It's just a meme. KDR is highly dependant on how often you play in a squad with medics, use vehicles etc. If KDR wasn't a thing people might play slightly less like pricks (KDR padding bolters shooting at people 2 hexes away) but it's too late for that.

>>173419821
Underboss is better in all scenarios except :
>OHK a shitfiltrator
>Plinking at long range (In which case they're both worthless anyway)

Underboss is more accurate, higher DPS, faster reload, less recoil, less report, faster switch.

>>173419990
>using the underbitch

there's a reason it's designed to fit in a handbag you effeminite faggot.

also the commish is 100% superior and that is even more so since they added pistol scopes.

>>173419821
>>173419990
Adding these pistols was a mistake. Having a commonpool best in slot pistol that's good enough to be a primary was a retarded idea. Although they are pretty fun to use and look good to boot.

>>173412667
Emissary or Commish, I like the Emissary more, because It's less punishing when you miss and I'm a shitter when it comes to infantry combat. I kill lotsa heavies and others with my Emissary when I lugging around an archer, my usual vehicle driving loadout.

Really all the NC sidearms are good though.
Mag-shoat is GOAT, you can rekt anyone with it if you're quick on the trigger and accurate.
Rebel is good if you can headshot.
Desperado is good if you're not so good at headshotting.
Magscatter a meme, it doesnt actually exist.

Underboss doesnt have to range to be a pocket primary.

If you git gud with the commy you can fight anything at all, even VS shield heavies with their IWIN lmgs.

Like I said though I prefer the Emissary, it's a slightly shitty SMG with a short mag, but I kill many mans with it, its not excellent, but its flexible, and its good enough.

>>173420092
Are you braindamaged?

I just pointed out the scenarios where the Commish is better than the Underboss and it is legitimately ONLY blamming infiltrators and long range plinking, in all other scenarios the underboss is mechanically and mathematically superior.

Even face to face the underboss will out-DPS the commish.

Who gives a shit what it looks like? The commissioner doesn't look good either, it is fucking nerf gun painted black and silver.

>>173420378
all irrelevant because in actual gameplay having a huge upfront hit is more useful, especially on a sidearm when you are likely to be fighting wounded enemies

if you weren't bad you'd have some self awareness while playing and you'd realise that every mouse click interferes with your aim, spamming underbeta shots is counterproductive which leads to the commish being better real world DPS, even moreso at longer ranges with drop off

>>173420710
You know what, okay. You're right, the commish is better. Congratulations.
I say this because if the math doesn't change your mind then nothing will and continuing to argue only lowers me to your level.

>>173419990
Wrong.
As a primary, the Underboss is better, but that's about it.
You point out DPS, and you're right, but unless you're using it as a primary, in most cases your event will almost be damaged. In that case, DPS is meaningless, and you should favour the Commissioner because of its higher alpha damage.

>>173420846
Burst vs dps. Alphadamage / finisher -> burst.

>>173420846
>muh DPS

>getting a warning for making last thread
wew

>>173420198
Exactly my thought.
I also think Infils shouldn't be allowed to use anything but sniper and scout rifles, there should be MAX HP recharge stations inside spawn rooms while it shouldn't be possible to attack anything outside of spawn room shields from inside, there need to be more options to enter and exit spawn rooms and areas inside bases in general and Light Assault's jetpacks are disappointing, except for the drifter one that actually does it's job, the others are too weak to do the job they're supposed to do compared to how well the drifter performs, also future rocket launchers sure suck (aiming down sights for ballistic missiles... okay...).

>>173427526
>I also think Infils shouldn't be allowed to use anything but sniper and scout rifles
I also think you should kill yourself

>>173429153
*as main weapons only, of course. Didn't mean that as restriction for -pistols or -melee. Scout rifles are adequately weak for a class with stealth, sensors and access to AI mines. Granting infils access to other automatic weapons than scout rifles devaluates the automatic scout rifles, pistols and melee choices because the other automatic weapons are mostly better.

>>173430428
>infiltrator
>should be relegated to medium (rare) and long (very common) range

>>173427485
why

listen here faggots
the way to fix infilth is to make them choose between invisibility OR shields
and make shield equally strong on head and rest of the body
there's no fucking reason for a shield to be weaker on the head, unlike the rest of the body

Wrong.

Infil would only lose these:

TR: Armistice / Hailstorm / Shuriken
NC: Cyclone / Blitz / Tempest
VS: Eridani / Sirius / Skorpios
NS: NS-7 PDW / MKV Suppressed

...but keep SOAS / Stalker / Artemis / Tomoe as full auto weapons.

