Ok, I'm currently coming to the end of the Planetside 2 download and based on what I have heard so far...

It seems like a pretty darn confusing game.

So, Since I'm coming in with NO idea of what to do, what should I try? What republic, or faction, or whatever, do I go with? Whats a good starting class? I sort of know what the basic idea of the game is, but oter than that I got nothing.

That should help, and what faction you pick is up to you, just read the bios.
Classes are a lot the same, whatever fits.

"Starting class"

That's really more up-to your personal tastes. I usually don't stay with just one.

I'd probably recommend the Terran Republic. They probably have the best abilities.

TR: "They are characterized by having the fastest firing weapons, with the lowest damage per bullet. They also have the fastest vehicles, with the lowest armor. Their faction colors are red and black."

New Conglomerate: "They are characterized by hard-hitting weapons and heavily-armored vehicles that are designed with straight lines and hard edges. Their faction colors are blue and yellow."

Vanu Sovereignty: " They are characterized by advanced directed-energy weapons and highly mobile hover vehicles. Their faction colors are purple and cyan."

Go with the TR. They generally have the easiest-to-use weapons, have the best spot in Indar (Being in the north means you own over 50% of the land and can reach The Crown effortlessly), and generally are good at the game. How are the people? It depends on the server. The people in the server where The Enclave was the most popular outfit were some of the worst people I have ever met in online games, the people in the server where Total Rekoil was the largest outfit were very polite and played fairly. VS are always have bad manners, we fellow NC suck at the game big time.

Expect to be dropped into battle with absolutely no understanding of what is going on. When you die, respawn at the warpgate and figure stuff out.

Be a team player. Want to snipe some guys, but the Advanced Mobile Stations is taking heavy fire? You won't be able to snipe for much longer if you don't become an Engineer and help repair it. Still want to snipe some guys? Follow a triage of Infiltrators > Medics > MAXes > Engineers > Heavy Assaults > Light Assaults.

Find out what role you are best at. I'm a Light Assault. I jetpack over walls with a Mauler shotgun and C4, and I sabotage fortified positions. Sometimes I get in a Reaver ESF (Empire Specific Fighter), kill someone, get shot down and eject, and land in the perfect position for killing a dozen guys.

When someone is healing or repairing you, DON'T RUN AWAY. THEY ARE TRYING TO HELP YOU. Also, don't run over them.

If you eject from a Galaxy, you won't take fall damage.

If you are a medic, the triage chain you revive is MAX > Medic > Engineer > Heavy Assault > Light Assault > Infiltrator. MAXes, Medics, and Engineers are especially important because MAXes push the frontline and cost resources to rebuild, Medics can keep the frontline up and revive you when you fall, and Engineers can repair MAXes and fortify a frontline using turrets/ammo.

If you are an engineer, REPAIR MAXES. REPAIR MAXES. REPAIR MAXES. REPAIR MAXES. DID YOU GET THAT IN YOUR HEAD YET? NO? REPAIR MAXES.

If you are a MAX, STICK WITH THE TEAM.

LOOK AT BOTH SIDES OF THE ROAD BEFORE CROSSING. THIS WILL GREATLY HELP YOUR K/D RATIO.
