SOE has this Player Studio program where you can make content for their products, and if the devs give it the thumbs up then your stuff gets to be in the game.
So what content did I submit for an epic, modern FPS with notoriously high system requirements? Low-res sprites! 16x16 pixels, to be exact, and I guess Planetside 2's art lead was having an off day when my crap ended up on his desk because it passed and now it's in the game!
They're little soldiers dudes from each of the three factions, and they're vehicles decals so you can slap them on the side of your badass sci-fi death machine so the noobs know you're hardcore!
The shit-eating grins seem fitting.
