PlanetSide 2 Briefing - Donald Spalding Bookmark and Share

The official site has posted new lore - Donald Spalding's Personal Log File.

March 15th, 2642

To say that food has been scarce since we made it through the wormhole would be an understatement. If we didn’t have so many provisions already stored outside of the hydroponic ships, the fleet would have run out of food months ago. With only three of the original twenty-three hydroponics making it through in one piece, everyone has had to go hungry. It’s been well over a year since I’ve had a full meal.

Check out the full article here.  And join the discussion on the forums here.

This was a very interesting read. I love extensive lore in video games, and Planetside has one of the richest backstories for a video game that I know of. It really helps put the game and the scenario into perspective.

When I first started reading I thought this was about one of the devs, and he was complaining that SoE wasn't feeding them enough.

They really should organize the lore articles into a separate section. It's lumped up in "News" alongside all the media and dev interviews. It's easy to miss the lore bits because of the layout. Which is a crying shame because the lore articles are pretty well done and very passable. Not to mention very entertaining to read.

A separate "Lore" or "Story" section on the official site would be nice. If at least to give some exposure to the lore bits.

you know I thought this myself every time I went in search of the lore stories when rereading them it's a damn good idea, listen to this man SOE he smart
Actually the whole website could use an overhaul for ease of access & searching.

You now do not need to dig through planetside2.com past news articles for lore, the Lore source material has been archived and organized in the wiki Lore Archive, thanks Nimbal.
