There are just as many or more 'war game simulation' elements present in #2 than in the original. A lot of the original players look back at the game through a veil of nostalgia and warm feelings. They build the game up to be more than it really was.

The old guard, those who played, enjoyed and loved the original Planetside, want this new game to mirror the old one in as many ways as possible.

This isn't necessarily true. There are many of us who played and enjoyed the hell out of the original that are excited to see a lot of things change. The game feeling like a shooter from the era in which is was developed being chief among them. Planetside felt like a dated shooter when it was released.
You are alright fella. You have patience and tact, and you support your posts properly.
