/ps2g/ - Planetside 2 General

What are you? some kind of meme teacher?

>tfw you built the perfect base and need people to populate it

p-please come hang out with me. it won't take long

I don't hang out with shiTRs

b-but I have bunkers and sky shields

>wahh i have my shields so the big bad aircraft cant hurt me ;_;
construction lmao

2 drink minimum??

t. butthurt airchav

>Needing alcohol to cope with life

mad as fuck airbaby

here's how I look at it: indar will eventually suck again. instead of having to cap bases to get vp points on the other continent, you put a HIVE right next to the warpgate to cap it quicker and have a decent battle

just my two cents

>implying I have a life to cope with

lmao jokes on u nerd i'm actually pathetic

Is this you

thats me

>Esamir skybox renders on Hossin
>go screenshotting
>forget half my binds
>forget to turn flora on
>the fucking motion spotter "hurr you can't deploy this here" message doesn't count as part of the HUD and doesn't turn off with everything else

What.

Get cucked Rateilika

so I main LA and engi and I have grown to hate infiltrators with a passion

I made a NC character and bought the Rebel
I tried out infiltrator with stalker cloak and it's amazing
averaging a 4k/d and 20% hsr
I have become what I hate
inb4 shitter

yes also no VS allowed so please keep your waifus at home ok thank you

Sshhh. Only ridiculous moon rays now.

>please keep your waifus at home

>wahh i have my shields so nothing can hurt me or my aimbot turret ;_;
fixed

Dual Gorgons Y/N? I mostly play vs infantry and have 2 cosmos, but now that I've tested Gorgons it seems like they're on par with Cosmos vs infantry and are good against ground and air vehicles, as well. Do Gorgons really have no disadvantages?

lol

CONSTRUCTION SAVED THE GAME
ALL CONTINENTS NOW HAVE A QUEUE BECAUSE SO MANY NEW PLAYERS
I SUBSCRIBED AND BOUGHT 10000 DBC JUST TO APPRECIATE
PRAISE WREL

EVERYONE WHO DISAGREES WILL GET LE DOWNBOAT

Are you going to keep doing this for the entire thread
We get it, you don't like the construction system. That doesn't mean you have to shitpost all the fucking time.

guys i'm having fun
i don't know how to deal with this

The only option is suicide

uninstall immediately
DO NOT WASTE TIME

>lol
How about you answer my question instead.

lol

lol

still shooting down air plebs all day long

gotta love that update

So what do you think about these upcoming changes /ps2g/?
>Active Hive Shield
>Increased resist for resist type 3 (Direct damage of Furys, Bullbogs, ect) to 75 from 60

>Increased resist for resist type 11 (C4) to -25 from -100
>Increased resist for resist type 34 (Direct damage of Decimator) to 25 from 0

I personally think it's a good idea, because I have seen too many bases go down by just our platoon pulling a full gal or 2, driving directly into the HIVE, and putting as much c4 as possible on it.

if you look at the stats, gorgons have the lowest dps out of all the max guns, so theres not really much point in using them unless you want to pester tanks and aircraft. they are jack of all trades weapons in the sense that they suck at everything, but at least they can do everything. they are basilisks on a max.

so i mean, do you want to shoot at tanks with a machine gun, y/n?

>they are basilisks on a max.

But isn't that pretty good? Considering that the specialized AI weapons aren't that much better against infantry?

>tfw instead of just having 3 or 4 different damage resistance levels applied universally, planetside 2 was designed so that every singe weapon in deals different damage depending on what its hitting

why

in the name of god

would you make a game like that

it must be a nightmare to make balance changes

>mfw we took all the seven cores on Indar

you only need a valkyrie with 2 c4 fairies and a stalker with an memesary

The specialized ai weapons actually take out infantry much faster, the gorgons have a super wide spread (more than the cosmos). They are AV weapons which trade the effectiveness of dedicated AV weapons for the ability to reliably hit aircraft and harassers, and also to better deal with infantry if some of them get in your face unexpectedly.

Been out for a month, anything new?
Was the new pistol nerfed yet?
Can i build buildings now?

is dual heavy cycler shit on TR maxes? I'm torn between that and the NS-15 (I play all 3 factions like a cunt)

yes

heavy cyclers are objectively worse weapons than onslaughts and there is no reason to use them ever

also they look like ass

yes
that pistol with the lowest in class damage output? no
yes

Actually that probably makes balance changes easier
You only have to worry about the single damage type if one weapon is causing issues, rather then try and adjust the entire thing
Why don't you read the OP
Construction is out nigga

Why are bunkers so fragile and useless and shit

fortifications were the part I was looking forward to most but you never get them used as part of an actual infantry fight because the turrets are the only things that matter

>Every post criticizing construction must be from the same guy
>there can't possibly be more than one person disliking construction
>anyone who isn't interested in construction must be bad at the game
>better call him a shitter
Sugoi /ps2g/-kun!

