It's not playable over a cable modem if you get in at the right time!

No.

Fucktards like 56kers should not be allowed to play Planetside, because of one simple fact:

If you kill anyone on your screen, no matter WHERE the fuck they are in REALITY (You know, DSL/Cable land), they die.

Bullshit.

I also love it when you 56k fucktards fly around the fucking room like a fucking ferret on speed and crack, keeping a constant rate of fire on me, but somehow living through six direct hit rocklets.

Yep. I fucking love it.

It's a FPS, of course it is not fucking playable over 56k. You shouldn't be spending 50 bucks on a game like this if you can't shell out for a decent connection first.

Especially when you pay to play.

Elitist bastard. If Sony allows 56kers to play then shut the hell up.

Maybe they should make a server just for fuckwits like you and call it "The elitist bastard" server.

Not everyone has the OPTION of broadband net access. ITs STILL not insanely wide spread like you would believe.

I played all the quake games over a 56k for awhile. They were FPSes. But hey, since YOU have cable access (or DSL) Everyone else should too! And if they dont, they can go fuck themselves! I mean, god forbid the netcode work well to where 56kers and Broadband users can play together (Didnt Counterstrike do this pretty well?)

See, I can use the word "fuck too! it adds EMPHASIS! FUCK FUCK FUCKITY FUCK

The level of fucking DUMBSHITS that Planetside attracts staggers even me.

We were about to cap Mekala, a nice vanu base. I had blown the gens, most of the equip terms. 5 mins on the hack, base finally goes newt.

Some dumbshit hops in the ANT that was waiting at the silo, and DRIVES OFF WITH IT.

Of course, the VS pick this fucking time to cap the north tower and ream us up the fucking ass, so we lost the hack (Time ran out, no power, FUCKING WHEE, I LOST 3K XP.), and the continent afterwards.

We woulda done an assload better (We were finishing locking the fucking place, other bases were hacked for TR, but Mekala was the last non NC base) had that fucktard not have been there.

Actually, nope. I was able to beat those LPBs just fine when I was actually good at the games, with my 300 ping.

You aren't any more a real player than someone who would absolutely LOVE to spend 50 bucks a month more on a cable modem line but CANT BECAUSE IT ISNT OFFERED.

Mind you, I've had mine for near 3 years now, but that doesnt mean everyone does.

I more than understood that. So lets blame it on the "fucktard 56kers" instead of blaming it on Sony who programmed the netcode. I mean, 56kers shouldnt be able to play games because they dont have cable modem access!!!

Oh, and surprisingly, 56kers are still the majority, at least in the US.

I'm sorry I don't give a shit about being an elitist bastard.

Did you play planetside, Fal?

Oh, right. Forgot.

Let me explain something.

If you kill someone on your screen, no matter WHEN you did so, even if they were FIFTY MILES AWAY, they die. You fly around in a vehicle with nobody moving? Great. You just ran someone over who was hacking that tower five minutes after you saw him. You shot that max to death? Great. He died when he was defending the CC from an infantry.

THAT is fucking bullshit. It isn't some elitist fucking attitude, it's bullshit. Shove your "OMG U R ELITIST DIE DIE" bullshit somewhere, and go fuck off.

Never said I did, and I never said I didnt fully understand you.

I never disagreed that it was bullshit.

But it still isn't the 56kers fault. Bitch at Sony, where it might do some good. Not at a person asking if they can play over a 56k

Will likely not happen for awhile. The developers need to make the game accessible to all, and that means making the netcode so it doesnt do stupid stuff like this.

And Delphi, do you even read your own posts? You called 56kers fucktards, simply because they use 56k, and said they shouldnt be allowed to play. Nowhere did you say "Those stupid fucks at sony should fix their netcode so that 56kers don't have such an advantage"

I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree, there Fal. The game should be availible to everyone, 56k or not. I'm just really fucking upset that because YOU have 56k, you get an advantage.

Generally, when I pay 40 bucks a month for sub 100 pings to most servers, and maybe a thousand for a computer to run it, I don't want to be bested by some tard with the super minimum system reqs that got his computer refurbished from Dell at 200 bucks four years ago, with a service that's half what I'm paying.

In the real world, I'd agree with you.

In a game, it needs to be fair and playable on all systems. You would be bitching if you had the minimum requirements and couldn't play, yes?

You have the advantage of superior equipment. Because Joe Schmoe down the street doesnt have the same equipment as you, he should be disadvantaged. You have MORE money to send, so fuck everyone else.

You play sports, it don't work like that. Take Bowling, for example. the bowlers that dont have as good of equipment may not do as well, so they get a "handicap" to help them participate with others that are far superior. those with Better gear or those that do better tend to, well, get higher scores, and have less of a handicap. Now, just because someone has crappy gear doesn't mean they will be bad, or good gear doesnt mean they will be good, but gear can help you to be quite a bit better.

Same with PC games. Gear can help you be better, which in itself gives you an advantage.

But...I still agree sony should fix their problems. I'm not arguing with you on that. What I'm bitching at you over is where you were placing the blame.

It should play on the min sys reqs, but they SHOULD have made the Min reqs something greater then a 56k modem.

They should have you test pings to servers (Under packet stress, even) and see if your connection will hold up. If not, it sends you back to the store with a note saying you need to buy cable or return the game.

Quit your fucking whining. (See, fuck adds emphasis and meaning! ) I fail to see why Sony is under any obligation to disallow 56k users, especially considering their multiple subscriptions bring in more than your one. Perhaps you could explain it for us?

So you suck so hard at games that you feel entiteled to an advantage just because you can afford a bigger digital penis? Shut up, game developers should work to do just the opposite, skill should determine your score in the game, not the amount of money you are willing to spend. By your twisted logic it would be best if they just offered frags at a rate of 5$ per to properly advantage those with fuckloads of money to spend over the lower pesantry.

If Joe Schmoe with a 1,4k P3 and a 56k modem is a better player than you he should be kicking your sorry ass all day long even if you're sitting at Jesus' own laptop.

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

Whee.

It's not that having min system reqs or a slower line gives you an advantage I could overcome with skill, it's that someone with a "slower line" can FLY AROUND THE FUCKING ROOM (Maybe you dumbshits don't seem to get this point) and shoot me WITHOUT me being ABLE to fire at him.

THAT is bullshit. THAT is the reason they should not be ALLOWED to play, but I don't fault them, I fault the absolute shit for lag code.

There's a problem with MAXes raytraces, especially with the TR DC MAXes that allows them to wonderfully blow you away from the side even when they're firing at the opposite wall.

Then there's the good ol' fashioned lag that lets you run around a corner and stand there for a few seconds while they're still shooting you on their screen.
