I know there's been previous discussion about massive multiplayer RPGs, but I thought I'd start a thread about massive multiplayer FPSs.

A friend at work gave me a copy of Planetside last week, and a 10 day trial account.

I'm really impressed with the ability to coordinate with a group of people through squad/platoon management.

The whole "lets get together with 50-100 people and go raid some unsuspecting folks in this new location" aspect is pretty amazing too. Having never played any sort of massive multiplayer game before, it was certainly a new experience.  

And even if theres only you and two friends, you can still do some productive things (like recapturing towers "behind" enemy lines in prep for the main battle forces arrival, or scouting out enemy respawning positions and either capturing them (Adv. Hacker, yeah!) or destroying them)

So - what are your experiences,
Are there other good/better MMO FPS games out there?

Oh, and if anyone here is a Planetside'r:
Server: Markov
Empire: Terran Republic
Character: (you guessed it) Spec8472

iv played alot of mmorpgs from 10six to eq to daoc and currently the best iv played is world of warcraft even if it is still in beta its friggan amazing

Dunno the only one i played is planetside. Most games just dont have persistant worlds.

The massive thing is something i dont like about planetside though. Its great when 2 armies collide and a battle that takes hours comes from it. But to often the armies just keep circling eachother because the third empire will capture the other continents if the main forces of the other 2 collide.

I play on Werner mostly as Blyker
