I have to admit, for the very first time I am extremely bored, so little to do.

You know i used to think this time to time, but last night made me realize wut this game was about. As i recently merged my small 40 person outfit into 7th Legion, which is now 16th i points i believe on emerald with 105 members or something, I realized that their outfit is A WHOLE LOT MORE organized and theres always someone to play with. Plus now that i have a microphone and teamspeak, It's even better. Last night we had 2 squads working together, i was leading one, since im a platoon leader and another platoon leader was leading the other, with the leader of the outfit controlling the overall "training exercise". Wut we were doing was practicing working in harmony and taking orders and responding and using discipline etc, and altho it sounds boring, that was the most fun i've had in planetside i believe. Instead of mindless killing, I found that altho i only killed maybe 40 people that night, the aspect of giving my squadmates orders, receiving objectives from our leader as simple as escort the ANT from base to gate then to base, and as complex as squad 1 send half ur members to engage enemy in courtyard while other half infiltrates backdoor and squad two protect the AMS and provide cover fire, was thrilling and made the game seem like it had a point. For all who care we were on from about 8-11 doing our operation on searhus. We started with 2 bases, and at 11 we had locked it down. So all i can say is get in a good outfit, and have fun working together with them, becuz altho planetside's main thing is "massively online FPS" its other main thing is teamwork and how its crucial if u wanna succeed.

I don't! Doodads=Lag. 56k+Lag=teh suck. I call this the Lag Equation. Why do we need a Volcanic Eruption?
It's pretty.
So?
To satisfy people here are some suggestions.

1. Sanc. Content- In the middle, a weapons factory stands. You can go in different rooms and see your weapons being made on an assembly line. You can pick these up with an ANT and drop them off at Villas. This is basically an ANT run for little exp (50 a run).
Go to a warpgate and bring NTUs back to the weapons plant for (50 xp a run)

2. Cities. In every continent there's a city. Basically a Stalingrad type thing out of MOH. Inside is a Control Post that you can hack. Hacking it gives your empire the ability to bring an additional 100 people to that continent.

3. Pillboxes. Along the roads, add pillboxes. Large bunkers with huge machine guns.
A. Storm the back and beat the snot out of them.
B. Shell the guns with tank fire.
Make these with a CC to control much like a tower. These require ANT runs from a warpgate to power it's ammo generator (or it runs out of ammo)

4. Most Wanted Spawns- This will randomly be presented to a person at a Vehicle Terminal. When this happens, they must drive a Deliverer containing a General to another base. All enemies on the continent will be informed of this, and stopping the convoy will gain a lot of XP.
(Note: Deliverer is heavily armored and can be piloted by anyone. Also it's a good idea to take cover along.)

5. Raid- This is a "Capture" on a non-latticed base. You hack it, and when it becomes latticed you gain the base with no 15 minute wait. It's a gamble though, because if it's resecured or the lattice doesn't work, you're screwed.

6. Burnt out towns along the road-As stated above, a small town with windows to shoot out of and cars to hide behind. Roofs also offer sniping points.

7. Tech Steal- Successfully capping a new "Weapons Facility" style base gives your empire access to enemy weapons on that continent until the base is retaken or taken by another empire. Only gives the tech of the previous owning empire. Weapons Facilities have 1 entrance and are heavily defended making a zerg retarded.

Thoughts? Flames? "OMG I WANT YOU TO HAVE MY CHILDREN!" comments?

i dunno if i heard right, but not everyone can drive a deliverer

[Searo]

This deliverer can be piloted by anyone and could be called APC or something.

remember how before the orignal TR came to the planet there were supposed to be Vanu aleins(SP)?

well when they took out the Vanu building a LONG time ago any way of knowing that anything but empty space was once there is gone. i really dont get why they took them out i think they looked cool and added more than just empty space sparsely populated by bases and towers....also liked mentioned before the sancs are EMPTY. once i felw over the VS sanc to get from on warp to another and there aren't even towers there. just roads and hills and grass. also wouldnt there be animals???

personally i'd like se even passing evidence of something ANYTHING having been on auraxis before humans got there and started fighting. or battle scars from the earlier days in the war.

What i find kinda funny is being killed by a Terran with a pulsar or other Vanu weapon, because the background story IS that the Terran are against using vanu technology, thats what this whole war between TR and VS is about... kinda dis-heartening, but funny.
