PlanetSide is a massively multiplayer online first-person shooter computer game (usually abbreviated as MMOFPS) published by Sony Online Entertainment and released on May 19, 2003. In PlanetSide, three factions fight for territorial control over ten different worlds. Each player controls a soldier from one of the three factions. Players may specialize in a combination of various fields such as: Medical, sniping, heavy weaponry, and aircraft and/or ground vehicle access.
At any one time, each of the three PlanetSide servers hosts potentially hundreds of players in a variety of landscapes, from the war on foot to the air, across desert, mountains, forests and swamps. The goal is simple: each faction must attempt to capture as many facilities as possible on the surface of the planet while denying them to their enemies. There are many strategies and opportunities that skilled players can utilize in order to direct combat operations. The player controls his or her chosen character from a first-person perspective. This gives combat a more direct role and emphasizes skill.
