Choose your Empire


We've seen Terran and New Conglomerate weapons, along with sneak peeks at the even weirder than usual Vanu flyers. tl;dr lots of unique empire stuff.

But wait! I'm NOT asking which empire you'll choose.
I'm asking which empire you think will be the most organized when the Beta (If it happens) ends and the Game (If SOE doesn't kill it) begins.


Will the New Conglomerate hit the ground running again?
Will the Vanu Soveriengty use OP weapons and MAXes to rape everything?
Will the Terran Republic... Do something?

(though this will probably devolve into "your favorite empire")

I don't think that there is any doubt that the VS are going to be raping everybody, all I can say is hide yo wife, hide yo kids, and hide yo husband too.

Most organized? I don't think anyone will be organized in any meaningful way. I know on TR/Emerald we used to have a multi-outfit alliance that I assume attempted to organize stuff. Did the other sides have something similar? At any rate, there will be a smattering of organized outfits all over the place amidst a sea of people doing their own thing.

On the other hand, if there is built-in leadership for the empire, something more than the global/continent chat command rank provided, perhaps sides will have the tools to get organized to a greater extent. Or, perhaps not.

NC/Emerald. First few months of PS1: Trigganator + Raids. I'm hoping that kind of organization happens again here.

Just going to vote which empire I'm choosing. Not sure how to answer who is going to be organized. I'm expecting disorganization at first tbh. We'll see though cause the mission system may help a lot with this.

Mission system is really unneeded.
There are old games like WWII:Online that have this thing that lets you be placed into an already cooperating temporary battalion. And it worked awesomely. Hope they integrate something like that, instead of "Oh everybody on oshur go here hurrdurr"

On a empire level, none of them will be organized at first. On a outfit level, will see a lot of organization right at the get go.

I voted VS, but that's biased:
a) Because I mostly Played VS myself
b) Because I have my prediction based on ex-Werner pop.

My main arguments are:
a) NC had too much solo weaponry and promoted it
b) TR had too much zerg vehicles and most balanced weaponry, so TR promoted zerging.
c) Except for Lancer and Maggy there were no good weapons for VS, so they only had their strength in coordination.

I really hope that organisation with big outfits will really turn the tide in this game. I dont want this game to be a zerg fest lol

In case you were living under a rock the last couple of years and missed it...



TR did plenty on Emerald, where were you? The chain gun is a spray and pray lovers wet f'ing dream. The Lasher is what 2 out 3 factions still bitch about as OP.

I think the population on a Global level will be very 33%/33%/33% the question is going to be what does your server look like for a faction split and when are the power play times for your faction.

There are Clan's for each faction which are organized and waiting in the wings for a chance at Beta in order to get a real handle on the Game Mechanics and the min/max options that will lend itself to tactics and strategy beyond the Rush/No Rush mentality.
