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

[QUOTE=jiggu;40468821]So lousy NC and VS defect to the other side at first sight of trouble while TR stands loyal.[/QUOTE] Our accidental OP things stay this way for too short time to actually attract 4th faction. So our loyalty is kinda... meh. Though it's really is a thing, TR doesn't fluctuate as visibly as NC or VS, I personally attribute it to TR being fucking boring, a lot more boring and generic than others so the only people who chose TR and stay with it know what they're doing; while kiddies constantly switch between factions and what's next declared OP.

[QUOTE=zombojoe;40470139]it was supposed to be 20% velocity per anchor level but they typo'd it to 200% velocity[/QUOTE] And when they fixed it, they managed to break all tanks to shoot blanks unless they aimed exactly 90º to the side At least now we have a test server

Just tried TR and NC weapons. My goodness NC are so amazing the reaver is spectacular, MAX is fantastic and the sniper is orgasmic. The TR however we're meh

What would you guys say is the best all-purpose TR Assault Rifle or Carbine? It kind of looks like just the S variants are the best as they have the underslung weapons, but I have no idea.

If you like the utility of the underslung launchers then go for it, otherwise they are pretty terrible at shooting things the traditional way. They're mostly for support roles.

You can get some extra weapons if you want to specialize on short/long range, but the defaults go a long way of covering almost every situation their weapon classes are supposed to cover. LC2 Lynx and Cycler TRV for close range as they have the highest fire-rates of their classes, for instance. S-variants are weaker overall and the grenade launcher is pretty bad since they increased the drop and reduced the splash, they're really only worth using on engineer since you get infinite ammo.

I like to use smoke grenade launcher on light assault and smoke the shit out of enemies and then shoot them through the smoke with heat scopes, preferably from a high angle.

it's so retarded you have to buy a whole new gun so that you can then buy the underbarrel attachments to use them

I take back everything I said about new TR helmet. I am not going to buy it. [img]http://i40.tinypic.com/jhes0z.jpg[/img] [img]http://oi39.tinypic.com/317fqs5.jpg[/img] Gotta love SOE's lazyness around that, not changing the helmet one bit to fit it in with other classes than Heavy. It just looks ugly and out of place. The price also makes it so much better.

Seems like the T9 carv was stealthbuffed. It has close to no horizontal recoil(but crazy weapon equip speed). They're exploding over it here [url]http://forums.station.sony.com/ps2/index.php?threads/the-carv-has-been-un-nerfed-on-the-test-server.121277/[/url]

It's good but nothing special, not a rival to Gauss SAW in any way. Don't get it why are they buttmad.

It has a more noticeable effect on horizontal recoil for LMGs, but increases equip speed. Sauss Saw is the same, zero horizontal recoil.

[QUOTE=Ryo Ohki;40475448]Feels like it'd look just fine with any camo[/QUOTE] Actually, yeah, didn't think of that. Have to see how it looks with camo applied to it. Though it won't fit the second picture classes anyway, too big.

[QUOTE=Ryo Ohki;40475448]Feels like it'd look just fine with any camo[/QUOTE] Also whoever took those screenshots is running the game on a very low setting so it looks like ass regardless.

ahahaha look at it on the infiltrator if this cat had a rifle, it would be that infiltrator [IMG]http://www.funnycatsite.com/pictures/Big_Head_Small_Body.jpg[/IMG]

Reminds me of a storm trooper helmet.

Except Stormtrooper helmets matched their armour.

i forgot how stupid tr heavy assault looks without composite armour so top-heavy

like a terrible sitcom space marine that always loses half his armour

[QUOTE=Jimesu_Evil;40476195]Except Stormtrooper helmets matched their armour.[/QUOTE] Earlier on when they first showed the new NC helmet on a regular armored engineer I said that it would be better to just wait for them to come out with the corresponding armor set as well. Back then it looked like a guy wearing a leather jacket with an astronaut helmet on. The TR one is the equivalent of a little kid wearing one of those storm trooper candy bowls on their head in nothing but a t-shirt. Is anyone else noticing how the red on the helmet doesn't even match the red on the rest of the armor? Also, I haven't played the game in any real capacity in about 2-3 weeks. Has the MAX update stuff come out yet? How far off is GU08?

I have the same feeling, but at the same time, the guy who took the pics set everything on low, and I remember color somewhat more vivid normally. But not to the level of that helmet. That big glowing arrow pisses me off. It says "bullet goes here" instead of "fucking run for your life poor motherfuckers".

They probably look pretty okay with composite armour. To me it looks like it's mostly the lack of shoulder pads that make it look weird on every other class, which composite adds to them.

[QUOTE=Trainbike;40471192]I hope they fix Scythes not taking damage when they ram stuff. I'm sick of shithead Scythe pilots ramming me all the time.[/QUOTE] [video=youtube;4Pn-e6dqcf4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Pn-e6dqcf4&feature=youtu.be[/video] Not a scythe only problem, get ready for shithead NC pilots to start ramming even more often then they already do.

If anything I find my reaver far far more survivable with collisions than my scythe. Especially with the ground, its like the winglets don't even take any damage.

The lightning bundle is the same cost as buying things separately. What exactly is the point? [editline]30th April 2013[/editline] Wait nevermind now it's on sale for 900 SC. Is HE still worth it?

[QUOTE=finbe;40479026] Not a scythe only problem, get ready for shithead NC pilots to start ramming even more often then they already do.[/QUOTE] What is that video meant to prove? There is no way you would manage to do that shit mid flight, nor does it show whether you're going to actually survive a crash against another incoming ESF, let alone a scythe. People need to stop doing research in VR The scythe on the other hand can just ram you head on with no problems, player perception my ass. My liberator got rammed twice by a scythe just yesterday and I've seen a member of my outfit getting blown up on a head to head collision while the scythe got away without a scratch
