    On the 10th anniversary of the incredible Planetside 1, SoE has decided to reward all former subscribers with a free 6 month membership!

    https://forums.station.sony.com/ps2/index.php?threads/happy-anniversary-planetside-1.127192/

    I read a facebook comment that said PS2 members are being given free game time as well, but I can't confirm that.

    This is pretty exciting to me. Not just because I don't have to pay, but also because the population of the game will be given a huge boost, thanks to the free game time. So I just want to say, don't blame me if my PS2 activity time diminishes for the next little while :p

    I'm gonna be rolling with Ghosts of the Revolution (GotR), unless we have a number from XoO playing the game.

    Thank you for this information.

    however, this is the planetside 2 forum,

    Planetside 1 can be discussed in another forum please.

    i'm going to move the thread to a more fitting forum.

    This should offer your thread more chance to bring in the old crowd who loves PS1 just as much as you do :)

    Wouldn't it be most relevant to XoO PS2 members since they are a largest population that receives the bonus and would be most interested in this gametype?

    Hey Rub, is AT or Future Crew made an appearance at all? How are pops?

    nope, it'll be more relevant to the general community since most of our PS1 veterans have all left PS2.
    we have, i believe, 5 or so PS1 veterans remaining.

    those who left did not like the way the new game was moving, so i figured, they'd get more out of it, out here rather than in our corner of the world.

    @Daibar: the free game time is not limited to PS1 members. ALL Planetside players get free PS1 game time. Just thought they should know. Traditionally, we've posted PS2 material in PS1 subforums, and vice versa. But you are the CO, so I will adhere to your decision. Plus, I don't mind the thread here.

    @Riot: Haven't gotten a chance to login yet. Been busy with school assignments. I'll get a chance to play on Thursday evening. I'm sure there will be a decent population.

    Oh yep, I am definitely going to fool around in this.

    My gaming habits have honestly gone a decade back in time; I'm playing DAoC at the moment, and going to play PlanetSide 1, just as I'm looking forward to the old-school RPG's coming off of Kickstarter.

    Life is good.
