[QUOTE=XIII_GT;37643542]How did you guys get an invite ? I signed up for beta like 2 months ago through the website..[/QUOTE] keys via twitter. [URL]http://twitter.com/#!/planetside2[/URL] just ask them like I did. I got it via facebook though, was one of the first, but in the end it didn't matter when you got the key

How do I get weapon attachments like sights and shit? And how do people survive jumping out of vehicles like Galaxy and shit, is there a parachute?

Flew a Galaxy to the Crown (already an ongoing battle). 5 points, 5 points, 5 points, 5 points, 5 points.. So many spawns it's ridiciolous. Although I wish I had the Sunderer there. Galaxy is just way too big of a target at the Crown.

To combat how bad I am at fps's, I am going to learn to be the best bus driver ever.

Darn it twitter. Why you not loading!? Stupid ISP at it again. My luck is always fucking terrible when it comes to beta keys.

"There is insufficient space, please free up 8GB of space" How big IS this update jesus christ.

[QUOTE=ISPYUDIE;37643948]"There is insufficient space, please free up 8GB of space" How big IS this update jesus christ.[/QUOTE] I'd be worried about bigger problems if you don't have 8 GB of space free. Also, some guy asks for Galaxy gunners. Sure. I get in, we see a Galaxy, he goes for it (why? I don't know. I was the only gunner) The enemy Galaxy gets stuck, he rams our Galaxy into the enemy Galaxy. I blow up the enemy Galaxy by repeatedly shooting it. Bail out shortly after since our Galaxy has 0% HP left according to the health bar. Our Galaxy blows up. Can't see shit. My former Galaxy pilot yelled SHOOT THEM, SHOOT at some point earlier. After the wreck is gone he calls me an idiot and teamkills me. Although some other guy saw that and teamkilled him for me I guess. :v: Some people are short tempered. [editline]12th September 2012[/editline] Revenge is sweet. Spawned on the warpgate and who do I see? The guy who teamkilled me! :D I killed him. [editline]12th September 2012[/editline] Well, met him shortly after that again. Was a gunner in his Liberator.

Sorry about lack of OP still folks, and just not being on for my comrads under the Facepunch Illuminant. Been getting hit with work and school, and I'm kind of taking a small break from PS2 right now just because I'm really liking the up-and-coming changes and don't feel like spending my limited time playing an "inferior" build. I can't wait to see what removing gal spawning would do to the game, sounds great. They really need to make it so it replaces something though (like removes the top turret or something, or gets rid of the class-change terminal) in order for it to not eventually end up exactly like before though. As far as the FPI, I prob should make someone a leader as well for recuitment and organized play and such. Not that it matters anyways since 70% of the people who joined the outfit are NEVER online and only joined to just be apart of it (I'd like to ideally boot people who never play on East01 VS who joined because the FPI is ideally focused on organized casual play with Vanu's "finest" [aka facepunchers lol]. So there's no point in being on the outfit if you never play on the server, as it defeats the purpose]. [editline]12th September 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Daniellynet;37641080]Would be neat if the OP actually became an OP. Docs, mumble, a quick F.A.Q. and some quick information about the game so we don't get people asking the same question all the time.[/QUOTE] Don't feel so bad, nobody reads OP's anyways. We'd still get the same questions every other page

out of curiosity, is anyone else constantly torn between the factions? Like ill get sniped by a bolt driver so ill play NC, die to a scythe, start playing vanu, get gunned down by TR and repeat. :v:

i think the NC has the unfair pistol it has more ammo shoots faster is a like a fastreloading smallclip smg while the rest have stupidass slowfuck little pistols that shoot compressed balls of useless

[QUOTE=Starship;37643692]How do I get weapon attachments like sights and shit? And how do people survive jumping out of vehicles like Galaxy and shit, is there a parachute?[/QUOTE] Certifications for sights and attachments, open up the weapon tab under the class category in the certification menu. For now simply jumping out of a galaxy mid-flight will allow you to live, might change in the future and require certs. And because I'm assuming this question is coming up soon, new weapons are bought through the store by spending Auraxium which is earned over time, with the size of the deposits depending on how many hexes that produce Auraxium your empire holds. You'll also get some Auraxium with XP gain and capturing command consoles at bases producing Auraxium, additionally, taking out defenses and terminals will also net you some Auraxium.

[img_thumb]http://puu.sh/14tiW[/img_thumb] The TR on east 3 would rather try and futilely push into the VS rather than defend and reinforce our own resource flow. God dammit.

Time to get on and assert NCs dominance over West 03. Gettin KICKED. Edit: Also, Who took FlynnWynn on West 01? You Piece of shit.

Someone named "LIHALOTTO" tried to add me to friends in PS2, but is not responding to whispers. Anyone from here?

Despite my love for Heavy Assault, I wanted more accuracy so I switched to Light. Let me say that the Foregrip has greatly increased the accuracy and oh god it's great.

[QUOTE=Giacomand;37639847]I have a feeling it's people who have ATI graphics cards that are having problems. My game is running smoothly and it crashes like once or twice every 5 hour play session.[/QUOTE] I have a 6870 and it runs great

[QUOTE=Giacomand;37639847]I have a feeling it's people who have ATI graphics cards that are having problems. My game is running smoothly and it crashes like once or twice every 5 hour play session.[/QUOTE] I'm running all settings on high at 50fps with a 6850 also I've never crashed :v:

i swear vehicle locking seems to be absolute bullshit at the worst of times taken a facility, mostly clear of enemy forces, galaxy floats down to pick up his squad. i start to hear sniper fire and desperately try to get into the fucking thing, turns out it's locked and it flies off for me to eat a bolt driver to the head

I got a spare beta key, first one to PM me gets it

Have any of you attached weapons to a flash yet? I'm temped to try it, but I'd like to know if they're useful to any degree whatsoever.

no [editline]12th September 2012[/editline] not useful

I keep getting Error G4. Anyone know why?

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;37647047]I keep getting Error G4. Anyone know why?[/QUOTE] peerblock or firewall

Waiting for The beta invite is a pin in the ass.| Which factions did you guys chose. If i get in,i'm tempted to join Vanu Sovereignty.

How long are the EST servers down?

[QUOTE=Lick;37647083]peerblock or firewall[/QUOTE] I disabled my firewall for this game cause whenever I'd launch it it would freeze my computer.

Are the Scythe A2A missiles good? It's either that or the AGMs for me.

So I was playing infiltrator for NC when I snuck up on a terran light assault, I unloaded my pistol into him and he turns around and shoots me 3 times (I only heard 3 shots) and I fall over and die. Then I see this [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/2e2TF.jpg[/IMG] That made me rage quit so hard. And no, he wasn't killed immediately after killing me, he just walked off as if nothing happened.

[QUOTE=MadPro119;37647182]How long are the EST servers down?[/QUOTE] They said 10 minutes, it's been at least 20-25. Also, anyone figure out how people keep glitching into walls? I see it all the time at the warpgate.
