Re: Get rid of the New Motto, bring back the old


"For Land. For Power. Forever." was a great tagline for Planetside 1. It emphasized the strongest, most unique point about Planetside at the time, in the market it emerged from. Persistence was a big deal, and nobody else really had it in a PvP environment.

Persistent PvP doesn't stand out as much anymore, since there are other games that offer it. EVE, Pirates of the Burning Sea, Perpetuum Online, even Global Agenda can be argued to have it.

"Size. Always. Matters.", on the other hand, definitely highlights Planetside 2's stunning achievement. The biggest PvP game from a "size of battles" perspective I can think of are things like Battlefield or Pirates of the Burning Sea, which support on the order of 25-50ish players per side. And Planetside 2 blows that away by an order of magnitude. That's significant. That stands out. And you should highlight your strengths when marketing.
