why does no-one use the thing which allows sunderers to penetrate enemy shields and magic energy fields?

that exists?
[QUOTE=Jamsponge;38614901]Well, all the effects that PhysX itself enables.[/QUOTE]
I haven't seen any PhysX Effects.
I might've missed something, but does any have any explanation/fix for the random crashes that I'm still experiencing? No error messages are saved, the game just crashes, usually when doing things in the menu, spawning, and such things.
Some idiot kept shooting me in the back during a facility take over today. Not accidentally either, and not for a short burst. This fuckhead would consistently knock out my shields and bring me to half health or less.
Eventually I had enough and shot the shit out of him and let his body sit there.
Then, unexpectedly over the mic some kid starts literally [I]CRYING[/I] that he can't figure out how to spawn because a teammate killed him and wouldn't bring him back.
He drowned out the squad leader who was trying to help him. He drowned out the platoon leader that was telling him to shut up. He practically drowned out the sound of battle and tanks firing until I turned the receive volume almost all the way down.

Then you can't use AMS.
MMMMM delicious Vanguard shield. I love imagining the look on a pilots face thinking they are taking great chunks of my armor off only for the smoke to clear and I'm glowing blue.

I think the saying goes "A miserable free man is better off than a contented slave"
It is like this, and not what you said because
A: Your comparison is disjointed in that you compare wealth to a happy state of mind, albeit that of a slave. However, the slave is still cared for and doesn't have to worry about feeding himself.
B: The correct statement compares two ideologies of the two factions, the NC puts a value on freedom above all else. Even if a person is worse off, there is no limit to what they can achieve, whereas a TR citizen is under authoritarian rule and while enjoy the relative peace and prosperity, they are no longer masters of their own destiny.
So I conclude that you are wrong on all counts of both TR and NC ideology and that you should undergo self-exile as a male VS infiltrator.
I kinda wanna cert into AMS even though I don't plan on using sundy/vehicles any time soon (I like being a grunt man for now). Just because when my outfit isn't online, I can literally just drown in XP
Early today made 95certs in 1.5-2hr (with some idle time) just by constantly repairing and dropping down ammo supplies at a major techplant assault. Plus a few kills here and there.
On that note, I can only imagine the kind of XP you get from a mass revive grenade used in these spots.

Cripes.

How come? You have like 4 utility slots. Also is it the same for the vehicle ammo restocker? And the vehicle repair thing, would be fucking awesome to have a sunderer with good guns, heavy armor, allows respawn&restocking of players, vehicles and repairs them too.

Just like one of my japanese animes!

Oh, right, that's what I forgot to cert. Slug ammo first, though. Gotta see how the doomsneezer works when it's more accurate.
They should really make it more apparent to players somehow that MAXes can be revived. You see medics ignoring their bodies so often, even with engineers around.
[QUOTE=nVidia;38615742]Then you can't use AMS.[/QUOTE]
That makes it sort of pointless then, doesn't it? I understand that if it were to be made into a spawn point bases would be nigh impossible to defend, but what is the point of going through the shields if all that achieves is getting 12 people through and then getting blown up?
Or actually, I can see it being useful if you have like 2-3 sunderers doing that and dropping off like 36 people to then drop the shield generators. But given the attention these things normally attract, I would think that a prolonged attack from multiple deployed AMS sunderers would still be more effective than just one push?
After the new update, it seems Indar got a nice optimization while the other two stutter like shit.

Yeah that's what I'm gearing my medic towards;
Step 1: max out revive tool.
Step 2: max out bandoleer size
Step 3: get revive grenades.

You get one ability, one defense, and one utility.
Gosh darn Vanu scum. I was capturing some tower all by myself when a Scythe came flying by to check out what was going on. Shot a couple rounds at it and it turned towards me flying in my direction. Went out the ground entrance, got underneath it while it was scanning the area I was just at and shot a rocket at it blowing the purple bastard up.

Alright.
[editline]27th November 2012[/editline]
I gotta say the AA rocket launcher that heavys got is damn nice, even though it doesn't do that much damage everyone who gets a lock on gets terrified and runs away, really clears those stupid aircrafts out of the sky. And you can use it just fine against ground stuff too.

idk I think getting even one sunderer with 3-4 people into their spawns would easily defend itself with its guns and if anyone used rockets/grenades it would still kill their teammates and if nothing else would get a load of spawnkills

[sup]jaeger tr master race[/sup][/QUOTE]
oh good we got it again, I was there on jaeger when we conquered it the very first time as TR :v:
If anyone sees a TankerTom on Jaeger on NC. That's me. I'm thinking of buying(with money) the AA gun for the secondary but I am unsure If I should take the AP or the HE canon. But since I always endup doing both so I will probably stick with normal canon. I also took stealth, race chasie, a couple levels in respawn timer, and more ammo for the canon. I am working towards faster reload for the canon at the moment.
Any TR facepunchers on Genudine?
What's with the gold pistol good ornament on the Flash?
Also, who is on the Miller server?
is anyone playing on the Cobalt EU server it's usually pretty even between the teams over 1-2 hours but map control constantly yo-yos
Jaeger is not a NC friendly server. VS control esamir and TR almost always own Indar, Amerish is usually between VS and TR with NC never making any progress. Even when we have population equal to the TR and above the VS. Nc players just suck I wish the Prowler was as fun as the Vanguard then I would go back to playing TR again.
[QUOTE=blazingfly;38615243]I really wish they'd stop punishing people for playing the part of the game they enjoy the most.
Like air? Enjoy waiting fifteen minutes between playtimes.
I just play another game during this time.[/QUOTE]
It's only punishing people who nosedrive into the ground 2 minutes into it.
Where are the under barrel grenade launcher certifications located in the menu? It's not under weapon certs and I can't seem to find it anywhere else.

I have a NC there, I don't play it though.

NC are actually making good pushes on Indar now

They're only on specific weapons, and at the bottom as rail attachments. You sure you have the right one? The rifle they go on is normally otherwise shit.
on helios the NC can pretty much only play on indar. the other two are locked to vanu and NC pretty much all the time.
and indar we nearly get pushed back to the warp it seems every night.
