or to the leaders for PC on the Planetside-“We-are-working-on-this” road map.
