Update: the much-awaited hevy salt nerf is finally through! The average player is almost unaffected, but tryhards have switched to maining skillsuit and infil. Out of the frying pan, into the fire.
Also, a bunch of other shit nobody really cares about.

You're an LA with a shotgun, learn to flank if possible. Don't take part in huge fights unless it's a tower / biolab with even pop and you can get inside somewhat safely.
Get the jump on people if possible, if there is a group of enemies; flash and then go in, also aim better.
>>145486982
I can kill one or two, but the other twelve spot me and kill me anon
shotguns are just not worth it for this game

>>145485474
Slugs are only good just past the range where shotguns start to lose effectiveness. Equip either a 1x or a 4x scope depending on if you're going indoors or outdoors, aim down sights at all times even at point blank, only fire once the aim resets at longer ranges. obviously try to aim for headshots since headshots are a 2 hit kill at any range IIRC
At the ranges where the slugs turn your shotgun into a mini semiauto sniper rifle, they have so much drop and move so slowly that you're only going to be hitting maxes, spitfire turrets and Gustavo

I know what you mean.
I took this screenshot a few weeks ago. 33/33/32 split, NC has 0 victory points, yet TR and VS are literally not fighting over a single territory.
I don't think it's meta or anything. I think they just both find NC easier to fight than deal with each others bullshit.

>>145494425
I've taken to lurking both. I definitely prefer here, but I don't think it was their general that killed it. Theirs is hardly more active than this one. I think the death was more from the broken dreams that came with construction being shit. People gave up.
I'd have honestly quit after construction, if it weren't for my outfit.

Not even 6 months ago we were going through one thread a day.rip ;_;
>>145509742
I think the number of "git gud/t. shitter" voices reached critical mass and no one wants to post here anymore.
They were always present, but they've become a seriously high percentage of posts as of late.
>>145507802
And earlier today on one continent NC and VS were both even with like 42% pop each and NC was winning with like 9 VP to VS 3, but then the other continent locked and suddenly everyone flooded in with fairly even pop across all factions and it ended with another VS lock
TR is always focusing on NC and ignoring VS. Probably because prowlers beat vanguards in armor pushes but magriders are 2sneaky for simple prowler drivers to deal with
>>145507802
Isn't the whole 'faction X doesn't fight faction X and only focuses on faction X' the same thing everyone says and silly to take seriously?
>>145512182
It demonstrably does happen sometimes, e.g. two 96+ fronts on your line and only one small 24-48 fight on the enemy's line. To believe the same thing doesn't happen just as often to the other two factions is silly.
>>145512182
i check the map and measure whos fighting who how much by the number of little explosions appear
blue border always has little explosions all over the place, whereas there is often a distinct lack of explosions between red and purple during off hours, and during primetime it picks up some, though population wise it always seems like both factions are dedicating more to exploding along blue territory lines, and NC often seems to be fighting in one additional front than the other factions.
Though its really a matter of 'people dont like fighting vs', particularly newer players since VS have so much bullshit going on like free night camo. I noticed both on connery AND on emerald, as both tr and nc, that people tend to not want to fight vs as much. This is why vs does so well i think even though the other factions both have some really good empire specific stuff, they are just less fun to fight because of all those alien hax.
>>145512182
Except it does.
It's not like shadowy forces are making decisions. It's mostly that no one wants to fight VS.
>>145514253
>It's mostly that no one wants to fight VS.
Completely false.
>>145515470
PS2's #1 leader in kills...
>>145515470
people like you and me want to fight vs to kill gay aliums. But the average person dose not want to fight vs. I did not want to fight vs when i was new to the game either, they are just automatically harder to fight. Their maxes are thinner so harder to hit, their aoe spam is bigger, their mbt can climb fucking walls, they are completely invisible at night.
Sure, once you learn how the game works, its mostly ok. But most people dont know how the game works.
As much as this game is bad at telling people how to do, well anything, can they not have bothered to put hive efficiency maps in game or give a hud indicator for when retards put up terrible hives that lock everything else out?

