to many TR

[MooKoo]

i looked at this vote thing (can't think of the word) that asked what empire you wanted to be and TR had mabye 1,000 more people then vanu and way more then NC wouldn't this mean that when people get the game and are trying to get bases the TR might take alot because they have more people then both of the other empires so how are vanu and NC sposed to stand a chance against TR.

[Camping Carl]

To many vanu...

[MooKoo]

no to many people that say vanu suck when there is no reason to because this is a game

[Camping Carl]

But they do suck, and what is this game thing you speak of?

[MooKoo]

ok how do they suck

[Camping Carl]

They're purple
They're all wannabe snipers/stealthers.
They shoot wimpy lasers.
They're purple
Their vehicles float.
They have styrofoam for armor.
And did I mention, they're purple?

[Sturm]

Common mistake...using one group of people to represent a whole..the people who come to these forums and do polls are far less than those who do not.
Even so, I'm absolutely positive that on some servers the ratio between sides wont be 1to1to1. Can we expect to see servers where one side is dominating because of an advantage in numbers...of course. I think the team were working on ways to even it out but either I can't remember or they just haven't announced it.

[MooKoo]

seems you want to be them and i don't want to be a sniper and you can be a vanu with the hovering things or u could steal one of ours and what is wrong with purple. who cares that we have lasers nc has those big tanks that blow almost any thing up

[chaos1428]

"who cares that we have lasers nc has those big tanks that blow almost anything up"

the prosocution rests:D

DIE VANU DIE:domotwak:

[MooKoo]

i don't see why people hate vanu. if you hate thier lasers well why is that? they are not cheap because well we have not even played the game yet so you can't say any thing about any of the empires because we don't know that much (well we do but we don't know if any of them are cheap) we could say that NC was cheap or TR or vanu and make up all these reasons but we don't know till this game comes out so just stop it with the vanu crap vanu did nothing to you!

Too many TR... hmmm... maybe, but definately not enough punctuation.

[MooKoo]

As long as people know what i am saying i don't care about punctuation.

[chaos1428]

Bashing the Vanu is all in good fun, man.

Cuz lets face it, they are so much fun to make fun of!

If they didn't want to get made fun of, then they shouldn't wear purple pants :D

[�io]

Ok first off yes TR seems to be the very popular choice(just look at the PSU staff and Dev team :D) but that doesn't mean the other empires will get 0wnzed, the dev team already said that they will implement stuff to help even the balance so no worries.

Second yes people bash on the VS and yes they have no real reason(other than maybe male insecurity towards purple ;)) but as you said it's just a game, no need to complain about something as trivial as people bashing your empire, bash back, insult theirs or do like i do and just ignore them. :)

Do people make fun of vanu just to piss off the vanu people? or because they don't have a life *thinks* hmm could be both :)

The Vanu dont suck, and if they do, as Carl says, then the NC swollow, but I can not help but see all the hate you mortals have for us Vanu. Your minds are so simple, it is easy to understand your hate. You are Human, and thus, as most humans do, you hate that which you dont understand. Your feeble minds can not understand that which is Vanu, and that which you dont understand you fear, and that which you fear, you hate. And worry not about the large numbers of the Terrans overwellming the Vanu or NC, their old ways and weapons will be of little use against either of our factions, thought the same could be said for the NC's weapons against the Vanu. Seeth in your hate, it will do you little good.

Well, those are pretty much my reasons. Don't know about the other NC/TR people tho.

that explains so much,

i can make a point by putting in a quote and then have a lil icon hold a sign that says vanu suck, wow i made a big different

i think i will do what Dio did and just ignore them (them as in the vanu haters)


lets see them hate on us when we shoot them in the head with a laser

The TR are based on the idea of quantity over quality anyways, while the NC value individual power.

The TR and Vanu may have more than the NC, but that will just encourage the NC to become better and smarter(no offence to intelegent albs and mids, bug Hibs were gimped, but still did decent).

Don't forget, there are is going to be more than one world(server) and many people who will join the armies(get the game) haven't neccecarily(sp?) answered the poll. SO on one world there maybe more vanu than conglomerate, and vice versa, and some servers with more terrans. It just depends, either way...the more vanu and conglomerates there are for me to put a bullet to, the better.

Terran Republic, TO THE DEATH!!:) :) :blowup: :twisted:

On lancelot albs and mids dominated, then out of no where the hibs, weakest realm by FAR, came out of no where and captured all the relics.

Shows what a little organization can do.

[Navaron]

Funny how some people get all touchy. It's ok to be sensetive guys, and heh, purple will be back in style in say...14 15 years.

