The appeal of taking the same set of bases over and over will not last forever.
I'm cool with it. I don't even need new guns. I've put many hours into Battlefield 3, which is much less fun than this. It might get boring without friends, but with them it can last forever, though maybe with breaks.

I imagine 2 of the continents will be completely capped, by TR and NC respectively. No land for VS though. Only the warpgates, as both TR and NC descend upon the third continent, leaving a massive frontline drawn across the land.

It doesn't really work that way, because you can never cap the warpgate. They'll never have enough manpower to bottle VS up in the warpgate on both continents while simultaneously engaging them across the third continent AND avoid fighting each other. Simply doesn't happen.

One day, the great TR and NC empires will unite in a glorious crusade against the much despised Vanu scum.

I've heard that factions only had one uncappable warpgate in the entire game on Planetside 1, and you could push enemies off of any other continents until they could gear up to take it back.

I also recall a story where the uncappable warpgate stopped being able to spawn for the TR, and they were wiped off the map because half the people left in protest and the other half had to face the combined wrath of both other factions actually cooperating.

There are towers with a neon ammo symbol at some bases, park near them.

I know it's possible to cap a complete continent, because yesterday the second continent had a message on the map. Something about "Last capped by Vanu: X bonus awarded".  ???

They just mean all have been capped but the warpgates.
