There is a flip side to that coin though. Just because something was flawed in PS1 doesn't preclude its failure in PS2. Blindly saying that mechs in any form are impossible for Planetside is pretty short sighted.

Also, I think you are mistaken that the "devs concur" with you. T-Ray, for example, has said from the beginning that BFR's have a chance someday, that with the lessons learned they can be done right. It's not fair to put words in the devs mouths and hold them to some promise they never made. They have said that BFRs won't be in at launch, not that they will NEVER be in the game. Just like Hamma's boy toy Justin Bieber says, "never say never".
