I'm not sure it's even possible to be killed that fast. That's a death every 4.54 seconds. Revives with a maxed-out medigun take 4 seconds, so TTK + downtime (lag, reflexes, etc) would have to be less than 0.54 seconds, and that would be hard.
Artistic liberty, and exaggeration for comedic purposes.
How about 3/172 then?

That's possible. I was 6/124 after my second day.

I think I got my K/D up to 0.5, once.

This is a case where practice really does make perfect. It's been very interesting to see my stats steadily improve as I've gotten better at the game. The first couple of days/weeks are fairly soul-crushing, but once you're past that you just have to stick with it and everything improves.

You killed someone?
You must be doing better than me
I might rig it up to a PS3 controller, been playing CoD with that for years so I can at least aim properly.

It's being released for the PS4 in the next couple of months. You'd have an awful time trying to use a controller on a server full of people with keyboards anyway. Even a mediocre player with a keyboard and mouse will smash top-level players with controllers. And of course there's no aim assist in Planetside, because with a PC you don't need it, but you definitely do with a controller. They're going to have separate servers for PS4 and PC players because of it. This is not the good idea it might have seemed.
Gaaak, 600 members. Holy zergfits, Batman! How many people do you usually have online at once?
EDIT: Holy christ on a popsicle stick, that's an even bigger outfit than ODAM. There's no way I could stand that.

I would like to join in this, I am still in the outfit. Of course that's if jedi will have anything to do with me.

Oh believe me, if I use the keyboard and mouse any old retard will smash me, and all the games I use that controller for don't have aim assist either.
But for flying it would definitely be better.

I have an outfit called The Obin on Waterson TR. Tiel and hyperlite are members. Others are welcome to join, I guess, but we don't actually do anything. I think I fought with hyperlite and Tiel once each, and maybe Pat once? But I don't think we ever got all of us together, and I've been the only one who still plays for a while now.

Usually there's about 2 squads up all the time but during OPs time we can get up to two platoons.

I cannot figure out how to join an outfit. As for the not doing anything, maybe Saturday afternoon we could do game night on ps2?

I may actually have to invite you. I dunno. Tell me your username and the next time I'm online I'll add you (we might have to be online at the same time? I vaguely remember having some trouble getting Tiel and hyperlite into the outfit, but it's been a while so I don't remember what the trouble was).
