Here the other thing. Offline Skilling means you can be working on loadouts while you are not actively playing. You have the 2 mins to login, change a skill, and log out. While you cannot be everything at once, you can have every skill learned, and then change your loadout as you see fit when you do play. There are no limitations other then the boundires of the skills, which faction you choose, and how you decide to customize each of your loadouts in Planetside2.

Higby has already stated that a "Map" [insert Continent] will be roughly 8 Kilometers square. There will probably be 7 or 8 Continents, plus the space in between them and the entire Z Axis.
