>>144203093
what's your point

The thing with kdr is that nobody cares if all you do is farm noobs or not

they don't read into it any further than using it as a high score where bigger numbers are always better no matter what

>>144203179
If a 1-2kd anon says "FOLLOW THESE TIPS TO GET BETTER", then you don't have to listen to him. You might want to do it to prevent other anons from being misled, but based on your responses I seriously doubt that you care about scrubbies.

I'm finally at a point to upgrade my MAX, which weapons are actually useful?

I play VS and the current Quasar + Comet/Burster loadout is shit

>If a 1-2kd anon says "FOLLOW THESE TIPS TO GET BETTER", then you don't have to listen to him.
Wrel did the old "official" tutorials, was be far the first thing you'd find googling for PS2 tutorial vids, and especially now that he's a dev people trust what he says.
Of course I, personally, don't have to follow what he says. But if he says something, it should be good advice.
>You might want to do it to prevent other anons from being misled, but based on your responses I seriously doubt that you care about scrubbies.
No shitters for me to farm means no fun for me. If the devs were less incompetent and the game had a smoother learning curve, significantly fewer people would ragequit; they'd have fun in their own way, and I'd have fun by farming them.
I'm not charismatic enough to put videos on youtube, and reddit is a shithole where you get shouted down and banned for having slightly unpopular opinions, but I did my best by writing http://pastebin.com/p0ZwzqSu and http://i.imgur.com/HOdhWox.png

Hueshifts for AI, twin Comets for AV and AI if you're good at hitting blue plates on C4 fairies.

MAX semi-Lancer arms are interesting but not as easy as just going HA and grabbing your actual Lancer.

>>144204528
You should rework the INF part of your weapons chart; put the auto scout rifles under "Are you god? > YES > Big boolet? > NO > ASR." It's odd to put them under the first 'no' tree, if you suck at aiming the autoscout's minuscule magazine and low DPS isn't going to do you any favors at all.

>>144205281
I want that helmet god damnit

>>144205497
i disagree
autoscouts are ez as fuck

>>144205838
probably because you can aim

give the average SMGshitter a gun with a whopping 24 rounds of 652/143 and they probably won't even be able to break a heavy's shields

>>144204528

I like how all of my favorite weapons are in the ">are you good >no" section of the chart.

I'm not particularly good

I think the guy who did TR comrade also did the voice of Pavel in Metro Last Light. I think they wanted to do a German Oberststurmfuhrer type thing, but decided against it because Germany would cry.

>>144206515
Of course Bursters for AA

>>144205497
I thought about that while I was making it, but ultimately decided against it because it's still an automatic, and not really that much different from a carbine.
Also, if you're at close range and can aim, there's no reason to take an autoscout over a semi sniper or CQC bolt.

what method is this guy using to boost so hard?

https://www.planetside2.com/players/#!/5428460323747896449/

>>144227527
Stat reset.

>>144227743
would that put you on the score leaderboard?

>>144227857
He might be spamming bounties.

>>144227743
It says the account was created sometime in April - would a stat reset tamper with those dates too?

He doesn't show up on the kill-padding leaderboards either. Possibly boosting off new ammo-pack mechanics? I found 2 VS on the map border in the absolute middle of fucking nowhere a few weeks back, after they lifted the exp cap on that. One set to macro fire into the distance, the other macro throwing down ammo packs. It felt nice running them over, but I'm sure plenty do that and don't get found. I'm on Connery though, so boosting is relatively common among the Asians, I'm not sure how it is on Emerald.

Additional info : yeah, just found it. He's ammo pack spamming. 2000+ ammo resupply ribbons, if you check the final rank of engineer directives.

http://ps2.fisu.pw/directive/?name=fisuleee&category=3&directive=26

>>144208631


Would Burster or Comet be recommended as first purchase then?

I have the Nemesis and Lancer on my HA

>>144229078
7000+ squad leadership ribbons too, that basically confirms it. Plus the vast majority of his ranks come from individual sessions.

Because most of us aren't huge losers who need to macro to get ahead.

>>144229515
Probably. Why isn't everyone doing it? - >>144229895

It's amusing too, he has two of his alts that he does it with as friends. About the only unlocks on them are suppressors for their beamers, which coincidentally have an extremely high number of shots fired without any kills.

>>144235159
So why not just play the game and buy the things on a whim. And again, if you have to exploit to get ahead, then you're not much better than the neet who tries (and fails) to grind effectively.

Plus, if you exploit and somebody catches you, you can get banned. Then who wasted hundreds of hours to get pretty much nada?

