Good to see you again Minigun, I remember you in Obsol33t Gods! I might try to get the outfit back up and running when PS1 goes fully free to play.

Remember when you actually could run from them?

March is almost over, not very long till PS2 goes F2P.

I have seen absolutly nothing done to tacke the cheater problem. Not by you guys (have you even tried?), not by SOE.

Have fun. Death will be quicky and painless, delivered from a flying scatmax.

What kind of dumbass post is that?

"Not by you guys (have you even tried?)"

Please, expand on that line of awesome thought process and explain exactly how 'you guys' resolved ANY hacking in ANY game since like, forever.

Explain to us common folk how exactly YOU solved the hacking in ANY game you've played. Lets go with the most current one, PS2. How pray tell, did you, being all awesome and stuff, resolve the hacking that was sweeping thru that dog shit pile of a game when it was so prevalent.

The rest of the post I'll agree with though. SOE isn't going to do squat about it, and yes, flying scatmax and underground vanguards will be visible from time to time in the short time this F2P will be going with anyone around.

Don't mind basti. He's just constantly being an ass in the PS1 section with every single post he makes and seems to hold a grudge against people who like the game...or the game itself...or whatever might be wrong with him.

Baneblade · 2014-03-20, 09:44 PM

Don't worry, he is talking about PS2 apparently.

No worries hunt unlike 2 years ago when my computer ran ps1 at 40 fps i went out and bought a i7 4770k with a gtx geforce 780k. Also a redswitch k70 and a kone xtd. So i won't be running around with very laggy slow manchine i will be running around with something that runs ps2 at 60fps streaming in 1080p. So we will see whos making who run. I also will be live streaming my gameplays so you can see everytime i kill you. Over and over and over again

The official date for F2P has been edited in the official post. Instead of April 2nd it is now "April 16th or sooner". So it could still possibly go F2P April 2nd. It's still strange for them to push the date back.

I might give it a whirl. Anyone recommend any good guides etc that might cut down on the learning curve?

- Always flip on 3rd person before going around a corner.
- Always have a med pack on a handy key and use it whenever you are engaging someone.
- Jack hammer is close range, MCG is medium and lasher is inbetween.
- there are 5 armour types. pj's - you come out of the spawns as these, medium - you need these to drive and you can equip 1 full size weapon, rexo - heavy - you can equip 2 full sized weapons, cloaker - not a sniper and has a small inventory, max - max.
- new characters are given a starting number of certs plus you can go into VR, try every gun and vehicle to get some more. This should be enough for you to make a start.
- doors have locks, you need a rek to hack doors. You also need a rek to hack a base or tower which is done at the CC.
- you blow generators up by destroying them (but it's a good idea not to do that otherwise the fight will probably end too soon)
- xp is gained by kills, base captures and base resecures, you don't get xp by either destroying or repairing wall turrets nor vehicle and equip terms, you only do that if it's a good idea when you want to deny the enemy's use of them.

Lastly, be warned. Although there is a level playing field as far as guns and weapons and armour, your fellow players will have an advantage due to greater knowledge. Also, as I implied above the different empire weapons are differentiated and have different pro's and cons.

Yea Basti, you were so pro-PS1 and now you slag it off like its the worst game ever.

Can you just either not post here or have some positivity like you had when PS1 was doing ok please?

Hey look it's that guy that posts for no other reason than to be a massive cunt.

I have done things to tackle the cheater problem myself though, even if it was all futile video recording in the end.
