Hello people, juts wandering can someone give me some info on the game as I've not play PS since it was still Beta. And what server and which sides to go for as I'm out of the game for so long. Any info would be welcomed.

Emerald is the one with the idiots on the TR. Thats really all ya gotta know.

TR are worst empire right now getting buffed.
NC are most powerful, getting nerfed a tad bit.
VS are in the middle getting buffed.

Head to Emerald for the much larger fights, but don't fret about having to /ignore half your CR5's; there are many retards among them. Currently, as Peacemaker, the NC is the most equal pig, so if you head there you'll get a nice Jackhammer, and if you don't, you'll get a Jackhammer in the ass from a Surge Monkey (Note to self: you're scaring him). Thats all, folks... err, folk, err...

New vehicles: the Skyguard, Liberator, and Lodestar.

The Skyguard is a mobile Anti-Air platform with with a driver and gunner. The gunner has access to a small machine gun for infantry and a large flak cannon for aircraft.

The Liberator is a three-man bomber, crewed with a pilot, bombadier, and a tailgunner. The pilot can use a forward-firing 35mm cannon to do very heavy damage against tanks. The bombadier can release either cluster bombs for infantry or armor-piercing bombs for tanks and such. The tail gunner is positioned in a 25mm cannon for fending off Reavers and Mosquitos.

Finally, the Lodestar lets you transport any vehicle in the game, including AMSes. Pretty slow and unarmed, but very useful nonetheless.

Don't buy CC, it is a ginormic waste of $30.00. They added both the Liberator Bomber and the Skyguard AA Buggy since you were gone, as well as the Lodestar Vehicle transport. I assume you were around after the flamethrower was changed into the Jackhammer?

Server doesnt matter

Gallan · 2004-02-16, 04:49 PM

I think I just started playing when they have the jackhammer. I was NC when I played cause I've found TR is full of idiots and kids, VS weapons firing rate is too slow, So i went for NC cause their MAX suit was fun

. So all I need is lots of action

Good Call!

Pick the server with the lowest ping. Emerald is east coast U.S., Markov is west coast U.S., and Werner is Europe. You can have characters from all 3 empires on the same server, so try them all out and pick whichever one you like best.

MidnightDave · 2004-02-16, 05:07 PM

gigabein wrong, u can pick characters from 2 make that 2 empires on the same server, I would like it to be 3 so I can have good ping for all empires on markov but its only 2.

edit: why in the hell arent my br's updating on my sigs I made br9 on the nc one and br15 the other day on my tr one, freaking odd.