Infils wouldn't lose any effectiveness in close combat due to knifes and pistols still being available and long range due to sniper rifles of all sorts still being available as they wouldn't be affected by what my idea. Just the uncloak + unload mag infils would effectively receive an ammo reduction as automatic scout rifles have 22-24 mag size compared to 35-50 mag size on SMGs and MPs.

As a result of player killing being harder now for sneaking stealth classes they'd either learn to pick their fights better, to position themselves better, to use additional tools or just use the other weapon options instead of SMGs and MPs being the easymode to go for, devaluating the other options. Helps brining the other gameplay options in the game and to vary the gameplay more.

>>173404437

>>173402008
ps2g already gets along and has an outfit, it's [N] on emerald TR

>>173435471
I didn't test it but it was claimed that headshots bypass protection effects due to armor / HA shield being used.
It was also claimed that armor protection affects the regular shield in terms of damage reduction.

So if you've got 20% nanoweave armor it should reduce the damage taken by shield- and health bar by 20% unless it's a headshot. On top of that weapons have a 1.5 to 2.0x damage multiplier on headshots so headshots are heavily rewarded.

Infils have different stages of invisibility while stealthed.
Running: Seen 20-35m away.
Walking: Less visible.
Crouching: Almost invisible.
Being hit causes the shield flicker effect unless the chameleon module is used (don't know whether or not th enemy receives a hit marker with that, though).
Not moving adds even more stealth so that you're almost invisible while crouching and not moving.

Using stealth also drops the "spotted" status which would otherwise reveal you on the enemy minimap, marking you as "shoot that guy" target.

Try to attack enemies from the side or back and aim for the chest (if having trouble with aiming or head), remember that stealth on / off makes noise, giving away your position to enemies near enough that pay attention. Try partially covered positions or move fast and not linear if there are none.

Why do we have two implant slots? Someone explain werl's reasoning. Is it membership only?

>>173444346
the previous implant system was ignored by many people, mainly because "whatever, it's not a big deal" (lol)
by having two implant slots, and seeing the new implant effects and how there are many pairs that synergize well, werly actually made an astonishingly good decision, business-wise.

Good night!

>>173419346
Yes!

PS1's implant system was perfectly sensible; you had a store of personal energy which implants would draw from, more powerful effects would draw more energy and thus could be sustained for less time, this was a direct balancing mechanic.

PS2's old implant system was retarded. In a similar vein to PS1 you had an energy storage but this was uncapped and EXTREMELY LARGE, meaning that the cost of varying power of implants was considered one of two things:

Cheap enough so as to be inconsequential

or

Expensive enough to ignore the system altogether.

This resulted in the implant system in its entirety being ignored by the majority of the playerbase and used to increase the snowball effect of the top 20% of players.

PS2's NEW implant system is still fucking retarded. They've done away with the concept of energy all together (Remember, this was a major balancing mechanic) , effectively lowering the barrier to entry (No more players avoiding using them for fear of "using up" all their energy) but introduced an entirely new factor of retardery in making the way you obtain them completely nonsensical (A lottery), expensive AND giving old players a huge advantage on top with the amount of ISO4 their old implants converted into. So now there's no individual balancing system between implants except for difficult of obtaining them and upgrading them, which older players have an advantage in, thusly returning us to the snowball problem.

I am convinced that nobody who works on PS2 has ever played it.

I just bought two deluxe implant packs, that's a total of 18 implants.

Would you like to know what implants I got?

Ammo printer
Sweeper
Safeguard

I got those three implants across 18 chances. That's is.

I already had those too so in EIGHTEEN FUCKING CHANCES I DIDN'T GET A SINGLE NEW FUCKING IMPLANT.

I just turned 1500 CERTS into 450 ISO-4.

That is fucking bullshit, i'm sorry, there's no other fucking way to sum that up. I just paid 1500 certs for a giant "FUCK YOU FAG" on my screen.

>>173443995
Bolter inf = bolt action rifle infiltrator ?
If used on mid to high range: Working as intended.
If used on close range and within melee range to achieve headshots / knife combos: Well they could always fix that issue by making sniper rifles deal less damage within a certain minimum range, increasing until proper range is reached, instead of just making them inaccurate with hipfire. Once a set minimum range is achieved (let's say 50m; depending on weapon) full damage potential is restored up to the point where the damage will drop again because of too high range.

