Some questions from a retired planetsider


I have been away from planetside for quite a while and I am kind of out of touch... So, I have a few nagging questions about the new features in PS.
1) Exactly how big is a lodestar compared to galaxy? Does it really just look like a flying rectangular brick?
2) Whats with this surge agile "exploit" i keep hearing about?
3) What kind of cargo can the lodestar carry? Its a vehicle transport right?

Thanks for clearing up some of my confusion

1: Skinnier, but about just as long.
2: The netcode cant handle the speed at which players are moving at, and thus, seem to warm through floors and ceilings to the player on defense.
3: Every vehicle.

1) Not very much bigger dimensionaly, but it's alot bulkier since it's basicly just a reinforced box with engines.
2) Traveling so fast you warp. Agile+Jackhammer+Surge. Gets the NC in your face before you can blink due to lag warp (which to be honest has now been reduced) and their triple shot means as soon as they are clse to you, instant death.

3) Any vehicle. Max of one vehicle.

Really? May I ask how many other Empires have a secondary-fire one shot kill? (And I'm NC, +a Jackhammer user myself).

None. Just NC.

But that's because NC's need it, because they had trouble killing people even when they were standing still, and staring at them in the face

Naaa just joking.
