1: NC

2: NC and TR

3: NC, TR and Vanu

Its hard to judge whether or not someone is serious with a post like that, I cannot read minds. Apologies if I came off overly harsh.

The last sentence...

[Graknorke]

HEY GUYS...
Remember how we were talking about the ZOE and how VS says that its totes balanced, I mean not just the strafing but the damage boost too...
Check out the results of ZOE + the Upcoming Flamethrower...

Yep nothing wrong here. SoE knows exactly what they are doing when the Balance anything in this game...

So once you got over your alarmist fit, did you realize that it was a bug on a test server? That isn't uncommon.

Ok Sorry I forgot to add the /sarcasm to the end of that post... FFS...

Actually you'd need two sarcasm tags. One for criticizing the balance of ZOE Max and one to show that that was sarcastic.

ZOE honestly needs a timer like the HA shield and the incoming damage increase should be increased to actually be significant.

Give the thing a damn timer, and I think it will fix it.

Hey all! I was crazy about this game on release, but gaming interest wandered away from MMO's... and I have not played since the new year.

I have been tempted to go back in, but I'm intimidated by the changes.

So uh... can anyone sum up for me what has changed?

Altough then VS will complain that the others don't have a timer etc etc.

[Spaghetti7]

If you haven't played since the new year, you've missed (among random patches and hotfixes) Game Updates 2 through 10. I'll give ya an outline:

GU2: Quite dull, only thing of real note is the change to XP, so you get more or less depending on how well that person was doing in that life. Oh, and surface-to-air damage XP.

GU3: Bug fixes and UI changes. Meh.

GU4: Virtual Reality training area added, fo' testing things, and a module for infils on Flashes allowing them to be invisible.

GU5: Unlocks made with SC made available to all characters on the same account. Oh, and new helmets. Wooh.

GU6: Daily achievable service ribbons worth moderate amounts of XP added. Alerts to capture continents which give huge XP boosts also came in

GU7: Mostly balance things, but also gave more detailed stats for weapons and added revolvers.

GU8: Added the Harasser, a 3 person buggy, along with some new MAX weapons.

GU9: Changed Indar to work on a hybrid lattice system, whereby you can only take certain places depending on ones you already own. MAXs also got more stuff, with some crazy new ability things that are specific to each faction.

GU10: Added new alerts (such as capture all the biolabs on x continent) as well as the usual balancing and bug fixing.

Hope that got you up to speed.

[CognitiveDissonance]

Hope that got you up to speed.

Yes, thank you! That is... a lot less intimidating than I expected.

I'll have to run the updater, and get my gunfire fix soon. Thanks again!

I hope you're not NC, because they got a LOT of nerfs.

Has anyone else noticed that they do passes on the balance and attractiveness of the factions? As in they'll focus on a faction for a long period of time, then stop and work on another. Lately, the focus has been VS. TR had a very early pass, but short since they were already the 4th faction also. NC had a lengthy pass, with a pass of regression, where they'd overbuffed early on. Now they're definitely laying it on thick with the VS. We're likely to see much nerfing.

I could be wrong but that's how I saw the shifts of attention

[Darkening Kaos]

NC may as well be equipped with these..........

Not my collection, just a random picture off the net.

[Ozyton]

I haven't played this in so long. I would love to play organized sessions with groups of people but I don't know how I feel about doing it with some random guys.

I did play NC because that's what our little group decided to play as. If I had to pick another faction it would be TR simply because I don't really like the Vanu's aesthetic...

I like the way the NC's guns handled, though I haven't tried the other factions.

[darkrider2]

I like oodles and oodles of recoil the way the NC's guns handled, though I haven't tried the other factions.

ftfy >_>

I'm liking the station alerts a lot more than the continental alerts.

Last night I helped defend Kwahtee during an amp station alert. The TR held for a good hour and a half, against multiple pushes from the NC and the VS. I got third on the scoreboard with that, and got 150 certs from the fight. (The TAR is pretty good.)

Just now the TR won a Biolab alert, by capturing Mani Bio Lab with about twenty seconds left to spare. The NC were desperate to push out from the teleporter rooms, and even the VS started attacking the lab to prevent the TR from capping.

I think these new alerts are, dare I say it, fun.

[Graknorke]

TR win all of every alert.
It is inescapable.
