Just got done playing for now. The construction system has the potential for some intense fights. Too bad a few vanu glitched underneath the map with one of the infinite ammo weapons, ruining the fight.

Meanwhile on amerish, me and a random vanu buddy chased off a lightning after it blew up my ant. Fun system so far.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

It does seem a bit fun. Took me awhile to figure out how to supply a silo(tip: drive up and shoot the silo with the mining beam). Managed to kill a VS ANT by ramming it with my own after it had been shot up by a friendly Liberator... then I drove into a pond and died, crediting the ANT driver I killed with my death.

well im out again, I can grumble through 15 fps, but assoon as a firefight starts that drops to 5. seems to be locked to cpu, unparking processor cores didnt do jack shit.

its weird, I remember I was able to play this game on the very same laptop ages ago... I mean I have 161 hours logged to it, so it mustn't have been this unplayable on the wayback.

Could it be dust causing overheating or something? I've had performance losses over months/years that are not related to particular games on some computers and cleaning them out usually helped things run better.

Maybe you played during the OMG update where they optimized the game greatly... then undid a load of changes because apparently some people's toasters started catching fire.

I just spent like 2 hours driving around a tiberium harvester and delivering resources to silos while some PHX guys explained how new stuff works on emerald.

Finally I can contribute to NC without needing to be a competent shot! (I play archer engie simply because at least maxes and vehicles are big hard to miss targets)

Oh wait, they are not tiberium harvesters?  My bad. :P

if he didn't describe the cores as dragonballs, you got a less entertaining explanation than I did, you NC :P

Hell, they're far, far more maneuverable than any Tiberium harvester I've ever seen.

I don't remember the exact quote but I specifically remember something along the lines of Protect the explode-y ball of death if you don't you will explode.

I feel like there's an actual front in the war now. I just had the pleasure of trying to attack a biolab with a massive base ten feet behind it.

Did the base have a HIVE in it, or was it one of those 'this is our spot now, lets build a huge base' bases?

Was it the same biolab I was trying to attack? I gave up when the squad and platoon leaders started placing the waypoints in seemingly random locations despite the full-on biolab assault going on. And I was racking up more kills than usual, with a battle rifle even.

Now that I think about it, weren't there supposed to be more resources than just Cortium? Did they get scrapped?

Ugh. I can't seem to get the hang of air vehicles no matter what I do. I always end up getting immediately shot down in any scenario where I can be useful at all. And in dogfights and really any combat in general I can never actually tell where I'm being shot at from and keep on losing on track of my opponents.

You should really look to the wilderness for your stealth ideas, it has been doing it much longer than you have after all. Take squids for example, that ink trick works pretty well, and in water too! So you just sneak into the dam upsteam, dump several megatons of distressed squid into it, then break the dam. Boom, you suddenly have enough water-proof stealth for a whole city!