[SandTrout]

Yeah, but lancelot has some of the worst alb-hib ratios as well I believe. Organization is what allows a goup of hibs in the BG made of 1 bard and 7 casters to take out 2 groups of albs.

I will join the server than my outfit joins, but I hope its the one with the NC off the worst.

Dude, there'll be like 150k - 200k people playing this game. You really think it's a big friggin deal if the Terrans have a 1,000 man lead on some forum? People change their minds, and good God, you're not even polling the right people. We're hardcore. We're the guys who get all into this stuff and take it to the next level. The majority we are not, and as such, what we come up with by polling ourselves means precisely dick in the long run.

So stop worrying about it. I wouldn't be surprised if the poll says Terrans are going to be the majority, and they actually end up being the minority.

[Warborn]

Nah, this is just the NC/VR people trying to convince themselves that the Terrans are a futuristic Soviet Union or some BS like that. Their weapons are just as effective as the other weapons, and if you think they're going to need a numerical advantage and that the game is designed for them to have said advantage, you're kidding yourself.

[CDaws]

What's not to disslike about the VANU? Hell they're trying to bring back that 60's and 70's corderoy bellbottom pants look with the slashed knees. http://planetside-universe.com/media/viewer.php?cat_id=21&img_id=9 Damn Hippies. :D All jokeing aside empire bashing on a friendly basis is a enjoyably past time which every has or should enjoy.

[phadE]

After reading MooKoo's posts im glad there wont be any inter-empire chat. Some people just can't take a little light hearted trash talking :P

[Joker]

Whoa MooKoo you reeeeally need to lighten up. I don't know what country you're from so don't know what sports you're into but whatever - you probably support a team, football, american football, basketball, baseball, rugby whatever. One of the best parts of supporting a team is taking the piss out of your rivals, and shoving the victories of your own team in your mates faces. With Planetside, its exactly the same - u support your own side and insult the opposition - but you are actually part of your team, so its even more satisfying when u win / annoying when u lose.

And as for why more people seem to slag of vanu than other empires, well have u seen what they wear? Purple????? What a bunch of posers :D

:rock:

[RangerJoe]

purple ownz =)

[Zatrais]

Atleast the Vanu won't end up in a yellow chicken suit at rank20 :D

[Tobias]

Being a yellow bellyed coward is way better then being in a leet purple suit and packing a laser gun.....right......




Vanu power.

[Hamma]

:lol:

Nice work there haha

[Supafun]

the vanu are tree hugging plasma hurlers. :whip: :P~

[Tobias]

Just because some of us have intercourse with trees and shrubery does not give you an exscuse to sling insualts around!


Now for a song about this thread:

To many TR? Whats that mean?
Its like being to lucky, or having a skeeter thats to fast
To much ammo, or BEP's
Its like a Hot Vanu babe to pretty, there is no such thing.

[SandTrout]

I wasn't saying they'll need a numerical advantage, just that it would fit the empire's style. This is just guessing, but the NC might not need as many support units to keep on going b/c they use less ammo to kill someone.

[�io]

Peeps really should quit pretending the VS have no style, purple and teal is way more sexay than red and grey or yellow and blue.

I mean come on.

There is no such thing as too many Vanu or TR.

Think of it as more BEP for US!

Exactly my position.

[zMessiahz]

Damn. Looks like a lot of TR and NC peeps need to wake up and go outside. Purple is not in?!? Vanu is by FAR the most stylish of all the empires. Regardless of what you hide-in-your-house-all-day-and-wear-whatever-grungy-piece-of-clothing-that-happens-to-be-on-top-of-the-heap people think.

Ok so now my co-worker (she's fine as hell btw) thinks I am a freak cause I made her look at all the armors and pick out which one she likes the most. Suprise, she said they were all ugly but the Vanu (and those were cool, "for a video game"). You can't argue with the fashion advice of beautiful women.

[Camping Carl]

Purple = suckage

[Knight309]

Think of it this way. Vanu =purple =nice obvious target. Also for all those of you that dislike barney, think of the vanu as barney's carrying laser rifles.....time for our REVENGE!!!! :twisted:

Hey hey this isnt a fashion show! Them Vanu nerds should spend less time on their armor styles and more on their guns. [hugs his Gauss rifle]

Vanu MAX = seksi :eek:

I wish the NC MAX had a similar, sleek design, but I guess it does fit them well.

I've just gotta wonder about the TR MAX... dang thing looks like some kind of deep-sea diving suit :huh:
