Is the Sunderer an exception?

I mean, any angle, any approach, the thing is so hard to bring down, but a heavy, firepower based Mammoth goes down from 2 mags in the back? lol

Yeah I love nailing infantry with it as well, it's great fun. I also tend to fly it more like a helicopter, so I got Hover Stability Airframe. Love it.

The Sunderer takes the same amount of damage from behind, but a Sunderer has a lot more meat (HP). They could also be using extra armor.

Using the Hover Stability Airframe as well, rank 2 right now. It's an awesome thing, the better airbrake is awesome for dogfights.

Ah, I see.

I decided to stick with TR really, because all the other empire's ESF's.. they are okay, but I hate aiming at Mozzies!  :mrgreen:

Seriously they're such a small target compared to the other ones.  :wink:

I think Scythes are the best ESF, at least when it comes to dogfights, they seem to have better maneuverability. Also we should do a joint air ops or something one day. Much better when you have another friendly ESF covering your ass :D

I love blasting Scythes to pieces. So big targets to shoot at.

Sure, we should do it between holidays or something, but bear in mind I lag like crazy around bases, atm I fly with with rendering of 500, but I can still kick ass.

Might fiddle around with the rendering because I got killed by AA that wasn't even on the screen once. Balls.
SOE should gieb optimization update for xmas :3 I know it'll come in January but would be awesome.

Again reminder, only today you can buy three times the Station Cash for money. So if you ever thought about spending some money on PS2, now is the time to do it.

Bought 7500 SC myself lol.

Probably vehicle pack, even though I already have 2 items from that pack bought separately :/

Gonna buy AA missiles probably and some other vehicles weapons or something. Not even sure yet. Perhaps even XP booster for these 7 days of double xp.

I would do some calculations before considering xp boosters. If you play like 20 hours over the whole double xp event, how much certs will a booster give you ?

That's overkill IMO. I only bought the infantry starter pack and the vehicule starter pack (total 4000SC) and I honestly don't feel underpowered compared to people that have everything, except the c150 dalton for the liberator.

I would even say the infantry starter pack is not really a good deal, stock weapons being almost the same (they are more balanced but you can't place the fourth attachment) as locked ones, except the TR semi auto sniper which is IMO invaluable if you play infiltrator at all.

I bought Alpha Pack, 10$ couple weeks later then 20$ yesterday.

Barely spent any money and it was spread out over many months and now I'm set to get what I want when I play.
