You're not going to be able to beat MW3/BF3 at their own game. By all means, give it all the nice FPS things that people love, but remember its Planetside 2 and not Call of Duty.

Tactics, thought and depth > Akimbo, Juggernauts and 14 year old children screaming down the comms.
One could also argue that you're not going to beat Starcraft or any X4 title as an FPS so might as well focus on the FPS aspects.
