>>147079008
idk i still think AV nades are entirely underrated
noting better than getting behind some shitter viper lighting and unloading bandolier AV nades up his ass, then finishing off with a deci

>>147078342
I stopped using them when they were nerfed. Which was way back.

>>147079205

The fuck did you expect.

>>147096829
I dunno. Hopefully their gay event gets trashed by liberators and galaxies.

>>147078759
Yes, for several reasons that were later fixed.

The dual cycler MAX did less damage per shot than the infantrys dual cycler. This coupled with the pitiful AI damage compared to the quasar and especially scat max made the pounder the favored MAX indoors. Initially the pounder was intended for AI and raped, they switched the two but screwed up the DCs AI damage.

The Prowler for the longest time required three people just to match the DPS of the Vanguard. Later they set the cannon to be slightly behind the Vanguards cannon but out DPS when the chaingun was manned.

The NC and notably the VS had an easier time running over people with BFRs. The wide leg gap allowed people to easily avoid being run over by TR BFRs.

>>147095638
I would assume the plan is to enter the shitter derby and immediately head for the nearest tower to spawn a valk and shit ten pizzas into the homozone?

>>147097125
Did VS end up being shit?
I seem to recall people complaining about how they were the NS faction.

>>147097640
Didn't*

>>147097640
laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasher

>>147097640
VS has had jumping MAX units since launch. This removed one of the largest threats to tanks and infantry, aircraft. Imagine a lock on turret that is tiny, hits hard, and can get on top of trees and their branches.

The Magrider was the only vehicle capable of crossing water for the longest time. Not until BFRs were released did cannon shells and rockets explode on contact with water. Imagine missing by a hair and doing no damage against a vehicle that can move in any direction with ease. It was also very effective against aircraft.

The Lasher wasn't the up close heavy weight of the JH nor did it offer the medium range kill zone of the MCG but in large groups it stopped assaults cold. Coordinated and skilled users could still make a name for themselves such as the Delta Triad.

>Imagine missing by a hair and doing no damage against a vehicle that can move in any direction with ease

>>147098857
Because it's fun.

>>147098938
but outside of directive hunting, you're probably better off with a lightning.

>>147098726
Essentially, the VS were the top tier defensive empire. Air was required to take out turrets and defensive AMSes, the StarFire easily put an end to any aircraft. Magriders were capable of sniping from the bottom of hills and the tops of them making it difficult to win ground battles unless you had a decent amount of cover. If those failed then the Lasher was quite reliable at holding chokepoints like the backdoor. They struggled to defend Tech Plants as there wasn't much room before finding the CC.

Offensively they struggled. Their AI max was lack luster and at best could dodge a deci by jumping. Many soldiers would run in with the pulsar equipped as the Lasher was a death sentence in the open.

>>147099059
the 150HE can instagib entire clumps of packed infantry. and two shots anything without flak armor on a near miss. I'll give you that its complete garbage against anything besides infantry, but if you're sieging a base full of mudfoots, 150 HE with a Mjollnir top gunner is pretty damned good.

I learned long ago to pretend friendlies aren't even there. ps2 is actually a single player game

>>147108509
But they still run in front of you and block your bullets. Or place mines in the middle of allies so one EMP will kill everyone.

>>147108223
i've already certed literally anything not meme-tier (rangers, valk, those dozen different gun optics, etc)
at this point, i'd get no benefit from running boosts, and having them would be exclusively to support the game which, as we all know, is for fucking retards

ignore the legendarily bad k/d, I:

>was playing alone against a coordinated team of TR with a pop double ours
>had pretty much given up on trying to kill the TR, I was just trying to bumrush through our last base on the continent before the cap finished so I could actually see the meteor shower because a lot of them were just somehow playing normally through the intense shaking and explosions

Supposedly most players hack in PS1 now, I didn't notice anything glaring myself, person making the claim said it was just ROF and cof/accuracy increases mostly

So what do you faggots think could honestly be done at this point to get AND retain new players?

I mean PS1 is dying for real tomorrow, but the Russian oligarchs who bought out DBG probably won't keep the lights on past a certain point for ps2, and we seem to be bleeding players and not keeping any of the new ones things like construction brought in.

>>147134773

PS1 shutting down is a bad sign as it is given it's been alive for so fucking long

It needs consistent and substantial new content every 3-4 months and fixes to systemic issues.

They're addressing newbies having shit loadouts to start with, which is good.
They're also working to solve the cheater problem, which is very good.
They need to next get newbies into actual platoons and squads when they start playing and scrap koltyr entirely.
After that they need to fix the remaining balance issues (like actually figuring out why NC loses so many alerts)

And then they need to pump out large content updates in quick succession - every 3-4 months there needs to be something the size of the construction update.

I honestly don't think they can manage it.

>>147136391
I really wonder how many people they still have working on the game. Seems to be only a skeleton crew as far as I can see so I'm not really optimistic

Hate it.

No dismount or entry animations
No indoor combat (when I played beta + launch)
Some of the worst world design I've ever seen - instead of clever use of terrain they simply cut and paste bases in different layouts.
No bunkers, Towers are too open and explosion spam too easy
No holstering, thus removing one of the core aspects of the original MMO's charm. Roleplay isn't possible anymore, you are no longer part of a living world but playing call of duty in a hub world

Generally I've come to accept that modernization of planetside simply doesn't work. Things like headshots and sprinting innately throw off the balance PS1 achieved - if your gun shoots twice as fast (TR's asymetrical gimmick) then you're going to innately get double the headshots and if headshots are double the damage, well, it goes off the rails pretty fast.