I like the zephyr more as its easier for randoms to use if they are ever around and easier to put rounds on a target of your choosing at ranges greater than 100m, unlike the duster.

>>144255673
Zepher is usable in far more circumstances, but the duster is what'll get you off when it works out right.

If you find a biolab fight where the attackers are on the platform, or your guys have just been pushed off the platform - a duster can work wonders here. As in, 15+ kills per magazine wonders. It's the most effective way to either clear a biolab assault, or farm one. I've run kamikazi flights into biolab extreme flak zergs due to how good it was. Gunner and pilot go bail assault with a comp armour duster lib - you can get at least 1 mag out before the 50 heavies on the pad down the lib, and then you can c4 a few more. Basically guaranteed 20+ kills for the gunner, and at least 3 or 4 for the pilot, all in the course of about 10 seconds.

Generally, 90% of the time you want a zepher though. You only grab the duster when you know there is the perfect farm for it. Esamir occasionally has these, and Hossin sometimes does too.

>single prowler at render range can knock down airshields and remove turrets and walls faster than they can be replaced
>only teamwork required is the gatekeeper has to bring an ammo sundy
underpowerd

>>144261472
also as additional information : if you're dusting a biolab airpad, and you've outfit-mates inside the biolab, it always helps to coordinate an EMP or two, a couple of seconds before your fly-over.

It does make a noticeable difference.

Even without it, all guns that get it already have a velocity increase, because the HV buff in velocity has been decreased.

>>144281567
Well, 3.14 is definitely a decent scope for it. It's a fun gun. Not the worlds best, but it's unique. Go for the headshots, and don't try outsnipe the snipers. If you want to be the ultimate memer, get the smoke grenade launcher and IRNV scope. You can resupply smoke grenades off your engineer pack. Just watch out for people running MLG pro settings with their smoke turned off.

>>144284724
>+20m maximum damage till drop off begins.
>-2m to minimum damge.
That's the exact opposite of what it does. It increases hits to kill between 8-10m in exchange for +30m/s to velocity (lol) and not decreasing hits to kill at any distance.

>>144284724
>>+20m minimum damage till drop off begins.
This only really matters on carbines, due to dropping multiple damage tiers, and even then it's highly questionable given how often they tend to get used up close. It really isn't worth using on anything other than long range carbines. On anything else, all you're getting is token velocity for -2m max damage.

>>144285226
>>>+20m minimum damage till drop off begins.

We should do this again, it was pretty fun. I play VS but if we all did a outfit I'd be down. I'm still hoping for a lib unit.

Would anyone else be interested in a lib outfit that just went around carpet bombing zergs and changing to the under popped faction? (more certs that way anyhow)

>>144289580
you sound like a faggot

>>144285436
You know what I mean.

By sliding out where the minimal damage range begins, HVA is essentially sliding out where the middle damage tier of most carbines is located, in terms of meters. This being in exchange for causing the drop to begin earlier.

This is a direct punishment for any weapons that do not have multiple damage tiers. You're lowering the distance you can get say a 6 shot kill, in exchange for nothing. Where, if you've multiple damage tiers, you're sliding out the range you can get a 7 shot kill a fair bit (as opposed to needing 8 at X distance), in exchange for slightly worse 6 shot kill range.

Basically, new HVA is shit. The only guns it has any effect on were far better before, because most of the guns that got the +10, 15, 20% velocity boosts were carbines. Instead of being an attachment worth bringing on carbines and nothing else, it's now worth bringing on nothing but said carbines, and is very situational on carbines, because you don't get even half the velocity boost.

At least, I think that's how it's all supposed to work.

That feel when I payed back at that time, and remember the ebin crown fights and shitfuckery like that. The game had soul back then. I wasn't even on that server, but the game in general was so much more alive. Dumb stuff like having a VS mega-fortress behind your lines was fun. It felt like such an achievement to take them. There is absolutely no way they can ever get back the fun of those times. The only base that gives even remotely similar feels is SNA or some parts of Hossin, because I've never played there.


I wish I wasn't so poor back then, I could've so easily bypassed the cert grind and upped my fun levels, instead of leaving for 2 years.

this is actually exactly what you're doing right now.

also "smarter" is a subjective point of view when the game is both: A)more fun to play as infantry and B)requires storming objectives to win.

You're literally just doing the safest, most boring thing you possibly can so you can raise a meaningless number and act all high-and-mighty on internet forums because your number is higher than someone elses.

I knew a guy with like a 45 KD because all he ever did was farm with a prowler and redeployed whenever an enemy got within a mile of him.

If that's your idea of "smart" then I'd rather be dumb and have fun.

