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

I still can't believe this game is out in 5 days. What is the latest patch like I haven't even downloaded it?

[QUOTE=NoDachi;38462784]I still can't believe this game is out in 5 days. What is the latest patch like I haven't even downloaded it?[/QUOTE] Its pretty good actually, sans still a few bugs here and there (invisible sundy's anyone?), but everything is basically polished, tons of new weapons added, all the certs are finalized, etc.

Oh that is cool. I'll check it out saturday, and hopefully get a couple days playing and familiarising before the big push on Tuesday

[QUOTE=MadBomber;38461898]And I've lost count of the amount of times ive been driving out of a base/down path and a moron just runs out in front of my and gets squashed. Also stop standing in front vehicle pads (not you, just a general message)[/QUOTE] Some times when people deploy Sunderers in the bases, the spawn is directly on the spawn pad. And results in instant spawn death when a vehicle is spawned...

I've been playing as Vanu for a while but I've been wondering if I should choose another faction.

Holy flying fuck. ESF's rockets! They can wipe out a gal in how many runs?

So everyone's certs/upgrades/rank are getting reset on launch, right? If so that means I can make some dumb cert investments just to see what different things do.

[QUOTE=Xenocidebot;38458521]So how long is the time to kill a guy compared to the stock NC LMG? Because they appear to have the same damage and ROF stats, but I can't imagine a 750 cert gun would be that, but with a shittier magazine. Figuring out what's better between the Reaper and the VS Lasher is basically how I'm picking faction post-wipe.[/QUOTE] I couldn't say as I don't use the LMG anywhere near enough to be able to make a good comparison, as combat medic is my main class

[QUOTE=RearAdmiral;38463599]So everyone's certs/upgrades/rank are getting reset on launch, right? If so that means I can make some dumb cert investments just to see what different things do.[/QUOTE] Yes. Betas are always wiped.

[QUOTE=Taggart;38463601]I couldn't say as I don't use the LMG anywhere near enough to be able to make a good comparison, as combat medic is my main class[/QUOTE] Combat Medic 4 lyfe It's gotten to the point where I instinctively run towards corpses even if I'm playing a different class.

Strange, my game's launcher isn't working now. I keep trying the shortcut but nothing happens, and it was working fine an hour ago.

[QUOTE=Taggart;38463601]I couldn't say as I don't use the LMG anywhere near enough to be able to make a good comparison, as combat medic is my main class[/QUOTE] Just make a rough guess. [editline]15th November 2012[/editline] Reminds me, never tried Vanu medic, that should be interesting.

I would love to have an antitank rifle as a replacement for the rocket launchers as heavy assault.

time to catch up on 6 gb worth of updates now that optimization is supposedly better.

[QUOTE=kaine123;38464741]I would love to have an antitank rifle as a replacement for the rocket launchers as heavy assault.[/QUOTE] In the early alpha screenshots there was. Anti-material rifles for HA. Like the Lancer for Vanu.

I've never been weapon locked and I'm not even that careful with how I shoot. Yeah people run infront of you, but I almost always stop firing in time before I hit them.

They seem to be stepping it up for the release, finally some tutorials, game runs better, some bugs fixed (although apparently cloaking is still messed up, invisible vehicles sometimes, and when landing with a jetpack sometimes your gun still pretends it's airborne) Other than that it's p cool, can't wait for release so the servers are more populated, I swear 90% of the time I was just soft capping with a decent sized or full platoon and it was tedious as fuq. Still no sign of it instant flipping if you have a bunch of dudes

I'm sure steam will bring the crowds. I'm sure this game will be the success the first one should have been.

It looks mega dope visually, I just hope they change the weapon models, for how long certs take I don't want to stare at the same gun

Hnnng. I just ran straight over a punk ass VS bitch running around in our territory with my lightning and he just stands there, not even phased by a tank going straight through him and fires a fucking rocket up my ass and kills me. He took no damage at all from getting crushed by a tank.

Does anybody know the actual location of the servers or a way to test latency with them? I like Thebe way better than Lysithea, but they're both playable, and I'm halfway between the two, so I want to see if one's just easier to use.