Not such an issue if balanced with care. Also that's only half a counter argument considering pistol + knife combos along with 2-3 pistol headshot kills are already possible and lag damage aka alphadamage is a thing.

The real issue behind your reasoning might rather be the incredibly low time to kill in this game, granting no time to react sometimes.

Different anon but the TTK in PlanetSide2 is glacial compared to every other popular shooter right now

>>173490947
The real TTK is long enough for a good player to react, which is why i like infantry play in PS2 so much.

Boltshitting is 0 TTK with your opponent being completely invisible with no delay on the clientside cloak. I still have no fucking idea why boltshitting exists in its current state, and it even got buffed a few times.

>>173495661
I got it on my VS dildo character (the one I play the least ofcourse). I think I've spent 10k certs or so total on implant boxes and I don't have a single battlehardened on ANY of my chars, but I'm atleast glad I got to try the catlike a bit. Really motivated in getting it for my other characters now...pray for RNG I guess.

>>173512485
If you're serious then you could tell us what class you usually play, and what do you usually die to?

It's more gamesense than aim that you need imo. Know where enemies are gonna come out from and pre-aim there. If you can land some headshots, then even better. Know when to hide behind cover to regen instead of trying to get that one last kill. Spray your weapon at the warpgate to learn how to better control your recoil in real action. You can do it anon!

everything? not usually snipers or vehicles though. Just infantry.

>>173513380
As medic try to stand in your shield bubble radius when engaging enemies, you can peek-a-boo kill enemies like this around walls and corners too. Or if you use the AoE heal, activate it just on yourself when you're fighting to give you that extra boost. You should run maxed flak armor or nanoweave, nanoweave lets you win infantry duels you could've otherwise lost. Try to make sure you're playing at a mostly consistent 60fps, it'll help your consistency a lot. And learn the recoil pattern it really helps.

Engineer is perhaps the weakest infantry class in general but try to stick around friendly MAX units and shoot mans when they don't need repairing, you should almost always run flak on engineer since the MAX units and vehicles attract explosives.

Honestly base knowledge and positioning in fights is a huge part of your success. You'll pick up on that just by playing the game more.

that little time in LA
how can you not play the most creative, fun and less ripetitive infantry class?

>>173512485
Ahead of everything: Go to VR training, train headshots with the weapons you're currently using while standing still and while A-D moving, with occasional crouch move added. Also try light assault, drifter and carbine while drifting. For heavy assault get a feeling for the ballistic missiles and lock-on time of lock-on launchers.

Learn A-D movement during combat.
Don't fight when outnumbered unless you can actually achieve anything. Check high up areas for snipers and light assault.
Move to places that don't allow the enemies to attack you from all sides and use cover whenever possible.
Turn around every now and then.
Don't use obvious paths if possible.
Be the one placing a motion spotter and using sensor darts if no one has done that yet.
Check the large map for combat areas or enemy presence.
Try to scout enemy vehicles using the infiltrator, less chance of being killed (but remember to still use cover as well as that enemies hear you cloaking / uncloaking).
Don't try to fight vehicles using rocket launchers, they'll just retreat, repair and reappear. C4, Tank mines, aircraft or other counter vehicles are the answer.
Enemies typically move from spawners to a goal so try to flank them, shoot them in the back and attack from high up but don't start pointless fights alerting multiple enemies nearby.
Use defense turrets whenever useful, may be C4'ed or hacked though due to lack of support / motion spotters / sensor darts / anti infantry mines.
Try to use anti tank mines on roads and Sunderer positions enemies will most likely use. Same goes for anti infantry mines to secure positions against infantry, somewhat at least.

I wrote spawners because I meant spawners of all kinds, genious.
>Nooo. I will apply my pattern of thought for you. I MUST match.
Fucking mental Gollum.

To add more:
Watch out for anti infantry mines around entrances and corners, also for anti vehicle mines on stairs if in a MAX suit.
Most people use low zoom scopes because they allow to control recoil better, don't zoom in so much that view of the rest of what's going on ist lost and the lower the zoom the faster the process of aiming is completed, allowing you to actually shoot at the enemy.
If you're out of ammo on your main weapon but still in combat with the enemy don't reload the main weapon but instead switch to your pistol and attack with it.
Cert into EMP grenades with the infiltrator and equip them. They enable you to easily get rid of multiple enemy mines inside a structure, to uncloak other infiltrators sneaking around, drop heavy shields, destroy spawn beacons and motion spotters at hard to reach places and disable the enemy UI for some time. Pretty damn useful.
The first shot on many weapon is pixel accurate if aiming down sights. Using single shots on a LMG allows you to pretty accurately hit enemies at longer distances.
The engineer's Archer is THE weapon to fight MAX units on range but infil headshots do pretty well too if you can land multiple.
Engineer's turret against vehicles is pretty powerful and can also oneshot infantry.
When repairing vehicles watch the map to not get run over by allies and place yourself so that the vehicle won't run you over when driving straight back. You can also use your engineer turret for cover while repairing.
Use your knife swing to finish enemies that have no shields anymore in close combat. Saves time, prevents taking more damage.
Take a look at the passive class abilities, sometimes there are extra options that are missing in the rest of the UI. Cert all the *costs 1-20 Cert* things you're be using. No big loss for a starter.

