[QUOTE=Shotacon;38633746]You idiots need to let there be gunners in your magrider. You get points and you don't look like a huge douche.[/QUOTE] I don't let people gun my tanks who aren't on teamspeak with me. Random pubbies just start shooting at everything they see and get a bajillion aircraft to descend on me when I'm trying to sneak around behind enemy formations.

[QUOTE=nVidia;38637726]They ran out of guns. >:[/QUOTE] RIP NightHawk It better goddamn be available before the sale ends, gonna buy so many of it that they'll fall out of my pockets when I run. Still need to know about those boosts though. Can you pause them? Also why would you ever get a resource boost over a XP boost?

what the hell did they do??? i am suddenly getting 115fps at the warpgate, with the mandatory NC gal pile even...

Oh shit, VS high capacity shotgun is on sale. $3.50 for two more shells... [QUOTE=jiggu;38637735]Also why would you ever get a resource boost over a XP boost?[/QUOTE] Well because if your favorite thing to play is MAX/Armor/Air a resource boost allows you to play it for longer.

Oh it's those resources, I thought it was CERT gain.

Thank the lords for teammates that are throwing grenades into large groups of [B]friendly[/B] people that are capping. Racked up probably 500 points in a few minutes, by just healing and reviving.

Racked up probably 500 points in a few minutes, by just healing and reviving.[/QUOTE] I was once a medic and someone said in chat "Press G for free certs!" while there was a good 30 people capping. The number of points I got was ridiculous, I just couldn't revive people fast enough.

[QUOTE=biodude94566;38638640]Imagine if you had the res grenade.[/QUOTE] Oh, right, that's the next thing I have to cert. That and the AOE heal upgrade.

How does shit like this happen? [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/k4TNi.jpg[/thumb] and this: [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/dr77F.jpg[/thumb]

Every time I log out and log back in the next day, I have like 10-20 more certs than I had when I logged off.

I find myself taking my scythe gripping one wing in between the tongs and then turn off my engines and drag them into the ground.

[QUOTE=Birdman101;38638780]Every time I log out and log back in the next day, I have like 10-20 more certs than I had when I logged off.[/QUOTE] There is passive cert gain when you're offline.

[QUOTE=Trainbike;38638874]There is passive cert gain when you're offline.[/QUOTE] fucking awesome

[QUOTE=coyote93;38638936]Ey, i got another quick question, how is this game compared to bf3 / mw3? Is it more like bf3 than mw3? And are there bulletdropp on weapons? So that a sniper gets some challenge?[/QUOTE] Bullet drop and travel times.

Gonna try launching this game again after a shitload of changes to my own aging PC. If those FPS optimizations work then it will be all right If not I'm going to have to overclock my quad Q6600 and post-order an I5 + socket compatible motherboard for when my Q inevitably breaks from the OC

[QUOTE=Birdman101;38638948]fucking awesome[/QUOTE] Just a reminder, it's 16 certs during for 24 hours since last log in.

[QUOTE=krail9;38636776]NC guns seem to have an excessive amount of recoil and no upside to make up for it [editline]29th November 2012[/editline] they were fine in the beta but they increased the upwards recoil significantly due to complaints[/QUOTE] The recoil is quite ridiculous right now. I understand and fully agree that they need high recoil to balance the damage per bullet but right now the TR might as well have no recoil at all compared to NC. I play both NC and TR quite a lot and from eyeing the recoil of both faction's weapons it seems like NC weapons typically have around three to four times as much recoil, it's particularly noticeable when comparing their default LMGs.

*sigh* I was in the process of deleting the TR and Vanu characters I made. When I got to the TR dude, I went to delete him, I type his full name and my NC character which I'd spent about 4000 SC on is removed. Screw the TR.

Doesn't capping passive cert gain kind of defeat the purpose it was originally implemented for, to allow people that don't play that much to still be able to get stuff?

I assume the outfit roster in the OP is very outdated,do we have any outfits now? If so,which server are they on?(I've been playing NC mostly but I'll switch to TR if necessary,not Vanu scum though)

So I'm new and I made a terran empire guy, does that make me superior to everyone else?
