#Tutorial #Planetside2 #Cyrious
The hardest pill of them all has to be: "There is not going to be a Planetside 3". The closest thing we'll probably ever see to something similar will be another Battlefield game. There are some people still huffing that last drop of copium from the tank, but it's time to come back to reality. Just enjoy Planetside 2 while it's here.
I'm content with ps2 sticking around and getting updates every now n then. As long as they don't hurt the longevity of an already decaying game.
But Daybreak confirmed in 2019 that Planetside 3 will appear... 🤡
Any PS1 vets remember what the game was like right before PS2 was announced?
@@alexvandenheuvel4757 i do they have ruined it forever
New engine with the same game at least?
"Like TR's the best faction ever, they've got the chaingun." In my experience, the chaingun's primary ability is to cause all enemy rounds in the hex to converge on my skull as soon as I pull the trigger.
Run the chaingun with sidewinder and laser. It's absurdly good.
@@DFlaminberry ^THIS. It becomes so much more powerful with the sidewinder implant and laser. You will be winning 9/10 1v1 engagements. Just fire from the hip and move, people don't know what to do with that
It’s my working hypothesis that every weapon feels more powerful when you’re on the receiving end.
I mean just the other day I was told my faction’s weapons were too easy to use when I gunned a guy off his Flash with my NS-66 punisher.
It holds up. By their nature, guns are designed to have one end be more painful than the other.
It's mostly due to the fact that you face more bullet from those guns than what you can fire.
(more people equal more bullet)
I recommend watching "the wiggle that killed tarkov". Its probably one of those videos that have gotten people's paranoia about cheaters on edge. I personally dont think planetside's situation is as bad as tarkov's since they have literal discord servers filled with thousands of cheaters who have downloaded hacks, but after watching vids like that the feeling never goes away.
I can confirm this, Tarkov's anticheat is laughable.
Yes, I'm sure a F2P game has less cheaters than Tarkov.
@@Garrumx more like this game isn't popular enough to warrant investment of costly cheats for the majority of the user base compared to games like tarkov or overwatch
Those games have famous cheat engines named and developed specifically for them.
As a playstation player been playing consistently since 2015 been running with my outfit for years now. Were just hanging on to the game we love, its funny you see alot of the same names so you get to know everyone, develope rivalries and alliances. Its a real tight nit community.
I played on and off since 2015 on PS4 usually for a solid 3-4 month block every summer, my username is PlagieusTHEstakt idk if you recognise my name, I’m still glad we get usually a 24-48 vs 12-24 battle most days at peak, sometimes we get a nice 48-96 vs 24-48. Nasons defiance is my fav battle, it’s always the crown, the ascent, lithcorp central or raven landing lol
PPJJ is the bane of my existence.
Ok, that recursion hackusator HAD to be paletigerrr. I've heard him do that exact rant
Probably, I know for a fact he's still fuming that maxes can't be rezzed anymore. (Among other things)
Yep, I heard him give that rant years ago. He's probably the original source of that conspiracy theory.
Yeah the factions are frankly pretty balanced, every things got some exceptional weapons that stand out as uniquely perfect. I do wish VS had a better anti-air option like the TR striker or the newer NG anti materal flack option. Sides that they all seem to have pro's and cons. Some times one just suits you personally and your style better.
Slicer Is jokegun. I regret buying it. More than recerting all constructions.
Cyrious got trolled very hard on the Recursion Stat Tracker thing. This has been a running joke in PS2 for many years.
2:18 "Planetside is not forgotten on playstation" They arent forgotten, they are ignored. No one has forgotten they havent had an update in over a year, or that esamir has been disabled just as long.
Wrel and the dev team have not forgotten, they have actively ignored and blocked all inquiries about an update. It would have been less of an issue had they communicated in the slightest bit, but to go radio silence and block people on twitter asking about updates, this is how its going to look when PC stops getting uodated too.
