Pros
Pro Strategic elements
Duelyst combines a collectible card game with strategic elements of games like FIre Emblem or Front Mission.
Pro Fun card crafting system
Allows anyone to make any card rather than having to just rely on random luck of packs. This is done through disenchanting unused cards for a fraction of their value in order to craft needed cards with what is earned from disenchanting.
Pro Balanced well
Free 2 Play with fair rewards for non-paying customers. While those that pay will have an early advantage, players can earn the same advantage with time spent in the game for free, it just takes longer.
Pro User selectable respawn points
Users can select where they want to respawn after death. There are even vehicles that provide new spawn points on the map that players can drive and leave. This creates a great element of strategy on where to place spawn points when attacking certain targets.
Pro Open world MMO-FPS with huge persistent battles between 3 factions
Three factions are in constant battle for points on a map, with the goal of getting the most pieces on the map or the whole thing.
Pro Vehicles
The vehicle options in game add a lot more depth to the strategy of planning attacks on the enemy.
Cons
Con Difficult card collecting
Takes a while to get a good deck, but it is mitigated with a good ranking system. So it may take a time investment in order to earn the appropriate cards to be competitive.
Con Poor tutorial, hard to figure all mechanics out
PlanetSide 2 does a poor job at explaining how to play the game or what anything in the mues do. Equipment loadouts are confusing as well as a minefield of pay items.
Con Pay to win
PlanetSide 2 has pay to win mechanics meant to coerce players into paying for equipment to avoid the extremely long grind it takes to earn anything in game. A brand new player with a deep wallet can customize their gear to their prefered playstyle giving them an advantage over those that opt not to pay.
