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

Placed a Spitfire at the landing of a biolab jumpad and went to stand next to it with a shotgun on the other side of the pad. Everybody who landed was so pre-occupied with the turret, that around 10 in a row did not even notice me shotgunning them in the back. Fun little thingy. Just needs to be made beefier.
hm, the daily deals can only be bought ingame, right? I need to update my laptop's ps2 with a 9 gig patch but our internet is capped far beneath that, and I want today's deal
[B]Fuck yes !!!!!![/B] [img]http://puu.sh/dGzgW/82269d01d4.jpg[/img] Turns out not only does the tier 4 give you more health per second but it actually costs less energy per second to run so there is no down side to using it over a lower tier whereas normally the higher you go the more energy cost it is.
Getting back to the game what items would you guys suggest I should buy with $$$ for the infiltrator class?

I've been wanting to get that one as well
[QUOTE=scratch (nl);46779029]how much does it regen and use? I've been wanting to get that one as well[/QUOTE] Gives 7% health per second with an energy cost of 0.75 per second. The health it gives may only be 1% more than tier 3 but the .25 reduction in energy cost per second adds up when you are using it 100% of the time.
that reduction is pretty sweet yeah. I assume you need 5 tier 3's to get a random tier 4? The big geniuses they are they didn't update the in-game help page for implants with the new shit
You are saving 15 energy per minute meaning you will be saving 900 energy per hour. [editline]23rd December 2014[/editline] My merge!!!

The first tier 4 implant I got was a range finder but I got lucky on the second and got the regeneration.
[QUOTE=Kogyaru;46778621]Getting back to the game what items would you guys suggest I should buy with $$$ for the infiltrator class?[/QUOTE] Nothing, unless you want cosmetic items. It really isn't necessary nor worth it to buy things with SC that you could instead get with certs, the possible exception being NS weapons since they're unlocked for every faction when you buy them with SC. That said though if you're absolutely set on buying something I'd go with an SMG since they add a lot of versatility to infiltrators and can be used by other classes too. [editline]23rd December 2014[/editline] However, you might want to hold off though since it's likely that infantry weapons will be going on sale for half price soon due to the holiday sales that are currently going.
So does the type of implants you receive in a supply drop depend on what ones you already own? I'm confused over the drop system
[QUOTE=Kebab;46779544]So does the type of implants you receive in a supply drop depend on what ones you already own? I'm confused over the drop system[/QUOTE] Its randomized. The only real "control" is that the drop is apparently decided by the tick of the XP you receive. So larger XP ticks supposedly give better drops and vice versa.

It really bothers me that I never bothered to auraxium my carbines I only ever did it for the Trac 5-AMC as it was the one I loved at the time. I basically never used the others so I now have to get 4 auraxiums on carbines before I can have the directive gun. It can have 2 rail attachments or something like that and might come in handy.
If you really like one gun then you don't need to get the special auraxium versions. You'll not use them, because you already use the gun you like!
I don't use the Trac 5-AMC that much anymore what I am saying is I used to and now I would be more than happy to use the auraxium version of the Trac 5 but I never bothered to auraxium my other carbines so I have to work for it. Had I of known ahead of time I would of already done so with my carbines.

Anyone else on Emerald been having [I]huge[/I] lag spikes the past couple of days? I know other servers have been having problems with lag and stuff but I haven't seen anything said about Emerald.
Yup, pretty laggy at times.
How laggy are we talking? I've been getting between 250-400ms nearly constantly and then occasionally I've been getting spikes of up to 1500ms. Is that similar to you? Call me lucky, but I've never really had problems with lag in PS2.
I've seen people warp around about a second's worth of distance. I've also had issues with bullets not working when I fire them close to dying. So, I'll shoot, but I'm already dead I guess and even though I fire the shot does nothing.
I am having these problems as well now this is only started happening today. I am getting an average of 7k ms - 16k ms and it has obviously made the game completely unplayable.

Call me lucky, but I've never really had problems with lag in PS2.[/QUOTE] I've got the same thing, about 250 ms on average. A week or two ago it always was around 100ms so you have to wonder what's causing this. Perhaps more people are playing because of the vacation? [editline]29th December 2014[/editline] also, is it me or did they nuke the rate at which implants are gained? I'm barely getting any as of late. It's going to take days before I can even craft some tier 4 implants.

Good to know its not just me though because I was wracking my brain trying to figure out what was causing it. When I asked in game all I got was some dipshit saying "hurr ur computer sux". [editline]28th December 2014[/editline] And yeah I think I remember reading that implant drop rates were lowered a bit.
Yeah implants are gained much slower now that is why I am happy I got lucky on getting the implant I wanted on the second try. Problem is now I doubt I will be able to get enough together to make even 1 tier 5 before they make it possible to make them.
Jesus, this game's community got 10x shittier over the course of a month. r/planetside is full of nothing but "Game is dead, shit game, P2W, shit devs, quitting PS2 forever" threads. Vanu Labs has quit, that Zoran guy has quit and a couple of others I think. That place isn't much better than Forumside now.

Because of the 7k-16k ms making the game unplayable for me I decided to take a break and play Heroes and generals instead. Things will probably just stay the same though.

Worst thing is I find myself agreeing with them on most of their complaints. I haven't touched the game in 3 months, not even to claim my monthly membership SC because I'm still waiting on that continental lattice. The only thing keeping me close to the community was Player Studio, but now that T-Ray's gone that part of the community is more or less dead. Bill is practically inactive on the forums. Granted he is working pretty hard making some positive changes to the aesthetic of the game itself, but it doesn't take much to drop by the forums once every few days and give feedback to artists. Even more worse is now BCP is probably going to come out of his pedo dungeon and start yelling "I WAS RIGHT YOU FAGGOTS! I WAS RIGHT AAAALLLL ALOOOOOONNNNGGG!"