>>145520423
All pistols are done (except directives)
Aphelion or Saron on the Mag? I feel like Saron is better, but I already have that on my Harasser.
Or maybe even PPA? I'm running AP on the main.
>>145527891
>Emissary longest TTK
What, really? In my experience people who use that thing almost never miss a shot, my average time to death has to be <1s. Laggy koreans probably have something to do with that though.

At least in one of the last updates they reduced the slugs drop
>>145530747
OP used ancient pasta for some reason, see >>145509742
Only lewds can save us now.
>>145528510
Saron probably fits it better, with ability to magdump when peeking. That was my impression when I ran with a magrider pro friend of mine who had both.
Aphelion is exceptional on a harasser though. It's just a straight up better vulcan. If you haven't already got it - get it. It's OP as shit, just no-one spams it, so it'll never get nerfed.
PPA is shit. Get a kobalt instead if you plan to kill infantry, though you'd be better in a fury harasser or bus for that.
>>145536908
I guess I'll just pick up the Saron again.
Could you elaborate a bit more on the PPA vs Kobalt deal? Very few people actually talk about the "shit" weapons in the game.
>>145536984
Well, I can mostly talk about it from a harasser perspective, as that's what I tend to main vehicle wise.
Basically, PPA is extremely inaccurate (think harasser bound duster), along with a relatively small magazine, along with mediocre damage.
As a result, you've a very small effective range (unless tap firing - greatly increasing your time to kill) weapon, that can really only kill 1 or 2 people per magazine.
It's a very mediocre weapon, and in context of the canister and marauder as its competition - it's absolute shit. Against groups up close, you'll be caught reloading before they're dead, and die, against solo players, they'll either medkit through your damage if at range, or you'll straight up miss them due to bloom.
A kobalt however tends to work quite nicely on a solo harasser (or driven sunderer - it's more a stable platform, I assume it's good on magriders too). It's a headshot machine that nearly never needs to be reloaded. You can easily pick off lone targets out for a good range, and spam down clumps. It has a good TTK, and generally it's a very solid weapon.
I guess the only reason you'd take the PPA over the kobalt is for splash damage - but then again, I'd take a fury for that. It does the job better, and is far more reliable over range once you've got the arc down. Fury is just a less specialised marauder, so it fills the niche perfectly.
Really, the aphelion is nearly as good at anti-infantry as the PPA once you become proficient with the disk mechanic.
>>145537660
Thank you very much anon.
Final bump.

>>145540946

>>145540946
rip in peas
>>145537660
it should be noted that the PPA is a godly zerg weapon. when many tanks are using it in the same fight, generally no infantry are left standing.
it's also pretty easy to use meaning any shitter can hop in your crab and start pewing
>>145543295
I'm pretty sure I didn't die a single time to ground PPA since the nerf. I'm dying a lot more to Gatekeepers that are supposed to be an AV weapons
>>145543614
well the gatekeeper is broken, everyone knows that
roughly the same infantry DPS as the PPA, travels fast as fuck, deals good damage to vehicles too
point still stands that the PPA is a good zerg weapon
What would you say was the main reason lots of people stopped playing this game?

>vs having grey under purple makes them overpowered because muh FREE NIGHT CAMO
wow
>>145547589
Well, it actually does.
I can't fucking see them at night. The dark colors blend into shadows and break up their silhouette. They're easier to lose in visual noise, and harder to spot before they open fire on you.
Meanwhile NC and TR run around in highly contrasting red and blue.
VS's armor needs to go back.
>>145548276
>NC wears tan cloth and bright blue metal plates, and has bright yellow details and goggles/faceplate

>>145548469
I honestly don't know, but I can't understand why they persist in never fixing it.
Anyone got those comparisons of the solid black camo on vanu armor vs the default camo?
so how about that new high velocity ammo?
>>145548861

