[QUOTE=thisguy123;42998629]I once saw a rocket podder take out a liberator that was doing that thing where you fly upside down and use the shredder to decimate air targets.[/QUOTE]
To be fair liberators are not that hard to hit, I've done it when my rotary is reloading. Galaxies are even easier.
Do you guys have three or more soldiers on just one server, or have them spread around on two or more servers?

I only have one soldier. ;c

I am just considering if i should keep my three soldiers on three different servers, or delete my two lowest ranked, and put them on the same server as my primary soldier

This entirely depends on your personal context. You should pick based on both what your friends are playing on, and how the lag is.

Yeah, and for some reason, i made three soldiers, on completely different servers when i started planetside. I don't why, but in retrospect it seems sorta stupid.
It WOULD be most convenient to to have three soldiers on one server. If playing with friends etc. etc.

Well, depending on when you started playing you would have been [I]forced[/I] to make your alts on different servers.
so i bought the desperado.
and i love it.
i went on a crazy massacre with just that pistol and my knife at crossroads as HA.
best use of 1000 certs in a good while.
[QUOTE=Jimesu_Evil;42996944]Holy shit that is pretty good. 200sc for the SMG alone is worth it.[/QUOTE]
How does it fair against the faction specific SMG's?

Welp as someone who unfortunately bought the Eridani SMG when it first came out (worst SMG in the game) sounds like an easy sell:

i peeked at it in vr. does it still basically become an automatic pistol if you tap mouse1 real fast?
The SC buy link isn't working for me :(
EDIT: Nevermind, despite doing allow-all on my script blocker it still wasn't working with it, just had to disable it.

it feels more like a pocket SMG to be honest.
Shit, i didn't know you could only buy the starter kit once. I just randomly activated it on my non-primary soldier, without knowing it was a one off.
[QUOTE=dracotonisamond;42999940]it feels more like a pocket SMG to be honest.[/QUOTE]
great, so the terran republic get a pistol with an extended magazine instead. which is super pointless, because considering it's the worst pistol stats-wise, anyone you shoot at is just going to turn around and shoot you with their better weapon before you get to use the extra bullets.
Is there a point in not using full-auto on any gun with the option?
Would it be a good idea to use the PDW for my NC heavy? I like the Gauss Saw and all, but I've been looking for something that works better at close range, without going all the way down to a shotgun, and this looks cheap enough to work well

Aren't generic camo's and the NS SMG account-wide?
I don't think the boost is though. Even if it should be.
[QUOTE=munky91;43000447]Is there a point in not using full-auto on any gun with the option?[/QUOTE]
Extra long range shooting, other then that i always fire in burst or just spray if i think that i can hit my target.
[QUOTE=munky91;43000447]Is there a point in not using full-auto on any gun with the option?[/QUOTE]
Some carbines (i.e. solstice SF) I get much better results doing burst at range, much more controlled fire.
Also nice in close range because I click to shoot 3 bullets instead of having to hold the button down.
So Spamming the deafult dumbfire rocket launcher into a horde of infantry feels much more effective than it should be.

The Eridani is the Orion's hotter, thinner sister. It isn't about hosing, it's about high uptime bursts of headshot into the unsuspecting. Took me a while to get a feel for it to but once you treat it like a close-range scout rifle or little LMG it starts clicking.

I'm happy with the default launchers at the moment, as a [del]dickbag[/del] guy who plays HA with my rocket launcher in hand when I run around corners and packed battles, I feel like I have to be pretty accurate in order to hit someone and kill/severely wound them, there isn't a ton of splash damage

Problem with the eridani is that the mag size is way to low for the damage/etc and if you go with extended mag you pretty much throw away the ability to use adv. laser sight which is extremely useful for SMG's
It's literally worse in every single way to the Sirius, which has double the mag size, slightly less damage and slightly longer reload.. but who cares when its better in every other way? The only way Eridani even starts paying off is if you managed to become a god at timing short reloads (effectively making the mag size EVEN SMALLER) and are pro at taking advantage of the slightly higher DPS it can offer.
[QUOTE=Flamie;42997752]This game has been too easy recently, do you guys have any tips on how to make the game interesting?
How do you guys play Planetside to make it challenging?[/QUOTE]
Stop using ZOE.
[QUOTE=Trainbike;42999339]Well, depending on when you started playing you would have been [I]forced[/I] to make your alts on different servers.[/QUOTE]
I made all my alts on different severs but then the servers merged.
[QUOTE=lekkimsm;42998905]Do you guys have three or more soldiers on just one server, or have them spread around on two or more servers?[/QUOTE]
I have a soldier on all 3 factions, on two different servers. NC on Matherson, TR and Vanu on Waterson. I don't play the Vanu because playing as Vanu makes me worse at the game. They're that easy to roflstomp with. Besides, they're ugly as dicks
Wish the max weapons weren't so expensive, or else I'd play as MAX a lot more :v: Don't like being stuck with the chain gun and the other grenade launcher thing.
[QUOTE=Del91;43004281]I made all my alts on different severs but then the servers merged.[/QUOTE]
this.
also, i cant play other factions because i just end up shooting friendlies and getting mowed down by enemies.
especially TR coming from an NC main, red is blue and blue is red.
I wish they rewarded players from the first game, at least free composite armor.
Why do so many people play terran?
