Cert gain is for everyone, but word was that people who paid would get a higher rate.

That wll be for release. Those who buy the subscription membership will get 50% increased cert gain, XP and resource income.

edit: the map seems to be a lot laggier now that it has the animated border around territory controled by each faction.

Servers dropped.
Over and over. Apparently this has happened before and ended up with the servers being taken for a couple of hours.

I got on for a few mins messing around with stuff. Maxed the medic tool, and wow that sucker resurrects people fast when maxed out. It's like 2 seconds and done. I managed to run in and res 4 guys while under heavy fire before I died, then those four popped up and took out the three guys who got me and one of em resed me back.

The pitcher thing that lets you throw grenades faster is nice too. Got jumped by three guys and was able to whip around and chuck a grenade right onto them. They killed me before it went off, but I got two of them in the blast and critically wounded the third (got crit assist bonus when the guy behind me shot him).

Hehe, looks like they gave us another 10000 certs.
Or is that just because its a day ago that i played it and that you earn certs while not online?

They turned up cert gain like crazy to let people test them all out this week. Yeah, I had 10k of them after a couple of days of not playing one character.

Currently you are gaining 1 cert per 15-20 seconds including when you are offline. Assuming that the higher level certs remain at similar costs to their current value once they do the rebalance next week and that the certs not yet added in are similarly costed, it will cost somewhat more than 100,000 certs to fully cert everything. Assuming that passive cert gain is reduced to 1 point per hour it will take something in excess of 11 years to fully cert a character off of passive certs, ignoring any future certs that may be added.

You will have to jump on at the same time as one of us who can invite you, currently the game doen't allow for invites to be sent while you are offline.

There is another character wipe scheduled for the end of this week. Are we going to wait a day or two before reforming the outfit to see which server isn't horribly unbalanced?

Agreed with warhammer.
What if they increased active cert gain to 2 per capture?

Also, does 100,000 points include nanoweave armor?
Because that is easily 10,000 you can spend on it for medic.