>>145550154
It's shit an wrel is dumb
>>145550358
The date on this file is September 1st, 2014 but I think it's still pretty much the same except with more bits and bobs for new helmets.
>>145550446
You piqued my curiosity so I went a digging to find what the VS sheet looks like now.
Not quite as pitch black, more of an iffy indigo-type color, but still nowhere as near as contrasted as the original skin.
Look closer too and you'll see there's even LESS teal, with the last little bits having been turned a sort of blue-grey that's way less standout than the teal was.
>>145550928
VS needs the bright pinkish/purple highlights on the edges like >>145548276
The solid portion of the camo can be as black as they want so long as the silhouette/outline is distinct and visible like the NC and TR.
Well, this surprised me.

>It's shit
so i shouldn't put it on my gauss saw?
Battle Rifles; statistically the same guns in every way, except the VS version has no drop and a 30m/s slower bullet.
I think this is a pretty good case example of the difference that no bullet drop actually makes - it's not much, but it's also not nothing.
>>145553529
Battle rifles are one of the only guns where the lack of bullet drop actually matters, that being very low rate of fire, higher damage semi-auto weapons that aren't shotguns.
>>145553509
There's not really any point. You barely get any velocity increase and the tradeoff is losing 20% of your max damage range.
>>145553058
shotguns are bullshit m8, so are smg infiltrators holy fuck if any faction ever went 100% smg infiltrators they would be unstoppable
Remove shotguns and infiltrators from the game, to be honest, give dildar to light assault.
>>145553597
but gauss saw is a good sniping weapon if you single shot tap it. I just love headshoting boltshitters.
The real issue is i have a disconnect of what range is in game. I dont really know how far 10meters is compared to 8 meters. I cant understand how many times i am within that 8-10 meter range. Because according to charts ive seen im better off in almost all situations having HVA unless i am shooting at something within that 2 meter window.
The inside of big rooms for example, where does that 2 meter window fall?
>>145553058
Thanks for giving our lord and savor views. He deserves every dick sucking because his long shlong.
>>145553768
Here you go
>>145553529
where can you see these stats
i want to see the truth with my own eyes
>>145553952
thanks.
So in my experience using gauss saw i either try to stay further away than 10 meters, or im doing some emergency point holding and im peeking out a door and mowing down 5 people point blank with headshots.
That said im not sure it really matters enough to spend the 100 certs since gauss saw already rapes everything at all ranges
>>145553610
Shotguns are not bullshit, they're very good at close range and useless at medium/long range (besides for the slug baron meme). What's bullshit is that because of the retarded netcode, you can get OHKd two seconds before you see that lagging subhuman round the corner.
Also, infiltrators as a whole are bullshit, not just SMG.
>>145554090
I'm making a spreadsheet using dasanfall's numbers.
You can do it yourself if you want, the formula I'm using to determine real DPS is:
(A*B*C) + (A*B)
A = ((RPM / 60) * DMG Per Bullet)
B = Accuracy %
C = HSR %
Example, Gauss Saw:
A = ((500 / 60) * 200) = 1667.667 DPS
B = 17.9%
C = 20.7%
(1667.667 * 0.179 * 0.207) + (1667.667 * 0.179) = 360.31 DPS
Thus we get 360 DPS for someone with 17.9% accuracy and 20.7% headshot ratio using the Gauss Saw.
You can download the unfinished spreadsheets here: https://www.mediafire.com/?7u3lm7uuibir013
I've still got to add AR's, Carbines, Snipers, and Shotguns.
Keep in mind that it doesn't take into account attachments, leg damage, fire modes, or DPS at varying ranges. For instance, a Gauss Saw is able to put out more DPS at 100m than an Orion is. It's a rough approximation of real-world weapon performance on the server and aggregates all ranges and situations together.
>>145555048
sick stuff, i'll have a look at it when i get homeremember to rub it in reddits face as well
>>145554092
The benefits are miniscule/imperceptible, and while the downside itself is relatively minor, the upside is even more ignorable.
It basically does so little it's not even worth bothering with.
I don't know what the hell wrel was thinking with it.
Attachments need to offer substantial changes. Nobody gives a fuck about +5% here, or +3% there.
>>145555048
>17% accuracy
who is this bad
>>145556359
The average NC heavy assault player.
I took that number from the actual avg for the Gauss Saw.
>>145556378
Well that makes sense, but it's still disappointing.
>>145555048
>For instance, a Gauss Saw is able to put out more DPS at 100m than an Orion is.
Only by using this simplified model for DPS.
>>145556359
What are actually good numbers? I'm fairly new to ps2 and I'm sitting at 23.88% acc with a 30.18% HSR on my AF-19.
>>145557476
>infilshit
>>145557312
That statement has nothing to do with a DPS "model"
The data shows the Orion has substantially higher DPS on average than the gauss saw does - which was my point. The gauss saw is better at longer ranges where the single shot accuracy lets you do more damage more quickly than an orion would be capable of, but because the data is an aggregation of all combat situations and can't be segregated by particular range brackets, you can't see where the transitions occur that make a gauss saw better than an orion.
Now, I may entirely be wrong about the gauss saw having more DPS in practice at 100m than the orion; that's just an educated guess on my part, since accuracy at various ranges isn't available to say for sure.
But that's the sort of reason for collecting and presenting this data. You can dispel assumptions with actual facts and evidence. The methodology I'm using may not be perfect, but it's better than emotionally charged arguments on a forum for deciding weapon balance.

