1. BFR's and MAX suits. Too overpowered/crowded. Basically there were far too many of these people around when I played.
i agree bfr's were terrible, but maxes were fine, in current ps they are a bit much but thats because the pop is so low they become an indoor tank. early game this wasnt much of an issue, IMO

2. Flight ceiling, AA and HORRIBLE 'aircraft' physics. Hopeless as I am I still loved the mossie and reaver. But I always found it annoying that it felt mostly like flying a 3D version of Asteroids.
i cannot wait to see the new flight system for ps2, they said it was going to be a entirely new feeling, and i for one welcome it.
3. No one-shot sniping of anything besides Infils. Same with knife. Sniper and knife should be one-shot weapons if you want a serious fight. Otherwise its just another lolfps.
do not want. i never had a problem getting sniper kills, one shot kilsl would be super over powerd, espe since sniper rifles could be fired from so far away that only another sniper rifle could reach them. infil 1 kill knives? id have over 1k kills in less then a few hours, and get bored. i love the curret thrill of the cat and mouse game you have to play a knifer.
4. Boring maps and graphics. This will obviously be improved. But meh - its my list anyway :P
maps were cool when they came out, but after 8 years i could draw them from memorey, for their time they were really well done, cant wait to see what the new ones are.
5. Weak MMO-feeling. PS was advertised as a MMO-RPG-FPS back in the day. But in reality it was more like a Persistently online FPS. Yes, there is a difference between the two no there isnt. mmo is massive multiplayer online. we have battles with 700 people. all of them players, and it was online. that fits every stipulation of MMO, i think it acheived it better then any other game ever could.

DISCLAIMER: Its been a good long while since I quit playing PS. I will most likely pick up PS2 if I find it appealing. My reasons for quitting PS has nothing to do with the grievances above.

Anyway, excited about PS2. Hope they bring back the EU server for this. I used to hang out with Ostekake's gang ;P
added my 2 cents in red
