Planetside 2 is more-or-less supported by whales who buy up the massively overpriced "micro"transactions. The devs intentionally make it excessively difficult to get the important and even game changing implants unless you buy the packs that contain them ($80 each btw).

The devs also nerfed vehicles into the ground because the lead designer was an infantry main, but simultaneously they see no issue with cloaked ATVs running down a whole line of people.

Let's not forget pocket orbital strike and the incredible harm that has done to the game...

trolling people as stalker infiltrator is truly a memorable experience