30% acc/35%+ HSR are good numbers to work towards
>>145564742
Interestingly enough, I think if you watched streams or videos in 2012 and 2013, or just listened to proximity chat, the PS2 playerbase was older and more mature than the average FPS.
I don't think it's like that anymore, but I think it was in the past.
>>145564930
these kinds of numbers are statgaming crap.
if people worry about their accuracy score, they aernt going to randomly spray areas thinking an infiltrator could be hiding there, for example, or may hold their fire when they see a far off man who they cant kill, but may damage enough that he ends up getting killed by a team mate a second later.
>>145565473
>if people worry about their accuracy score, t
yes, that's the point
if you manage 30% acc/35%+ HSR without explicitly trying to get big numbers, you're decent

A lot of the people playing in the early access and early release were old PS1 vets. PS1 is an old game, you have to have been old to play PS1 when it was alive.
Since PS2 never really progressed from being a call of battlemans, a lot of old vets left for other games where they can fit in with other dads, like elite

For A-10, go for Lib with tank buster.
>>145573347
does that work better than esf with those rocket pods? i mean a-10 in function, not necessarily just to brrrrt
Maybe i should have compared to a stuka instead, go in and unload then zoom off. Or whatever, i just want to kill stuff on the ground.

ESF has hornet missiles too, those work like MAX's ravens.

>>145573347
i find that until you max out your lib with afterburner, composite etc, the liberator is kind of eh and needs to stay at a distance, meaning the standard gun will net you more damage.
but when you do get those final certs into the lib and you realize how broken it is, by all means get the tankbuster
>>145572784
>is it worth it to try and learn to ESF for the soul purpose of being a ground attack platform?

It is fun if you get lucky with a few runs.
Usually go for the NC shotgun with thermal vision, proximity radar and extra afterburner with the airframe that gives you additional speed for maximum survivability.
Terrible vs armour but useful for support and sweeping an area for snipers. I just hit and run.
I suck complete utter ass in air to air, always ends up in a hover fight in close proximity which I hate so I always try to escape unless they have low health.
Rocket pods are pretty useful but I become more vulnerable and less likely to escape enemy ESFs. I don't usually take out armour since they have anti air support most of the time.
Got lucky on a few passes taking out undefended sunderers or getting the drop on a TR MBT from behind gotta be careful though some tank crews are crack shots so I try to swoop down from above where they cannot touch me unless they have AA gunner.
Generally I don't bother against libs, got lucky a few times dodging dalton with afterburner and harrasing until they crash because they stay belly up for too long and loose sense of altitude. But it is nerve wracking and they have to be terrible pilots to pull it off. One mistake and you die.
Had some success with a2a in a support role while the enemy is busy fighting other aircraft. The moment they turn attention to me I pull out.
I don't give a fuck about being a pussy ass motherfucker, I'll abuse and exploit whatever advantage I can to come on top.

