Greetings, Soldiers!

Another change with version 3.2.12 that went live January 19th, 2005 is one to the population cap numbers. Previously, any one planet in the system could have up to 166 soldiers per Empire on it. In order to better spread the fighting out across the system and promote more fighting in more locations, we have reduced this per Empire cap number to 133. This means you will have some 66 less possible targets to shoot at and 33 less possible friendlies to watch your back. While this may seem like a lot, we don't think it will be hugely noticeable.

Exactly my first thought.


Let's hope we'll get a replacement where all the wrongs of PS have been done right ;)

Well to that you could say from release what game isnt?
In the end... the secual comes :D

But seriusly I think its not that there are less playing now than a few months ago just that this change could just ass well been added a few months ago.

Also every MMO will lose some players when a new MMO comes... sort of like WoW now and even Matrix Online later...

instead they should delete the vs spammer n00b empire and increase pop to 250 per faction.
that would be awesome epic battles.

3way for the lo0se
2 empires all the way!

PS: to delete vs is the logical choice cause nobody likes them. they look stupid and they only have spammertastic n00b weapons and bunny jumping gheywalkers(max) and gheybots(bfr)

Remember though shy devs = vs, and vs has the largest vocal group of planetside.

tbh I wouldn't care if they deleted nc, id just join tr.. id still get to pwn vs. But I would love that they removed one empire. But I think the devs are too stuborn to realise this would be for the better, because they dont' want to lose "all" the work they put into it...
