so the directive gets you a banner..
yeah I won't be logging in for this "event"

Except for ESF A2G faggotry and TRshit, the game is just really fun

>halloween event
>new cashboxes
>fixes
That's it? Guys, I'm thinking the game's in ICU now and it's not gonna get better. Devs didn't even come forward and told us what's happening with the game's future and roadmap was made when Werl was still the main lead.
It's sad to see it coming down

>last year we got an event camo and new tank cannons, oshur and esamir map updates AND new construction graphics
>this year we get a line of text and a reskin of a gun we already got for free

Dead game, merge servers

>Fixed a bug that allowed you to revive through walls with the Revive tool.
Fucking hope so, also nothing rly new Haunted Bastion should stay as 'normal' alert

i was hoping the alchemist bundle came back this year....

>the banner and title and shit
pretty meh but at least its generous with the base currencies. ill play for the loot box i guess

Call me an idiot but I would have gone for a very asymmetric faction design for PS2. Or, if I were a design lead for PS3, I would do it then.

I'd be down for that change. Tribes didn't need headshots.

>>1064860
Tribes is an entirely different type of game, wtf are you smoking?

>>1064867
I main LA so its not too different for me.

Did NC shit in Connery Vanus cereal or something? It seems personal. Every single day is the same thing for months now.

>>1064872
I do too but I feel like LA would be super gimped without being able to kill people quickly with headshots and high ground. It would also crush the skill gap even further and make it so overpop zerglings would win even more.

>redeploys instead of reloading because the combined reload time would be 14 seconds

Does resist shield stack with safeguard? I'm thinking of running pump shotgun heavy with scavenger 5 and safeguard 5 and just repeatedly blasting people in the face when i get rez grenaded.

>>1072615
Honestly im not sure if damage reductions stack at all. If you have Carapace you should run that because you get more HP back on res than you do shield so you can tank a bit more.

>>1072615
I dont think so, but the extra health on revive would be pretty sweet

>>1071951
Run the TMG-50, it reloads really quickly and its got a good four or five kills in the mag

if you still play connery even after we told you all to leave you should just troon out already

Yeah I can not believe the amount of bitch tears on reddit because they can't abuse a bug to keep people immortal at no risk. Some of them don't even play the game, saying stupid shit like "you can't move or look around while tethered".

>>1078584
No they were right about the looking around thing, it was a bug that you had to actually face the target and if an ally ran through your beam it broke it. It's been fixed though.

>>1078586
Yeah but they don't know that because they haven't played it in live yet.

>>1078247
Significant base redesigns. Vehicles should support capture of a base not create zones of death between the spawn and cap. Think PlanetSide 1 where a base could lose its courtyard but you have to get out of your vehicle to continue the assault. Basically, build up everything to support your infantry combat. Why? Because most people are too lazy to learn anything else but those lazy ones will be the bulk of your players.

>>1082201
This is a lie, TR only pulls vehicles when there's nobody around to shoot.

Sounds like a VS got pissy his team wasn't able to curbstomp for a single alert.

>>1082201
Amateur hour, just rock up with your overtuned mattocks and vang shield and jgx
>im vanu
If you were really vanu you'd know how much worse fighting NC armour is. Wrel's ghost expects us to counterpull anti-armour maxes which noone is going to do because nc pay 400 nanites for 40 kills and we're expected to pay 400 nanites for the privilage of sending them back to the sunderer for 20s

>>1082541

>>1082541

Vanguards aren't on the faction that will pull a dozen MBTs and retard gas at every opportunity, so even if you were right which you aren't, your argument is cope

>>1082348
>>1082247
>hurr durr we TRash only pull vehicles to force fights to happen durrr

>>1082550
If you cant reliably get side or back shots then sure, run AP. You still have 80% damage resistance so you'll still bulldoze any equivalent tank in a head to head fight

>>1083504
So... you're mad that you have all the tools nesessary to win but are too stupid to use them? Ngl senpai i dont sympathise

Any big news for Planetside? Have not played it since this summer.

