*** Official Planetside 2 Thread ***

Well their anti cheat is just a BS stat flag on an account - if that medic mentioned was getting 20-30 headshots in a matter of seconds almost certainly a flag would appear on his account and then a GM would start watching him. The GMs then make the call to ban if it's obvious the person is cheating.
 
Apparently cheats are out now on some sites. Always going to be a problem with a free game which relies on kills to accrue better stuff. Plus theyve always said they dont use anti cheat tech. Could be a real problem if they dont stamp down, and hard.

This thread will be hilarious.
 
Well if the BF3 thread is anything to go by, most posts will be complaining about hackers.

Ah right. I dont think it will affect PS2 to that degree unless it becomes really widespread, simply because of the nature of fights. Theyre spread out all over the map, in the big fights chances of encountering same players over and over are minimal, statistically really obvious when hacks are being used etc. In a closed map like BF3 certainly more in your face.

Still, wouldnt like to see it go rampant.
 
press alt+f in game (then alt again to get the cursor off the screen) and it'll show your fps at the bottom left and whether your cpu or gpu is bottlenecking it. in the large battles it'll probably say cpu and most people are getting those low fps in big battles.

Thanks. Yeah, exactly what I'm getting, CPU bottleneck in large battles, sometimes going down to like 10-15 fps :( with it but when I'm driving in the open etc getting 70-80 fps bottlenecked by my 7850 2GB.

What kind of FPS are you getting on your i5?

in the bigger battles it will drop to 25 with the cpu bottlenecking it. It'll only be using about 50% cpu though :confused:

That's seriously mucked up.

They really need to sort out the optimization on their code.

Maybe they're planning on selling an "increased FPS" perk. lol

Do you reckon they'll sort their code in the near future?

I know the battles are on a massive scale but that's really poor FPS considering your quality of hardware. Dodgy coding .......... you would have thought they'd have used the beta to try and improve the frame rates.

Not much point having a large scale, online warfare game if 90% of people are getting close to unplayable FPS in large battles.
 
The only bottleneck i seem to be getting is my crap 3.5 mbps internet connection. Lowest fps i have seen was 48 and i dont have an insane system. All graphics on high apart from shadows on medium.
 
I'm on ultra settings (UserOptions.ini modded) @ 1920x1200 and the lowest fps I've seen is 41fps - still perfectly playable at that fps.

I don't know what everyone is moaning about.

Wish there was a way to get back certs, I bought infrared for my reaver by mistake :(

No kidding right?

I looked at some videos and screenshots and topics discussing the Night Vision upgrade, looked pretty good.

In practice, it's deadly, not to the enemy, but to you and everyone else that is flying around you because you can't see them.

Works if you flying really low, but if you that low, then you don't have much time to really line up shots.

Maybe it be ok if you 1on1 with some ground vehicles but when there is 100's around you, it's bad.
