Actually I found out that a lot of people are turned off by Planetside 2 after their first session, which is completely understandable. They don't know where to go, they don't know where the fire is coming from, they don't know what to do and they get, at least that's how it appears to them, shot down in a second. The no tutorial hot drop randomly in the world part isn't very helping either. But once they get the hang of things and learn where to go and what to do, or even better, find a squad that does teamwork, the game experience improves immensely.
I think I'm getting a bit tired of the Assault Rifle I've been using exclusively on my medic, the SABR-13. It's a shame because I just spent 100 certs on the compensator >_>. I just don't dig the 2 round burst fire anymore, it's good for range but not that great for CQC. I really miss full auto, so I'm gonna get another gun.
In other news, think we hit the record on how many of us from the great Calradian RePublican Guard played yesterday in a platoon, there was 16 of us. It's good that Tomas took the initiative and actually led the platoon, otherwise people would be running left and right on their own. This reminds me, Tomas needs to put up priority speaker on TS, I'm hearing a lot of non-relevant chatter, which I don't mind, but when the platoon leader is speaking everyone should be able to hear him. It'll help organize faster.
Otherwise a good play session, even though I only stayed till the server restart. We're still slow on regrouping/gathering on points, but we'll iron that out.
For the Republic!