Honestly this makes me the most mad.

Like if we just get outplayed or outpopped or if we just can't break through the 20 lashers on the choke, shikataganai. But when TR is just sitting in their prowlers doing nothing watching the base get capped holy fuck i want to c4 them all.

Werl's dead and there's been no significant news since except a few botched implants. Currently the game seems to be on life support and is just ticking over with seasonal events and new amazon prime skins. Allegedly theres "big news coming" thats supposed to drop after outfit wars, but they've been saying that for five months now

Oh also we're doing outfit wars

>>1084312
You should, moments like that are why C4 was born

>>1084606
Your tank has more health and does more effective damage, literally all you have to do is press w+m1+f. If that's too much for you then what do you want me to do about it? Give NC aim assist? Do you need a "tell me a story" difficulty setting?

whats the best way to use the Maw, I'm clearly doing something wrong
I hope the answer isn't
>don't

>>1085403
Have you ever used the Anchor? It's basically the Anchor but with shorter burst fire (by like, 1.5 rounds average difference over distances) but slightly faster reset between bursts. IMO that's a negative tradeoff (also slower weapon swap, reload, and lack of silencer loadout) but if the Anchor is #2 LMG in the game those are a very minor downgrade from the Anchor makes the Maw a very good weapon considering what alternatives the VS actually have. The Anchor, Maw, etc. are really good LMGs to learn that skill curve on how to maximize LMG performance like those 30,000 hour HA tryhards.

>>1085548
I am so new (returning) that I understood about half of this.
So keep bursting? Should I bother with Angled Grip over Laser Sight? Thanks.

>>1085619
Not a problem. Most players don't know. Even if players thought they knew, the march 2022 arsenal update actually changed attachment meta more than most people realize and it's very poorly documented.
for bursting:
https://youtu.be/dEZ5carMnlk?t=127
Just 30 seconds will improve 50% of planetmen aim 50% or more!

Use 1x sight, compensator + forward grip + soft point ammunition. It's too long winded to explain the science, just trust me

>>1085619
Only laser sight a gun thats already good at hipfiring AND that you expect to hipfire regularly

>>1085682
>>1086188
This helped a lot, thanks

>>1083587
AP has such a higher skill ceiling than the jgx its ridiculous. JGX is only viable in the cqc run up to every tank you see and just press f to win mindset. Any kind of skill shot like a long distant one on a moving target or shooting down air requires AP.

All i'm hearing is a lot of cope from people unable to lead slow shots.

I miss tribes

A 2 man Magrider has a theoretical 7 seconds to kill a Prowler and a Prowler has a theoretical 6 seconds TTK on a Magrider. That's assuming the Prowler is using AP not a Kingsnake the Kingsnake brings it down to 5 seconds. A 1 man Magrider and a Lightning have the same TTK on a Prowler. Two Lightnings can down a Prowler in 5.5 seconds and it be on a coinflip if one of the Lightnings is lost in the exchange.

Conclusion: Vanguards are OP, and VS should just pull Lightnings every time.

most important thing is have properly coded servers with no lag. game shouldnt grind to a halt when 200 players are in the same area. make it so you can have 1000 vs 1000 battles with no lag, lure some streamerbait in and you have game of the decade

Is it true they added some kind of water combat?
I'm genuinely confused

>>1099448
Yeah an entire planet dedicated to it, and most people avoid the water combat because they don't want to equip the specific underwater guns that are better underwater because it messes with their 80000 hour trained muscle memory and their soft aimbots don't function with old guns. Its why I miraculously go 20:1 kdr while underwater against sweatfits who would normally destroy me on ground.

>>1099465
fuck underwater combat sounds neat

>>1099465
i never thought of it this way

>>1099489
Just wait until you actually engage in it and realize it's not good. In fact, you're not swimming or anything, you're moving exactly as you would on land, but slower.

