Planetside 2 Thread v2 - Beta floodgates open GOOD LUCK EVERYBODY - Games

Cert gain is painfully low, and why did they say they lowered the prices, it seems to me that they made them higher.

[QUOTE=>LEAD22<;37955805]Anyone tried the new vanu bolt action yet? I'm getting tired of hitting some guy twice before he just runs off behind cover before I can hit with a 3rd/4th shot, then dying from a shot to the toe from a bolt driver.[/QUOTE] The default sniper isn't designed for long range engagements, its great for medium range though. So if you are using Vanu infiltrator, keep in medium range and dont try and snipe at long ranges unless its a really easy target. The only problem with this playstyle are the scopes - they don't give you any options for good medium range scopes, and the sights on the vanu sniper suck complete donkey balls. I've yet to try the one in the store. I'm trying to save up for it, because personally I prefer a bolt action that requires one good shot to a semi-auto that uses multiple shots.

okay i tried the game and i have literally no idea what to do, never played planetside before

[QUOTE=Scrappa;37959414]Game is completely unplayable due to framerate for me, meanwhile I play Battlefield3, TotalWar Shogun2, World of Tanks and plenty of other games on their maximum settings no problem. Any suggestions?[/QUOTE] Wait until full release when they optimize it for a larger array of computers I'm assuming you are using a Core2 processor (or similarly aged processor). PS2 only runs smooth on semi-recent processors from what I gather (ie iX's or PhenomII's or etc). It seems like almost every person running the game on a PC with a processor older than the iX line runs it like ass, while iX processors (even if they aren't that good) run great. The solution is to wait until they put in optimization and such for the older processors.

Finally got into the beta and cant play the game because as soon as a I join a server I have 0.5/fps and Planetside 2 stops working, great.

[QUOTE=d00msdaydan;37958087]Nanoweave doesn't replace your shield and is better than nothing, you get to Esamir using the terminal by the spawn tubes at the warp gate that has a globe icon, but you don't want to go there unless you're NC because they always have the continent locked down on both servers[/QUOTE] Thanks. Is there a better choice than nano? And is there a way to get a scope back on HA launcher? I prefer it over the current redneck variant. :v:

Anyone know a guide or something that can tell me how to be succesful on light assault?

[QUOTE=alx12345;37963199]Anyone know a guide or something that can tell me how to be succesful on light assault?[/QUOTE] basically just travel in a squad and attack undefended bases so you totally wipe out whatever opposition wanders in

huehue my VS character has a KDR of 31. [editline]9th October 2012[/editline] 51

[QUOTE=NoDachi;37964365]huehue my VS character has a KDR of 31. [editline]9th October 2012[/editline] 51[/QUOTE] i've got a tr character like that because i only play infiltrator :v:

There was more tank than infantry, this is stupid lol. [img]http://imageshack.us/a/img87/5930/img20121008192224.jpg[/img]

58... and the US server just went down, ending my reign of terror.

Anyone using SMAA or SweetFX? It's crashing for me :(

[QUOTE=NoDachi;37964365]huehue my VS character has a KDR of 31. [editline]9th October 2012[/editline] 51[/QUOTE] my main NC character is that way. By the time the wipes happen I'm typically using a bolt driver with 12x scope so I'm not exactly a player the enemies tend to see

I just discovered the joys of the stealthmag. People rely so much on their radar, especially vs vehicles. So I can just magboost and flank all their dumb tanks and shit. I can't wait to try out the AP driver cannon. Ultimate tank hunter.

If anyone would be so kind to send me a Beta key, I'd be very grateful.

[QUOTE=d00msdaydan;37965685]Can't you throw grenades through the barrier if you own the facility or is that just if you're inside the spawn room?[/QUOTE] you can only throw/shoot out. I tried, it didnt work out too well.

[QUOTE=d00msdaydan;37965685]Can't you throw grenades through the barrier if you own the facility or is that just if you're inside the spawn room?[/QUOTE] I think he is outside the spawn room and can't go back there since it's a one-way portal. Nevertheless, that is some cheap spawn-killing trick from the NC. Although I've seen some good members before (played on the same server and seen that BangBusDriver once when we capped the entire esamir yesterday)

luckily they are adding the spawn pain field soon so this exploit wont be possible.

Woo just got in to the beta, what do I need to know?

[QUOTE=Mattk50;37965548]we just took this tower. GJ NC you are obviously pros[/QUOTE] You say that as if TR and VS never do it themselves.

Soo, which faction should I join?

[QUOTE=Bloodshot12;37966861]Soo, which faction should I join?[/QUOTE] The one with the guns.