Sprinting is just annoying and sped up combat to an absurd degree.

Implants... well I have nothing nice to say about any of that shit.

Stealth nerf to resist heavies. Adrenaline still have 950ish health with heavy shield up, while resist heavies only have resist for 500 health.

Adrenaline EHP=450+500=950 health due to no regular shield
Resist EHP=500/.6= 833.33 effective health.

Granted, the resist shield heavy will maintain that HP after emp while the adrenaline maxed will slowly lose about 18ish health for their shield every second after emp.

>>147168465
If wrel really wants to turn planetside 2 back into more specialized classes for mmos like it seems like with this upcoming update, I think he should make this change.

NMG=breaching
Adrenaline=farming
Resist=1v1

>>147168265

heh

>>147168491
other shields also protect you from bolt shitting

>>147168762
i don't get it, adrenaline is clearly the one with the reset mechanic that's catered to breaching
and resist is clearly the one with mechanics catering to farming non-heavies relentlessly
and NMG is clearly the one that should give you the highest EHP for a single encounter

>>147168921
Nah, adrenaline and NMG can be one shot with a headshot.

>>147168769
Buffs make games interesting. Nerfs make game boring. Its an opinion, but if theyre not making planetside 3, I want the game to last, even if its ded right now.

Chameleon suit would help infiltrators. Maybe add another cloak that recharges with primary weapon, but youre limited to walking speed?

Or add an icarus version of the drifter like from the trailer.

The same meta is boring desu.

>>147169178
Yeah, I think I messed up. Your roles make more sense. I still think NMG not draining until getting shot would help newer players though.

Bolt action HSM: 2.1
Bolt action max damage: 700

Adrenaline+regular health/shields= 450+1000=1450(nanoweave doesnt affect headshots)

Also, the circle indicator for hits is NOT A HEADSHOT indicator, that just means you did a high amount of damage. Proof being the totq-9 landing headshots, and not getting that indicator.

>>147166786
>Stealth nerf to resist heavies

It's an indirect buff to both adrenoweave and resist HAs, it's just that resist is getting buffed less. (And it'll still be better than adrenoweave anyway.)

A month ago or so the dev said the implant rework was planned for the next 4 months or so if I recall correctly.

The last time the devs were talking about implant system reworks was almost 2 years ago, and then it was going to be combining 2 T4 implants into another implant with the effects of both, but nothing ever came of that.

Personally I'd just like it if there were 3 or 4 implant slots, and a limited number of equip points or some such so you could do e.g. 1 T4, or 4 T1s, or a T3 and 1 T1 etc, a la PS1.

At 1 KPM plus one minute to go through character creation and login, you're getting an average of 50 autism points per hour.
Even compared to an "easy" directive like ARs/carbines/LMGs which will take ~20 hours and give you a measly 100 autism points, the benefits are obvious.

The only weapon I think is genuinely way out of line is the betelgeuse - infinite ammo doesn't make it simply a sidegrade, it makes it a complete upgrade.

The directive weapons weren't intended to be flat out superior to non-directive weapons, but that's how they're turning out to be, and for whatever reason daybreak decided to give an exclusive ability to the VS directive LMG, but not the TR or NC ones.

I have no real hope of it ever being addressed.

>>147186661
>Pre-nerf SVA was insane

Was it really? That guy's spreadsheet says SVA has over 1.0 degree recoil spread, while guns that people "hate" (Rhino for example) have ~0.6.

To be honest i've never put much time into VS, but apart from 0.75 ads pre nerf Orion i can't think about any game-breaking VS gun.

For example VS medic starter is dogshit, it's even worse than Gauss rifle. Both are outclassed so much by T1 that it's not even funny.

It's only anecdotal but I genuinely feel that I perform a lot better fighting as infantry against NC as opposed to VS. It might just be a psychological issue causing me to perform worse or do stupider things, but I also feel that VS have significantly more people that simply kill me with a string of headshots before I can do anything.

>>147188340
>infantry against NC as opposed to VS

To be honest i like fighting VS the most, probably because of the Balanshee holocaust and russians, but nowadays after the merge with Werner, there is about as much russian laggers playing VS as russians playing TR.

Continued

As an NC with 160 days played i don't really think NC is worse than other factions, with exception of Vehicle secondaries. (i don't fly so i have no idea about that)

As a person with a scientific mind i can't really figure out why NC is losing so much more comparing to TR/VS, it MIGHT really be a sociological thingy (which is quite ridiculous)

>>147187398
Pre-nerf SVA was basically a pre-nerf Orion with 7% lower DPS, 150% boolets, and much more accurate.
>For example VS medic starter is dogshit
It's really not. It's worse than the T1, sure, but if you actually think it's dogshit then you are dogshit :--DDD

He's dead Jim. Dead forever.

>>147189482
>As a person with a scientific mind i can't really figure out why NC is losing so much more comparing to TR/VS
The core issue is that NC guns lose efficiency much faster with longer bursts, and that the average player knows jack shit about gun mechanics.
On top of that, NC attracts more 12 year old wannabe dudebros than the other two factions, VS attracts more 16 year old edgy spergs than the other two factions.
