*** Official Planetside 2 Thread ***

I updated the drivers yesterday It tends to be redeploying back to a warpgate or doing a drop pod. After that its about an hor of gameplay then it crasges to desktop.

Got windows to check what the problem isand its tht crash people are on about. But i cant seem to get past it lol
 
I've not had a problem getting into battles, it's easy to identify the hot spots when you're at deployment. Drop in near the front and leg it over, or quite often folk have dropped the Marauder (I think?) so you can spawn right at the battle front.

Had a good laugh last night, spent some time in the fixed defence turrets holding off waves of enemy vehicles then jumped into a 2 man tank and had great success on the AA gun. Driver was pretty good, kept heading back and waiting for me to stock up on ammo then back into battle.

Definitely more fun when you've got people working alongside you, I spent the first 30mins or so running around on my own and thought it wasn't very enjoyable before I got involved in the teamwork side which changed the game completely.

If that's the case you'll just have to wait for patches. Should sort it out :)
 
Started playing yesterday, the only thing i hate is the credentials. How can you afford 725 for a gun ? :( All together i have earned about 60 after 5-6 hours of playing. I spent 15 on a new scope, and 25 on a few upgrades for my armour.
I read that, every 500xp you get 1 and every hour you will get 1. Is that correct?

Other than that, good game. It would be even better if i had people to play with :( we can go in a squad and do things our way instead off holding back with others or running around like headless chicken.

That's where the Sony station points come in. The games free but you'll have to do some killer grinding to unlock stuff unless you pay for it.

I'll quite happily put £20 into the game for some big point upgrades providing its not like £5 per weapon or something ridiculous.
 
If your in a squad and also actively doing stuff your XP and thus CERT gain is fine.
If your trying to solo, waiting for XP(boring base cap), just stood scratching your head or dieing a lot then it wont seem so good, and infact may seem to be crappy.

They have a 5 year plan in mind, not a 5 month plan stuff needs to take a while to get. If you hadnt spent 40 certs on a scope and upgraded armour, you would be 40 certs closer to that weapon. (choices and sidegrades)
500 XP is 1 big base capture, 250 for a small one or outpost.
500 XP is also 5 basic non adjusted kills. slightly extra if you also destroy a vehicle.

You get extra XP for healing, repairing and re-supply squad mates.
You get extra XP for killing someone in tandem with a squad mate.
You get extra XP for avenging a squad mate.
You get extra XP for tank kills if you have a gunner in the tank(just for sitting there). Even more if hes a squad mate. If he jumps out and gets some infantry kills, you get XP for the first few of those as well (A deployment kill).
You also get kill streak bonuses, so again staying alive is good for you.

SOE are in this game of making money so whilst you "can" get stuff by grinding it. Im sure they would prefer you to buy a sub, supliment that with a booster or just flat out buy the guns you want.

They keep on using the LOL example for the cash shop prices, and LOL have charged £8 for champions and skin packs, in the past.
 
Cert gain becomes easy once you know the game. If anything i would argue its currently too fast to entice people to pay to play.

Vent no ocuk outfit yet, maybe once the game starts.
 
Ok guys maybe we should start planning for the OCUK outfit.

Can we get a list of names for who would be interested, along with a vote for which faction to play?

Harbourite - Terran Republic (best tanks!)
 
Yah cant say im overly impressed with the terran tanks, compared to magriders and whatever the smurfs drive. Anyway, if i ever get the game going again past 15%, ill be interested -

Devil - TR

mind you, if we go something else, I can go along with that. might be interesting trying out another side.
 
I don't mind going NC, love it when you get a big tank column going though, not sure if it is so awesome with the VS Magriders. I may be wrong though. Will go through and make a list of everyone over the next few days and tally the results of who we should be.
