So, gave it another go today, made some 200-300 certs (XP is BIG), had great fun overall. Performance is definitely better now than it was before :)

I think I got bored of this game because as shown here it all ends up being about people grinding certs, as after playing so many of the same kinda battles the excitement of it wears off and I found myself just looking to get moar certs. Dont get me wrong its a decent game but for me I feel there's something missing and I cant really put my finger on it, could just be me thats the problem but hey ho. Usually load up and play for a few hours once in a while but not much beyond that.

I feel the same to be honest. Still a great game, but I feel people are looking for big battles and certs rather than playing in a more genuinely enjoyable way. Playing any kind of air vehicule is really different though so I frequently do that.

There are a lot of action in this game but somehow i like sniping more. Find a good spot, start shooting, drink your coffee, laugh at the pms which tells you that you are cheater etc etc... Change your spot if you are spotted once. I want to try VS sniper(Parallax) cause i've read few info about it. It was saying there isn't bullet drop on VS snipers.

Bolt action VS snipers do have bullet drop, but some like the Spectre what you start out with, has none.

I did that a lot back when we were too stupid to use the belly gun for AA. Collisions are not the ideal way to dispose of ESF unless your gunner is on the tail gun for some reason. Although it's true it's much more fun.

it's planetside 2 logic, one does not start with an understanding of planetside logic.

Congratulations for creating the first PlanetSide 2 joke that no PlanetSide 2 player will understand :lol:

It is now the NC is FOTM and a nerf deserves!  :mrgreen:

I'd still kill for a Scythe

guess why I have a VS alt.

Mag and Scythe are tons of fun to play around with. Prowler is meh, Mossie is very good.

I prefer Mossi because in scythe you can't see to your sides because of the wing. Otherwise it's really cool.

Try to do this reliably with a different ESF
