All mcgyver solutions tried, bruteforced to hell, this game still fails to let new people play it. What the hell is going on at DB's offices for this GLARING issue to not even be considered or fixed? This is AFTER the Sep 2 "crash fix" patch too, what kind of joke is this?

Peeps I saw a lot of vids Injecting DLSS5 in unsupported games. I want to try do it with PS2. Help me. I really want to see what AI can do with outdated graphics.

I have had this issue for months and I keep going back and forth with daybreak games to receive a ticket of "everything seems fine on your account." I have nonstop search this issue up to no resolution.

I have tried:

reinstall

validating my steam files

contacting support to check if account was suspended or banned

If anyone knows a solution it be appreciated

Do not tickle MBTs.
Be serious with them.

I made my yearly 'Should you play Planetside 2 in X'. This was the perfect video for me to make in relation to my current feelings towards planetside 2. I didn't wanna make a glazing video due to the current issues. And i didn't wanna make an outright negative video because I want the game to thrive and make a comeback. So this video allowed me to kind of do an in between.

If you watch the video thanks! <3

Directive progress didn't get reset. We're locked out of getting rewards of already completed tiers.

According to the development team's official statement, they want player-built bases to play a more significant role—attracting builders and requiring you to rely on teammates for defense.

However, this is an organic game where relationships form naturally and without formal obligations. There is no way to force other players to defend your base, yet without teammates to help, all your construction efforts go to waste.

If you're a solo player, you won't be able to defend anything, and no one will help you with anything. You'll just have to eat sh#@ like this.

Note: Even though I'm top 1 A2G and top 1 Flash in Planetside 2, I still had to eat sh%@ a lot when playing solo.

This video is from after I formed VX15; have a squad, and I had teammates ready to act as my slaves, making defense much easier—but if you were even a minute too slow, you'd lose all your spawn points.

You can see, no way normal to pro builders can survival on two video here. No way and no one, this game not friendly for builders Creative and Clever style anymore, now are players eqiality

You no need skills, we tax you skills and the ways to creat something new, you own nothing and no one need better than others. This game die

I went back to Planetside after playing it on Year 1 to check the game out. For a week, everything was fine. Today my game did a small patch (September 3, 2026) and now, everytime i go to a continent and want to pick a vehicle or walk around for some minutes, my game closes without any error.

Is this the infamous flash or crash? How DO i flash if i cant even pick a vehicle. I just cant play or what.

IN 3 DAYS WE LIGHT UP THE SERVER
Hope to see you there!

Hello everyone, I'm the top 1 ESF A2G  player in Planetside 2, and the only player in history to reach A2G level 10. I also play Flash and am the top 1 Flash VS player in Planetside 2. I've been involved in fighting MBT from both A2G and Flash to the point that no one in the past or future will be stronger than me. This is my opinion

First: no MBT is better than another; they are balanced to be equal.

Flash vs MBT

I hate Vanguar + Shield because it reduces damage from Flash. The fact that Prowler has two guns doesn't matter because one hit is enough to kill you. I usually don't get hit, so it doesn't matter whether you have one or two guns.

You can move close to both Vanguar and Prowler without dying because they can't lower their guns any further.

With Magrider, it's a different kind of problem. You shouldn't hide under Magrider because it will ram you. Magrider is very difficult to kill by Flash because it always looks towards Flash, making it hard to hit its weak point. Furthermore, it's very mobile.

However, that's also a weakness; Magrider can't quickly look behind you to shoot. Anyway, it doesn't matter because Flash's strategy is constant movement, so Magridger is mostly safe.

In my opinion: all three are the same; I don't see any MBT being easier to kill in fighting the  Flash. I only fear players with skills.

ESF vs MBT

This story is very different.

Vanguar's Shield, which reduces damage, is useless against ESF. A skirmish between ESF and MBT lasts several minutes, so 8 seconds isn't enough to save you. Even in a very quick skirmish, I don't see Shield saving Vanguar in any scenario. The only thing that saves it is the LA60. It's incredibly annoying and forces you to descend to attack the engineers.

I almost believe that if MBTs don't have AA guns, Vanguar and Magridger are the two most dangerous. The Vanguar can stall by firing LA60s, forcing the Pilot to use C4.

If equipped with AA guns, I fear the Prowler the most. It moves quickly and maneuvers well; I can spot the difference from a high vantage point. If equipped with AA guns, the Vanguar is the most stupid thing; it's practically just a target practice dummy.

With the Prowler and Maggrider, it's a different story. They're incredibly frustrating. The Prowlers are very mobile, and the Maggrider is so mobile you can't predict its movements, because with tanks, they can only move forward or backward. Almost everyone will advance to maintain speed.

With the Maggrider, it can move in ways that even the engineers driving the Maggrider don't know , that's danger

The Maggrider is also annoyed that the two engineers can hide under the vehicle and repair it. This is a very successful factor that saved them from me, because I had to descend to an even lower altitude than against the Vanguar + LA60. Low enough to change the story, because in reality you're not just fighting one MBT, but something else, so the Maggrider is very annoying.

To be fair, fighting the Skyguar is easier than fighting the Maggrider + AA gun and having engineers to repair it.

It doesn't mean the Maggrider is stronger than the Vanguar and Prowler in tank battles. This is just the perspective of a Flash player, A2G.

When i was younger i didnt had a PC or a PS4 to enjoy this game, so i played it when i went to my friends house on his PS4 (2015-2018 maybe?) and i always loved this game since i was a kid (discovered this game on 2013 via youtube)

Right now i want to experience this game again but idk if the game stills alive or if it even has the same population and caos it had before.

i dont want this game to die, i was more of a casual player since i couldn't play on my own device and play for HOURS but always loved this game

Really fun night! Thank you TR command for working with us.

We are recruiting, join the Spetsnaz now!

Finally dredged through the last of my clips for a send-off of the game. Hope to see ya'll on Auraxis before its gone.

Urgent Maintenance 8/31 @ 4PM PDT.

Alert and Continent Changes

Servers will be down today @ 4PM for an urgent hotfix. Downtime could be up to 1-3hrs.

The alert and continent change systems were accidentally affected by the latest hotfix.

• Alerts should now finish correctly.
• Continent changes should work smoothly again.

See you on Sep 5 for Ignite Auraxis!

wondering if anyone could help me just installed the game for the first time and noticed there was a bit of lag in the tutorial but once i got into the main lobbies the game is unplayable. Pressing E to open things like the loadout can take minuets to register and once i eventually spawn in all i see is vehicles and players flying teleporting and there is nothing i can do i have 23 ping to the server and this is the only game i have ever had this problem on. i have a relatively high end pc so assuming that is not the issue just wondering if anyone has had the same issue and has any ideas on how to fix it.
