I've just come back to the game after six or seven months away and noticed a few things:
1) the game seems to be dead, populations are abysmal
2) Half my features no longer work, I can't activate drift pack, can't cloak at all, can't use some terminals and my character seems to be sprinting at less than the usual standard walk speed. Reboots don't seem to help
3) Holy shit there's no active general? Is the game so fucking dead that there isn't even anyone on Veeky Forums that wants to talk about it?
Should I just uninstall it right now and try to forget?
Nicholas Martinez
The games fine in all my experiences. The problem with /ps2g/ is that people barely talk about the fucking game and instead bitch about how it's "dying" all the fucking time. People bitch and moan, no new blood comes into the thread because they see it's a shitfest and aren't interested in hearing a few vets whine about every little thing like it's the end of the world ("A PLATINUM WEAPON'S PACK? TRULY, GEHENNA IS UPON IS."), they move on to either reddit or they just play the fucking game.
If you want to see a dead game, go play Age of Conan. Otherwise, it goes without saying that you shouldn't take Veeky Forums as an accurate representation of reality. There's a fucking Katawa Shoujo general on here. Do you really think that there are more Katawa Shoujo players than PS2 players, or do you think that maybe PS2 players don't frequent Veeky Forums enough for a thread to be viable?
As for your trouble with the game itself, I'm not sure what to say. It sounds fucky, that's for sure. I'd recommend asking about it on reddit, maybe the forum, or just in-game or to the support.
Lastly, it's Friday, brovolone. People are going to be around. Lots of them. Granted, your server is going to have an effect on what you see.

You. I like you.
Ah, whatever. I was going to take a nap like the lazy piece of shit I am before jumping in-game, but I'll contribute some more.
Alright so I know every weapon is supposed to have -some- use or justification, but I don't understand what the fucking point of the Viper is. /ps2g/, how do make Viper great again.
Colton Clark
>fucking point of the Viper is.
It was ridiculously broken for a while, it still isn't that bad.
>-some- use or justification,
Except for Mjollnir.

Huh. I thought NC used it semi-frequently for closer-range fights? I don't really tank on NC, so I'm not particularly familiar with the weapon in actual combat situations. When I did mess with it in VR a few times it felt like a beefier Fury.
Jonathan Hughes
>a beefier Fury.
It does no damage to infantry. It takes 20 seconds to kill an infiltrator sitting 5m away from your tank
Blake Campbell
One hotspot across two open continents on Cobalt right now.
Sure, game isn't dead.

So did any of the turbofaggots actually kill themselves, or do I have to go do something else until they do?

Lucas Collins
Did something legitimately happen?
I'm a returning Cobalt player and these low pops are really worrying me. Problem is I've put hundreds and hundreds of hours into my fucking character so I'm kind of attached to them.
Is it worth me moving to the american server where my ping will be worse?
pops are always lower on friday. Sometimes i log in and there are no fights at all, and sometimes there are multiple 96+ fights going on.
William Flores
good night guys! pls keep the thread alive until i wake up

I don't typically play Heavy Assault on TR, but I'm considering doing it more lately. Only ever really played Heavy on NC, so how exactly should I be using the CARV? What kind of sight should I be running with?
Isn't Cobalt a lower pop server? Something's just about always going on on Emerald. /shrug

oh that's pretty soon, I guess. 2 months or so. I want funky voices and pretty paintjobs. And camo. And helmet.
Jace Gutierrez
Just give them some money, they need to eat. I keep spending my beer money on beer so I haven't been very nice to them this year.
William Evans
Nah, I'll wait for a sale and buy much cash for low price like the cyka I am. Besides, if I spend my beer money on games, how am I supposed to get drunk?
Gavin Price
noone cares anymore lalu it's over
Dylan Rodriguez
Considering you're so good at squatting, blowjobs for side income. That is unless its your primary income, in which case continue with your plan.
Carter Fisher
>I want funky voices All of them are generic and should have been included as options when creating a character, unless you''re talking about the lolsorandum ones (in which case kys) >pretty paintjobs >And camo lowres pls shoot me signs that drive the abysmal art direction of this game further into the ground >And helmet Ugly overpriced buckets
You're better off paying a sleazy whore to kick you in the dick.
Sebastian Gutierrez
of course this fucking game was going to die. . the fighting and taking bases had no purpose or impact, it was just one big endless 3-way BF2142 team deathmatch...
why would they design an MMO meant for thousands of players when their game design wasn't based around keeping players on the long term? it's such a waste and a disappointment...
Liam Myers
Had a good time on Connery (of all places) yesterday. NC had a hive north of a TR tower. Battle lines and everything.
Jose Reyes
sageing to let this piece of shit general die
Samuel White

