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

I'm done wasting my time with C4 until they fix the stupidly unrealistic and pointless delay on the detonation. If i can, for whatever reason, get close enough to your tank, sundy, harasser, or zerg group of teammates to throw down C4, LET ME FUCKING DETONATE IT. They deserve to get blown to shit. Don't give them a second chance by making me wait 5+ fucking seconds to detonate any C4 i've thrown down, it's pointless and unbalanced as shit. When i spend several minutes sneaking around behind enemy lines just to place my C4 on a major sundy, run around a rock and smash the detonation button [b]and have nothing happen[/b] and then get killed, that's fucking stupid. Like i said, if i can get there in the first place then they deserve to fucking die. Why the SHIT do they make something so essential as C4 be basically useless in any high-population combat areas. The only time it's of any use is if an unguarded sundy (and therefore useless sundy in the first place) is sitting behind a rock, then you can have the ~10 seconds it takes to place down 2 C4 and actually detonate the fucking things. I can't tell you how many fucking times i've had C4 placed on groups of 15+ guys because i snuck up behind them, and have one lucky guy turn around in the massive gap between me placing it and being able to detonate it and then get shot. Absolutely pointless

[QUOTE=Pandamox;40588853]Why the SHIT do they make something so essential as C4 be basically useless in any high-population combat areas.[/QUOTE]So that people don't use it as a suicide bomb like you seem to be doing and actually have a chance to stop you And there's like a 1 second delay not 5 like you seem to believe

The delay is pretty hefty. As it stands it sort of makes sense to do huge damage to vehicles, since they're disposable pieces of junk. If they become harder to bring to a fight, I think instagibbing'd be a little silly. Their effectiveness against infantry and vehicles all at once, however, I do not agree with. It's too many options for one person to have all at once to choose from in a game like this.

But expecting to throw it into a large swarm of enemies like an action movie, killing everything, is not the right way to use it.

[QUOTE=Trainbike;40584114]He's doing shemagh concepts for all factions by the sounds of it. TR and VS shemaghs make [I]even less[/I] sense.[/QUOTE] [quote="@mbroome1"]Yeah I'm working on that one too, the VS is cool like a ninja Shemagh with a hood.[/quote]

the TR capped indar on helios it finally happened these are the end times

[QUOTE=ajrhug;40591200]the TR capped indar on helios it finally happened these are the end times[/QUOTE] dont worry to much about the end times. the Chinese will be on later to clean up the red mess they left all over indar.

VS just won an alert on Esamir on Matherson by 2%. Felt so good to rub the Terran's smug faces in it.

[QUOTE=dracotonisamond;40591367]dont worry to much about the end times. the Chinese will be on later to clean up the red mess they left all over indar.[/QUOTE] I really want this Connery/Helios merge to hurry up and happen, if only to see the Chinese Connery TR clash with the Chinese Helios NC.

[QUOTE=Framperton;40586956]To be honest, this was something people were asking for for a very, very long time.[/QUOTE] To make the hat look as dumb as it can get? Last time I checked people asked for something like this [img]http://i48.fastpic.ru/big/2013/0508/4d/b4ba0e37a2ea82e8dcac390b253ac04d.jpg[/img] and not donald duck hat.

I agree that it's not as dark and gritty as it should be, and those goggles looks kinda odd. But I still think it's a good hat.

Why does everything look so glossy in this game.

[QUOTE=zombojoe;40591845]Why does everything look so glossy in this game.[/QUOTE] Turn off ambient occlusion.

I play with it off tho, occlusion makes everything darker.

[QUOTE=jiggu;40591568]I agree that it's not as dark and gritty as it should be, and those goggles looks kinda odd. But I still think it's a good hat.[/QUOTE] To hell with dark and gritty, why is it so comically tall? Like a parody.

Anyone getting weird glitches with changing continent terminals? it's like i've angered the gods of graphics. (black squares, white outside)

If the NC will get a shemagh i would only wear it on my infiltrator if i could have some kind of cloak/cape ontop of my armor, otherwise it would only look stupid.

For anyone who hasn't seen this; this seems to be the new thing they are flashing for a split second on the command center: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/9obDzEq.jpg[/IMG] At first glance I thought it was some fucking badass new NS SMG or AR, but upon closer inspection it appears to be an NS crossbow. That's kind of weird imo. I'm not opposed to it, but all things considered it seems like this addition would be more redundant than different to the ES crossbows. Unless the ES ones got scrapped and they are using this one instead.

it looks much better than that goofy TR one we saw. still a silly concept.

Also, they said they have the NS shotgun assets but are 'currently happy with the spread of shotguns we have right now' :(

The VS and NC ones don't look very open face to me.

[QUOTE=BlackRainbow;40594205]The VS and NC ones don't look very open face to me.[/QUOTE] I think the TR one only shows the lower face like in the concept art: [t]http://i.imgur.com/eMoX0nc.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/TkU4lqP.jpg[/t]

Especially the TR one. Def equipping that only LA when it comes out.

If I had have known the next set was coming so soon I wouldn't have bothered with the NC Nightstriker.

Are you sure they're all class? I thought they were MAX helmets. [editline] edit [/editline] Nice going, facepunch.
