Couple of questions here, seeing as my Beta discs still haven't arrived and I'm bored out of my mind...

1. What is the most popular continent right now?

2. What are the most popular empire-specific weapons?

3. Is the Mosquito really invisible on radar? (I thought I saw this somewhere, but can't find it again)

Ok, so it was three questions...

1. What is the most popular continent right now?

Fights tend to happen on a few continents at once. Cyssor is usually fairly popular though. Searhus isn't bad either.

2. What are the most popular empire-specific weapons?

Gauss is by far the most popular Empire specific assault rifle. Mini-chaingun is the most popuplar Empire specific heavy weapon. MAG-Scatter is the most popular Empire specific pistol. Vanguard is the most popular Empire specific tank. Phoenix is the most popular Empire specific anti-vehicular weapon.

3. Is the Mosquito really invisible on radar? (I thought I saw this somewhere, but can't find it again)

Yep, pretty sure it is. That's what it's description says anyway.

Automated turrets suck especially. That's one thing I truly hate about it the Interlink Facility. It's just no fun getting smoked by a bunch of never-miss turrets.

Those turets sure do kick your ass =)

Mosquito is invisible to automated turets, however, players can see it on their "radar" map like thingy =)

The thing about the auto phalanx turret that is infuriating is it's accuracy. It seems that it has perfect accuracy at any range. If you move to a range that you can dumb fire decimator or striker missiles with decent accuracy (i.e. 50%), the turret will target you as soon as you hit it and smoke you almost instantly. Where is that kind of accuracy when it's human controlled?
