I was always a master at aiming the base rocket launcher. I used to send rockets across the Crown valley to kill tanks shooting across, and I usually hit. Mainly because they never expected me to actually be able to aim a rocket across the valley. I really don't know why I even bothered switching, probably because I thought the AT launcher would be just as good and better. (Which it was, for a while...)

.......{AA Rocket - Hawk - Questions}...........
Shooting from one of the defensive towers outside the NC warpgate on Esamir, I aimed the AA rocket at the window of the hut just off the road, the rocket did not drop and exploded inside the building.  How much damage it did is still up for conjecture, but I was launching rockets at damaged Scythes and the rocket pursues them for ages and still hits them unless they have counter-measures.  Managed to get a few kills like this today.

We need a post with a roster somewhere, and you can try friendinging/telling anyone on that list, that'll let you know who is online.

Who is currently active and in charge of this whole thing?

I have made a spreadsheet so we can get a hold of how many players we have that are from B12. And I guess we can use it for other things too.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmqRIjfuhTTJdFJPRFh3ZGNaZGFCTXNmQlY0YWw3LVE#gid=0

Can the OP or Girlinhat stick the link on the front page?

Does that help guys?

That one's horribly outdated, and doesn't say who is in the outfit and who isn't...

Thebe was down when I first logged on, so I made a Vanu char on Lysithea. First time I ever really seriously played a Vanu char, and the first time I drove a magrider long enough to realize how amazing they are. So damned maneuverable, and they take to hills like a mountain goat. Having a hand at the wheel of one makes me realize just how incompetent most magrider pilots are.

Played a couple hours in one, got in and out of a lot of very hot situations that my vanguard definitely wouldn't have survived. Never did get killed, although I came very close numerous times. Dodging tank shells and rockets, strafing tanks to peg them in the back, mowing over infantry. At one point I slammed into an NC sunderer and just mowed around it running over the infantry as they spawned while I shelled it. By the end I was very very near death from a few determined heavies' rockets, but I survived - and got at least 15 kills in the process. Granted, the sunderer was in a pretty open space that let me just strafe around it and crush everyone - but I couldn't have done that in a vanguard. Those poor engineers trying to repair the sunderer just got squished between the sundy and my magrider.

I'm laughing so hard at this. I wonder if you can get a sunderer on there, or what happens if you deploy a prowler. Will it just slide off?

A deployed prowler would probably slide off, yes. The undeployed one had to move itself to 'keep up' with the Galaxy. They managed to bring it up to one of the biodomes, though. The trip was so slow that it would be practically useless unless you had early warning.

So angry right now, so much BS from the most recent act of holding Havar Tech Plant. Scythes one hitting me while dodging out of my AArockets with ease, those that get hit disappear to safety at over half health. Get the drop on countless TR and VS yet I the one dieing As soon as they turn Around. ALL armour and Sun dies are outside my ATrocket range and my mouse dodging the 4 pixels needed to be targeted for a dumb fire to hit...

Gay... I hope my future upgrade to my PC helps fix some problems....

Are any of you playing on the EU servers? I'm currently inhabiting the Eurydome one. I'm still playing TR, for the motherlands. I'm really enjoying the mossy. Real fun when it comes to dog fighting scythes, I tend to be able to keep toe to toe with them only for another 8 of them to come and spoil the fun : (

I'm having absurd fun with my new computer that can actually run PS2. Even though I'm only getting 30FPS in major battles, which is rubbish considering.

Alsooo, sorry about the constant plugging. But if b12ers don't have an EU TR outfit and want one then come along to my clans first proper games night on PS2. http://www.nimbleminds.eu/forum/index.php?page=CalendarViewEvent&eventID=301 We're going to be recruiting all night, doing ops and generally having a chill time.

The menu feels like it is rendering at a high framerate, higher than I remember... how is my FPS in-game now? Answer, about the same.

Note to self: equipt the items you get from certs, and check if they are items and not upgrades to current equipment.

Hmm, I seem to be halfway decent at sniper, long range combat is more my style I think, less danger to myself and the snipers usually are quite powerful compared to the other guns. (per hit)