>Every post with the same writing style criticizing construction must be from the same guy
Fixed that for you

So, whst is a good magrider loadout?

I'm currently sick of playing almost exclusively infantry and want a little change.

I'm saving for the Saron, don't know if I should buy the HE or AP main gun. Right now using Rival chassis and magburner

>same writing style
That was my only post in this thread until now, fuccboi

Don't you have an impenetrable irrelevant base to defend?

Magboost - max this out first
Stealth - you can't kill enemy MBTs if you don't get the drop on them, sometimes you can't even then. Stealth is mandatory to get that chance
Chassis depends, I use rival to get to places and stick to vertical walls a shoot down

FPC unless you're retarded
Saron if your gunners are randoms
Halberd for long range, Aphelion for short range, with good gunners respectively.
Walker or Kobalt can be interesting if you're (1/2).

>go to the far northwest corner of indar, deep in TR territory
>drop a sundy and go resource hunting
>come back and the base expanded massivly, a good 12 dudes running about building
>drop a hive
>the TR spot us and bring down the hammer
>generate hella VP and fight off a 12-24 vs 48-96
>made a massive fight happen in the middle of fucking nowhere
this base shit is the best fucking thing ever

your KD is less than 5

What's the difference between 167 and 143?

24

167 weapons kill in 3 headshots within max damage range. 143 weapons take 4

>that lovely feeling when the sunderer in the basement of a biolab fight is yours and everyone's spawning in it nonstop

Oh. It's just bullet damage. That makes sense.

havent played in a couple of years
is the game still fun ?
am i gonna get jewed for all my shekels to get guns ?

its still P2W

yes the game is fun, go play it nigger, it's weeked after a big patch

I want to be a good NC Infiltrator.

What should I aim for in terms of things to buy?

a dick

>I want to be a good NC Infiltrator.
>What should I aim for in terms of things to buy?

noose

Work on your agressive infiltration, that is clearing open battlefields and moving around when your allies can't because they have no cover.
>SAS-R with 3.4x if you REALLY want to boltshit
>Vandal but meh I don't like it much
>Stalker because it's the only long range auto weapon you get and can be quite useful when mastered
>EMPs are stupidly OP so get them
The point is to clean enemy nests behind ridges and deep cover from behind to allow your allies to move forward and get the battle going.
You'll die a lot.
also there are no good infiltrators, play a real class :^)

Connery? I was busy being the backbone of the massive TR defense south of Dahaka, a skyshield on a downward slope is insanely powerful when you put turrets under it

things for a useful class

>saw LordMandalore building a base
NOGF revival?

Where's Gustavo, he would love this shit

probably asking maggie for nudes

Soo did they fix the game?

He was talking with some members in his video comments about maybe getting it back together but it wasn't clear if it would be for a night or an ongoing thing

So, what are the "recommended" VS LMGs, ARs and Carbines?

I certed the essentials out and need advice on the guns now

...

>I'm bad at FPS games so I have to farm people with a flying cancer

Lmao

How do I git gud with a scythe?
Aside from getting cancer and killing myself, I mean. I figure those occur naturally.

>I'm bad at AA and let the flying cancer farm me

Rofl

Is there a way to get the pheonix glitch consistent or is just a random lag thing?

Find enlightment in your asshole

starters are all good. if you feel like you're gud you can upgrade to the burst carbine and AR

I haven't played for a year or so and that meme is still alive.
That's dedication.
Or autism

What's that thing you do at like 18 seconds where you flip sideways but keep flying forwards?

I just rolled it sideways to give the belly gun an angle behind me. The liberator holds momentum pretty well and lets you fly forward for a little bit before it starts to drop.

>me and a friend both get AV turret deployables, go find a spot decently far away from a tank line and set up behind a ridge with a repair sundy
>bother them

Pretty entertaining, if you build an AI module does it constantly drain from a nearby solo / does it require a nearby silo?

Neet. I was bellygunning in a pub earlier and it feels like it's kind of a shit to aim, but I suspect that was me being bad.

Aim better.
Or get a job.
