    I'm one of the very few playing PSA right now.

    I like it but not many are playing. In fact not many at all.
    I've played this with my son and we have been the only ones playing. Him on one side and me on other.
    Great fun.

    If I was being honest the ONLY reason to play now is to ride the 'hoverbike'.

    Is there a snowflakes chance it will be carried over to PS2?
    My guess is 'no'.

    Failing that how about bringing it to PS3?
    My guess is 'don't know yet'.

    Why did I bother to post?
    My guess is 'I have problems'.:eek:

    Is this a troll?
    The devs just yesterday (maybe tuesday, not sure) announced they were porting the bike into planetside 2.
    There are threads about it on the main page:

    Look before you leap man.

    did you watch the dev stream?
    its coming over as an NSO exclusive vehicle called Javelin,
    currently only one weapon (homing missiles like Striker that work on all vehicle types),
    but the boost looks fun

    It's an NSO exclusive vehicle which to me means it hasn't been ported over to PS2 yet.

    I say it should stay NSO exclusive. It'd be fun to be a loser and then the NSOps pull up on your block with these things and cause havoc.

    plus NSO don't have MBTs, so this just evens out the ground vehicle count,
    NC - Vanguard
    VS - Magrider
    TR - Prowler
    NS - Javelin

    Do the Javelin's homing missiles attack ESF, because if they do, the NSOps basically have an AA/AV Flash tank minus the health.

    I just tried the Javelin on PTS and it has no free-look option (use mouse to look around) like the Flash, that alone is a big handicap.

    No, I'm not a troll. However, unfortunately I do look like one.:oops:
    Thanks for the information and lifestyle advice.;)

    To me that makes PS2 pretty much perfect.

    Dude they literally announced it three days ago.

    The bike is just coming for NSO though, I really wish they took this opportunity to redesign vehicles to give them all unique faction specific looks.
  11. icufos


    Yes, hoped it was available for all but just NSO.
    Agree with the second point made.:cool:
