Awesome. Thanks for all the info.

what if they just went and banned for life all the players with +70% accuracy beyond 50m

I just decided to try PS2 recently, this is after playing PS1 for about 4 years so I have a fair idea of how it should be.

I uninstalled in about 2 hours. Am I missing something or is it really that garbage. Infantry play is just complete fucking ass, trudge around like you've wearing concrete shoes, weapons are complete shit apart from 3 exceptions, sprayandpray upclose, you're a faggot sniper, you're a faggot infil.

Fights are a complete clusterfuck where you die in 2 hits from every which way before you've even registered the threat. Didn't even make it to the vehicles. And yeah, I could grind out points to "upgrade" my stuff but honestly, I'd be surprised if it made any difference and fuck that noise.

>>154582882

>>154582882
i bet you mindlessly spawned into a base and pressed shift and W and expected high level tactical play with combined arms

give the game some time and join squads, you shitter

>>154583153
Well yes, I spawned in and expected some kind of reasonable gunplay, not a stodgy clusterfuck.

If I spend more hours and join more squads, will the core mechanics behind the infantry gunplay actually improve?

nice game planetards

>>154583348
no, you will come to understand and appreciate them better in the context of the whole game

planetside 2 is 4 years old and has been like this from the start. what it offers that is special is not fantastic gunplay and MLG first person shooter action.

it's the seamless transition between one battlefield and the other. combined arms in the sense not that each team is allocated 2 tanks and a helicopter, but in the sense that everything that happens is completely player driven. it's a sandbox shooter, a base construction, defense and assault game, a strategic battlefield all the way down to the lone wolf infilshitter

no other game offers what planetside offers, and this is why a lot of people refuse to be turned off by horrible performance, abhorrent graphics, terrible gunplay, awful netcode and HORRENDOUS faction balance

try again.

I'm real bad at this game but I've played it for years now, same with PS1.

You lot probably farm me regularly, I have memetracker but it usually just shows me a list of who killed me and says "Embarrassing" over and over.

But I still have fun. I love the atmosphere, I love being just a single guy who nobody is looking at twice in the middle of a huge battle, tanks rolling past, aircraft splitting the sky, explosions and gunfire and maxes oh my!

I focus on repairing and resupplying mostly, sometimes I pull a prox radar flash and park it under a biolab for a while to help everyone out with radar cover. They are small helps but I know someone is appreciating it.

Thing is, I know it's my outlook that makes me bad, I'm far too laidback and relaxed to have the twitch reactions a game like this needs. The playing-field is even, I'm given all the same tools and abilities as everyone else so I can't complain.

I understand all the mechanics and nuances, i'd have to be legitimately fucking retarded to not know them by now, effective ranges, noise thresholds etc etc so I always find it amusing when someone complains in here or on steam or elsewhere about the game being unfair, everyone hits too hard, everyone moves too fast, everyone has better guns because I know the truth, just like you all do;

They really do just need to aim better or accept their place in the food pyramid.

>>154609358
>twitch reactions a game like this needs
It's more about crosshair placement and situational awareness than twitch.

Have you tried to improve your performance at any point are you just fine the way things are?

>>154609358
you can turn the taunts off in recursion

You ever complimented the person who just killed you for their outfit before?

I did today, there was a TR sniper who nailed me in the head from miles away and on the death screen I couldn't help but stare at their character.

I don't know the names for TR cosmetics but the helmet was round and smooth and the color they had applied was wonderful, a deep metallic cherry red that reminded me of a classic christmas bauble, they didn't look garish at all.

I sent them a message saying I think they looked real great in that gear and I got "THX :DDDD" back which I think means they appreciated it.

>>154609682
>recursion
its too bad the guy who made recursion doesn't play anymore. He got busy after he found a job at intel, then got more busy when he found a female.

sned help quick..

>>154583872
This.

Except: faction balance is an issue, but frankly, you can always find a zerg to join. The real secret to Planetside 2 is finding and staying with the zerg.

That means getting in a large group. When large groups clash, the battles are incredible, and you can't find anything even remotely like it. Stuff like:

>Be me
>Be Heavy Assault Vanu, who are always short handed, so we're fucking better and you know it.
>Outside TR base, 100 yard sprint needed to get inside.
>Shit exploding all around
>Mosquitos flying in and killing doods all around me.
>Sprint the 100 yards, mosquito explodes over head, pieces all around me, smoke and shit, can't see.
>Get inside, blow up their vehicle station, get run over by asshole on a quad bike.
>Respawn and kill quad bike asshole with a tank mine.

You may not have noticed but none of those deaths were in fights against people.

Sniped from render range by AV turrets and infiltrators.

Reamed from all directions by scythes and fagriders.

Not an actual person to fucking shoot at in sight.

>>154611239
but did you shott better tho?

>>154611352
I definitely shotted at the tanks but I'm not sure it helped much. Archer can only accomplish so much in 5 shots.

Out sniping the snipers makes me hard as fucking steel, especially considering how shite the archer is.

It's a comfy taxi to put beacons on roofs, it could use a boost in terms of acceleration and top speed but it's the only vehicle in the game that wasn't designed with the intent to ruin infantry fights.

>>154624525
Fuck you. I'd rather it gets a performance upgrade. The game runs like shit in big fights of 96+. I literally phase trough the floor from lag.

So I've been playing for years now, but only recently created other faction twinks.
Any idea why I already have some non-default and non NS weapons unlocked on a brand new characters?

>>154632440
It's good at being a cheap taxi, of course randoms won't get in.

>directives broken
ebin :DD:DDD can't unlock my FPS killing meme c4 now :DD

thank u grunwald trubsisky

>>154582882
The game has performance issues. That is why the gameplay feel wonky sometimes.

Also you should find the right weapon for yourself.
For me it is the basic shotgun upgraded with x4 simple scope and slug ammo. I snipe the snipers with that and as long as i am not lagging i am ok in close combat too.

You should also try engi turrets. If you position properly so you don't get sniped immediately you will mow down people(until a cheater comes with an aimbot).

I play TR and their basic weapons are just fine.

P.S upgrading your armor will improve your lifespan dramatically

>>154636052

>It's another episode of praise malorn pls buff the carv because the weapon is the problem, it's totally not me!

>>154636293
Well all you have to do is to list situations where carv is better than other defaults to prove your point.

>>154636778
1. When you 1v1 gauss saw HA
2. When there are multiple shitters running towards your direction

Why do boolet run out so fast?
Is this because of the new hp meta?

Dunno, like 600? Started at 0.5 sens and been lowering it every day, it's at 0.4 atm.
>pretend you have ESP telling you there's an enemy behind literally every corner
And while I'm checking one corner I'm shot from the other.
>aim at head level, not at the ground
Already doing that, it lets me win some cqc faceoffs but that's about it. Aiming at head at longer distances than 10m is a nightmare

>>154641198
>Also, is there a vg outfit to join?

Not anymore

at what hsr does one graduate from "complete shitter" to "not complete shitter"

t. aspirant to achieve non crop status, @27% and rising on guns I've started using recently, ~600 kills to date.

>>154643330
It doesn't really matter but if you play mostly close combat you should be hitting 30+ without even trying on padding.

DO Not pad it for the sake of having the numbers high, you will end up dying a lot and not having fun

>>154643869
I just shoot mans whenever I see them. Even if they're 100 or so metres out, to try for the lucky final shot. My accuracy stat is pretty mediocre because of that. I'm consciously making a point to click heads when possible though, but not being anal or obsessive about it. I think I can see what you mean with the "playing for stats isn't fun" argument.

I do notice some strong difference in CQC 1v1's since I started paying attention to head clicking though.

Don't think about metrics, the moment you start thinking about metrics you already lost.

You can get a good kdr, good acc and good hsr just by picking the easy fights and redeploying somewhere else as soon as some people that can kill you arrive.

Camping a sunderer where low BRs keep spawning while you have are a br120 betelgeuse doesn't make you good, it only gives you the illusion that you are good, because of these fucking metrics.

You git gud the moment you go toe to toe with that faggot that streams, that has a giant ego, and thinks he's at counterquake pro level because he farms br20s on Emerald, and you kill him 5 times in a row in a fair 1v1 before he sends you some hackusation or rage tell.

Then you tell that fucker :

"Look at me. You're the shitter now."

That's when you know you got gud.

Don't get too hung up over k/d. It's nice to have it be positive, but don't let it get in the way of fun. There's a point where being good increases your fun because you're not shit anymore, and then there's a point where it actively hurts it.

VS is always short-handed and under staffed. This means we're generally better on the whole as we have grown up fighting at a disadvantage.

Get a good VS zerg going and you're toast. The thing that kills us is a good steady flow of enemy armor and unopposed mosquitos/reavers.

On foot, I feel like equal numbers of VS/TR and NCR, VS would usually win just because we have bigger clips and would be the last ones to have to reload.

Do we know if they are porting over everyone's characters, I truly don't want to grind out BR30 CR5 all over again.

>>154653835
Essentially.
Probably not on the character ports. Maybe there'll be some servers where you can just max your character straight up.

>>154653835
They'll definitely not be able to port characters.

Is PS1 new going to include BFRs?

Post bending but lacking BFR would be fucking sweet.

>>154654431
Think they mentioned somewhere that it would initially be started as equal to the state of PS1 when it ended but then community pressure could get things changed around. Damn right that biffers are going straight in the trash.

I don't think your computer is as toaster as you think.

In fact, I don't think you really understand what we mean when we say most people are playing on fucking toasters.

Old single/dual core CPUs, 4gb ram, onboard graphics, these are the marks of the toaster brigade.

Well considering my CPU is weaker in every way, as well as being older, and I play the game with high settings and at a solid 60fps I wouldn't consider it a potato no.

