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

[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;38541397]So i got some of the stuff i bought yesterday, but only for one of my characters. There's still a camo pattern, a helmet + a rmor set that haven't showed up yet. Anyone know how to fix this or if SOE is working on a permanent solution for it?[/QUOTE] If I am right, when you buy stuff it only applies to that character. Which is mega stupid like super mega

[QUOTE=JDB;38541599]If I am right, when you buy stuff it only applies to that character. Which is mega stupid like super mega[/QUOTE] I would only rank it as quasi-stupid. I can see why they want people to invest in individual characters

I don't plan to play TR or Vanu, tried them during beta and didn't like either. Just felt weak in comparison to New Conglomerate. So I have no issues with that.

really like the themes for the three factions all spot on

I swear NC on Woodman is full of morons. No one ever seems to grasp that you can't shoot through shields and you need to take out / defend generators. They just stand there trying to get kills that they will never be able to achieve.

well tbh the game doesn't really teach you much it just drops you into a hot zone and then pretty much expects you to learn everything by yourself that and it's release so you're going to have a ton of people who have no idea what they're doing

All my station cash is gone... what do?

If you don't know how to use WASD and the mouse, you're not in the right game. Cause that's all you need to know, really.

[QUOTE=Stalk;38541888]All my station cash is gone... what do?[/QUOTE] Support. They're slow which I assume is because of the volume, but helpful.

I managed to learn it very quickly, and that was when there was no tutorial [I]at all[/I]. Not even the few pop-up info pages that they have now. I don't even consider my self very smart or a quick learner or anything, so if I could manage I expect other people to be able to. Plus it's a fucking shield, they even have shield icons on them, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.

light assault best class 2012

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;38541926]light assault best class 2012[/QUOTE] they dont contribute to team though

They just announced on the server not to use boosts and then do a weapon trial. You will lose the boost. I saw this announcement literally less than a minute after I started a weapon trial. Fuck me. My alpha booster is gone.

[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;38541926]light assault best class 2012[/QUOTE] Engineers get the same default primary weapon. Plus they can supply ammo and turrets. Engineer or Combat Medic best classes 2012.

[QUOTE=legolover122;38542035]Engineers get the same default primary weapon. Plus they can supply ammo and turrets. Engineer or Combat Medic best classes 2012.[/QUOTE] We did light assault rush on the shield gen in a tech plant. they didn't expect it and it went down easily, but we couldn't hold it down whatsoever. :(

[QUOTE=dill6869;38541984]they dont contribute to team though[/QUOTE] I disagree. Their manoeuvrability does wonders for flanking and cutting enemies off. Just because they can't drop ammo or heal doesn't mean they're useless. When you have people using the jetpack to get to roofs or other advantageous areas and using it to come up behind enemies through balconies etc then you can get them pretty much trapped. If you have LAs just running along with everyone else then yeah they're pretty worthless.

Is there anyway to change and configure controls? I can't find an option for it

just had a 15 kill streak on the towers of Freyr Amp Station I ran out of ammo with my primary so I switched to pistol and still killed people including heavy assaults with shields up. FEEL THE MIGHT OF THE NEW CONGLOMERATE

new conglomerate music is so reminiscent of sc2 terran music lol all those days of playing sc2 has made me love it

I still giggle at all the people who say it sounds like nickleback. Seriously it doesn't sound anything like it at all unless you're a bit silly in the head

I've already bought 30 dollars worth of Smedbucks. Worth it.

LETS JUST PUT A SUNDERER RIGHT UP NEXT TO THE SHIELD AND GET A BUNCH OF PROWLERS AND MAX TO STAND IN FRONT AND DO NOTHING!

So Psycho is playing some MLP game in the PS2 section - [url]http://www.twitch.tv/buzzcutpsycho[/url]

-=snip=-

75% xp boost, awesome.

Seriously, what the fuck is up with people attacking the shield walls? I've had my entire squad sitting there with people screaming at them to move 40 feet down the wall to the open entrance where we really needed help.

Is it just me or are the servers near overburdened right now? Had some noticeable lag when I was playing.

So how long does it take to unlock a new weapon, say for a vehicle. In the beta it took forever to get enough to unlock anything, maybe 16-24 hours of gameplay or so for a2g missles. I swear if its the same way I consider this game pay 2 win/grind 2 win, considering anything you wanted to unlock was a direct upgrade to the basic stuff.

whats single use camo supposed to mean? do you spawn a vehicle with it once then you lose it or something?
