VPs have let me see parts of the continents I forgot/didn't even know existed, but they're not a big enough change to matter in the long run.

It's a garbage system just back-ported from A1DZ.

H1Z1. It has a base building system with resources and placement and shit, and given it runs on the same engine it's probably ported to PS2 near 1:1. Expect to see menu strings for the ANT still refer to zombies.

It's the most profitable game Smedley ever made, despite a ridiculous hacker problem, all the same network issues as PS2, and people somehow not being fucking tired of zombies by now.

Apparently the most popular mode people play is a Battle Royale thing that doesn't even have fucking zombies. It's just PS2 without teams.

And it fucking prints money. PRINTS IT.
>>
>>121548228
Zombie survival games print money. Doesn't matter how bad they are. Day Z is a perfect example.
>>
>>121548450
But it's not even a zombie survival game anymore! I swung by the subreddit for kicks and it's nothing but people bitching about how any and all development has been focused on the PvP Battle Royale mode and no one plays zombie survival at all and the devs haven't done anything with it in ages.

It's hilarious to think that PS2 will survive- in a form- longer than that game despite Smeddler the Peddler pulling all our funding and manpower to fund his shitty zombie game.

There really is something so fucked up with medkits.

Earlier when I was playing, there was a beetlejuice shitter who chugged 4 in a row, and even though 5+ of our guys were shooting him, he got away completely unscathed. He should've been dead 10x over. I don't get why they don't just enforce a 1 or 2 second delay on re-using medkits, like there is on throwing down ammo packs or regen fields. Such a simple thing would remedy so much bullshit.

There's invulnerability frames, so if the medkits are chugged at just the right times, it'll actually completely negate damage.

You can medkit chug through lethal water on hossin and amerish.

CARV has 0.48 horizontal tolerance, no angled recoil, lower FSM, 100 round cllips, more ammo in reserve. The only downsides are worse hipfire, longer reloads and that it doesn't look like an AK.

I guess since it's only slightly better than the betelgeuse, and the betelgeuse isn't overpowered either, this can still make sense to their delusional, dildo-addled brains.

>>
>>121571530
No. Angle affects your vertical recoil, horizontal always does its random jitter perpendicular to vertical recoil. So you are just compensating vertical recoil at an angle.

There's more to it. Most angled recoil guns have angle variance, for example 15-19 degree. Each burst you make will have a different angle between those two values, so it's just another RNG factor for inaccuracy.
>>
>>121571565

halp
>>
>>121571695
And because horizontal recoil is something you can't really compensate, it's easier to have the vertical axis solely for compensating recoil, and horizontal for tracking ADADAD. If there's an angle, the random horizontal jitter also affects the vertical component, and thus how much you have to pull down your mouse.
>>
>>121573136
>why do i even keep playing
Because the only alternatives are CS:GO casualfest with even more russkies than PS2, and Battlefront that's just a very shitty Battlefield game.
>>
>>121573467

Also if you are in EU, battlefield 4 servers are 70% ruskies. From fucking 6. 00 24.00. I swear to God Russians don't fucking work, but instead they all play video games all day every day.

Of course, but most of them have a fuckton of time in AI prowlers or mossies.
At the height of the Bansheepocalypse, every single 24v24 fight would have at least 3 INI mossies.
What I'm saying is, they have overly inflated KDRs by vehicle farming, and then brag about being elite; for example, my main's infantry KDR is 4.6, and total KDR is 5.1.

Of NC's ESF noseguns, Kestrel gets the most air to air kills, and airhammer the least. Anyone who thinks the AH is particularly OP against aircraft is a moron.
>>
>>121592362
i think what people whine about is the airhammer is more useful for A2A than the other faction AI guns

>>121584154
30 KDR as infantry is impossible unless you are a cheater, exploiter or spawnroom warrior. At least if you want more than 0.3 KPM. But if he's that good, why is he not a professional CS:GO or Quake Live player?

Wow you're right it's not like ESFs can get close to things or are really fucking manoeuvrable or anything.
>>
>>121592362
I wonder why. it would almost seem like the kestrel doesn't get used in equal parts to kill infantry, ground vehicles and air vehicles, but rather mainly kill air vehicles. I wonder why it would get comparatively more air kills
>>
>>121592051
The AH isn't as potent at AI as the other faction's a2g noseguns. It can't kill clumps of infantry for shit, you've got to aim at one at a time and kill them individually. It also has very short range if you're hoping to kill a single infantry in less than five shots, making AH reavers particularly vulnerable to dumbfire rockets, av turrets, and tank main cannons. I think it is a fair trade that the AH is an effective a2a weapon, all things considered.

