Let's go see if we find old PS2 vids for newer members to enjoy, just to see what PS2 was like "back in the day."
Any PS2 vids from 2012, 2013 and maybe 2014 will do, but I'm especially hoping for vids that show the old... everything. Bases, mechanics, weapon performance, sounds etc. etc.
I'll start by showing off old Eisa Tech and the old MCG.

Yeah man, but I miss old school mechanics.
Running open platoon, everyone is redeployed, SLs drop on top of Vanu Archives in the middle of a zergfest.
44 Drop Pods coming down is something that you can't even describe.

I'm not saying i don't miss some old mechanics.. just not the old redeploy screen xD
Also there was a time when you capped a base faster if you had more people on the point. remember that one? always just chilling on the point to get the base faster was annoying most of the time but sometimes it lead to some awesome situations xD

You should feel relieved, before that, you had to get X people on the point to even start the clock.

Would be nice now with like 2 people needed to start off the cap. Would stop some of the clueless shitters ghostcapping bases.

I hear that...
I think that was the original intention, but they had to remove it because "Individuals mattered", basically in the MLG pandering time.
HOLY SHIT REMEMBER MLG CAST WITH HIGBY?

Dude, I'm at work and I just spent the last half hour using any possible combination to find an old comic strip that was released when Planetside 2 just launched of a cartoon version of Maggie Krohn sucking some dude's dick to get him to play.

I remember Towers and some of the old layouts they used to have.
I also remember when MAX'es could be revived as easy and swift as infantry, and I recall the ZOE.

OR how about this one as a good example before I find a different topic to mention? MAX'es get C4'd by friendlies, but a couple revive nades bring them all back up to continue the rampage as they see fit.
If any of you new folks pity VS today, don't.

I remember the crown was the only fight between TR and VS during Beta.
You would log in every day, there would be [BRTD] gals waiting at the warpgate to drop you on the crown. TR held the crown while VS held XRoads and Magrider Hill and we would just farmed each other for about... well, all of Beta.

So much old memories. The good old hud redeploy screen buffed lib and not to forget without all that shit new weapons that arenĀ“t meaking sense at all. Was a good time and I would give a lot for the old hud.
