So I played a little Vanu today Their guns are fun but their vehicles are ass I mean seriously the MBT has the turning radius of an aircraft carrier

[QUOTE=cdr248;37554405]The NC music reminds me so much of Firefly.[/QUOTE] Old theme reminds me of Terrans from Starcraft. Not so much now though.

God dammit, it's getting to a point where as soon as I enter the air space over any hotspot in a Reaver, some other guy pops out of fucking thin air with A2A missiles, locks on, and one hits me. Ugh... SoE, why did you make the same mistake DICE made? It isn't helping that certs gain so goddamn slow, and that flares are costing 100.

NC music makes me think of the SC2 campaign

In order to offically join the outfit, you must be on at the same time as me to actually get the invite. If you are in the above list, or want to join, feel free to hop on and give me a tell (by typing "/tell KorJax01 *your message*" in the chat) so I know you are online too. [/B] I'll make a post when I stop playing or log off so you know when you can't get the invite

Man I wish they would give me beta, I signed up on the first 2 hours or so of when you could sign up for beta. I also tried logging in on their website today to see whats up and it said I needed to reset my password, so I did everything correctly and it said I input the password wrong and now I need to wait 24 hours to do it again...What..the fuck.

Do you need a IGN Prime account in order to play in the closed beta or just an IGN account?

[QUOTE=Daniellynet;37556278]I'd love if they added this into the game: [URL]http://www.reddit.com/r/Planetside/comments/zebtn/what_vs_should_have_as_a_replacement_for_flash/[/URL] [t]http://i.imgur.com/j7lsZ.jpg[/t] We're VS, we're the future tech, but we still use ATVs like every other faction. The lighting could use a change too.[/QUOTE] That's because all the factions purchase their non-tank/fighter vehicles from Nanite Systems, a corporation of some sort.

[QUOTE=mastermaul;37557495]That's because all the factions purchase their non-tank/fighter vehicles from Nanite Systems, a corporation of some sort.[/QUOTE] Still, I hope they do eventually give some cosmetic changes for each empire's neutral vehicles. TR: Lightning would have a more bulbous turret and fillets on the edges of the tank to give it a smooth appearance like the Mosquito. NC: More chipped paint, reactive armor panels slapped on the sides. VS: Serrated "gill" heatsink panels like on the Magrider on the top of the tank, ahead of the cockpit.

There was a giant battle over the Auttum Bio Lab or what ever it is called on East 01. Shit lasted a few hours and I logged out 4 hours ago. I wonder how long it was going on for.

Any idea when they're going to implement new infantry weapons on the store? I'm dying for a shotgun on my Infiltrator so I don't have to rely on my pistol if I want to cap bases. Plus I want to know what certs they might have for shotguns related to ammo types, IE if they will include slugs for mid range fighting

Though its still high damage

[QUOTE=KorJax;37558700]Use laser sight on your rifle, they actually rape indoors because of semi-auto Unless you are NC. Though its still high damage[/QUOTE] Yeah, I'm NC. I would expect to be dead before I got two shots off on the enemy. At least the Mag-Shot pistol kicks serious ass at most distances where I'm ineffective. I mean I win most shootouts even when the enemy has the upper hand, but a dedicated CQB weapon would let me use the infil all the time. Also I dunno why they don't get C4. They give a combat medic C4 but the Infil only gets bouncing betties? Its like they want to reinforce the camp tramp sniper style >.<

[QUOTE=KorJax;37558700]Use laser sight on your rifle, they actually rape indoors because of semi-auto Unless you are NC. Though its still high damage[/QUOTE] I'm dumb and/or too lazy to look right now, what's the key to switch weapon firing modes?

Hey guys if your still looking for a outfit using the google doc, please also include your steam id so Recruiters can add you through steam since some of you don't have your steam account linked to your fp account! Thanks! [editline]6th September 2012[/editline] [url]http://steamidfinder.com/[/url]

[QUOTE=SiberysTranq;37559047]I'm dumb and/or too lazy to look right now, what's the key to switch weapon firing modes?[/QUOTE] B, only works for assault rifles though, it would be nice to have it on the TR pistol or LMG

Join the steamgroup! [url]http://steamcommunity.com/groups/fpplanetside2[/url] Especially if you are interested in being in an outfit. Announcments will be posted when leaders are online (since you have to be online at the same time to actually get an outfit invite).

infil is supposed to be able to hack gens and stuff, no need for c4

my launcher has been in Spanish or something this whole time and I didn't notice :v:

[QUOTE=Daniellynet;37555738]Hm... What is your framerate? Sub 60 when meeting others? How good are you at shooters?[/QUOTE] I've not had any framerate problems, and I'd consider myself fairly good at shooters.

Why are all the servers locked? I've only just finished installing the game so i haven't had a chance to play it yet.

[QUOTE=nightlord;37560586]Why are all the servers locked? I've only just finished installing the game so i haven't had a chance to play it yet.[/QUOTE] The game is still buggy as hell, so they can't risk blowing their servers up by testing the game 24/7. Plus, it's still closed beta so they must update bugfix regularly. Anyway, comeback at around 5hrs, when the servers will open. (iirc)
