2. Weapons (station cash) and Scopes for Carbine, LMG and sniper rifle
3. Anti-Vehicle MANA Turret
4. MAX 2nd AA gun (station cash)
5. Nano Armor Kit (repair tool certs)

Going to focus mainly on certs for LA (C4, Jumpjets, Lynx, etc) and then probably move on to buffing up my Mosquito.

I had every intention of going full on Infiltrator in this game....but C4 + Jumpjets is too damn fun!

Don't have a specific list but I know some early picks....ish.

What I want to try and do is alternate something that's good for me with something that's good for the empire/outfit/squad. Can't play PS whatever the number after it without being a bit of a support nutjob.

Intend to save back some of the Smed' bucks that come with the sub' in case any goodies turn up in a month or so, like Buggies.

Cert wise i'll be grabbing S-AMS followed by Resto Kits, then Reflex Sights.

SC wise i'll be grabbing a second Burster arm, Shotguns, an Rocket Pods. Would like to buy some of the vehicle weapons but i'm expecting lots of nerfs, and rebalancing to those once they are in wide circulation. Want to see where the chips fall before I spend anything.

ringring · 2012-11-17, 02:26 PM

I have a fairly short 'things to buy list' this consists of the anti-armour rockets and either the anti-air rockets or the other arm for the burster.

With certs it's reflex, supressor and forward grip for the trac, cycler and carv and also the armour and the health tool buffs.

I may buy the AV gun for the tank and I'll use certs to improve the ammo carries and to reduce the reload time.

I'd would have wanted to add in the mines for the engy, but at present they're not woth it.

AThreatToYou · 2012-11-17, 02:26 PM

First thing I'm getting is Heavy Scout Rifle.

No scope sway, sniper. Epic.

Or am I? I think I'll have to think it over!

Sifer2 · 2012-11-17, 02:30 PM

Yeah that's a good point. Funny they never added any sway for the other guns. Really should be applied to all guns, and slighty reduce the bullet spread.

Whoah, depends who you're playing against. I had no better use in the last week or so of beta than to constantly blow all my infantry resources on the AP mines and they would rack up a ton of kills.

Last night before the server went pop we were being kicked by a big old TR zerg at Indar Exec'. I sat up in the spawn room dropping mines down through the shields. So many kills. Got one kill, group of medics ran forward to rez' the bugger, few more kills and so on and so forth. Real...

....stuff. Not to mention all the other kills I had with them in that last week, great in Bio lab's, pretty much any infantry fight. You can whack 'em down on the corner of a building, run out and shake your arse at someone and leg it back around the corner and a few seconds later, easy kill.

Tooterfish · 2012-11-17, 02:33 PM

Zebra camo.

Muro · 2012-11-17, 02:58 PM

Chinchy · 2012-11-17, 02:59 PM

Hearts for my liberator

Lonehunter · 2012-11-17, 03:04 PM

I've added up everything I MUST have to be like 5-6k Station Cash.

All air fighter weaponry
All Sniper Rifles
A Pistol
About 4-5 Vehicle Turrets

Which still leaves me with like 15k station cash to spend lol. I plan on getting some camos too

Sawboss · 2012-11-17, 03:07 PM

Mossie rocket pods.
2nd MAX cycler.
Then just putting all my certs into engi and prowler stuff.
I like a bit of everything.

Minor · 2012-11-17, 03:12 PM

With 5000 smedbucks I will get:

Liberator
Tank buster canon (250)
Zepher (700)
W40 Walker (500)
Total: I did the math in game that came up with 1300SC

Infantry
Heavy battle rifle (700) -> No stats on this in game, I gotta guiney pig this.
AA launcher (700) -> keeps the flies off my back at least.

So I still have 1300SC left over for a chaingun if necessary or more camo, masks etc.

As for certs:
Liberator:
High speed airframe
Chaff (until I unlock the 1000 cert afterburner)
Zepher zoom (high altitude, high energy, precision bombing)
Tank buster zoom
Composite armor
zepher mag increase (if available)

Infantry (main is HA, engineer for vehicles & farming)
Engineer repair gun
nanoweave armor (1-3)
Battle rifle grip, compensator, x4 scope (maybe x6)
LMG T50 (included in alpha) compensator, grip x2 reflex
HA resist shield
max nanoweave
medikits (very important)

Flash (optional)
I may spend 250SC on a Flash kobalt MG a
stealth
scout radar
handling

Thats most of what I want to slowly get. I have the alpha pack but sudden unemployment leaves me in the dust for cert gain. At least I start with the guns I want.