How hasn't the MSW-R been nerfed yet? It's literally an AR for heavies. For comparison, the Orion has 0.4 moving COF and 0.9 horizontal tolerance which are normal values for LMGs.

What is the best faction/class/weapon for defending towers?
>>145590487
burgers
>>145590487
For Towers any class with flak armor will do, for Biolabs the best one is ofc LA with an accurate carbine.
LA also works when you are attacking Biolabs, especially when your faction has a teleport with a roof above. Fights like that are even better farm than on defense.
You need a couple other LAs to help clear the roof though, but after that you can just endlessly farm retards camping the air pad.

>not actual helpful adviceaim at things all the time. aim at the guy next to you, aim at the spot on the wall, aim at the center of the doorway. as you play, never stop aiming at things. eventually you become accustomed to moving the crosshairs where you need them to be, as your body adapts the muscle memory to suit the brain and its needs. this is what is known as "aiming better". when you become proficient at getting into the mindset that leads to "aiming better", you can start trying to git gud.

I do aim for the head. It just that everybody seem to always move aster, aim better, always know where i am and have 3 buddies to count on. And also managing that recoil when playing NC, when i hardly can touch my target
>>145605342
well yea, i come from some shooters needing rapid reaction, so i learned to always aim at corners.
But this game is worse than battlefield in the meat grinder genre. I can't seem to get better
>>145605340
I'm talking about personal improvement.
>>145606051
m8, what do these people do that you can't? why are you putting yourself in a situation where the enemy has 3 buddies and you don't? if the enemy is stronger, prepare for him.make sure you're playing on a server with a low track record of russian subhuman lag wizards
>>145606051
There are a lot of vets in this game. Start by playing passive-aggressively. Especially since anything can happen with a population this big. Once you know all of the maps and a basic player's mentality, you can start playing like an idiot(aggressive attacking).
Also, lower sensitivity, and get a bigger mousepad. I run 400 DPI mouse, and have my sensitivities for mouse in the .20's and the ADS sensitvity 1.15 times larger than the mouse sensitvitiy.
Also, turn off mouse acceleration in game and on your computer, and click reduce input lag.
Generally for aircraft and tanks, you can keep it at default, but for infantry, you need to lower it to be precise in where you want to aim, which is the head.
Also, lower your FOV. It'll mean more recoil, but you'll get used to burst-firing eventually. I feel this is better since the heads appear larger, but if you prefer to see everything and be situationally aware(which is a skill that will come with reaction and good headphones), then you can jack up your FOV to 74 or edit settings in the useroptions.ini in your planetside 2 folder in your computer files.
Also, you get better frames if you jack up textures and terrain to ultra, but turn off shadows/flora and everything else on low.
If you want to go extra tryhard, download recursion stattracker and put a crosshair for the middle of your screen as some of the crosshair sights aren't perfectly aligned in the middle.
>>145606719
My ingame settings sensitivity is 0.400

>>145607091
.400 is way too high, even if you're running low dpi. try lowering it a little every day if you're mouse can't change dpi. Or get a new mouse that can change dpi.
With one arm swipe, you should be able to turn half way around on a small mousepad, or all the way around if you have a large mousepad.
>>145607392
your* fugg
>>145607091
if you want to see what practiced low sensitivity can get you, you can look at these decent players. Most casuals would call aimbot, but the low sensitivity allows them to track head movements(ADADAing) and go to exactly where they want their gun to go(your head)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDJrNBD38xY
I don't understand how the game calculates sensitivity. It's not linear, i.e. 0.100 at 800 DPI is not same as 0.200 at 400 DPI. Why can't it use the same scale as Quake and CS:GO?

