There’s a couple of others in that same cohort making $5,000, and they’ll likely be making another $5,000 or $6,000 in the next quarter when we pay out.” One kid walked away with $8,000, and he only made a couple of items. “We’ve already had one round of checks go out. “After our expenses are recuperated, player creators get 40 percent of proceeds,” Isaac says. “Pretty soon, that’s going to grow to include vehicle cosmetics.” The best part for the designers is that there is real money to be made in the Player Studio. “Currently, we allow people to make camos, cockpit decals, helmets, and hood ornaments,” Isaac explains. Those who are successful are added to the shop where other PlanetSide 2 players can purchase. Isaac visits and comments on works in progress to help aspiring designers refine their work. The process is very interactive, and the forums are a back-and-forth of concept and constructive criticism among peers. Additionally, there are a variety of cosmetic items, camouflages, and decals that can be purchased to personalize the experience. Isaac stresses that all of the weapons in the shop can be purchased with Station Cash or in-game currency. Membership also gets you early access to in-game weapon purchases. Membership includes a number of boosts, including resource gain, experience gain, automatic daily in-game currency bonuses that ramp up the longer you’ve been a member, additional character slots, and 500 Station Cash (SOE’s real money currency) each month.

That’s what makes PlanetSide 2 that much harder.” “You don’t have a set map that you’ve run a million times where you know all the angles. “It’s a different experience than most console gamers are used to,” he says. I joked with Isaac that “massive” seems to mean different things to different developers. During our conversation, we spoke about where the game is going and what players can expect from the PlayStation 4 version due in 2014.įor those that don’t know, PlanetSide 2 features massive battles across its landscapes. Yesterday, we spoke with the game’s senior art director Tramell Isaac. Some PlanetSide 2 players are having a very happy holiday.
