Very excited about the persistence, map size and player count Planetside is bringing back to the table, this time with more functional mechanics. Couldn't care less if driving/firing requires one seat or two, and not sure why BF3/CoD needs to be included in the discussion of such.

If not for the boring, console centered map design (meaning primarily for infantry), i would have played BF3 for a lot longer. I have never before BF3, primarily played a BF game for its infantry combat (it was always too rigid and awkward, I played COD 1 and 2 for that). Other then its map design, BF3 feels great all around. The first BF was my favorite because it had some almost vehicle maps only, and i never had to work with other ppl in 1 vehicle to be effective, but work alongside other vehicles.
