[QUOTE=Skellyhell;38567781]How can i get certs faster? They seem to accumulate so slowly :([/QUOTE] Play TR, go on Indar, go to The Crown, buy Prowler, park on hill and shoot everything that moves.

Setting up an engy turret inside an objective can also get you loads of kills until a semi competent player comes along. Setting a turret on the bio dome platform is also hilariously easy. As people jump up to the platform gun em down before they even land. Also find a max suit as engy and just follow him around keeping him healed and you'll get tons of xp/certs. tl;dr Go engy and you'll make stupid amounts of certs

[QUOTE=Saber15;38567926]Play TR, go on Indar, go to The Crown, buy Prowler, park on hill and shoot everything that moves.[/QUOTE] I tried that and got weapon locked and shouted at for shooting my squad :'(

What secondary weapon should i get for the Vanguard and what primary should I get for the NC Lightning? I heard anti-air cannons for them are poop.

Has anyone gotten the vanu battle rifle eidolon? its available for engineer, light assault, and heavy assault. Was available on infiltrator yesterday but they removed it for some reason. Curious if its any good, i usually like battle rifles in other games such as the bc2 m14 and svu.

I'm finding it really useful for mid-range fights, especially with the 2x red dot sight.

Does this game have native proxy support?

Did they remove the voice activated microphone usage from the Beta?

[QUOTE=ryfry99;38568192]What secondary weapon should i get for the Vanguard and what primary should I get for the NC Lightning?

It is very effective against armour and relatively good against infantry aswell.

So ummmmm I think there's something missing from this picture. [t]http://i.imgur.com/xdFE6.jpg[/t]

Just installed PS2, what empire should I pick?

Am I the only one baffled by the lack of choice of vehicles in this game? It's really odd. If you want to drive around in a ground vehicle that isn't a tank with at least one more person, you need to buy a 12 slot, 400 resource point APC? I don't see what their issue was with having at least like a little 4 or 5 man buggy was, because right now the lack of choice is just silly. Air vehicles are better in this sense, but again, there is almost no middle ground. You get a 1 man ESF, a 3 man bomber, or a 12 man dropship? What would have been wrong with including an aerial counterpart to the buggy I suggested before. It just seems dumb to leave them out of the game. Very rarely will you NEED 12 slots, but a need for four or five is much more common. Tanks are fine I guess, though I always kind of wished there was a cert that let you turn the lighting into a sort of IFV like the real life bradley to actually make the lighting worth two shits, but that's just me :v:

[QUOTE=Bumgall;38568770]Just installed PS2, what empire should I pick?[/QUOTE] Pick the one that you think fits your personality or create several characters and try out all weapons and vehicles.

Love it when a random dude who decides to hitch a ride in your tank actually spots targets for you.

How many players can a continent support?

And miller is down, AGAIN.

Don't suppose anyone knows of any not shit outfits on Jaeger for TR? I have had pretty much no good team play experiences here, but I'm too far into my character to abandon it for a new server.

Airdropping unsuspecting new people from your Galaxy over enemy territory is fun when they don't know you can survive the drop.

Just jumped into an enemy base, a tower, from the drop pods. They thought i was friendly so I got 20+ knife kills. Was hilarious. I escaped by camming as I was a sniper and jumped into the machinery below the heli pads and sniped them 15x over.

so today i found out when you deploy from an air pod you can take out enemy galaxy's if you land on top of them.

Bah, hate when my liberator pilot flies low and fast. What the heck do you expect me to shoot when you're booking it ten feet above the ground? Best liberator pilot I've had flew about 900 meters up, slow and steady, and had that big cannon as its primary tankbuster. We were so far above everybody's radar, we just slowly cruised around, popping tank after tank. Now [I]that[/I] was a good time!

I was in an upside down galaxy yesterday. Surprised the pilot didn't get weapons locked for 11 team kills.

[QUOTE=Broguts;38569756]You ever been in an upside down liberator?[/QUOTE] i always do this if i get a guy harassing me. just flip upside down for like 5 seconds and you drop so fucking fast

Is it just me or are the vanu carbines and assault rifles overpowered compared to TR atleast. I spray rounds into him as much as he sprays rounds into me and I always die. Even if I shoot first.
