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

That's because it only works in Shop tab, afaik.

[QUOTE=blazingfly;38152133]But they made the liberator USELESS; the chainguns seem to be purely anti-infantry, giving you no option for true anti-ground air units without waiting ages to get certs (I see they reduced the rate you get them by a lot) or by PAYING. I did expect this game to go Pay2win but it sucks that it finally happened.[/QUOTE] The Dalton for the Lib is 48 certs. That's like 1-2 hours of gameplay if you're not fapping at the warpgate.

Fucking rocket pods cost way too much holy shit

Just got our base wiped out in 10 minutes by a fucking mob of MAXs. There were at least 12 of them charging as a group front control point to control point, it was a nightmare.

Any news on when ps1 become free?

I think I'll be a galaxy pilot tonight

Is the beta open now, or did I just get really lucky?

Ugh, its still unplayable inside bases. Whenever I get into a gun fight my FPS goes from 50 to 10.

[QUOTE=zombojoe;38159746]Ugh, its still unplayable inside bases. Whenever I get into a gun fight my FPS goes from 50 to 10.[/QUOTE] Tonight I only dropped to 20; it's getting better for me!

my fps goes from 60 to like 58, your shit's all jacked

Managed to rez the same guy enough during about 3 minutes to get about 6-7 certs during a TR push up the hill towards Ti Alloys. I would rez him and some NC sniper would kill him about 2 seconds later. Does anyone else's Medical Applicator randomly just decide to not work. It will do the animation to start the heal but won't heal the target or draw the green beam.

I fucking hate this game, but I can't stop playing it. I'm not saying that as a joke. I [I]really[/I] loathe how much they've streamlined it from PS1, but it's really easy to jump into on a dime, so... I play it when I have nothing better to do, like I used to do with Team Fortress. The difference between those two is that I'm getting sick of this much, much faster.

I eat them for fucking LUNCH, no joke. I mean as long as you're shooting and grenading/rocketing/sniping them they are easy as shit. Also, does anyone have the full weapon unlock list? Like before they hid all the other weapons before the auto shotguns came out? I really want to see my shotgun options considering that the autoshotgun for TR is absolute shit for shotgun slugs.

Because if yes I was with you in that galaxy.

[QUOTE=Catdaemon;38160501]I don't think you understand the concept of a max crash. 50 maxes with shotguns communicating via voice comms are not something you shrug off.[/QUOTE] Yeah, now I get the picture. I read it as there only being 10 MAXes instead of there being [B]50[/B] MAXes attacking for 10 minutes. sounds painful. also, given their descriptions and magazine sizes, it seems like 'scout rifles' are battle rifles? So I can make something like the SKS in battlefield 3? Because I've been dying for a good semi-auto rifle in PS 2. Shotguns and slugs just don't cut it.

Gah, I had REALLY low health in my Reaver so I try to land it. 1 bump at it explodes :v: [editline]24th October 2012[/editline] also, how do you change the health bar (and shield) position? I haven't figured it out yet...

I won't be happy until they put water into the game.

[QUOTE=scratch (nl);38163854] also, how do you change the health bar (and shield) position? I haven't figured it out yet...[/QUOTE] There's alternative HUD(or something like that) checkbox in options menu.

Anyone who played infantry for more than an hour as and against each faction would have realized this awhile ago though.

[QUOTE=SinineSiil;38164187]There's alternative HUD(or something like that) checkbox in options menu.[/QUOTE] Oh wow how did I not see that :v: thanks a lot though. [editline]24th October 2012[/editline] Why did they make it that when cliking a certification page, the name of the page goes up and one of the cert takes it place? I've now spended 24 certs on flares for a liberator while I never get one of the damn things.

Since they have low recoil, too... that's not balanced.

So what does Vanu do to make up for the fact they dont have a MBT? Make lots of lightnings and levitating tanks, or go for a more air based approach. Also, do the Scythe's weapons get better? Because the default lasers are like a bb gun to everything.

[QUOTE=Bi0hazard;38166015]Uh, it looks to me like TR has mega DPS. Since they have low recoil, too... that's not balanced.[/QUOTE] DPS is meaningless in a game where the TTK is this low.

[QUOTE=Raidyr;38166055]DPS is meaningless in a game where the TTK is this low.[/QUOTE] What's TTK?

Time To Kill I guess?
