[QUOTE=Anonymuzz;38604607]i'm playing NC on connery, mostly so i can stalk the shacktac players[/QUOTE] shacktac is connery? I wonder if they have an open outfit.

I keep getting screen flickering. How do I make it stop, short of restarting the game? Because that's pretty darn annoying.

Restart is the only way.

I managed to stop the flickering by minimizing once. All other times, my game has crashed too fast for me to try it again.

I see sky texture flickering every now and then, is that the problem you guys talk about? fuck you soe goddamnit.

[QUOTE=MoarFunz;38605344]I see sky texture flickering every now and then, is that the problem you guys talk about? fuck you soe goddamnit.[/QUOTE] Nope, [I]everything[/I] flickering. Ground, people, sky, buildings, etc, etc. Entire screen just goes [I]blopblopblopblopblopblopblopblopblopblop[/I].

the HEAT cannon for the lightning is godlike, it oneshots infantry and has such low projectile falloff and it wrecks other vehicles so hard

[QUOTE=Pie108;38604379]We should probably set up a list on the main page to have a quick reference where most people are. Oh and don't be afraid to leave your time zone, the lag is hardly noticeable. If you're West coast, East should be fine, probably not EU though. EU connects fine to East. Sorry Australia.[/QUOTE] Lag is bad enough on my own server.

[QUOTE=MoarFunz;38604612]Game works so smooth on your pc, specs?[/QUOTE] not my recording in the video, but it's an example of what i experience. i have everything on as high as it can go (including draw distance in the options) and still get some terrible draw distance but my FPS hasn't dropped once. specs: Intel i5-3570 ivy bridge 3.4GHz 8 gigs DDR3 RAM EVGA GeForce GTX 670 2GB some other shiz that i can't remember / too lazy to look up. game runs and looks great, my only problem is the draw distance. really the only time my FPS had dropped to a noticeable low is when there were 30+ mosquitos flying around one base all shooting their rocket pods at the enemy spawn with another 50 tanks shooting at it. even then it only dropped to like 30 [editline]26th November 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Big Dumb American;38605359]Nope, [I]everything[/I] flickering.

Assuming that they're jumping off the cliff to go somewhere important and not just accidentally running off the sides.

So me and some NC scums stood face to face with the large generator shield between us. Somehow I managed to knife one guy and they all got riled up and tries to knife me through the shield. Suddenly the generator goes down and we massacred them all. TR 4 LYFE.

So whats the best weapon for a Vanu engineer?

I sometimes wish the Flash had a 2nd Seat TOW Launcher upgrade for 1,500 Certs.

Just started playing, is it at all possible to set the HUD up to actually make sense? I'm mostly playing Terran, which means that both allied emplacements -and- any spotted enemies turn up red. It's bloody frustrating trying to work out what's going on.

use the centralized hud

I don't see what's so complicated about that. Also, I'm starting to get sick of the bugs and crashes. This game is still super-fun, but I can't help but think that it would be so much better if they gave it 4 more months of testing or so.

[QUOTE=Eltro102;38606399]use the centralized hud[/QUOTE] that's not even close to what he's asking

i'm confused. i bought the most powerful sniper rifle on the TR side yet the highest magnification scope i can get is 4x. what the fuck? it's a bolt action with "very long" range is there something i'm missing here

Is investing in the Sunderers AMS and just parking it somewhere for points worth it?

yes

Gosh deng idiot enemy pilots that don't know I'm shooting them from behind. I was chasing a Mosquito through a canyon when he stops mid flight to shoot at my teammates on the ground. Lucky for me I brought his health down low enough that when I accidentally rammed him he blew up while I still had 50% health.

So, is the Outfit rooster in the OP correct, or do we have a NC outfit on LithCorp, EU?

Anyone play on the US East server whose name sounds like Watson?

[QUOTE=Uesrname;38606551]Is investing in the Sunderers AMS and just parking it somewhere for points worth it?[/QUOTE] sunderer ams is one of the few 100% must-have unlockables in the game, even if you dont use it all the time.
