I'm enjoying the game a lot less since Amerish came out. With three continents to split between people, I keep feeling like I can't find where the real action is... And when I do it's all aircraft. I just witnessed three dual burster MAXes firing on a reaver for a good 5 seconds, only to have the reaver launch a salvo of rockets to kill 4 people and hover behind a wall, surviving. I'm sure they'll tweak aircraft/AA again but I'm just having a hard time enjoying things now.

Also, all infantry have shotguns now with the cert bonus. Defending against 6 people rolling out shotguns is incredibly frustrating- even using a MAX with dual gatlings and four ranks of the infantry armor a single shotgun wielding heavy can take out 70% or more of your HP before he goes down. It takes longer to get that damage repaired than for the dead heavy to respawn, I kid you not.

Yeah the aircraft seem incredibly durable. My skyguard-equipped lightning, a weapon designed specifically for AA, pounded on a liberator for half a minute straight without doing appreciable damage. The lib was hovering over our base raking people with fire while I was doing this, so it wasn't server lag or anything. I spent half my ammo and didn't kill the thing. Later a mossy came over and plinked at my tank, so I lit him up with a constant stream of fire. I hit him with well over 50 shots and he was barely halfway through his armor.

I gotta say though, the night vision enhancement is the best damn thing ever. You can see EVERYTHING, and it works even during the day making things very easy to pick out. I wish there was a toggle for it though.

I'm loving the Hawk. Just bought it today, it is AWESOME.

Oh, and i finally catched how to c4 lightnings/magriders. Incredibly efficient.


One weird thing about this game is that when you first start playing it, you feel like everyone is alot more powerfull then you and that you're underpowered. That goes away after a few days.

sounds like that update will be good, and adding some reason to capture a map.  I don't think I will like the change to exp required for certs but it may be fine in the long run...

I never saw you ask for help. You just posted that your video card sucks.

Go get a better one.

I belive he was referring to this.

Question: do any of you know what error G25 is? I try to get on and when the splash page appears it crashes and sends me to the website with the error on it.

Not sure why so hostile, obviously none of us knew what it was, and didn't want to post just to say "no idea, blar blar blar"
Also, 'blar' is infinitley more fun to write than blah.
