After 10 failures to enter Planetside last night (plus several instances of the elevator panel telling me the servers were full), I gave up.
Tried again this morning ... after three more failures, I finally got in, much to my surprise. At that point I couldn't run around for long because I had to get to work, but I checked out the bar, the Jobwell room, the medical center and the incinerator behind the bar. Pretty cool. I hope I'm able to get back in so I can check out the rest of the map. That chat text is damn tiny, though.
My FPS in the hangar (whatever the old Business Hangar is called now, with an Aurora, a Hornet and an Avenger in it) ranged between 20 and 30. When I stepped out into ArcCorp's central area and looked at that big gear sphere thing, my FPS were at 9, haha. Running around Planetside, my FPS usually were between 15 and 20, with occasional moments of 30, like when I was walking down the stairs upon first entering Jobwell but before rounding the corner and seeing the whole big room. My CPU, a quad-core i5-760 2.8 ghz, ran at 75 degrees C with a stock fan, which I don't think is too bad, considering. I have a Radeon 7870 with 2 GB of VRAM, by the way. So I'm glad I can run the module at all with my modest specs, even if it became a bit of a slideshow at times.