Aim with a shotgun?

>It also has very short range if you're hoping to kill a single infantry in less than five shots
Longer than the Banshee that has trouble killing one guy with 47 shots

>making AH reavers particularly vulnerable to dumbfire rockets, av turrets, and tank main cannons
Not when you do quick diving attacks. AV turrets don't do much damage even if they hit, and the only tank that is a threat to aircraft is the NC one.

considering that the AH rivals the LPPA in number of kills and KPH, but wastly outscoring it it in AKPU and AKPH the stats are showing that the AH is simply the best AI nosegun against AI too as it spends less of the total time hunting infantry but still reaches similar KPH as the LPPA.

>>121594471
I'm willing to bet the AH has comparable kph to the ppa specifically because it also gets a good amount of a2a kills. It's the banshee that's weak of the three.
>>
>>121595373
if you'd tried flying you would know that getting A2A kills is slow as shit compared to killing infantry, even with the dedicated A2A weapons. so it's the opposite. the AH actually gets higher KPH than the LPPA when used against infantry, but it's also used agains air which pulls its KPH down

what optics do you use on your ESF nosegun? zoom or thermal?
>>
>>121594781
Do you even play NC? Much of what you said seems false to me. Yes you have to aim with a shotgun. The individual pellets do very little damage, you have to hit directly with most of them to kill in two shots, and nearly all of them to kill in one shot. This is all provided you're very close to the ground, otherwise the pellet spread is too large to kill without expending most of the magazine on one dude, the magazine being 9 shots assuming you put like 1200 certs into the mag size upgrade.
>>
>>121595373
>>121595980
Figuring this out is as simple as subtracting the vehicle kill per hour and aircraft kph from the total kph stats.

Which gives us:
Banshee: 23.3 infantry kph
LPPA: 41.95 infantry kph
AH: 37.5 infantry kph

I never see TR or NC using hornets. Only VS. It's partly because LPPA makes rocket pods redundant, but also because it's easier to aim with Scythe hornets because they aren't launched off-center like with Mossie or Reaver.

>>121597867
If kph is only infantry kills then it still disproves the assertion that the AH is killing more infantry than the LPPA

Why is there such a widespread belief that the only people whose opinions matter on balance are the 100 best players across all servers?

Apparently if you don't have 40% HSR and Acc or better, you're a shitter who can't even play the game.

Does nobody else see a problem with balancing the game based only on input from 0.0001% of the playerbase?

To be quite honest, especially from a financial point of view, tackling the issues that most of the playerbase runs into seems like a much better bang for your buck than listening to a bunch of egotistic tryhards who only care about their stats.

The LPPA is, in fact, killing more.

I don't know where you get your stats from, but you have to be willfully blind not to see that there is, in fact, a small difference in kph between the LPPA and AH, and a significant difference in BR100 kph between the LPPA and AH.

You can't just handwave, "oh they're basically the same" after claiming the AH got more infantry kills than the LPPA, when you are in fact objectively wrong about both.

That's correct.

Problem is they aren't balancing like that, if they did screenshake would be gone and all MAX/AI nosegun/HE tank shitters banned.

Yes my fellow underpowered brothers! Pre nerf banshee was fine, it was only getting more kills thanks to our 1337 piloting skill achieved by playing Microsoft Flight Simulator professionally.

In fact i think we need more skill based weapons like AI noseguns.
>>
>>121599657
Because we don't want another Call of Duty with artificially low skillcap. There are enough of those already. High skill cap attracts competitive gamers, and alive competitive scene attracts even more players. Large enough scene and you will start to see professional tournaments. See top CS:GO players. They are drowning in money and pussy. That's why so many people take CS:GO fucking seriously. This game could have been BIG if SOE had marketed it properly.

MS Flight Simulator and Wing Commander were the first video games I ever played. That was when I was 3 or 4 years old. Flying a Banshee+AB pod Mossie was the most fun thing in Planetside, and then they took it away. All because a few pilots, who happened to TR, were just dunking too many people. If we had played VS or NC instead, we would have seen PPA or Airhammer nerfs.

VS are pure cancer so fighting them isn't fun. If a fight is ever remotely even they'll just spam maxes/vehicles or dump fifty platoons of dapp on it so your frame rate plummets.
