Planetside 2 Thread v2 - Beta floodgates open GOOD LUCK EVERYBODY - Games

Man, the vehicle inheritance laws are really fucking dumb. "Hey man remember that lib I bought that you are in and I'm not? Can you come pick me up?" OH WAIT. Once you get out, give it maybe a ten minute waiting period or so, then the vehicle is free game. Or some way of letting your buddies/squad members fly a vehicle that you own. Maybe keys you can chuck at them.

It made parking Galaxies a nightmare.

[QUOTE=KorJax;37566077]I wouldn't mind speccing into a sundy with the moarters. I feel like that would just be total rape.[/QUOTE] Mortars are apparently pretty broken atm, so it wouldn't be worth it.

galaxy clearly crying in the corner

[QUOTE=Zar;37566586]How do you get missiles on aircrafts?[/QUOTE] You have to buy them through the in-game store for Araxium.

[QUOTE=krail9;37559674]my launcher has been in Spanish or something this whole time and I didn't notice :v:[/QUOTE] [sp]upsidedownexclamation&questionmarksnotonmykeyboard[/sp]Que!!!!??? [editline]6th September 2012[/editline] Also what are all those weird thing you buy stuff with. I know they are resource but why have 4 of them.

[QUOTE=Contag;37566180]It's good to get used to the main cannon, though. Also AA can't shoot below their level, so just hover facing up to wipe them out.[/QUOTE] I'm fairly used to the main cannon, but it isn't too effective versus installations. Many a time have I spent 3 magazines to take out a single AA turret. I haven't really been able to test out the rocket pods too much, but I'm fairly pleased that I finally have them, been waiting a long time.

Did anyone notice how travel music got added? Spawned as terran it played until someone started shooting. If it's been in for some time, then it's pretty rare.

[QUOTE=kukiric;37567215]Did anyone notice how travel music got added? Spawned as terran it played until someone started shooting. If it's been in for some time, then it's pretty rare.[/QUOTE] Someone said they heard the same for Vanu from time to time a while back, but it seems to be extremely rare right now. I personally haven't heard anything like that yet.

I thought I've been neglecting the NC too much so I thought I'll play them again. I just got a 17 killstreak as an infiltrator. All headshots. I think that is my highest infantry killstreak so far. Even then I still felt kinda useless, I was only popping the non-HA idiots who stayed still too long so I didn't give my awesome spot away too much. I guess it's because when you're playing infiltrator, sure you get a good KDR but your KPM is so low and infrequent trying to get good shots that I would have probably gotten 30-50 kills in that space of time playing as a HA and would have been securing points and soaking fire.

Buying Tomcat Missiles for the Reaver. We're doing this bro [B]We're making this happen.[/B]

the default gun is very effective at taking out other aircraft

Also are reavers really that strong?

[QUOTE=JerryK;37568815]the default gun is very effective at taking out other aircraft[/QUOTE] Yes, [B]BUT I REALLY HATE SCYTHES[/B] [editline]6th September 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=cdr248;37568858]Also are reavers really that strong?[/QUOTE] not so much strong as the other factions aren't that spectacular (except the physics defying scythe) and there are a fuck ton of them at all hours.

I'm not in the outfit, and I'm the one who started the damn thing.

Oh my god what just happened was comedy gold. My scythe is going down, I see an enemy, aim for him, jump out at the last moment, scythe crashes, I survive. Realise my chosen enemy is a super confused TR MAX, start shooting at him, preparing to die an honourable Vanu death, when suddenly, the Reaver that was chasing me, smashes straight through the MAX in a super low curve and then keeps going like nothing happened. I was like "wut."

Does anyone know when exactly the IGN keys will be handed out? I want to know if it's a midnight release sort of thing.

composite armor is shit,how is flairs .6.5k away from getting air to air lock on missile better be worth it.

I finally have 12500 Auraxium, but the question is what to actually use it on. Already got my skyguard, not sure if I'll be doing much rocket runs.

What faction are you?

[QUOTE=NoDachi;37569672]What faction are you?[/QUOTE] Terran

I know I'll get a lot of negativity from asking this. How/where can I obtain a beta key are there any giveaways coming up soon?

From what I hear anyone with an IGN account will get a key on the 7th

This game is starting to get a little boring. It's lacking the strategy and base mechanics from the original, which is making it feel an awful like Battlefield. The battles as epic they might seem visually feel pretty shallow to me because it doesn't really feel like you're fighting for anything anymore.

I too don't really find my self motivated to log in. Only if there is a squad of friends going. It is missing a lot of the meta game though, so maybe in a couple of content patches it'll be fun again.

Yay I got a key. Now to die horrible deaths!

I know my interest will be renewed when they add chain guns for HAs
