Test Server Access

Help us make PlanetSide the ultimate online gaming experience. Become a member of our Public Test Server and preview new features and gameplay while at the same time helping us discover bugs to squash before they make it to the live servers.

To access the public test server, just follow these instructions:

  • Patch PlanetSide normally.
  • Copy (do not move) the entire PlanetSide directory to a new location on your computer.
  • In the PS directory, find "PlanetSideTest.exe"
  • Make a shortcut to the test patcher on your desktop.
  • Run the patcher and, if desired, hit "play" to enter the PlanetSide test environment.
  • You'll go to a server selection where three servers will be listed. Select the one named "Public Test".
  • At this point you'll be able to enter "Public Test" normally.

*Please remember, the public test server is for testing the game. At times we may find it necessary to wipe all character information on this server to facilitate our testing process.
