Planetside’s Daybreak Games Announce Development Team Restructure

Daybreak Games made a huge announcement today, based on suggestions made based on negative comments by PlanetSide 2 players. These comments were about the franchise as a whole, and so Daybreak Games came to the conclusion that they needed a restructure. Before this, PlanetSide Arena had a team that worked separate from Planetside 2, but now they are going to join forces. This way, they can fix what needs to be fixed. Andy Sites, Executive Producer wrote a post on their forums, where he reviewed the first month of Early Access of PlanetSide Arena. He also discusses the future of PlanetSide 2 and PlanetSide Arena.

He wants their players to know that they wish to treat the Early Access as it should, a limited phase, where they gather feedback and improve the game overall. Andy also revealed a non-BR mode is in the works for PlanetSide Arena, for shorter, session-based matches. It will have a mode-specific map, capture points, and being able to drop in/out as needed. They’re also coming up on the 7th Anniversary of PlanetSide 2 as well as the 17th anniversary of the franchise overall. The Executive Producer also teases some thoughts about what PlanetSide 3 should be. Perhaps we can see massive Galactic War during PlanetSide 3, which would be pretty fantastic.
