Planetside 2 General Discussion

Post by Error » Thu Apr 23, 2015 9:50 am

For talking about PS2 in general.

Discovered today that everyone in the game is very, very aware that you should Shoot the Medic First. Still managed 7 shotgun kills and a bunch of revives and healz (defending one of the sub-Zurvan Amp facilities from the Smurfs).

Loyalty until death!
(And often after.)

I'm encouraged by the news about Sunderer cloaking modules, but I don't think Daybreak is likely to take the steps towards changing some of the basic game mechanics that PS2 really needs to work as it ought to.

Cloaky bangbus?

I could go for that.

@Daybreak I'm unsure if they'll fix what needs fixing... but I'm not holding out hope. Not given SOE's track record.

Perhaps I spoke too soon. One of the debs tweeted that on PTS Esamir you can't spawn at any base not connected to the lattice unless you just died there. That's a good start, I think.

Been playing for a while now. Still not sure why TR is the only faction anyone ever attacks.

Because the Smurfs and the Barneys can't think up a derogatory nickname for the glorious might of the TR and it makes them angry.

They should add a fourth, very orange, faction. Yes... I can see it now...

And you'd probably be called something un-clever and mildly insulting, too.

Oh, well. Come and have a go if you think you're hard enough.

TR is kinda hard to insult. They aren't stupid like NC, nor do they wear spandex like Vanu. They just are everyday space marines. They get up, shoot people, die, and repeat.

Exactly. Superior to Barney spandex, smarter than Smurfs, and with more dakka than both put together.