I've got a PhenomII X6 1055t, that's clocked at 2.8ghz.

Your CPU is 22nm process, mine is fucking 45nm.

Yours has considerably better performance in all areas, even if I pull a ridiculous overclock on the 1055t.

And yet it performs just fine.

My graphics card is a gtx 750, not exactly a high performance card, many of the 200 range GPUs are more powerful.

Pull your head out of your ass you spoiled twat, your computer isn't a potato.

"Ohh no, i've got such a shitty computer, excuse me while I run two demanding games at once tee hee"

>>154659050
>i5 anything
>R9 anything
That's already outside the realm of "low end".
Your parts *at stock speeds* are doubling my heavy OC ones in both single core CPU performance and GPU performance, and you have an extra core plus double ram.

And even *THAT* is not a low end m8, just a 7-year-old mid-tier PC.
Though, it is slowly getting dated.

For reference: Athlon II X3 460 + HD 5670 here
~55fps GPU bottleneck (small fights)
~25fps CPU bottleneck (large fights)
It's playable, but if there was a way to lower settings further, I would.

You don't address people here, just posts.

Besides, have you even considered what that reply meant? In case you didn't, here's a brief:
It was mocking the implication, than someone who prides themselves on having a shitty PC and is known amongst the community for it (the gus you speak of) would outright say "my pc isn't bad"
And in case you're still missing the point, it means:
>I'm not gus you faggot

Why is an average Vanu player able to instantly dominate the entire whiny TR faction with almost no experience with TR weaponry?

Engineer is THE class if you want challenging gameplay in PS2. We talk big, walk big, and carry a huge bag of tricks. Some people can't handle the low health. That's cool. Some people need that kind of "great job everyone, you tried your best so your all winners" kind of gameplay. You're not going to find that on Engineer. This is the adult class. No trophies for second place here. I've played on all the PS2 classes. There are some very good players on the others. But nothing like what we have here. I see players on the other classes who do things that simply would not be possible on Engineer, because if they tried that here they would be destroyed again and again. Engineer players are simply top notch. Whether VS, TR or NC, no other class has the same level of talent. Go ahead, flame me. But if you ever want to improve your score, come play on Engineer for a while, then go back to your old class. Going and playing on Heavy AssSalt or Memefiltrator for me is like playing against bots. Engineer = Hard Mode All the rest = New to FPS games? Play here to begin your adventure.

>>154689364

Jesus christ.

Okay listen, the underbarrel grenade launcher only explodes after a certain range. I wanna say it's like 10m. If you hit someone before that range, you have to hit the head to instakill with it.

If you hit someone BEYOND that range, any direct hit will instakill if the enemy isn't using flak.

That's how it functions.

However, it is mostly used to deal splash in a technically unlimited capacity as an engineer who can resupply themselves, so it's real use is for flushing people out of cover or doing finishing damage on people who are already hurt.

It's also not terrible at doing good burst damage to maxes, and as a method to damage and destroy vehicles while you don't have a better tool like the AV turret in your other slots. You'll be glad you have it equipped when you come across lightly or undefended sunderers and the like, if you didn't have AV turret or explo-xbow

>>154732895
>>Mjolnir is unusable since it's launch
Not really. Unusable is a very strong word.

Mjolnir just relies on the driver being good. Its mag size and DPS are pretty good. Reliably not needing to reload to kill something is a substantial positive trait. You need to be less shit at driving. Its main issue it that it lacks any versatility at all. The aphelion is extremely versatile and is pretty OP. Vulcan is versatile too, but is essentially a worse aphelion.

>>154732981
No. It really isn't. It is definitely worse than the aphelion, and has a few small bonuses over the vulcan, with several significant downsides. It lags behind if anything.

>>154732981
>DPS barely higher than Gatekeker

Ability to reliably 1 mag anything. Getting to combat prowlers over vanguards.

The shield discounts harasser stealth and allows a reset of sorts on the side of the vanguard. Once stealth is compromised, a CQC harasser is going to have a bad time. Prowlers meanwhile sit in tunnel-vision and can be dispatched before they react. Sure, if they react, you're fucked, but they're easier to get the jump on, and they've no button to press to save themselves.

They really need to make the Mjolnir automatic, up the DPS a little, add in wider splash for bailed crew-killing and mine removal - but for the role of CQC AV, it does it fairly well. It just needs to have a little something more to outweigh the complete lack in versatility it has. Bloom & projectile drop are irrelevant for a weapon that should only be in use when you're bumper to bumper with your foe.

I have, however, encountered the dumb cunt in valkyrie discussion threads where she argues vehemently that, because she can make the valk sort-of work under very specific and rare circumstances, mostly with the help of a dedicated full crew of other people doing everything, that the valkyrie doesn't need major rebalance and redesign to make it a baseline viable vehicle with an actual legitimate purpose.

Again, she needs to shut the fuck up and go away, because that mentality is poisonous.