>>1099465
underwater combat is unironically fucking awesome and it's tragic people ignore it because metaslaves, statpadders and sweatfits cant do epic point holds against br 20s down there and also at least a third the remaining playerbase is that exact demographic of infantry mains which kinda blows and is probably part of the reason player retention is low
I never play heavy assault on lad but underwater i default to it cuz the fucking uhhh diver jet thing they can equip makes it way more bearable to play with the extra movement speed
pic related is my water nigga, wish i could use him more and logged in for the first time since september to take a screenshot of

every class can equip that diver jet thing

it's crazy how this games population can be split into "people who metaslave and stat pad" and "people who play as off meta as possible in spite of metaslaves even if their stats suffer for it" with zero (0) in-between

>>1100189
Well yeah you're either a heavy main or you play the other 75% of the game.

>>1098594
New shooters are terrible, where else would I go?

>>1100105
Pretty sweet, but have you considered LA gliding along the surface and dropping directly on top of your enemies with a shotgun? Or an engineer on land volleying mana missiles?

>>1099465
you bring up the positives but forget the major negative which is that the person who has to actually go anywhere in underwater combat is a helpless target and it's nearly impossible to remove an attacker's spawn

if it was actually swimming and the firearms were even more handicapped/harpoon battles sure but it's not any of that

>>1100511
>the person who has to actually go anywhere in underwater combat is a helpless target
play light assault
>nearly impossible to remove an attacker's spawn
play light assault or a2g


not my fault you're a low IQ heavy main

>>1100513
I know you haven't actually done it. Trying to fire while on the move underwater, even while jetpacking as a LA, with any weapon, is so terrible you have to be outrageously lucky to get the kill.

A2G weapons can't reach into the depths, and a c4 durability sundy takes 4x c4, so assuming you can even safely, expensively, deliver c4 without getting shredded for not being entrenched, you have to do it twice.

>>1100580
>A2G weapons can't reach into the depths
They can
>and a c4 durability sundy takes 4x c4
And they can't be repaired
>without getting shredded for not being entrenched
Drop down from above, you know, like a light assault
>you have to do it twice.
Soften it up with a2g, bail on approach, c4, AV knife the rest of it down

hell most of the time you can just sit on top of it and av knife the entire health bar down because nobody looks up

Dipshit friendless boomer gets pissy that two retarded infiltrators(my friend and I) managed to wipe out his OSU base in five minutes with cortium bombs.

Continued, we weren't even doing anything particularly trollish, just knocking an orbital base out of commission. Dude spent the next half hour sending me tells about how good he is just cuz he managed to machine gun me once while planting a bomb.

>>1100620
>>1100623
Why even argue or get upset about this
It's plain that was basically his only kill that entire night, just let him think he pulled an epic gamer move and feel better about it and tell his friends how cool he is at the game

>>1100643
Cuz the spectacle of watching a 40 year old man cry about losing his digital sand castle to a couple of bored idiots is funny.

i only see one person crying and it's the one posting in the thread

skill issue

>>1101342
lol

>>1101342
Sad that the perception of hitreg is what always filters the newfags. I thought it was shit too at first until I realized it was a me issue and not the game, but boy howdy does this game have some fucking clientside moments.

yeah hitreg is fine it's personal player latency + clientside hit detection that is usually the bullshit culprit
the ultimate newfag filter is "everyone is hacking and also paying to win but me"
the majority of "cheating" that happens in this game is more comparable to clever exploitation of game mechanics and a deep, almost esoteric understanding of the flow of battle you simply do not will not and can not learn for at least the first 500 hours of play time
do some players use ahk scripts to control recoil and turn semi/burst weapons full auto? yes. do some players have aim locks and no clip? yes. but those are a very very tiny majority compared to players who just play a lot that get hackusationed daily.
both "le pay to win" and "le haxxors" are learned behavior too, players dont necessarily come up with it themselves but rather are parroting what they saw somebody else say
unfortunately this is not a problem the game devs can fix, even if the anticheat was perfect and all weapons had the price tag removed both pay to win accusations and hackusations would remain
even if new players get past the p2w/hax mind goblin the point >>1100105 made about a significant amount of remaining players being as good as they are ruins the new player experience made me think on it and they might be is spot on. there is LITERALLY nothing that can be done to fix this also which is lol

