PS2, YES!!
I think this GIF sums up how most of us feel. This is more good news coming from Sony.
Confirmed? I know SCE were seriously buttering up Bohemia last I heard.
That's kind of the point, isn't it? You can't be involved in scenario's like that if you aren't willing to actually get involved and join in. If they made the solo play too appealing, then team work would drop and none of those epic moments would be taking place.
Kind of weird how after the PS4 announcement, it says
"Nvidia, the way it's meant to be played"
Nvidia is still the official sponsor of the PC version, and of course, all versions are using PhysX for particle generation [even the PS4].

Oh boy Planetside 2! Imagine streaming to Vita!
I doubt this is cross-play. It would be no fun for console players.
Also you are severely limited in this game without spending any money. I'm not trying to dissuade people PS2 is an awesome extremely rapidly improving game with maybe the most open dev team of all time. (Roadmap for the next six months is continually updated and the community is allowed to vote and things voted for are pushed to the top of the devs to do list). In six months time when the PS4 is released it will be significantly improved from where it is now.
But. The cert gain is slow enough that you will be frustrated without using Station Cash. Playing with one weapon per class and gimped vehicles isn't fun.
If you want to play this game I imagine SOE will offer a pre-order type deal that allows you to spend 40-50 bucks that will get you a nice long boost and selection of weapons and some SC to play around with. Highly highly recomended.

I have a throbbing erection.
Why pre-install it? If you want it, download it.
Works both ways
Would get more people to play it in the end. If it's there and available, more people are likely to give it a shot than if they had to go through the effort to go onto the store and download it.

Well Sony's interested and have talk with them. So I'm going by that xD
I thought they already did...
This question needs to be answered.

Damn man, PS4 is sounding better and better. Pretty excited about getting one and the WiiU to fill my gaming needs!

I think pre-installing PS2 on all PS4s would be smart. They can say it comes with a free game.
I doubt it. DCUO is not.
Would be a terrible move to have ps4 and pc players on the same server.

YES, someone post a super excited gig or something, I am sooo happy today. Megaton for me, cause Planetside 2 looks amazing!!
Yep - also PS+ with a free PS4 game at launch would be pretty smart.
PS2 being on every machine would create an immediate, and fairly large, community for the game.

"NVIDIA. The way it's meant to be played." Not on PS4.

Except the PS4 is using an AMD Radeon GPU
The cert gain is fine, you don't expect to be max level in a MMO as soon as you play it. If you enjoy the game, you'll spend money on it. There is so much for you to do as a free game.

Not this game it won't. And they have a choice. Keep it or uninstall.

Because it'll take a hell of alot more time to download then to uninstall.
Not quite. Only thing we know is they've been in contact with Dean Hall.

Plug & play, it'd save time.
Except Nvidia offers hardware accelerated PhysX middleware to all console manufacturers. They are only fucking Radeon users on PC by forcing on them SINGLE-THREADED CPU physx processing.

This would be so easy for PR:
Problem with PS+ is that it might not be there at launch for PS4 and with lack of BC, that means you can't get the PS3 freebies and play on your PS4 either.
The surprise will be if that doesn't come.

PS2 has to be cross platform. The numbers on PC feel way too low for a game that supports 2000 players on a single map.

Sony should put PS2 on the hard drive for every PS4 purchase

Believe damn it. BELIEVE!!!!
Planetside 2 (wooohoo!), Destiny, probably other interesting exclusives, free-to-play games, gamer-focused device, and presumably still free multiplayer.
Yeah, i think it is nearly 100% clear i'll switch to PS4 for next gen.
Now all i need is a confirmation of no-anti-consumer-bullshit Microsoft likes.

No the cert gain is awful. Your level is irrelevant.
What is relevant is that essential suit upgrades for each class will run you in the 1000s of points range. Most weapons are 1000 points. Certing vehicles will cost you 1000s of points.
All this combined with the fact that one cert equals 250 XP. This translates roughly to a cert every two kills. In a game where kills do not come nearly as fast as a game like Battlefield or CoD simply due to the logistics of the whole thing.