step one: find a gun you like to use
i like to use the T7 mcg because it has huge mag and high rate of fire and now no cof bloom. the MSW-R is superior for hipfire and is more versatile than the mcg but i have my preference and i got my ass kicked enough to use the gun breddy gud if i say so myself
my k/d ratio for this year is about 4
but my over all k/d ratio is about 1.8

step 2: learn to find fun fights
don't feel to bad if your faction is getting fucked, sometimes there's nothing you can do and when it gets bad just fuck off and either get off the game or find another fight. don't be one of those assholes who either sits in the spawn rooms or gets farmed into oblivion.
step 3: step out of your comfort zone
when you get one thing down and can hold your own in a fight, why not try something new ?
you will die allot but that's the only way to become those guys who rock shit without cheating,

>>173534973
I've actually headshot killed quite a few infils trying to snipe me using single shots. Obivously not such a good idea for weapons used on mid to close range (Lynx and such, shotguns, whatever else doesn't match), which is why I wrote "most". LMGs can single fire pretty damn accurate. Go to VR training, pick a 200m distance target and try it. Bullet drop is the only issue, otherwise damn accurate.

>>173535130
Actually my point is: Pick whatever is most useful instead of sticking to one class.
The infil sensor coverage is only obligatory because most infils absolutely fail to use any sensor tools most of the time. Most often the sniper playing ones also don't even spot-report any enemy vehicles, not even while reloading, nearly not supporting the team at all. Overall it's better if someone provides the team with sensor data instead of no one doing that. It's pure idiocy leading to this need. The others who already play the class could do the same, they just don't do it most often, creating new chances and options for the enemies due to being undetected. As for EMP: Since no other class than an infil can use an EMP there's no choice. The EMP is a great breach grenade, mine / spawn beacon / motion spotter removing tool as it works even through walls.

Yeah, yeah bla bla kill yourself, thanks. We already had that. Fuck you too and good day.

>>173540680

It's not about fairness, you fucking retard, it's about consistency.
If you look at players and their stats, "every weapon mushed together and averaged out" is a significantly worse indicator than "standard rifles and not much more". There's also shotgun, sniper, heavy and light ground vehicle and aircraft specific stats, for this exact purpose.
Coincidentally, "standard rifles and not much more" turns out to be pretty much what most weapons in an average FPS looks like, and therefore ends up as a good way (if you disregard the padding phenomenon, and also that some people really don't care about KDR and just love rushing a full room all alone) to quantify a player's infantry skill. Snipers and shotguns etc. aren't infantry sanctioned because of how different their mechanics (and therefore the statistics they generate) are from "standard rifles and not much more".

But here's the kicker: the simple fact that you're this butthurt about IVI KDR, and that you shitpost about it without knowing what it actually means, shows you're pretty fucking bad.

At this rate no, while there's been some 'interesting' occurrences game-wise so far the threads have mostly turned into a sad circle of totally unrelated, literal garbage-posting. The fact that no one even puts pastebins or any sort of relevant info in the OP anymore is enough of a sign, that's /sc2/ level nonsense.

post stats?

Speaking of stats, what exactly does the 'Padding' field on DA mean for an individual weapon?

>>173575121
the KD difference between the weapon KD and your actual KD

>>173575165
Actual K/D just when you have that weapon equipped or overall lifetime K/D? If it's the latter that seems like any weapon you use once you stop sucking will have a high padding stat.

Good morning my dear memers! :3

Any good aussie TR outfits?

and guide to making good amount of certs?

>>173587859
dualbox with VM or another machine, use autohotkey to fire one bullet on one account and drop ammo on the one you want certs on. few hundred thousand certs a week if you do it 24/7, daybreak doesn't seem to care

>>173587859
no
also, play on other servers if you're that one in a hundred australians that has a good connection

also aim better