Why can’t they at least unlock Esamir??
@@rhysnichols8608 From what I understand, they don't have an older build/save of Esamir from before containment facilities were added. Everything was working fine, even with the shattered warpgate. But PlayStation 4 could not handle the newest version of Esamir, so instead of reverting to an older version it is permanently disabled
So the MAX flying around killing everyone is a skill issue on my part, got it.
I mean he's not saying there aren't any hackers at all there definitely are. It's just that 99% of the time it's just someone who's really good.
@@Guardian-of-Light137 Why aren't all these 'really good' players playing CS:GO and winning money in the tournaments?
Because their PS2 cheats don't work in CS:GO.
PS2 is not filled with super skilled gamers, it's filled with cheaters.
@@Guardian-of-Light137 No, usually it's not someone who's really good. It's someone who has a favourable latency to you in that engagement.
@@JohnFromAccounting Or that.
It's easy to fall into the trap of thinking X faction is OP when you run into the situation for which something unique to them is really strong. Example: Lashers in hallways. You can close your eyes and hold LMB and be effective with a lasher down a tight hallway. Depending on your playstyle, skill level, and limited arsenal it's possible to always be on the "bad" end of every engagement. Remember: just because all the factions are balanced doesn't mean you can feel that balance. If you personally never get to flex with your faction's overtuned unique weapons you'll always see your faction as the weak one when you get flexed on by someone else's overtuned unique weapon until you switch factions and get flexed on by your old faction in their good matchups.
As a seasoned Infiltrator since 2013 and stalker cloaker since the day it was released I have to tell that Repeater and Inquisitor are without doubt two of the best weapons ingame with Inquisitor beeing on place one.
The inquisitor outshines every secondary and even (most) Carbines when it comes to dps and accuracy, whenever I feel like having a bad day, I simply made a new char on TR, equipped the bought inquisitor and start farming poor planetmen until I was satisfied again. Then logged in VS again.
There are no counterparts when it comes to the handling and stats. No not the Spiker or Desperado... nothing, even the Commissioner is to be discussed because you can't silence it like those two TR Pistols.
I do not want to talk it down but I simply want to give fair input from my perspective from all factions.
The cheater pill used to really bother me. I would try very hard to convince people they were mistaken when hackusating me, I even have some unlisted videos on my channel specifically made for individuals who sent me tells, and despite all that effort they would never change their mind. When I joined Recursion, the people I used to play with who I thought were my friends would begin giving me veiled accusations and later escalating to outright hate. Over the years I have come to accept that people will always see cheaters out of the corners of their eyes, and nothing you do will change it.
There are cheaters in planetside. It’s a free to play game, you’ll never totally escape them. But ultimately, planetside is just not popular enough to warrant most cheat developers to work on it. Games like Counter strike and Tarkov are plagued because of how popular they are, there is a market to exploit if you’re a talented programmer… not so much here.
Ok, cheater.
well, it shouldn't be that hard to develop such tool, all games are similar in one way or another, so you should find patterns. In beginning of 2000 there were a lot of cheats available, remember good old cheat engine, remember how many trainers there were. And there were people who did it for games, which were sold on disks. So if this happened then, when profit was minimal, it still happens now, when profit can be bigger, no matter which game do you play. Planetside 2 has online of 1000+ players daily, so not that small game.
Cheaters are part of gaming these days, pubg and GTAV proven that
The client side nature of the game makes high ping feel like hacking, and the server interp can get pretty fuckywucky for a few seconds, and that is typically what annoys me
@@ethandye8764 a client sided game without lag compensation hurts a high ping player the most , what are people smoking , like complaining about people lagging is genuine copium ....and im not calling you out im just elaborating on the topic
And the final pill:
We will never get a PlanetSide 3 :(
Yeah they blew any chance of that with the planetside arena crap
I appreciate all the videos lately! I always tune in to a Cyrious PlanetSide 2 video
A shoulder mounted torpedo for the heavy assault that only works underwater. That's what I want to see next
and how will the vehicles defend themselves?
