My Planetside 2 article got published :-)


UPDATE: My second article just got released. Feel free to upvote it if you like it :-)

How Eve Online Secured Planetside 2's Future

A few months ago, I discovered this theMittani.com website. I liked the quality of the content and thanks to these forums and the heated "PS2-should-be-more-like-PS1" discussions, I got inspired to submit an article for it.

I do not have any writing background and I'm not even native English so I was kinda surprised that it not only got published, this Mittani guy (most Eve Online players should have heard of him) actually added me to the writer staff and challenged me to crank out some more.

Who knows, I'm not sure what and if more will come out of it but if you have ideas you want to see published, I'm open to it.

Cool! I've been playing EVE since shortly after release and I even started a PlanetSide fan Corp in game (now long since abandoned), and, like you, ran into The Mittani's site not too long ago and was impressed. The front page was essentially a list of all the games I'm into... EVE of course, Mechwarrior Online (which I've also been beta testing), League of Legends, Star Citizen, and PS2.

Obviously Smed is a big fan of EVE and of course PlanetSide can learn a lot from the game, which has managed to mature very gracefully over the last decade... but there are also a lot of things it definitely shouldn't do.

In any case, great article. I have always loved both games and it's always interested me how those two very different games seem to attract a lot of the same people.

fantastic article man! i love, respect, and agree from where you are coming from. Minecraft has always kept me interested because of the constant updates and changes, and it is always nice to see what they have in-store. and PS2 using this is a great idea. i can't wait until it has turned into PS1 on steroids, this will please all vets and fans alike. show this article to the haters or the doubters and there concerns will disappear. very interesting take on things.

Interesting article. Kind of short in terms of content but it gets the point across.

More development on that topic in the future ?
