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

Looking at the new Vulcan stats, I feel like TR is just going to be more and more the AA faction. Anybody tried it against air? I'm interested in seeing if it's good.

[QUOTE=kukiric;41119534]Vehicle NV is terrible now because it pretty much makes everything mono-chromatic without changing the contrast or lighting at all. It's still the same image, just you literally can't see any colors and there's a retina-burning green filter on top.[/QUOTE] Yeah that's a problem. I was kind of hoping they'd make it actually NV, but it really isnt. It's just a green screen filter, that for some weird reason works during the day as well.

Well, its official, bye bye BCP.

[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;41117106]I never realized how terribly optimized Planetside 2 is until I can't even run it on an AMD 7970ghz. Gotta love it.[/QUOTE]I run it at a steady 30 fps on low settings on my 6770.

Something I can't seem to wrap my head around: Why was the nerf of the NV scope necessary, and why did they make it so not only does the vision buzzes in, but there's a delay when raising the scope to your eye? For some guns, that completely defeats the quick drawing capabilities that you need to bank on to properly use. I've already thrown it away and used a X1 scope for my GR22, but until then it was one of my more preferred scopes.

I still use it.

I still use it.[/QUOTE] To the first point, everyone used it because it was a direct T of a scope. It wasn't a red dot, which was nice. There was no real change from that scope to the X1. The only plus you could probably pin to it was that you could see the Vanu at night, since SOE had decided it was a wise idea to make them 90% black, and 10% purple. To the second point, I don't think you could call it 'balanced' if it removes all points of infantry fighting. I'd rather have the first few seconds of dull vision before fullbright white and black, rather than a slow draw to the scope and powerup, because I'd like to aim down my gun and pull the trigger in a pinch.

[QUOTE=paindoc;41119204]Well I applied for Devil Dogs and got partially accepted, but I now have to sit in the teamspeak channel and wait for a commander to talk to me since I'm under 18.

[QUOTE=Jimesu_Evil;41121660] wait what what happened I MUST KNOW did he finally have a stroke oh god I knew it[/QUOTE] Probably nothing. Doubt he will ever leave. Also, I really love the adjustments to player movement. I can now rely on my weapon to have sort of consistency.

[QUOTE=Framperton;41121858]Probably nothing. Doubt he will ever leave. Also, I really love the adjustments to player movement.

Long story short - he rambled on about it on his stream about how everything in the game sucks. He also complained about the lack of metagame, which might have been a valid complaint if he hadn't also said that he plans to move to Battlefield 4 for a while. All in all it wasn't much different to one of his usual hissy-fits, only with considerably less use of the word "faggot". Speaking of which, Higby replied to the reddit post about it. He still didn't have the sack to say "good riddance" even after Buzz repeatedly called him (and the rest of the devs) faggots in the past and instead he praised TE. Higby's pretty alright, but when it comes to Buzz he really comes off as a massive tool.

[QUOTE=Naaz;41116412]You can borrow some of Mattherson's VS.[/QUOTE] Thanks, but we have too many VS too.

Please ban all 1/12 Sunderer drivers, people who lock vehicles with an empty seat, tank gunners who fire at a far away AA turret instead of the enemy tank right next to us, medics who try to revive while under heavy fire, and that TR guy on Briggs called HOWSMYDRIVING who always manages to crash into and destroy my ESF.

Shit, I'm gonna put that in the suggestion forums.

Now if I could lock the guns but leave passenger seats open, I'd let people in.

It woul dbe nice if you could lock for squad gunners.

I join them pretty much daily when I don't care about what's going on and I just want to shoot some VS with people covering my back, and maybe trash talk over /yell a little. [SUP][SUB][SUB][SUP]because mattherson is trashtalkside 2[/SUP][/SUB][/SUB][/SUP]

I play with the BWC, the best TR outfit on Matherson. I don't think much will change. Buzz and his croons will leave leaving the rest of the TE players to find new outfits to join. IF anything does change I will hate to see the TR become even more unbalanced and the VS grow even larger(Worst case scenario)

I for one won't miss the TE. I might have respected them if it weren't for their ego-inflated leaders, their poor treatment of their members, the kicking of a thousand members or so to try and stat-pad past Goon Squad and their general toxic response to the entire community and its developers. But that isn't the case. At least BWC and AOD are still going strong. Most of their members aren't rotten to the core and fun to play against as NC.

We hardly ever fight the NC cause the VS are the biggest threat.

[QUOTE=Monkeytracks;41123019]Amerish and Esamir Lattice [/QUOTE] Sorry bub, Higby already pointed out that those are incorrect and are actually displaying every possible link that their lattices could have which is why every base is connected to every base around it. Their actual lattice links wont be nearly as dense.

Actually I was wrong. And the guy above me said it anyways.

Holy shit these camo bundles are really really cheap. They're 2000 SC (each) but it'd cost 61500 to buy everything individually. [editline]21st June 2013[/editline] I mean, I still ain't in a hurry to shell out that much for camo but that's actually a really good offer considering the costs.

decided to pull my -actual- AI max rather than just using fractures for once. Shittiest fucking TR max weapons but still managed to have some fun in a single life. [IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3655158/maxfun.png[/IMG]

So in essence his own retarded plan backfired and he ended up frustrating himself into ragequitting. Also, yeah I agree with you on Higby. In the beginning when people were telling that a racist, bigoted, abusive scumbag was one of the most prominent streamers on Twitch for PS2, Higby really didn't say much. Now I know, 'hurr durr it's the ntrnet dun take things so serius' and that it would be an impossible/useless task to stop everyone from saying/drawing/writing racist things. However, when one of the most watched members of your community is the scum of the earth you need to put your foot down, grow some balls and purge their presence from the community. And [B]MOTHER FUCKER[/B] the infiltrator update just got pushed back to August.
