Planetside 2: First impressions on PS4

Planetside 2 is a massive online shooter with a focus on big battles.  From a gameplay mechanics stand point the game does not do anything new but blends a couple common gameplay mechanics together.  Teamwork is key with lone wolfs forced to work with other players. Teamwork is the name of the game with many gameplay mechanics designed to put a focus on teamwork.  Health does not recharge meaning you’re forced to seek out the medic class.  Hard to find anything wrong with the mechanics of the game.  Let’s do a quick break down on what I have noticed so far.

For the record level 15 still have no idea.  IGN Starter Guide is quite useful should have spent some time going over it.

Unlock system

Need credits to unlock items within the game pick what items you want to use and no need to grind.

Recoil

Game has some recoil which requires you to burst fire and recoil control.

Teamwork

Do enjoy the focus on teamwork within this game.

Had my OnePlus One for a week decided to post up my thoughts and feelings on the phone so far.

OnePlus Two: Why not wait?

Early adopters often in technology sector suffer from serious manufacturing defects. Failure rates are higher compared to the average 4% for a product.  Rate for early adopters can be near 50% or higher. Combined with the fact the OnePlus Two is likely to be invite only so near impossible to get hold of for months.  Production of the phone is likely to be low / limited for some time.

No idea what sort of hardware the phone is going be rocking or the price tag.

OnePlus One: Thoughts and feelings

Hardware wise the OnePlus One rocks

  • 5.5″ FHD Screen Gorilla Glass 3
  • Snapdragon 801 Quad Core 2.5Ghz
  • CyanogenMod 11 based On Android 4.4.2
  • 3GB Ram 16GB/64GB ROM
  • Oneplus One 4G Flagship Killer

Pretty much near flagship level hardware wise with a middle of the ground price tag.  Phone is not bad when it comes to hardware price you pay is outstanding value.  Full details of the hardware can be found on the OnePlus website, camera could be seen as the weak spot but decent enough.  Camera is still great without a doubt with the phone able to record video in 1080p.  Battery life the phone has some serious stamina most phones these days the battery has become the Achilles heel.  OnePlus One has sold over one million units for good reason. Back of the phone is textured to help you grip the phone when you hold it.  Operating system is CyanogenMod based on Android barebones pretty much clean android. 

Recommend as a phone for users who want a good android phone.

OnePlus one is overall a nice bit of kit.

Based on what I used so far happy with the phone it has one of the longest battery usage spans I seen.  Hardware wise pretty fast for a range of things.  Barebone androids with you being allowed to pick what you want.

Only complaint so far is I feel like a ton of features which I have no clue about are hidden away. Slowly getting to grips with the phone 🙂
