Planetside 2 gets boring real quick on low population hours. Entire areas where no one is fighting. Basically everyone runs to one or two bases, which is fine if you like the layout of the base. If not? Your out of luck.
I'd be like someone who doesn't like Metro or Locker being stuck with only one server to play on, and its playing those maps lol

I don't know Planetside 2 at all so I looked up a comparison article with Battlefield 2042 maps between older/ different titles. Compared to COD Warzone I can get a feel for how big they are, still they don't seem that big to me.
I'm 100% guessing, but the only conclusion I can come up with is Battlefield 2042 won't feature cross-play, at launch at least. I came up with that because of how they're talking about bots for a game that hasn't even been released, why?
I'm glad the game will feature bots for the people who want it, but being it's a paid game, I would like features that are in my interest, Bots are not one of them.
I honestly find it more enjoyable knowing that each and every ingame character I come in contact with is a real person. It's one of the core parts of the online multiplayer sandbox. You shoot someone, they die and come back for you.
This cat & mouse game is part of Battlefield. I have a hard time believing the bots will feature that, plus just automatically giving away peoples positions just by shooting at everything willy-nilly.
If the game features cross-play, I'll feel better about bots, but I still think the paid user should have a say so if they want them or not.

I paid for this game so i demand that every single game mode from previous Battlefields is included, also every single map has to be there because i paid for it. If not well...refund! not playing! that will teach them a lesson!
In all seriousness.. you don't even own the game. You obtained a license to play it, nothing more. Also does that mean that i can only play against 63 bots? that would be pretty disappointing.
- 5 years ago@Popa2caps I think it will have cross play between Xbox and PS. PC? Probably not. I think a PC player will be able to invite a PS or Xbox friend into their game, like Apex does, but that's about it. Console players aren't all that interested in playing with PC players, mostly due to the rampant hacking and cheating on PC.
Planetside 2 continents are a LOT bigger than Warzone. So it could be an extreme example. They are basically 8km x 8km. But they also can accommodate thousands of players. 128 players is a medium sized skirmish in Planetside 2.
Still I could see a round of Plunder on Warzone being pretty boring if say you only had 30-40 players.
But then Conquest is going to spread the action out across the BF2042 maps a lot more than Warzone. That will thin the action out significantly if you only have a half full server.
