Planetside is now free to play untill March 21st 2007, you join the army reserves which is exactly the same exept you cannot pass Battle Rank 6 (meaning only 1 implant out of 3, and only 9 skill points to use instead of 27 odd)
This doesnt really limit you too much though, as you can make 8 chars and each do diff professions..skills are used on better weaps, medic, hacking, engineer and driving vehicles.
Anyways, sign up now ! :P
www.planetside.com
Of course, im still downloading (huge updates..) but its almost done. You can form squads and platoons, we could even make a SFH clan if enough people got into it, taking bases together and using vent to have a distinct advantage.
check it out ! :)

Well it needs
256 mb + ram
Pentium 3 or above
1 GHZ hard drive
Geforce 2 or better gfx card
and a few other things..thats just the min specs.
Supposedly the game has a memory leak so you might need more than 256 im hoping my page file will make up for it though.

I used to subscribe guys, its a great game, but used to kill any graphics card after there were more than 100 or so players on the screen.
But by that time you were dead or were gonna die. :D

We should all play :P
It works great, i got no lag in training nor when i dropped down.
Problem was, when i warped to a new area the game crashed in loading..then i restarted, area worked fine. Unfortunatly id missed the huge battle, so i took my anger out on a enemy truck left there, took it for a joyride ! :D
Rode around for a good 20 mins , then tried to warp again. Crashed lol..
I think i cant warp :P but i havnt tried instant action yet.
