I can't. I heard it second hand. I'd hate to start any rumors.

It's a test server, bug ridden, crappy, test server.

It should shut all the people who complain about Beta up because this IS beta. although go look at the slew of complaints on the OF... sad really.

All in all it's neat, but I'll only be going because it's my job to educate my outfit on what's what and what's upcomming.

lots of people in the outfit im in (the only tr outfit) say that the chaingun got a tighter cof and the lasher was upgraded as well.

i certed in chaingun and i think it's bs but..

im primarly NC so i dont have the experience a lot of these people do with the chaingun

I'm wondering if we should really be focusing on things other than the liberator, and if they're just letting this other stuff in and not mucking with it, cause it's not their focus - ie Green slime waypoints etc.

What did I notice different? In the time it took me to go through VR with all the vehivcles and play around with the Liberator a little, Planetside went apeshit(tm) on me 7 times. That's 7 times in what should have been 3-4 minutes of playtime but instead took over 20 minutes. Everytime they patch the game seems to go batty on me a little faster. Le sigh.

They are testing though m8, they will be monitoring all the data, looking at appeals and they will be tweaking tbh. You cant really expect it to be an addition 24/7 server to play on :)

Ahh, but this isn't a test server issue. PS goes apeshit on me on any server ;) Just happens more frequently on the test server.

Kinda like before the last patch I had no problems with PS at all. After that patch PS went Apeshit on me a couple times an hour. On the test server it goes apeshit after a few minutes.

(Apeshit=Buildings, trees, people, the ground, oceans etc. dissappearing and reappearing seemingly at random while dropping to about 2-3fps)

Vanu got some lovin :) . Comet max and quasar max (i believe, i may just be idealistically wishing) now have faster moving projectiles, not sure about starfire. Quasar maxes CoF is smaller now, but expands pretty rapidly. Pulsar has a smaller CoF, and does a tad more damage, and the lasher projectiles move more quickly.
