*** Official Planetside 2 Thread ***

Well I think we have the choice of getting the main client from steam so that should lighten the initial load on the SoE servers massively. I would hazard a guess at the client download being around 7 gig. So downloading that depends on your speeds probably take me about 2 hours :(

Steam just downloads the launchpad. You will still have to download via SOE servers.
 
I tried running PS2 on the low settings. It still only runs at 30-40 fps with a 4.4ghz i5 and 6870. CPU load is never 100% so I really think there is an issue with AMD cards getting the best out of the game. Weirdly it still runs at the same speed in high graphics mode.

The game is CPU intensive right now.
 
I think hes funny, am thinking of making an account over there to join his outfit, it's a shame our accounts are not the same for all the servers. Shouldn't be too hard to pull off if they allowed that, but I guess I won't in the end.

Huh? I'm assuming you mean playing EU and US servers, on same account?

If so, you can...
 
I am only on a 2MB connection too,so I would need to keep the PC updating overnight. I don't mind doing that for a new game,but not for a stupid patch which is bigger than the game on my SSD.

The patching system for LoL and PS2 is rubbish and assumes everyone has a high speed connection. You cannot even download the flipping patches offline, and the stupid PS2 launcher cannot even pause downloads and if you shut it down the update starts again.

How are you supposed to download a patch offline?

Also, the patcher starts from where you quit.
 
I haven't really decided what class I want to use most yet. In PS1 I used to play the infiltrator with mines or pistol, and get up close with people. It seems now you can only use bolt action sniper rifles?

Not logged in PS2 for quite a while, but can you not use the SMG's/Shotguns?