I've created a new scoring method for the guns now.
I think this should work pretty well - what I did was establish a standard distribution for three categories (DPS, KDR, and KPH) and then added those z-scores together.
Picture related is the result. The SCORE column is the combined z-scores; the firearms at the top are those with the best performance in all three metrics.
I still haven't finished adding firearms, but this is turning out pretty neat and fun so far.

>>145649972
KDR and KPH doesn't necessarily reflect the statistical strength of the weapon, just the average skill of the players who use them. Directive weapons will obviously come out on top because players will simply have more experience and ability by the time they get them.

not really
>>145653871
Yes, I've got literally thousands of hours in the game. And I can tell you that statistically, LMG's are not as good on paper or in-game as AR's. If you actually knew fuck-all about fuck-all you'd know a good medic can easily out-dps a heavy if they aim well. If you're trying to fight Resist heavies face-to-face you're a fucking moron because you've clearly not even tried to outposition them, and if they're using NMG then they're a shitter anyway so what's the problem.
>>145654161
You sound quite retarded.
Ever consider the cancer class would be considered medic and not heavy if what you said was anything other than 'on paper' drivel?
Things don't play out as they do on paper.

>>145654495
why are you sharing your stats shitty
>>145653321
>>145654161
The only AR's that really are better than LMG's are burst guns.
LMG's in this game are nothing but AR's on steroids, which is fucking retarded. The only thing AR's have over LMG's is lower vertical recoil.
LMG's have less horizontal recoil than AR's for some unknown reasons, and yet they still have 143/750 damage model.
>can easily out-dps a heavy if they aim wel
No they can't. 800 RPM AR's (that only have 50 RPM more than LMG's) have 50% (!!) more horizontal recoil than 143/750 LMG's and are a lot more jittery in general. And HA has 50-70% more HP than a medic.
With 2 players on a same skill level, HA will always win. That's all, nothing more so stop projecting because i can already tell that you are a sub 1200 ivi score/5.0 ivi kdr shitter.

>>145655181

Its pretty dead during off hours, but if you play during prime time there are still decent sized battles.
>>145656069
I guess I'll give it a try, I kinda suck at FPS games that put you in squads though, everyone seems to just run around solo.
>>145655828
At that point it comes more down to positioning and who gets the headshots first. The medic would benefit more in this scenario from either midrange engagement with something like the Cycler/Reaper or any of the burst weapons, or a close-range magdump on the head with something like the Carnage/TAR/TRV etc. But in any engagement, the factors are never this simple. Comes down to the immediate context of the situation. You can hypothesize all you want but once people are playing, anything is on the table.
>>145656138
I unironically wish you good luck. This game has a pretty low new player retention rate (only 11% of new players continue past rank 15). Theres a million ways to die in this game and so most new players just say fuck it and uninstall.

Is dying a lot really the reason for low player retention?
I stopped playing because of how grindy the cert system seemed combined with the bad taste the whole game leaves in my mouth when you think about what it could've been and what we got instead.
>>145658481
Dying alot isn't the problem.
More the lack of tutorial and direction, the somewhat vertical upgrade system while being extremely grindy (especially in the beginning, when you don't know whats up yet), the inability to try out stuff properly paired with the price point of everything and than there's also the pisspoor performance.

I want to like Battle Rifles but they just don't seem very good.
Is there a recommended way to use them? I kind of treat them like scout rifles, engaging with hopefully-decisive shots from medium range, preferably unnoticed.
>>145660118
They're just flat out awful.
They need a damage boost to 300 per bullet
So, how do I buy membership without a credit card? I used the Pay With Steam option through the website, Steam booked 13€ from PP to my Steam wallet and after that I couldnt continue because it wanted me to add a credit card out of a sudden.

It's Reaper DMR. FPS wise game runs really good for me, rarely dropping below 120 FPS, capped at 144 in most of the smaller fights. The only fights where it drops below 100 are huge AMP station clusterfucks, but it's something related to AMP station superstructure (it has huge impact on CPU).

