[QUOTE=NoDachi;38406982]It is though. The same exp per kill, the same exp per objective.

I doubt you get 6-8 kills per minute because that'll give you an astronomically high score per hour. Higher than the highest kill farmers.[/QUOTE]

I'm picking headshots at a sunderer. if we're defending the crown or mao or something, yes 6-8 kills per minute.

if we're assaulting camp waterson, more like 2 kills per minute

I'm talking about your [B]actual[/B] kill rate. Not that little burst of kills you get every now and again.

If you get 6 certs per hour you are getting about 1500 exp per hour. Which is 15 kills per hour at the very least amount of exp per kill you can get, or objectives. Which is probably more like 10 kills per hour. Or 0.16 kills per minute.

I played this for the first time in ages just now. Holy shit my frame rate is now massive, and holy shit those 1024 certs. The vanguard shield is much more shit than I thought it would be though :(

[Thailandur]

Holy shit I lost ~180 certs overnight, whatsup with that?

[NoDachi]

[QUOTE=Thailandur;38407195]Holy shit I lost ~180 certs overnight, whatsup with that?[/QUOTE]

It appears every time they change the certs or exp system stuff breaks like that.

Last time they compensated be with like 200 missing certs with 3000, so here is hoping.

What's the best cert grinding class? Guessing medic due to the revive, but haven't tried it yet so no idea how much exp it gives, but you have to add the exp from the faster captures too.

I hear a rightly placed ammo box can be a good exp farm.

But I guess Medic can be good aswell, since they're really combat effective too.

But I personally like HA because vehicles provide tasty exp snacks. I got over 550 exp for a single magrider once.

I'm not sure which is statistically better though.

I do like HA, but that requires quite a bit of cert thrown at it before you can lock onto stuff :v:

That and the NC lmg's awesome sound.

Medic during a big assault with a deployed sunderer outside. The xp notifications never stop. Ever.

[Crimor]

I find it funny, I always end up in supporting roles, I like keeping an entire group on the move.

I hope he gives certs to people that didn't play:( I really wish I didn't spend all those points getting a shitty mcg or heavily upgrading my lightening :(

[Taggart]

jonoPorter you must join me later for another NC rape train, shit was amazing

anyone else on NC on Eurydome is welcome to come too ofc

[Parakon]

after giving the game more time it owns, I wish it would just give the team that has a thousand dudes on the empty enemy base the cap sooner though.

have you read the latest patch notes? :v:

It's one of the key features of it.

[Parakon]

yeah I read that but it doesn't seem to happen, I rolled around with anywheres between 12-30 dudes essentially softcapping and we had the wait until the bar filled up every time.

we just got a significant resistance and the servers restarted for cert issues.

Some people were losing several hundred certs so SOE decided to be nice and give everyone a thousand

[Nerdalert]

Ever since the update I can't get on now. The first time I launched it showed the character screen, but my dude wouldn't load and when I pressed play nothing happened, also couldn't create or delete any characters. So I relaunched it and after 15% loaded it just gave me a black screen with the HUD (weird considering I didn't pick a character or anything) and now every time I try to launch it just gives me error G4

[Parakon]

I'm getting that too but there was a reset or update a minute ago.

[KristoferKSR]

Just launched game after a few weeks.

6571mb, nice.

Has it gotten better nearing the release date?

[NoDachi]

[QUOTE=Rapist;38407896]Has it gotten better nearing the release date?[/QUOTE]

I think it has gotten ~better~

But it certainly isn't release ready.

[Thailandur]

Is it just me or does everyone get "Game Error G4 Malfunction:gameError.defaultMessage" when they try to login?

[Jimesu_Evil]

Servers are down while they fix the missing cert issue.

I get that too, kinda annoying

Holy shit im retarded, I just read that on twitter and tried anyways.

[Trainbike]

Maybe it's just because I've barely played due to having only just got a key yesterday but my only real gripe with the game has been that a lot of the menus are cluster fucks. Also it's a bit jarring for newcomers since the tutorial popups are woefully minimal. I think I only got three or so, I don't know whether that's normal or what though. Luckily since I used to watch videos of both PS1 and more recently this I managed to figure it all out quickly enough and joined in a few assaults on some facilities and got to work, but for people who are completely unfamiliar I can see it being very confusing.

Yeah, okay.

Also what's with the fucking 3GB patch?

[Taggart]

every single patch is like 4 gigs

but why
