[QUOTE=Saber15;42025038]They don't clip through terrain - if you fire a Striker, you can see the missile (usually) intelligently swerve past rocks and hills to hit targets. I guess it just has the same stupid problem that the Phoenix has, where only the player firing the missiles can see the things turning.[/QUOTE] I guess they mean that as the same fix also has stuff about the phoenix missile being visible on all clients. It still will be much nicer when you actually see the missiles move.
[QUOTE=Saber15;42024949]You can negate an entire salvo from multiple TR Strikers with one level in IR smoke or decoy flares.[/QUOTE] It's been confirmed for a long while that flares and smoke don't affect any missile with the new targeting AI in flight, which means you have to deploy them before the rocket fires to negate them. That period of safety is ludicrously short.

[QUOTE=munky91;42027774]I just thought of faction specific grenades. Wonder if that'd be fun.[/QUOTE] I've been thinking of Faction specific Snipers and Shotguns (In a similar vein to the Lasher, Jackhammer and Chaingun), Where for snipers, TR gets a burst fire rifle (think incisor from Mass effect), NC gets an anti material rifle capable of damaging tanks and shit, and the Vanu get a clone of the Lancer. For shotguns, TR gets an AA12, NC gets a double barrel shotgun, and the Vanu get a weird chargable sonic boom thingy. Would be pretty nice considering that the shotguns and snipers are identical for all factions :v:
I haven't played in about a month or two and was wondering if preformence issues with the game have been improved at all?

I haven't played this in about 3 months, has much changed?
[QUOTE=RobbL;42068091]I haven't played this in about 3 months, has much changed?[/QUOTE] nothing
[QUOTE=Eltro102;42068216]nothing[/QUOTE] No new maps or anything?
[QUOTE=RobbL;42068381]No new maps or anything?[/QUOTE] Hossin is on the test server right now.
[quote]excellent progress on optimization. We will have more info out this week.[/quote] [url]https://twitter.com/j_smedley/status/374991084037758976[/url] YES!
I pulled a MAX and the game crashed almost immediately after, and logging back in spawns me as light assault That's okay, I didn't need those 350 infantry resources and 15 minutes anyway
I haven't played in a few months, I come back, all of the sudden I just start crashing to desktop randomly, no errors or anything. My 2 friends have the same thing happen to them also. I just want to play again :(
I play all the time and experience no crashing but a friend of mine who has just started playing crashed a couple of times.

Maybe I'll finally be able to turn on shadows
[QUOTE=kukiric;42087166]Next week's announcement: "You'll be able to buy framerate improvements at a rate of 500SC per 5FPS, up to a 30FPS increase!"[/QUOTE] This isn't EA.
Has the devs mentioned anything about server transfer token costs? Or when they're coming out?
[QUOTE=Jimesu_Evil;42087306]This isn't EA.[/QUOTE] 9buxforvehiclehorn.jpg
I so hope those great improvements will have any effect on CPU bottlenecked machines (which is the issue for a lot of people I believe)
[QUOTE=kenji;42095262]9buxforvehiclehorn.jpg[/QUOTE] Point.
[QUOTE=luckyg;42069123][url]https://twitter.com/j_smedley/status/374991084037758976[/url] YES![/QUOTE] Hopefully my framerate wont be going from 80 to 20 sporadically now.
Hopefully my framerate would rise above 10-15 and convince me to actually play this game.
[QUOTE=Rethill34;42102014]Hopefully my framerate would rise above 10-15 and convince me to actually play this game.[/QUOTE] I am fairly certain a majority of the player population plays at sub 30 rates
[QUOTE=BusterBluth;42102045]I am fairly certain a majority of the player population plays at sub 30 rates[/QUOTE] I'm still refusing to play when my framerate can't even manage 30 at the lowest settings.
[QUOTE=BusterBluth;42102045]I am fairly certain a majority of the player population plays at sub 30 rates[/QUOTE] Considering most players who get a better rig talk about how their daily KDs jump by a factor of 2 to 7, I would agree. Looking forward to testing this myself later when I make my new rig.

I'm in the top ten Lancer assholes on Mattherson and I get 10FPS during large fights. It just means you should keep your twitch shooting stuff to squad-on-squad things and switch to gimmicky bastard stuff when it becomes a 200 dude hex.
How big is the difference going from the M77-B to the RAMS .50M? I mostly snipe long range but I don't know if it would be worth spending the 1k certs (plus scope and suppressor) for what is basically a bullet speed increase.

I mostly snipe long range but I don't know if it would be worth spending the 1k certs (plus scope and suppressor) for what is basically a bullet speed increase.[/QUOTE] There is very little difference, except at extremely long ranges. At those ranges, one must question if you're actually doing anything effective. Not saying you won't have times to do it, but I would feel it'd be rare. I'd actually recommend the bolt-action scout rifle, if skilled headshots are your thing.