They really need to remove the ability to force potato mode so you can turn off smoke. Its always tryhard beetleniggers that seem to do it too; people who just fire straight through it with perfect accuracy as if it wasn't there.
>>145705442
They also need to make it block doritos
When do the new anti-cheat measures go live, anyways?
Have dasanfall or anyone got anything together to track players before and after?

>Also, you get better frames if you jack up textures and terrain to ultra
is this 4real? why would they not also be on low?
>>145717721
Because it's only true as long as you have enough memory on your GPU.
Compressing the textures so they take up less memory requires CPU processing time, however it means a shitty 512mb GPU can actually handle all the textures.
If, on the other hand, you have a 2GB+ GPU, the textures won't use up the memory space, so you end up compressing the textures (at CPU processing cost) for no actual gain, because you're not using up all the memory anyways.

why not just use a 4x scope to make heads bigger

because it also makes 4x preceived recoil you dummy

>>145762274
Just buy whatever dumbfire rockets your faction carries. Shooting down ESF's in combat is cute, but the devs have made it abundantly clear that this is not what ESFs are for.
You're supposed to politely ignore each other and farm infantry in peace. The only ESF fights that should occur are when there's a territorial dispute over farming rights.
>>145765119
Hellfires it is then, I mostly like to hit and run with my Mozzie anyway, so the spike damage and versatility wins out in my estimation.
Are the Hornets viable against enemy esf's?
>>145766908
Well for the most part, people aren't dying in less than a second. ~2 seconds is more accurate, and 3-4 seconds isn't unusual either.
<1s deaths are usually from something like a shotgun, a good string of headshots, or server latency making it seem like you took all that damage at once.
If you look at the recorded DPS for the SMG's it's 500 vs 509 vs 513. Daily variance in player accuracy might change the values there by ~2-5 dps.

Anyone experiencing extreme FPS drops since today's 15 MB patch? Like 30-40 when you should get over 100?
Saw a few reports on reddit, and they all had i7 4790K and GTX 970, which is also what I have. If it affected everyone equally, there would have been 20 threads about it.
finally got up to 2k certs. was saving for NS 7G but now i'm having last second regrets.
Cyclone vs NS 7G?

lul
also, cyclone is a close range monster
and NS7 is a "medium" range SMG
>>145800647
is certing for NS weapons generally considered bad idea?
i have dbc as well but my friend told me to use it only for cosmetics
>>145800801
NS7G is the golden reskin that cannot be bought with certs
>>145800442
Sent from my Prowler :)
>>145800970
holy fuck i'm retarded
>>145800213
The Cyclone's strength is overstated. It's solid, but in my ancedotal experience its horizontal recoil bounces just enough to be unreliable outside of close range.
I think the NS-7 PDW is a better all-rounder, but you're not gonna have the same punch up close. So it depends how you play.
As an LA I prefer the NS7 because you're above people and just far enough that you can't trust the Cyclone unless you're really control bursting at which point you might as well run with a carbine.
If you're an infilshitter getting up close with your "skillsuit" and sticking it up people's asses then the Cyclone will suit you.
>>145801279
Ns7 is a better all rounder. It not only has lower horizontal recoil, but also a lot less damage dropoff.
Cyclone has the highest damage dropoff from all the SMG's
>>145801559
>>145801279
to confirm, if I buy the NS-7 with certs, I won't have access to it across all of my characters.
If I buy it with DBC, I will?
>>145801942
If you buy with Dbc, yes you will. Sadly certs will only unlock it on one character.