/ps2/
aka
"your opinion is wrong because my KDR is higher: the general"

HVA and SPA should be all upside and no downside and every weapon should have access to both, and there should be more ammo types.

The downside to using them is not being able to use the other.

>>144331015
>"your opinion is wrong because my KDR is higher: the general"
No, your opinion is very probably wrong because you're bad, not because of your KDR.
However, being bad at infantry has a very strong correlation with low IVI KDR, and vice versa,

There a mlg graphics setting I can tamper with, to prevent the obnoxious swishing effect that both spawn-room shields, and construction base force-fields have? It's easier to defend a construction wall / bunker without the field than it is with, due to the shitty distortion. I'd just rather not need to run an IRNV scope to use them.

You can turn transparent shit off entirely.
This doesn't fuck you with shitfiltrators, they become really, really visible instead

>>144334320
MLG players actually use it though

In fact, this is pretty typical of how the MLG crowd plays - constantly pushing boundaries for any kind of advantage, and often outright cheating if they know the enforcement is lax and they can likely get away with it.

All MLG type players are a cancer.

Just look at "I'm a pro honest my game files just accidentally got corrupted and gave me an advantage is all" visigodo and his outfit of cheaters, AC.

>>144334320
Well, considering that the entire purpose of player constructed base shields is to enable the defender to defend, it seems a little odd that it's easier to defend without them. Would you prefer I call it tryhard settings then? It really isn't on the same level as smoke removal, and that's something relatively common and accepted among the """""""high tier"""""""" player-base.

>>144335118

>higby got drunk on work
i fail to see how that's bad
>and was a yes man to smedley
not really, he tried hard to push his own shit, but if he had pushed too hard he'd have gotten fired

>>144346629
Prowlers, sorry

>>144346393
shh we don't speak the devil's name here

>>144346629
like what? he pushed battlefield shit just like smedley did

Depends on the vehicle load out and weapon you are using. Priorise threats to your vehicle and on last hits.
Orientate yourself on the driver. Shoot what he's shooting and hold your fire when the enemy hasn't seen you yet.
Like sneaking/getting into a better firing position on an enemy tank and opening up in tandem with the main gun.

Destroying an ESF as a ground pleb gets you the saltiest, most delicious tells.

>Shoot what he's shooting and hold your fire when the enemy hasn't seen you yet
Oh shid, I've been AVOIDING shooting whatever he was shooting. Since I figured I should worry about things he hasn't noticed or is too busy to do anything about..

What are the different guns and how do I know which I should use to shoot what? I've seen one that looks like a rocket rack, a chaingun, and the sunderer machine guns.

>What should I do when gunning?
look around, spot everything you see, shot mans
>What should I prioritize?
shoot whatever your driver is shooting at
>What should I not shoot?
everything (unless your driver is shooting), unless they're an immediate threat (fairies, etc.).
>When should I gtfo and start repairing?
when your tank is low on health, when your driver gets out to repair, or when it's just a little bit low on health and your driver is standing still and taking shots at far away targets.
>All I know is never to shoot ESFs or gunships.
do shoot them if they're close and they're shooting you

>ground pleb
but that's not how you spell "EX QUAKE PRO armed with a DECIMEME and THE POWER OF DANK MEMES"

Killing the ESF tryhards with tomcats was always the best way to get ragetells

easily 3/4ths of the skyknights whine when they get shot down this way

They're not usually good players at anything but 1vs1 nosegun duels, and often statpad on infantry with rocketpods to inflate their kdr.

So imagine an average shitter who's gotten used to farming a lot of people without dying, and then you actually shoot him down reliably with tomcat missiles. They always rage the fuck out.

Please learn appropriate times to get out and repair

I had a guy in my outfit who would get out to repair seemingly every single time I moved the tank, because he couldn't figure out when it was repair time and when it was 'gtfo time' and it got us killed often because I'd wait for him to hop back in and we'd get caught, or leave him behind and lack a gunner/more reps and leave him salty at me.

He's literally the only person I've ever had this issue with (even pubs were better) so you should be okay even if you have basic common sense.

>sunderer machine guns
Don't hop in vehicles with those, they're shit. Basilisks are barely even usable on maxes.

>>144346679
ESFs are pointless, but you should absolutely shoot at Libs, Valks, and Gals. I'm saying this as a Valk main at the point of dropping air completely thanks to the Gatekeeper exclusively.

>>144347730
And you ground pleb probably suck at everything but playing resist shield HA in easily defendable bases.

this reminds me so much the Silent Cartographer level in Halo CE, the point where you could see the golden elite on the other side of the door

Been a while. Are the Vanu Shitters still OP?