>>1101558
>and also paying to win
It's amazing how they refuse to listen to "you can buy any gun in the game in the first 30 minutes of play, even the gun you think is p2w"

the only thing sorta p2w is the fucking nanite regen boost you get from premium that also stack with the paid boosters, though it makes me smile knowing some MBT main is literally paying money to eat my C4 bricks for free

Make Sunderers overpowered and meta defining

>>1101770
I dunno man
I'm more terrified of 4 rep battlebusses coming over the hill than 4 MBTs

>>1101783
Make parked* Sunderers overpowered and meta defining
Sundies should be the definitive way to spawn, not beacons, not routers. Make them indestructible if that's what it takes.

>>1101786
Tell heavies to do their job with the rocket launcher their class was given and shoot at lightnings that get pulled.

>>1101789
I was asked how to save the game
Telling other players to babysit a vehicle is not how I save the game. They won't do it

>>1101798
Okay okay I got it
Remove heavy overshield so they go back to being rocket bitches dealing with vehicles like their entire kit suggests.

haven't played in seven months. uninstalled three months ago. no desire to come back, but for some reason i still have an overwhelming melancholy leftover. i loved planetside 1 so much... 2 could have been so good. i wish they didn't fuck it up so bad. i miss the good old days of ut99, 2k, mechwarrior, tribes... cyssorside, forseral and searhus fights, ishundar and solsar, that huge fucking ravine on ceryshen that would occasionally cause huge bridge fights, surgile, snipers being literal shit tier, thumpers and lashers causing stalemates every day... oh well. guess it had to end someday.

Im not quite sure how you got this from my post but ok

>>1101807
>Remove heavy overshield
this will not result in sweaty heavy mains actually using their rockets on tanks, this will result in sweaty heavy mains dropping heavy for medic and no longer having any rocket launcher at all

>>1101558
This post >>1085682 changed my life regarding LMG usage, I'll never forget logging in afterwards and immediately getting a 5 kill streak against NC so it doesn't really count after previously struggling to do anything with them

>>1101558
>those are a very very tiny majority
Yeah, about half of all players sounds about right

>>1085619
On most guns I don't like angled grip, the horizontal recoil is more harmful than the first shot recoil reduction, especially compared to forward grip. Just learn where the first shot recoil takes you and adjust from there.

>>1085682
>even this guy can't chain headshot with the msr-w at 50m

Man I just keep getting more and more vindicated that that one guy was aimbotting.

>>1102933
Angled makes most TR guns actually unsuable, otherwise it just makes NC and VS guns behave similar to TR guns normally.
Theres a handful of guns where angled is actually busted specifically TR's SABR-13, and NC's default AR and its aurax benefit from it nicely. Vanquisher would be the strongest gun in the game if it had angled. SAW and GODSAW were better with it before the min damage got nerfed so now it's kind of pointless to snipe with it.

>>1102966
Yeah it seemed pretty decent on the saw but i always just aimed at feet/chest and let the first shot recoil take me to the head naturally since it goes straight up.

I did experiment with it on NC's burst weapons and it seems pretty decent there but the burst is already so tight i'm not sure how much it actually helps.

>>1102967
Its not really much a gain on the gauss burst they already have incredibly low first shot recoil except the vanquisher, but vanquisher is strong as fuck anyway.

>no new prime drop this month
bros...

blackpill

>>1103519
still true though. and then in a month you say "remove medic's heal ability so medic players play the class correctly and revive people instead of being selfish killfarmers" and then the same sweats just drop medic for the next best 1v1 class and still do not revive you or kill tanks

>>1103643
The actual issue is Carapace thoughever

>>1103760
sorry my bad, lemme correct myself then:
you say "remove carapace so medic players play the class correctly and revive people instead of being selfish killfarmers" and then the same sweats just drop medic for the next best 1v1 class and still do not revive you or kill tanks

mfw this VS shitter has to toggle on his aimbot after getting shat on repeatedly but he still cant autowin duels against pistols

How many years do you think this game will last?

