rummy.cn rides again.

I hope I have some playable internets in time for this.

For the record, this is the last post I made before crossing the 1k mark.

BRBU peeps love them some chinaman PS.

Also, chinaman is not the preferred nomenclature, dude.

I think people give you a plus one karma everyday for just showing up and making the community a better place.

Asshole.

I'd prefer to think that people are really really excited about Planetside N3XT.

Thanks for ruining Christmas with your clumsy reach-around.

PS- monkeys wear crocs. What more proof do you need of their fashion-backwardness? Of crocs, not monkeys.
I'll be back when this is a thing that happens.

Rise from your grave!




Based on what I'm seeing, its likely there will be a "resub" event in February to try to get in on the ground floor of the beta. More details as we get more news out of SOE.

I just found this on the main ps forums.  This dude live streams his Planetside sessions including ventrillo  lol.   I'm impressed.   Tigersmith has been playing this game for a couple years so he should be able to show some good killing.

A bit of backstory, there are three factions with different themes.

Terran Republic (TR) - Weapons have a high rate of fire, but each shot does low damage

New Conglomerate (NC) - Weapons have a low rate of fire, but do very high damage

Vanu Soverignty (VS) - Weapons don't excel at any particular task, but are supposed to be 'sorta good' at everything


Now, its pretty easy to balance NC against TR, lets say, balancing their empire rifles, if the TR Gun does 100 damage in 10 shots, the NC one should do 100 damage in 5 shots, both do the same DPS, and all is well.

However, its really hard to balance the VS, their rifle when the game was released might as well have been a flash light it did so little damage. It's "advantage" was that instead of carrying Armor Piercing and Anti-Infantry ammo separately, it just had alt fire modes and used one type of ammo.


When the game came out, NC was widely regarded as "Easy Mode", and generally overpowered compared to the other two factions. TR had some ridiculous things going as well, and the Vanu....well the Vanu just had their tank.


Took them 5 years to finally "balance" vanu, there were a few patches that made VS weapons way OP....and they lasted about a week before getting rolled back. And even now, the TR are more widely regarded as 'easy mode', their heavy assault weapon is just really good...and really easy to use.
I thought the original game was single-payment...
Ooops
We wish. If it were, we'd all still be playing it.

Reduce.
Reuse.

How did I miss this thread? Count me in this!
So a lot of people are resubbing to PS for a shot at the beta only to face rampant hacking.    A lot of people have complained and they finally shut of trail accounts.    Dare I say progress?

But now Wedge can't play with us! D:

rumsfald

(staring around for peer-pressure to see who will re-sub first)

I have terrible internet connection, and still have terrible commuting hours (4 1/2 hours a day en toto), so I'd rather not commit to something I can play 20 mins of before falling asleep. But still.
ouch
I resubbed once I found out they got rid of the free trials, success!