The NS battle rifle for infiltrators is a fucking absurd weapon and I love using it.
>7-8 K/D with it every time I take it out
It's completely overpowered.
>>145806628
Well inf having long distance rifles is annoying, but i can cope with it, but invisible fuckers running around and peppering you with OP weapons is a bit more annoying IMO
It's also that i see more SMG fucks than battle rifles
>>145806628
There's a battle rifle usable by infils?
>>145806804
>correcting myself
Peppering you with close range weapons and the ability to close this range easily without getting noticed
>>145806804
I'm not sure why it's infiltator limited, I'd love to use it as ANY other class.
>>145806842
Check out the semi-automatic scout rifles, the higher damage 10 round NS model is quite literally a battle rifle. It might even be BETTER than the battle rifles.
Really fun to use.
>>145806968
Everyone can use the SMG's, don't they ?
I thought i saw a Light assault with it earlier
>>145807165
Anyone can use the SMGs, yes, but not the Infiltrator scout rifles.
To my infinite disappointment.
I left PS2 after the construction system came out. I thought it was save the game but it felt really clunky and killed it for me. Has it gotten any better since then?

>>145812106
weapon directives are cumulative.
e.g. I just got gold in carbines by hitting the 160 kill mark with AC-X11, which opened up the master directive level. All my previous kills with the Gauss S, Mercenary and Razor (which I auraxium'd) ticked over, immediately filling 3 objective bars.
>>145812106
Kills carry over for specific weapons, yeah. Other than ribbons, most other things don't though, e.g. tank kills as a tank, medic kills as a medic, roadkills and so on.

Are the new tank secondaries useful at all or is the halberd and vulcan/saron/enforcer still king?
>>145824757
Gatekeeper was extremely OP and frustrating to fight against, but got nerfed, so now it's both frustrating to fight against, and frustrating to use. Every single TR prowler runs the thing.
Mjolnir is okay on a harasser if used in its specified role and nothing but that, but useless on a tank. Can't defend against air. Can't kill infantry, etc. It gets frustrating when tank crews bail. You can't do shit about them usually, if others are shooting at you.
Aphelion is broken OP on a harasser, but no-one spams it (or knows how good it is?), so it'll stay extremely OP. It's supposedly ok on a Magrider too, but saron suits it better.
>>145824757
About secondaries. Should I fit canister with thermals on vanguard?
>>145827154
if you want to drive a shotgun around, use the harasser
>>145827154
I strongly disagree with fitting AI on a tank because you lose all tank v tank fights but thermal on canister is fine.
>>145827679
Okay, will look into that. Thanks.
>>145827718
So, anti-tank secondary then. Enforcer?

>you might actually consider using thermals due to smoke usage by infantry
>you might actually be able to use large amounts of smoke cover to prevent air/tanks from shelling you as you move between open areas
>vehicles would have some bare bones reason to have smoke deployment on standby beyond taking care of the non-existent threat of ground-lock launchers from retards who need help hitting a huge target

Shotguns won't make your regular shootmans any better, but "actually" improving is such a general term that it can mean anything.

It's not really a rocket launcher tho; it cannot instagib infantry, has substantially less range, has next to no AoE, has no lock on functionality, can't destroy esf's in one hit etc...
Compared to the RL, it has more versatility and that is fine but it's only really powerful if your within kissing distance of a tank.

Actually, I think positioning and movement are the -only- things that matter with shotguns, beyond basic aiming ability. Point is that there are weapons you can use that push both your positioning ability and actually require you to uh
>aim better

>beyond basic aiming ability
dicksucking range and the nature of shotguns and clientside in larger fights means that aiming ability is fairly important
it's just a different kind of aiming to "sanctioned" IVI tomfoolery
>>145888379
Same fundamentals.
>Complaining about clientside when using a shotgun

I didnt know you could play this on nintendo
>>145891247
well you can
and I don't know how to make a 35 second long webm under 3 mb also be high quality
>>145890823
Jesus
>>145891472
Depends on how static is the scene you recorded is. With dual pass encoding, and high quality mode webm like yours should be around 500-640 resolution
>>145891472
>35 second long
2 pass, high-high, 400
try it
>>145860456
Literally more Pajeets and niggers than white people.
>>145891472
VP9 encoding, but 4chan doesn't allow it because moot is literally retarded
