Free-to-play based on teamplay and tactics.

In the end, it'll just be who is more prepared and has a better strat. So, basically not us as we're basically making teams/squads on the fly ;) Granted we have the better FCs and a greater variety of battle tested strats. I expect Armored Shield and Karkand Infantry will be the hardest. Armored Sh...

it's gonna be a tough fight. what about those who are in the reddit team and GC (like daskro)? well they will have a hard time picking a side :P Woah woah woah. Don't go giving them crazy ideas like they have a "choice". I motion to ban, from GC, anyone who plays for team reddit on Nov 4t...

I went where the reddit outfit went, TCZapper/VS/Metis. I'm open to an NC on an east server if there are more GC people, but VS will always be my main.

Setting up a google doc form for who is playing would be a good idea. Don't know how though :S I have NC and VS on East 02 that I never use, I am mostly VS on West 01 (BR11). At this point I'm unlikely to use other factions for more than just entertainment purposes. The TR tank is pathetic and I nev...

IGN is currently giving away beta access to anyone with an account: All gone?
http://au.ign.com/prime/promo/planetside2

You can also buy the $40 founders pack for beta access. I did, so I don't need my IGN key if anyone wants it.

While I really would like to do it, I do not have the time for it and I think it would be hard for me to be in that sort of position and not temper myself to GC's culture of a casual and super serious mix. As other GC folks who have played with me in a squad I have an expectation of high proficienc...

Okay, I did fullmetaljacket's way using the code he provided, thanks. Final cost: $36 due to an additional 20% discount (it seems to be a "flash" deal so I don't know how long they'll have it). The 4 pack is kinda useless considering greenmangaming since steam would only save 25% with a 4 ...

Situational anti-air maybe? I'll just run a javelin, as the only situation where javelin doesn't work is when it's unsafe to get out, and that was primarily for tank vs tank fights which will never use guided now anyway. At least canister may still have a place in the battlefield, but I echo my ear...

Yep, from what I've seen, canister is basically an alternate for tank shells now, you can swap instantly but both reload if you fire either. Guided shells don't need to be reloaded after firing a tank shell, but firing them does require a reload of the main tank shell. Why the hell would anyone run ...

No nerf to IFV's APFSDS (80% damage from 6 to the side of an MBT is ridiculous), yet now I have to deal with whatever fraking reload change they've made. Wish they were more clear on what they did :( It seems that they haven't really touched the switching time, which would have been the better fix (...

Good trailer. I played the original to very near the end, playing mostly with my roommate (we moved out before finishing and never picked it up again). Definitely a good game, though the sniper was fraking terrible as anyone shooting at you would make it impossible to aim. SMG all the way. I still h...

Personally, I think 3d spotting is good for BF3 (though I would change some implementation stuff) but the reasoning is not relevant to GC. Without 3d spotting there is almost no method of conveying enemy locations to pubbies. The minimap just doesn't have the same range or enemy where near a similar...

I'd be concerned for delays and effort setting it up. How easy is it to add people right before? How easy to swap people? Also: Before the Match begins players may engage in a Warm-up Phase where no kills or points are counted. The Match will stay in this state until all participating players have s...

I bought Arma 2 just to play this, and to frak around with other stuff. God though does the Arma 3 stuff look nice. I wish I was more interested in Arma-style gameplay.

Well we have agreements to not use things, so if some weapon were OP to an annoying extent, then we could make a new one. As far as I've heard, none of the new weapons are amazing, but still decent. The ones that shine are the AUG as a faster L85, and the M417 as a higher damage, slower ROF SKS. Any...
