Servers are generally up 2pm-7am GMT.

O ok =) Thanks!

 

[:(Rhodri:)]

Unless I've missed something they still haven't implemented the high-res textures yet.

 

[rogueblade]

I'm on EU3

 

[nitram100]

Nope, im TR on EU1.

urghhh you're one of them. That server needs a pop cap, TR was at 60% the other day, bloody ridiculous.

You could try "instant Action" instead, that sometimes drops you quite close to the front line, all you do is open the map, click on a battle and then press the instant action button and it will then drop you in a pod thing directly to that area, much quicker than running from the nearest spawn point.

That's what I'm talking about though. You instant action nearby, but as soon as you get killed you'll often spawn some 500+m (1000+ isnt uncommon) away. Also, if a base gets taken shortly after you instant action there, then you're stranded there more or less for up to 5 minutes whilst waiting for the cooldown on the instant action button, unless there's another fight not too far away that you can take a vehicle to.

Just received my M17x R4 with 7970, hoping Planetside now actually runs

I find that after about the third time of making a ridiculously lengthy run to get to the battle, only to be killed as soon as you get there, you lose all will to play and end up logging out. :<

Can I have your account Im looking forward to this, I dont have particularly fond memories of PS1, the mechanics were great but the sheer pointlessness of fighting for the same territory over and over again made me want to kill myself. So my expectations are low

 

[Kamwah]

Just played some. Couldn't understanda thing I was ment to be doing and seems to be a bit confusing to be thrown stair into =/

T_T

 

[rogueblade]

Game got patched again today. More certs available for weapons and vehicles! And hax capping now requires adjacency.

I know there are a few Saitek X52 flight stick owners on these forums. I bodged together a profile to make it work with the PS2 beta and it works surprisingly well.

That lappy looks badass, Sam

 

[XPE]

Lucky you I cant get my joystick working with ps2


Anything you needed to do to get it to work?

 

[Rigsta]

Since explaining why I created the profile would potentially break the NDA I will gladly explain it on the PS2 forum if you ask in the thread I linked

Yes, and 50% of that are sitting at warpgate resource farming.

Snip

I ain't even jelly.

Guys, might be worth turning off FXAA to make everything much more crisp. There's a config change somewhere to do this.

Should help in the next few days when *everyone* has tomcats.

Quick Q

My mate played planetside years ago and still has his account details, can he still get into the beta or is it too late

cheers
