Her hall is called Eljudnir,
her dish is Hunger,
her knife is Famine,
her slave is Lazy,
and Slothful is her woman servant.
Connery (US West) and Waterson (US East). Both NC. Didn't want to play the laser light show of the VS or join the TR zerg.
just been playing for a good few hours!
so much fun when i got into it. i got lucky and got into a good squad with a good leader, helped me out a lot since i was a total noob. the games got a good feel to it, we was going round in a squad taking different bases, while there was still a massive war waging on in background between everyone else.

Well, I never played fps at all before ps2 (except trying Quake once back in the past and my ex bf that I had then nerdraged because I managed to kill him and his friends laughed) but it's quite easy to get into. Sure hard to compete with aiming against childrens of fps but I get cp slow and steady. Got premium to boost it a little. Heavy assault is a nice starting class, but I guess for cp farming engineer or medic are better choices... or to rock around in vehicles. I want to learn to shoot though, so I heavy and sometimes MAX myself and try to knock some heads down :P
The render distance just ruins the game for me, i like to snipe from mid to long range, but i can't because game says i can't see enemies that far.
That's where you're wrong, it needs more range, the render distance is determined by how many people are in your area and decreases down to granade throw distance in a big battle, this means that a sniper rifle becomes next to worthless against any other weapon in the game.
What is your PC specs? My render distance does not change even when things start to heat up and its far better then "grenade throw" distance. GW2 had a hardware limiter coded into the game to prevent stutter on lower end machines, might be something similar here. There is also a render quality option in the settings menu that was on 100% for me.

They need to nerf a lot of Vanu shit stuff. Scythe maneuverability, You go in dog fight with it you always lose w/e you are flying with. Also there is overpowered gun I can't remember its name that shoots energy balls ppl start to purchase it with SC, It's freaking unbelievable how is this gun overpowered.
Seems you missed out on how to play Planetside. Lets leave the petty playground talk there shall we?
The current range is fine, i can already see and kill other people from 800 - 1000ish meters away, there is absolutely no need to increase that.
That may be the way you play but your not helping your team out much by doing so and you actually get less certs/points by playing that way, if that is what you enjoy then fair enough but it would go against the "team play" philosophy of the game if the devs where to encourage playing that way by changing the render distance.
i agree, ive been playing sniper a bit, i was giving a bit of over watch cover while my squad captured a base. there is really no reason to be that far away to shoot them. i spent most of my time as a sniper close to my squad, i would not have been much use if i was really far away.
That's not true at all. Maybe your pc is pretty bad, and you should upgrade. Because I have been in so many large battles and not had this issue at all.
EDIT:meh guess I'm wrong looking on the official forums. I haven't experienced this, maybe I'm just playing on a lower population server, and its not having the same impact /shrug.