>>1106261
2024 will be its last year if theres no planned content, and even then its going to lose a large chunk of population after outfit wars.

>all the sweaty shitters are on NC practicing blowing up sunderers
man this game's community is dogshit

>>1106327
Always funny when they roll through and kill every possible fight at off hours and then whine the loudest in shout when you return the favor.

>>1106978
>you return the favor.
>sweats pulling a bus ever
All ill say is thank wrel for av mines. After two or three pops they usually get the message

>>1107078
I dont know how you manage to get natural AV mine kills without putting it right in front of the vehicle pad, everybody shoots the ones i place.
I just use them as extra-strength C4 for stubborn parked busses

>>1107081
Put them right on top of the vehicle pad, sweats pull from the msp menu they'll never see it. Its also fairly easy when you know where your sunderer is parked because they'll take the road there at full speed so you hide mines on depressions or around tight corners. Nothing's garuanteed but it works most of the time

>>1107084
Yeah road mines is what I meant, they always get seen and shot no matter how clever I thought I was. The most clever thing i've done is find someone else's minefield and place my own right on top of theirs so it blended in and that's been getting me a lot of kills + extra EXP for blowing up their mines

>>1107089
Use the caltrops with them too if you have the time

i arx'd them a couple years ago by placing them on enemy watch tower resupply pads near the front line but a hex or two back, they nuke aircraft when they land for more ammo, usually ground pounding esfs but the occasional lib as well
i dont have the game installed so i cant show exactly where but about where the blue dots i drew on this image is where MOST aircraft will land, or at least glide over low enough to detonate them and they are a lot harder to spot from the sky then you'd think

>>1109522
worth noting: it was completely passive, driving a turbo flash out with mine carrier engi to drop my load up there then going somewhere else to play LA or something until i get a kill, then going out to lay more. rinse and repeat

I stopped playing this when I realized that cartels could just drop nukes on the map.

>>1105287
>wtf i can hit people in casual garbage game but not game where i have to actually aim

>>1105287
>nobody magically kills me through walls or kills me in three shots after tanking over a dozen hitmarkers
clientside + skill issue

>>1109528
the real issue is it is not limited to cartels and they are very easy to obtain in solo outfits

Am I the only one that likes orbitals?
I think its fun when I have to scurry inside because the sky is detonating. My only complaint is the massive knockback even when you're indoors + far away from the rendered circle. Whole thing needs to be like 75% weaker in force (but still lethal if you're outside)

I guess it makes MAX mains seethe but that's even better imo.

>>1109962
no i agree and think they are great off rule of cool alone but motherfuckers have been trying to make planetside an mlp esport since day 2 and orbital strikes are literally as antithetical to that as possible so the tears will never stop flowing
t. solofit gamer with 500 armory os strikes

>>1110027
One day I want to multibox like 6 accounts and build up an orbital on each one in a solo outfit and just drop on a random 96v96 and unzip all 6 orbitals simultaneously to end the fight instantly.

>>1110033
an outfit can have two ready to go back to back, dont need to multi box and with 6 characters you can log out/in 6 times in a row to dump 12
most ive done is 7 back to back across a few alts

>>1110038
No I mean literally simultaneously. I want them all to go off at once so theres no survivors. Even the people inside get crunched by all the massive knockback damage.

>>1110051
fuck it do it the game is dying anyway

>>1109528
i can nuke without outfit

>>1109962
I like them because you get funny interactions like anchoring your max/prowler to avoid the yeet

So why did everyone leave Connery?

>>1112070
there was server troubles for awhile and people left
people leaving made more people leave
repeat

>>1112070
there's a concerted effort by the usual connery suspects, you know who, to kill the server. in discord right now they coordinate sundy killing to force the last few remaining people to leave so daybreak will merge emerald and connery.