Owen Harris
So this is how it's going to be? People are going to try and resurrect /ps2g/ and fail every time? It's like someone parading around a dead corpse. Please stop.
Caleb Long
I will make the Tribes Ascend general
Hunter Scott
What is there to talk about?
Devs haven't fixed glaring flaws that have been in their game for almost 4 years now and we have no idea when the next update is coming.
Jacob Reed
>we dont copy/paste rofl literally every weapon looks the same.
Nice game faggots.

Seems misleading to call this game a "MMOFPS." There are only a couple hundred people online. I keep getting killed by the same lifers every day
Luke White

Eli Rogers
This game is literally the ultimate pubstomp game, what did you expect? If you're getting killed by the same guys all the time, then you need to aim better.
Ryder Brown
Just put 1x and foregrip on it and pull down your mouse when firing. CARV is an ez mode gun
Kevin Rivera
Judging by 8ch thread, they are ded
Kayden Ortiz
they lasted even less time than nogf

Lincoln Flores
Kobalt is a greatly underrated weapon. It's a gauss saw with 50 more RPM and no recoil goddammit
Hudson Price
Mjolnir is absolutely awful in the hands of anyone but highly skilled harasser drivers.
Vanguards lack the mobility to use it, and the average burger can't or hasn't learned the driving style required to make it effective and/or have braindamaged gunners.
If you get the driving style down in a harasser, the Mjolnir is pretty solid for its close range AV role, and nothing else. Where a vulcan and aphelion have passable to good AI/AV, Mjolnir struggles to even kill wounded bailed tank crew.
Basically >buff mjolnir AI abilities and make it full auto >nerf aphelion in general and CQC AV will be in a better place. Mjolnir would probably need more than just that though
Carter Baker
>passable to good AI/AV Meant AI/AA, whoops :-)
The level of damage the turbo-disk does to ESF's is quite ridiculous honestly, but whatever. Fuck airchavs.
Sebastian Bailey
I think mjolnir should be an av shotgun like Canister, with more close range dps than Vulcan but higher damage falloff.
A good FUCK YOU high risk high reward gun. Just like nothing can survive a Prowler at range, nothing should be able to survive a cqc with a Vannie. An assymetrical balance.
This will never happen ofc, because devs listen to whiny retards on reddit, so we get things like Mjolnir - crap that has barely more dps than Gatekeeper at 5m and 20m effective range. The fact that it has that stupid COF bloom for no reason makes it even more retarded
Carson Long
I think the main merits of the Mjolnir (at least from a harasser perspective) is that #1, you've enough ammunition to reliably 1 mag sunderers, and comfortably 1 mag anything else too, while with the others there's risk of needing to reload.
#2, you don't need to deal with vanguards. The shield complicates harasser engagements significantly. It's much easier to surprise and beat a prowler / magrider than it is a vanguard, in my eyes at least.
It's a mediocre gun in a bad place, but it'll never get fixed - just like the PPA/Aphelion/Gatekeeper.
James Mitchell
fuck debris
Christopher Harris
>Vulcan is a better basilisk with melt-you DPS >Gatekeeper is a render range nightmare >Sauron hits what it aims at >Aphelion is a gatekeeper clone >Enforcer is a Sauron with fuckloads of drop and a slow projectile speed, it also has a funky reload that ensures the gun won't fire when you need it (thanks wrel) >Mjolnir is so band I won't elaborate Bassie is the best NC AV.
Juan Hill
Halberd is if you know how to aim. I wish NC av wasn't so terrible. Meanwhile Malorne the ex dev shitter cries on reddit about TR not having good long range av lol
