*** Official Planetside 2 Thread ***

Does anyone get this ridiculous lag in large battles? Checked my internet and all is fine. No other games play up as much as this!


Just look at that mini map!

Sometimes it's absolutely fine in large battles, other not so fine :s
 
What server are you on? That's pretty bad lag tbh, never seen it quite that bad.

I'm on Woodman. Quite a few people on the official forums seem to be having similar problems. It's very odd, seems to happen only in large battles but sometimes it runs absolutely fine even in the biggest of battles.
 
You were on Indar. It has stupid lag in some of the hexes if there are lots of people, a couple of the hexes have stupid lag most of the time, even in small fights.
There are scetions of HVAR tech where the game will drop to 1 FPS even with only 1 person in the hex.
The continent suffers from being the first developed and also the first redevloped for the lattice. Its a mishmash of geography and doesnt seem to have been optimized all that well.

Its much better on the other continents in same size fights.

I have had that not often but I have had it. Its more a sync issue I think.
 
So ANTS and Farming is coming back to Planetside 2. Vehicle timers are being removed and all resources are being combined to make one pool.

Player resources is going to be fed by power from bases which players must farm for.

Looking forward to my Timer cert refund, that's surely going to give me 9999 certs, would have more if they didn't cap it there.

Hi

What does that mean for players when you need to farm at bases?
 
The cert cap is only for earned certs :) refunded certs have no upper limit :D That's why in the epic failure that was SC duplicate to cert refunds, some people ended up with like 200 thousand certs.
 
When playing I some times get 1 fps for no reason it can happen at any time and it does nt really depend on how many people are there just every now and then it happens.

where did you get this information from?

It was a combination of dev posts of reddit and also the roadmap post about resources has been updated.

This new post on PSU sums there ideas up quite well.

It will be more focused than a PS1 ant run. More risks and more rewards.
Also they have no clue about ANTs at the moment.
Will it be 1 man small vehcile, will there be multiple power vehilces. Could it just be an addon for sunderer. Could it be a deliver sized vehilce with guns.

Obviously its not complete and they are still working on stuff, but its penciled in for Sep release at the moment.
 
Just got back into this playing on miller, Didnt really like it at first but really grown on me anyone here NC. What weapons are worthy upgrades. Any thing I should shouldnt be certing ?

Any general advice would be much appreciated.
 
I wasn't a big fan of it at first but then after joining a large outfit, my view has completely changed. Some well coordinated attacking and defending really changes things.

If you are just starting out, I would recommend upgrading medic/engineer to milk some easy certs.

Cert reset in this update or the next? Been waiting for it forever, I badly messed up my cert allocation when I first started out.

Not sure if it's a total cert reset this patch. I have heard in this patch any certs you put into vehicle acquisition are getting refunded though.

Definately this. It gives a whole new perspective.

I've been playing engineer and, playing in an outfit, it allows you to make some sense about what's going on (listening and following) whilst still being useful
