Planetside 2 V6 - VS capped Indar? It's more likely than you think - Games

I'm going to join the OP war by complaining about LA with C4.

[QUOTE=munky91;40436817]I'm going to join the OP war by complaining about LA with C4.[/QUOTE] Tanks are getting a health buff, and they are working on balancing AV turret projectiles so they aren't insane invisible instagib machines, should deal with C4 and all of the other batshit insane AV options, even if it doesn't "solve" the c4 thing, it will probably make scout radar viable which is a pretty good counter to C4.

Here's one of them Nvidia codes if any of you want it :~) PCHF-77RR-9MNK-TZDM-9TG4

[QUOTE=Squarebob;40436899]Here's one of them Nvidia codes if any of you want it :~) PCHF-77RR-9MNK-TZDM-9TG4[/QUOTE] Thanks. Got the Zepher.

I don't think the health buff will be near enough. 2 C4 will still probably annihilate a tank. Additionally, C4 is useful against every single land target. I'm tired of all of these "you can kill anything" weapons that are instant death. If you get an instakill weapon, you should be able to kill one set of things, not all of them.

[QUOTE=Sharp_Shooter;40436928]Thanks. Got the Zepher.[/QUOTE] Curious, how many higsbucks did it give? [editline]27th April 2013[/editline] [QUOTE]This is an exclusive promotion across the entire company (not just PlanetSide 2) which gets these cards into more than 8,000 stores and in front of folks who may try out the game. There are plenty of double SC promotions and will be another general one soon. Just not this weekend.[/QUOTE] [url]http://forums.station.sony.com/ps2/index.php?threads/7-11-store-locator.120410/[/url] Neat.

[QUOTE=jiggu;40436945]Curious, how many higsbucks did it give?[/QUOTE] $50 for 5000 SC Also incompatible with all double/triple SC promos. :suicide:

That's still not bad, not bad at all, too bad I had my game shut down

[QUOTE=jiggu;40436980]That's still not bad, not bad at all, too bad I had my game shut down[/QUOTE] It looks like not much, but I was able to buy almost everything I wanted. But what do you mean when your game shut down? Just a crash or something much worse?

[QUOTE=BoBakkenLives;40437004]It looks like not much, but I was able to buy almost everything I wanted. But what do you mean when your game shut down?

Is 7-11 really that rare in the US? In Taiwan there's one on like every city block

[QUOTE=d00msdaydan;40437103]Is 7-11 really that rare in the US? In Taiwan there's one on like every city block[/QUOTE] 7-Elevens are sparse here in California. Unless you live in the bigger cities they're pretty rare. California might be just be the odd one out though, it could be totally different in the rest of the states. Getting back on topic. I gotta say the racer chassis is far better than the rival combat chassis for the sunderer. It basically becomes a muscle car, the max speed is increased to 80kph up from the 70kph so you'll overtake and pass everything but the flash on the battlefield and it accelerates like someone flipped the nitro on. Even the extra horsepower from the racer is better than the slight boost of traction the rival combat gives you for hillclimbing, even more so after the devs fixed the sliding issue. The racers huge boost in forward acceleration also outweighs the rival combats reverse speed bonus. Not to mention the steering radius boost is a joke. The racer chassis feels like it has a much bigger impact on the overall performance and control of the vehicle than the combat chassis. Try 'em both out in the VR simulator and put 'em to the test for yourselves.

[QUOTE=Trainbike;40436290]Quick question, what's your opinion on the NC? Do you think they're about right, OP, UP or what? I'm an NC player myself but I've been feeling increasingly OP lately and whenever I fight NC on my alts I always seem to get super wrecked. Plus there's the fact that all of the 4th factioners seem to be attracted to them right now.[/QUOTE] Personally I think the NC are a bit OP at the moment. While fighting them and occasionally playing as NC, I find their weapons to be deadly accurate while dealing a large amount of damage at the same time. You can fire at them in full auto, landing most of the hits and they'll still be able to drop you in the blink of an eye. I think the removal of flinch may have something to do with this. I often see NC using their LMG's as sniper rifles. and of course... FUCKIN' HACKSAW MAXES (TR MAX deploy should balance this) TR have got it pretty hard on Connery at the moment. The NC population is still as big as ever, along with a whole bunch of 4th factioners that want to get their hands on the best weapons of the moment. While VS has risen from being the minority to sometimes having a higher pop than even NC. Which I think is related to getting the North gate on Indar. It's probably going to get worse when we merge with Helios, because apparently TR are the minority on there. What does everybody think of TR in terms of balance? I often see people calling us OP or saying we're not allowed to complain about balance because we have no disadvantage, but I really don't see it that way. Some examples would be nice. /rant.

[/QUOTE] I think the TR are balanced, but that might be just me being biased because LOYALTY UNTIL DEATH their fire rate is balanced by their relatively low damage but honestly they seem a bit underpowered compared to the NC now.

The high RoF/low damage kinda bites you in the ass if you want to shoot someone far away because your RoF means jack shit when you're in semi auto

TR are balanced against other TR, but don't compare to NC currently.

TR get no love from the devs. I would like to see a NC nerf, or a TR buff. Vanu seem pretty balanced to me atm. I know the factions are meant to have different styles but making one good at everything is a little bogus.

[QUOTE=Crimor;40436356]If you guys ever want a good joke, go look at the stats of the different smgs and look at the TR ones damage. [sp]NC: 167, VS: 143, TR: FUCKING 125[/sp][/QUOTE] I use the TR SMG Hailstorm on almost all my classes and it serves me very well. It is knowing how to use it. Use that fire rate to your advantage. The gun is a bullet hose fire from the hip with all the correct attachments and you will find it out does the other SMGs. ---------------- I often get into a fight with this gun as inf against other infs using their SMG variant. I normally win. Only down side to this gun is that killing heavy assaults is hard. They will sponge nearly all of your 60 round mag and that is if you are hitting every shot.

HA sponge SMG's anyway, ive noticed it with the NC SMG Blitz

[QUOTE=kenji;40440998]HA sponge SMG's anyway, ive noticed it with the NC SMG Blitz[/QUOTE] Yeah, it really does make me cry to sneak up on some nasty HA with my infiltrator and all he does is pop the shield, turn around and laugh at me then shoot me. You need some proper headshots closeup if you're going to kill him in time.

They just whip round, dakka dakka, I''m dead. A freind of mine noticed this and had this little outburst as a result.

[QUOTE=jiggu;40442583]How is that even possible?[/QUOTE] Ask the people who made the NC smg. It's like they can 180 and every shot will instantly be replay moded to you head.

Outfit platoon just had a 40-man Flash race from Indar Warpgate to Surva Bio. I came second. :v:

[QUOTE=BlackRainbow;40439860]It's probably going to get worse when we merge with Helios, because apparently TR are the minority on there.[/QUOTE] It has a has a smaller player count. But you're right about the TR being the minority. Helios is like 40% NC, 40% VS, and 20% TR. For every TR I've killed there are probably twenty more dead Vanu behind him.

I only manage to get like 30fps on low, does anyone know how to optimise this game at all? My rig isn't even particularly bad.

I find there is a big performance difference between running the game on my SSD, and the test client on my HDD.

Is there a place I can get the ambient music that only starts when there's no enemies nearby? It's great music to listen while I'm doing fuck all.
