Speaking of performance, I wish I were able to fight on Indar. Seems to be the only continent with any real fighting going on, but sadly my fps just dies in those large engagements. Meanwhile esamir plays very well but is dominated by Vanu and amerish is pretty much abandoned outright.
Flying with low fps is just impossible, I had to give up after crashing my fourth reaver when making a bombing run on enemy armor in a heated battle. fps just drops to a frame every fifth second or something silly when diving in, probably due the wonky rendering... To say nothing of even trying to hit enemy planes with fps below 10, ugh.

Arf again, did they release a patch recently? I'm flying in amerish with a solid 40 fps, I go to intercept a liberator and suddenly my framerate drops to like one frame every two seconds. I promptly crashed into a fucken cliff. That can't be normal and it's happening all the time.
Starting to suspect hacks at this point, it always happens once I engage the enemy and am at an advantage. Definatly not fun.

Heh, something else fun is when you're dogfighting in your ESF and you get the screen flicker bug. Or the never-ending lockon telltale bug. Or both at the same time.

I hate that screen flicker. It always trolls me when I need it the least.

Anyone know a good outfit on Matherson? Its a great server with good balance on all the continents and I joined because I thought B12 players were going there. At this point I have substantial enough investment into my Light Assault that I intend to stay.

I need a good outfit to join with if anyone knows any.

Well, B12 has an outfit. I'm currently in TAS but I really enjoy MU platoons led by Synth3tic.

If you're talking NC, there is a ~9 member B12 outfit.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

Shush, don't tell everyone!!!!

Now we just need the render distance fixed, I don't like the fact that I can watch a Flash and rider through the scope, then the rider gets off and becomes invisible, but the Flash is still there.  (Or any vehicle really: you can see a vehicle being repaired, but can't see the engineer, its so frustrating)

Have been asking around and checking around forums regarding the crippling lagg when targeting someone and apparently it's not a to uncommon occurance, so it can't be my specs causing it. Might indeed be a hack since it's only when targeting specific players and the problem vanishes when they die. Can't say for sure of course, but I'm not playing until it gets sorted either way.  >:(
The hacking problem is sort of getting out of hand, coupled with the ghost continents it's a bit of a buzzkill...

Wh? That may be an explanation for the random lag I've been having...

I watched a VS guy yesterday. He was obviously hacking. He was standings till, but he was flickering/vanishing, so half the time he wasn't actually there. As an experiment, I shot at him once and the shot passed through him. Then he ran out and killed a ton of people, just standing there while they tried to shoot back.

Finally I blew him up with a grenade and he sent me "WTF NOOB?" or something like that.

Why can't people just play?

NC got a continent on Cobalt!

Not sure how it happened but we got Amerish sometimes between last night and today. Still getting buttraped on the other two servers, TR has higher pops than anyone else but not high enough to warrant any pop bonuses for us (not that that 1-2% is of any help) but their Indar and Esamir pops are a good 20% above ours allowing for some easy stomping.

Meanwhile it seems most of NC is on the almost empty Amerish which gives the meh bonus of 10% off of Air :I
