I'm pretty much done...working two jobs and don't have time for gaming right now ;( So for me I say hang it up and move on.

i liking the hopper/dropper deal...can get some major mining ops going with that...how many times they gonna have to remove herobrine...he just keeps coming back.

Yeah sometimes when you die from the boss (obsidian bombs) the client crashes...has happened to me twice i think.

Nice job steel...I'll look forward to hearing Xray's sexy voice for the next one

Would say I'm a little jealous (which would be true)...but all said I'm content with my rig

lol steel....would be nice to work on those videos we've been talking about to answer some of those questions...

done...now i can buy some moar leather for books

I like it cold...this warm winter has been disappointing for me

You're in Sweden...I'm a little jealous.

Not me :0

SOE also just announced that they will be giving out double XP again from Friday the 21st to January 2nd. So if you want to upgrade some stuff get in game and rack up some certs.

For anyone who wanted to buy some station cash for in game currency, this Friday Dec. 21 is the day to do it. SOE is doing one of their triple station cash deals so you can get 3 times the in game currency that you would normally get. With this you can get that stylish zebra camo or even a set of those tight rims for your sundy at a nice price . Or if you prefer something functional you could purchase a better weapon and forgo the hours of playtime needed to unlock it with certifications.

Never heard of the song until this...must be out of touch with pop culture.

Ray Love you man

First official game update is out: http://forums.station.sony.com/ps2/index.php?threads/game-update-1.64525/ It is almost 3 gigs so for those of you with snail connections like me...start downloading now :/

For those of you having lag problems or poor performance: http://www.planetside-universe.com/showthread.php?postid=861845#post861845

Agreed he has been busy...my 3 hotels pale in comparison to the work accomplished here.

FYI sony is dishing out double XP this weekend for planetside 2. So, if you need to rack up some cert points to unlock some nice weapons for your Liberator or Magrider or Sunderer, this is the time to do it. I will likely be on for a few hours Saturday night and intermittently on Sunday, so hop in the TS3 channel and join us. On a side note if you are having lag issues on Windows 7, Steel has a cpu optimizer for the game that could increase your fps in tight battles by up to 20 frames. I will also note that I haven't experienced as much server side lag in the last week or so due to optimizations.

Someone needs to clean up the biome problems in and around the city. It looks terrible where it was snow and is now grasslands with all those squared off blocks and all: http://208.100.42.50:8123/?worldname=waterworld&mapname=flat&zoom=4&x=2179&y=64&z=2466# Gotta smooth out those edges and make it look natural if you are gonna change stuff with the terrain.

Good looking castle there.

Well i was all set to build some nice new roads (brick ones this time too instead of gravel) and rail system for you guys if you were to do a new city...but looks like that is out so i'll just hang around

In this issue of tutorials for PS2 we'll be going over some weapon logistics, certs, and aircraft. First, the weapon logistics: Now, the cert stuff: And the aircraft: Thanks for watching

FYI I have decided to start up an outfit for us idiots...simply dubbed Idiots. I decided not to make the outfit XI because the outfit will not be exclusive for members of XI. However, it will be primarily composed of XI and friends. If you would like an invite you can post your in game name here or add me to your friends in game and I will invite you asap. Here is a squad tutorial that may help with this and teamwork. We will be operating in squads (and platoons when we have more people) so try to get your mics up and running if you have them. We will be in TS3 mostly, but it is good to chat in game with the other squad mates: A nice starting video: The map: And lastly for today, spawning system: A couple of things to consider: 1. You must use certs on AMS (anvanced mobile spawn) for a sunderer (sundy) and equip it before you can spawn on the sundy. If you are with a squad that has a sundy deployed it will often be the most important part of the operation when capturing a facility...so make sure it is defended at all costs. Always have an engineer nearby to repair damage (particularly from aircraft). 2. It is nice to have a medic with each squad to revive dead friendlies, but if you are the medic try not to die or it is useless. 3. If you are infiltrator remember that you can hack enemy terminals to allow your team mates to resupply or even spawn vehicles in enemy bases.

Here is a reminder that we will be playing primarily as Vanu Sovereignty on the server Mattherson (US East). Remember to add me (Cygon) once you are logged in. Here is a tutorial for getting that started: And here is one to help with getting your settings going: And here is one that gives some class info: I would suggest that each person pick one class to specialize in primarily, plus one or two more to be proficient in. I would also recommend that each player pick a couple of vehicles to specialize in. You have to spend certs to upgrade and they don't come quickly...so if you try to spread them out all over you will never get ahead. Meanwhile, if you just pick one area to pour everything in you may not be very helpful in certain situations. I for one am pouring my certs into Light Assault primarily, with Heavy Assault and Engineer as back ups. For vehicles I am going very heavy with the Sunderer (for mobile spawning) and some towards a lightning tank with skyguard (for AA). It would be nice if we had some people who were proficient at flying aircraft (particularly the galaxy for dropping in infantry). As for the best class for your average player...Heavy assault. I'll add some more later.

Took me over 18 hours lol.
