Planetside 2 battles persist and the war never ends, offering constant challenges of individual skill, team grit, and empire-wide coordination.

Players come together in enormous battles across four massive continents to win control of critical territories, gaining key resources for their empire. With an extensive skill tree and class-based system, players can customize their soldier, weapons, and vehicles to match their playstyle and meet the needs of their squads, outfits, and empires. In the world of Planetside 2, every soldier makes a difference.

Planetside 2 Gameplay

In Planetside 2 the player can take control of one of the six available character classes, one out of which has been presented in the form of a vehicle, which is why you need to pay in Resource Infantry points each time you select it (more about this later). Each one of the classes follows a different driving style and has the specific predispositions and strong points. In this chapter, you can find detailed descriptions of these classes, accompanied by a handful of valuable hints, the learning of which can save your ass. The individual units do not differ, from faction to faction, in anything but looks - the uniform and stripes. The abovementioned characteristics of the individual factions concern the vehicles and weaponry, which are used by the soldiers, and not the soldiers themselves.
