I really enjoyed this last night. They've fixed the mic issues from beta and frame rate is also much better now. Lots of techno music proximity voice spamming going on lol. I camped in a turret defending a mobile spawn point and got 10 kills within a few minutes. Battle rank 4 in no time. Now I can snipe.

They need to add a score screen you can view during being spawned in. It's silly having to wait until you die to see how many kills etc you are on.

Managed to download it without any hassle as it automatically downloaded when my PS4 was in rest mode.

Hold option to see what kill's you on, it will also how everyone else.
 
Played a bit tonight. Er..... Just seems like a really long game of Conquest except you have more than 1 area to capture. On the plus side the hit detection is pretty much spot on.
 
Played loads on pc thought id try it on ps4 ,whilst it runs ok I cant aim to save my life with a ps4 pad ......absolutely terrible turned it off after 10 mins lol :(
 
Experienced quite a drop in frame rate earlier which seemed to persist. Hadn't really experienced anything bad until then but it was certainly noticeable.
 
I'm really enjoying this on PS4. Loads of players now and huge battles going on. TR locked down Amerish on the Ceres server last night and I was part of a die hard group of VS players managing to somehow hold on to the bitter end with a single sunderer spawn point. The entire continent was locked down by TR and they utterly surrounded us. Took about an hour for them to finally wipe us out. Was great!
 
Nope, full game. Does feel like a beta at times though. Great game, just wish more of my mates enjoyed it!
 
I've been playing for 30 minutes or so on the Tutorial Island place and all I seem to do is die a lot and run around. I swear it takes the other guys 3 shots to kill me but it takes me 50 to kill them!
 
An hour in and it has got a bit better- a bunch of us bundled into this guy's Battle Wagon and went on a bit of a rampage. I unlocked the inflitraroe class but it plays a bit awkwardly- having to (manually) before sniping, in zoom to load a new round and it seemes quite hard to snipe accurately although it is likely that I am just crap.

Edit- melee kills in this are awful! The number if times I'm stood behind our in or in front if a dydevasnd the knife stabbing doesn't detect!!!!

Knifing is indeed terrible. The New Conglomerate sniper is like a laser, you actually have to aim slightly low in most cases to land a shot. If you purchase the Straight Pull Bolt for it, you can reload without havkng to scope out. If you're going to snipe, make sure you use your motion detector darts. Hold down triangle to equip, fire one at a wall and they'll detect any enemies within x metres for 30 seconds or so. Great for XP if used correctly and a great contribution to your team :)
 
I played this years ago on pc and had no idea what the hell i was doing so i only lasted about 30mins

I think ill have another bash to see if i can get into it

This is what I did. It seems a bit more... calm on PS4.

Is there a class / gun that is semi automatic and good at long distance, but not in the sniper class? That's the style I like to play like the M14 in COD games.
 
Played quite a bit of this on PC when it first launched, and ended up leaving it as the balance in game was pretty badly off at the time.

Just had a blast on the PS4 and the first thing that was blatantly obvious was the horrendous amount of friendly fire, team killing, sabotaging own terminals etc. Seems like there's quite a few ***** play this on console.

Going to try this later, power up the PS4 for the first time in ages!!

I loved this on the PC, if there was ever a game crying out of for PS4 v Xbox One, this is it! :D
 
Been playing this loads on PS4 and still loving it. VS on Ceres are massively outnumbered but we seem to pull through and win alerts quite frequently. I think once outfits are supported this will become brilliant for combined arms stuff too. Needs to be patched up more to be on equal terms with PC version.
