![]() ![]() ![]() I was wrong.Īccording to SOE, the largest official battle to take place in PlanetSide 2 was the most recent Server Smash, an event which is organised by the community and supported by the developers. I thought this would be a straightforward starting point for delving deeper into PlanetSide 2's history and culture. I tried to record a little piece of the game's history, a specific event of note from the game's past and, given the nature of PlanetSide 2, the logical choice was to pin down and explore the largest battle to take place in the game so far. When the guns are finally silenced, the servers shut down, I wonder how the stories and events that have taken place in that time will be remembered. This isn't a problem now, while the game rumbles merrily onward. Player achievements on the battlefield are inevitably erased as the tide of war rolls back and forth across the continents of Auraxis. It means the game lacks a certain permanence. These unique, systemic events never occur the same way twice, though they're central to PlanetSide 2's appeal. It's where you can witness dozens of tanks roll out into an icy valley on the frozen continent of Esamir, or watch laser fire from a hundred players light up the night on an Indarian plain. ![]() It's a titanic, perpetual sci-fi war that sees thousands of players battling it out over the four continents of the planet Auraxis, its spectacle driven entirely by player action.
