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

Any performance tweaks you guys recommend? The game seems to run a lot worse for me than it did a couple months ago. I'm down to just medium instead of med/high.

[QUOTE=munky91;45300163]I find the T16 the best at range. TMG-50 hits harder, but I can't aim with it as well as I can with T16. MSW-R is my favorite overall, but its performance at range is not as good as the T16. [editline]5th July 2014[/editline] If you had any lasers, foregrips, or their advanced variants on guns that support advanced variants (and only guns that support advanced variants), you were refunded certs and lost those attachments. They combined the advanced versions with the regular version, making a single 200 cert advanced option. Strangely, the attachments still seem equipped, so if you just don't take them off you may just default to owning them in a several months, similar to how you could equip different grenades in VR a long time ago and you would keep them in the regular game. Otherwise you'll have to spend what you've been refunded to get what you had back.[/QUOTE] nah it ain't that. It's on the field that I get double XP for kills and whatnot. I did get lodsa certs on my BR61 which used multiple advanced things. they've been put to a good use: flare gun :D

If you don't have the RAM then you'll get stuttering from texture quality being too high, so that you can lower to get rid of it

I'm down to just medium instead of med/high.[/QUOTE] I think I can help, I spent a week trying to find out how to get the most out of the game and this is going to take you to your UserOptions.ini file. Which by default will be something like C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\PlanetSide 2 Now Planetside 2 is very weird as people have said lowest doesn't mean best performance. So here is what I've changed and you might want to make a copy of the file just in case these do not help you so you can revert back. [Rendering] GraphicsQuality=3 TextureQuality=1 ShadowQuality=0 RenderDistance=500.000000 Gamma=0.000000 MaximumFPS=60 UseLod0a=0 OverallQuality=-1 LightingQuality=0 FogShadowsEnable=0 EffectsQuality=0 TerrainQuality=1 FloraQuality=0 ModelQuality=1 ParticleLOD=0 MotionBlur=0 Smoothing=0 UseAspectFOV=0 [Terrain] RenderFlora=On And that's about it for settings wise. I have a medium level laptop rig and I get about 40 to 30 FPS during fights. During non fights I can get to 50 FPS. OH and Razor Game Booster. It doesn't do to much but it did give me +3 to 5 FPS so if your really looking for FPS it wont hurt. I've also noticed that the RenderDistance doesn't do much. It can help a little if your in a base that's having a big fight and you turn it down. But when your flying I've noticed that having it up helps performances wise too.

textures on ultra means your processor doesn't have to spend time downscaling stuff, which is a big thing in this processor heavy game.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention its been a long time but I think 1 was ultra or something.

Been playing as NC, just started today. Loving Heavy Assault.

Hey Heavy is the only way to go!

Tried my hand at Light earlier on, but I felt exposed while reloading. Why reload when you have an Automatic Rifle?

Light assaults are my favourite class tbh. I find the mobility to be a lot of fun. Usually I just go with whichever class would be the most helpful in any given situation though. I don't really understand why some people only ever play one class and nothing else.

Though I do like Heavy Assault for storming into places. The shield is quite nice to have, and I do like their weapons. But yeah, mostly light assault. C4 from above!

They still need to fix the balancing of the tanks. Its insane the prowlers can take the same amount of punishment as a vangaurd and then do way more damage in a shorter amount of time.

[QUOTE=Swilly;45313786]Its insane the prowlers can take the same amount of punishment as a vangaurd[/QUOTE] Uh... can they?

[QUOTE=Swilly;45313786]They still need to fix the balancing of the tanks.

And Prowler damage is only better when they're deployed, otherwise their DPS is slightly lower due to having to line up the second shot.

What do you guys prefer (if that weapon allows both) : faster reload or bigger mag on vehicles? I'd say bigger mag as less reloading in a whole seems better. Also, I've been playing TR lately after 500 hours of NC and they feel kinda weak. Either it has to do with me getting used to their weapons or they're just not as good as NC weapons at same ranges.

Either it has to do with me getting used to their weapons or they're just not as good as NC weapons at same ranges.[/QUOTE] Depends on what class you are using and what weapon you are using. For the Engineer it would be wise to roll with a T5-AMC or HC1-Cougar and for a Medic either a T1S or SABR-13 depending on your play style. For Heavy assault at close range the Minigun with the attachment for firing faster is really good and for range I find the TMG-50 to be best. Whilst using an Infiltrator at range you will want an M77-B and for close range the Armistice or Hailstorm. I never play Light assault or MAX so I cannot advise weapons for them. I tend to find myself getting killed using other weapons. I might just be really used to my weapon sets but I find most other TR guns crap. For a sidearm I tend to use either of the NS revolvers depend on what range my primary is for. Once we get faction specific weapons I might be tempted to use the full auto pistol rather than the underboss as I only use the underboss in defence if my primary runs dry.

Personally, i don't use HA unless the situation requires it. Im Medic/Engineer because its the easiest way to get Certs. Im focusing on getting the final upgrade on my med applicator at the moment.

[QUOTE=Swilly;45313786]They still need to fix the balancing of the tanks. Its insane the prowlers can take the same amount of punishment as a vangaurd and then do way more damage in a shorter amount of time.[/QUOTE] They may have the same health, but their damage coefficients are different from tank to tank. The vanguard is the most durable of the three tanks.

The last 2 times I logged on I couldn't find anything interesting to do. Just constant swarming of enemy bases where they were stuck inside and we just waited until the capture timer was up. Then moved on. I really want to like this game but I've been having trouble finding interesting fights to engage in.

[QUOTE=evilweazel;45314138]Your first and only five minutes of tanking must have gone pretty bad if you'd actually say something like this[/QUOTE] I mean, if you want to ignore the fact the Vangaurd is the worst performing MBT, okay.

[QUOTE=Swilly;45318217]I mean, if you want to ignore the fact the Vangaurd is the worst performing MBT, okay.[/QUOTE] idk, when ever I play my NC alt, I always do insanely well in a vanguard. how is it the worst performing mbt?

[QUOTE=Swilly;45318217]I mean, if you want to ignore the fact the Vangaurd is the worst performing MBT, okay.[/QUOTE] Would I prefer a Magrider? Sure, but to say the Vanny is the worst when the Prowler is still in-game is laughable. I mostly play NC with a bit of TR and must say the Prowler has a role (namely shelling the ever living fuck out of things) and it does that role very well.. but Vanguards are more versatile overall and I'd much rather have that instead. And honestly stop comparing the Prowler to the Vanguard, compare it to the Magrider and you see it is quite awful. A Vanguard can win that fight, but a Prowler? lol good luck

The Prowler is going to benefit the most from the stabilized turrets and increased reverse speeds. Now its high top speed will have an actual use besides getting to a camping spot faster.
