Player Recertification Version 3.0.17

[Hamma]

Sporkfire has posted an update on the official forums that all players certifications will be cleared tomorrow morning.

All players will need to be aware that we will be recertifying all players in PlanetSide tomorrow morning at 3 AM Pacific to introduce new elements to the existing certification process.

When you first login to PlanetSide after tomorrow morning, all of your characters will be without any certifications. You will have all of your cert points restored and may spend them again at a Certification Terminal.

Players should be aware that there will be a change to several certifications once this update hits the Live Servers.

• There is a new certification tree for Armored Assault that includes acquisition for BattleFrame Robotics.
  • Armored Assault 1 - Access to the Lightning Tank - cost 2
  • Armored Assault 2 - Access to the empire specific Medium Battle Tank - cost 1 (requires that you have Armored Assault 1)
  • Flail - Access to the Flail - Cost 1 (requires that you have Armored Assault 2)
  • BattleFrame Robotics - Cost 2 (requires that you have Armored Assault 2)
• The Harasser is now also included in the Assault Buggy certification.
• The Light Scout certification will remain for anyone who is interested in keeping the Lightning/Harasser combination.

BFR's will not be included in the update, but all other 3.0 features will be. BFR's will launch Monday, October 18 with Aftershock.

So everyone will start with a clean slate and there will be a few tweaks! Check out the official thread here. And once they post the official notes for tomorrow you can be sure to find them here.

UPDATE - Live Version 3.0.17 (October 15, 2004)

• The Harasser is now also included in the Assault Buggy certification.
• While the Light Scout vehicles are now located in other certs (Lightning in Armored Assault 1 and Harasser in Assault Buggies), the Light Scout certification will remain for anyone who is interested in keeping the Lightning/Harasser combination.
• The Striker and MAX lock-on weaponry now function after deconstructing in a spawn tube.
• Repeater refire rate improves and a little bit tighter on cone of fire bloom.
• Flak weapons (Skyguard and Bursters) no loger detonate on contact with the ground causing radius splash damage. The flak projectile will only detonate in the proximity to air vehicles or at the end of it's lifespan.
• Skyguard's ammo load out has been improved with significantly more flak ammunition.
• Capturing Core Combat Cavern zones will now grant Battle or Command experience.
• Increased SOI of Core Combat bases by 50% to cover a larger area of possible combat to count toward base hack exp.
