*** Official Planetside 2 Thread ***

Small patch just popped up, early reports are positive for the stuttering issue.

Yup - back to how performance was pre-patch now - no more stuttering. Glad they've fixed the Mag strafe bug as well.

I really like the changes they've bought in at the last patch - starting to feel a bit more like PS1 now :-) Had a really good night with my outfit tonight.
 
An unrelated question to the performance issues which yeah can cause problems, such as mine seems to crash every hour or so. Is if I uninstall the game "I am wanting to reformat my hard drive" all character details will be saved online so I can just log back in once the game is reinstalled right?

Yes, all your characters are saved server-side so you won't lose them.
 
Yes, the new patch has seem to fixed my performance in game again, getting decent FPS again.

My Mossy works again, but I have noticed small differences in the game, the handling of the Mossy seems different now then before, infantry movement seems slower and feels bloated.

Other then playing really crap for the last two hours, am pretty happy today.

Christ Boris, what Ere are you living in? I can't think of one game that "ever" saved characters client side, only game that I know that does that is COD4.
 
Does anyone here play PS2 and use a ATi Radeon 7950? Having some issues with overclock and this game, wondered how any other 7950 users were getting on??

My 7950 seems to be ok, although I only have it clocked at 1020/1575. What issues are you having? Tbh I'm never that sure if my 7950 is running as it should, the drivers for this series have been terrible in my opinion.

Basically I posted in the graphics card forum the whole trouble and what I have tried:

http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18485701

My 7950 is randomly dropping to idle clocks of 500/150, so naturally the game runs like turd. I alt + tab out change res and back again, clocks are then restored, then go back into game. It's extremely annoying and only happens in planetside 2!!

Thanks for any help guys :)

Cheers for the heads up dude, but I don't believe my card suffers from this problem. The game actually seems to be running even smoother on my system now after yesterdays hotfix than it did prior the dodgy patch on Sat.

I'm using a ref MSI card, maybe the issue is with non ref cards?

Quick poll - revive grenade worth it? I'm looking at the 400 cert cost and thinking it's probably a bit expensive for something that you only get one of, that you have to actually throw to the right place, and that's probably very situational.

I imagine it's pretty cool getting the occasional 10+ revives with a single grenade, but can't see it happening that often.

I think the healing nade is said to be more worthwhile or the regular nade.
 
For a while now I havnt been able to resupply medi kits any one else having this problem? :confused:

Pretty much everyone has this issue, it's even listed on their known bugs list in the support section! They suggest ticking auto resupply. :rolleyes:
 
Well I took the plunge with the rez grenade, deployed to the nearest blob, and made 54 certs in about 45 minutes (which is unheard of for me :)).

It certainly has its quirks - the weird bounce physics doesn't help, and it seems to have issues with targets slightly above or below it, but it certainly beats the hell out of getting shot at while trying to rez a group of people. Easy to burn through your infantry resources at 100 a pop though.
 
Tempted to get them myself as I mainly play medic, don't know how much I'd miss frag grenades though. Its also getting hard with grenades, flash bangs, c4, bouncing betties, tank mines, medkits and Max suits all using infantry resources. Not sure I want yet another one on that list, then again I don't have Emp or Concussion nades yet.....
