*** Official Planetside 2 Thread ***

Does anyone have any suggestions for good graphics/ini tweaks to improve performance. I've got a 7950 but paired with a measly Q6600 which is really struggling at 2560x1600.

Was playable previously but since the last round of updates I've got pretty nasty framerate issues, makes playing infantry almost impossible.

Try pasting this into your useroptions.ini file. A dude on this forum made this config, his name is Wolvers and it really runs great with it, while looking good.

Haven't played Since February! What have I missed content wise?

Lattice on Indar (directs battles a bit more).
Alerts (events for say capture all of a continent or every bio lab that award XP based on the % your faction achieved.) Last 2 hours and come up every so often.
Harassers - 3 man buggy with a gunner seat and rumble seat which a Max can use.
Empire specific rocket launchers - Striker, Phoenix, Lancer
New Max Abilities
Cloakable flashes for Infils.
Lots of new guns, helmets etc.
Loads of UI improvements.
Performance improvements (believe it or not).
Loads of balance tweaks.

Off the top of my head... it's free, definitely worth checking it out again :)

How do you buy SC through the US site? My account was made on the EU website and I can't seem to see any deal when trying to buy SC on the Pro7 website :(.
 
Double XP was live at lunch when i logged on to get my dailys, its on till sunday the post says.

Pro7 suck, SOE may have given my CCard details to have the internet enabled world but I feel for the guys who have invested time on a Pro7 account, they miss out on all the small things.

My outfit are complaining that 40% off is just not good enough whys it not double like before. FFS since when was the 4th of July a reason for a sale in the UK anyway.
 
Yep. I don't think there's anything to stop you doing it, and SOE tend to have more frequent deals on stuff than prosieben. If you've already got a high level toon you'll have to start over mind you.
 
I'll probably end up spending it all on camo again. Ah well, if you're going to get run over, shot, stabbed and exploderated, might as well do it in style :)
 
you have a SOE account if you either:
A) already had one cause you were in beta or PS1
B) started playing through Steam

If you did it from the website you get shuffled off to Pro7

all accounts play on the same servers
 
You need to switch client though for the game, (i think you can just change the logon servers in the ini/cfg for launchpad though and save you redownloading the whole game)
I know you can switch the SOE one to Pro7, google it.