@@Harmsxway serious answer: the same disengage system the mag and valk both get
Better answer: racer 3 scrub
@@paullees6687 have you operated a vehicle underwater? you know they move at a quarter of their speed and cant fire underwater right? or do you only play infantry and make stupid fucking suggestions that would break the game to help you compensate for your lack of skill?
On the faction imbalance - I 100% agree that they are balanced in game with weapons. Where the factions are unbalanced is actually in leadership and command. TR on Emerald is trash and rarely wins any alerts against NC and VS, since the other 2 factions still have some zergfits with coordination, like SKL, and tactical squads like VKATZ. In Planetside, teamwork and strategy matter far more than individual skill or guns.
Completely, but i'd put a caveat: since RPM is linked to framerate I'd argue TR is at a slight disadvantage, as we cant assume all (or even most) people have high end computers. (Do note, I've never played TR cause i hate the weapons)
I'd also have something to say about how the horizon or encapsulate ammo make it better for new players to be useful and as such easier to lead, but you could make the same argument with NC's low horizontal recoil so idk
I think that battlebit shows that people crave a game with large scale battles. It's just that Planetside has some core issues that other games in the genre don't. So people slowly flock away to those games with time.
Honestly almost everything that makes Planetside 2 a unique game, also make it incredibly hard to balance and to update. 3 factions make it harder to balance gameflow. A gigantic continent make it harder to balance choke points and places where people can spawn or hide. There's so many people on the screen that every anti-vehicle weapon feels like a tennis ball launcher because otherwise it would be too strong and it would completely melt everything. AMRs feel like pea shooters while reavers can just one shot people on the ground.
Not to mention how people can't really decide if infiltrators are incredibly strong or incredibly weak. And every other problem regarding classes and their balance...
it looks like the foundation of the game isn't solid enough to support so many mechanics at the scale the game has. Planetside would need a better foundation or to lower the scale of the maps and fights.
Excited to see what you have to say.. I wanted to say though, I totally agree with your last video. I have been having epic fights on Oshur that harken back to 2013 when we had massive zergs contesting every little bit of land. Except this time it doesn't feel like a zerg, it feels like an actual push and pull tug of war on the territory. I really want to see more of these silo point bases on the older maps now, especially on esamir and Amerish and indar where our lanes need a serious overhaul.
I've been saying for years, shrink the no-construction zones. The size of them, particularly around the warpgate bases is absurd. The Indar T is also pretty bad for bases.
Us console players would just like to get off Oshur
Lmao if you think cyrious gives af about console players
@@abotaccount6094 I know he doesn't. I just put this here so the PC players can point and laugh at us.
@themosh54 join us my brother 🫴
Well stated..INDEED!! If I log on right now OSHUR is 90% whats gonna be open. SHEESH!!
@@2kt2000 We've literally been stuck on Oshur for almost 3 days. The alert is bugged and won't start
If the hard to swallow pill is something like "your aim sucks" then it's cool man. I already know that about myself XD
EDIT: Now that I've seen the video, I feel like these are things people would know if they'd watched your previous videos. That's not a criticism of this video, I mean that people should really go back and watch them because I see people complaining about these very issues all the time. So they probably needed to be repeated here.
Thanks for addressing the playstation thing, I'm honestly getting bored of reading all the comments about that on every single PS2 related video I watch. There's no real polite way to answer it except by saying "dude, get a pc, complaining about it won't change the reality of the situation". So much of understanding this game is appreciating how much a small dev team are doing with limited resources. If they didn't change a thing and no new content came out, I'd still enjoy playing. That's just me.
As for balance, I play all three factions and my stats are almost identical with all three. Not that I pay too much attention to stats. I only checked because I was curious and was pleasantly surprised to see that I'm equally bad with all of them.
Oh, and the super scientific graph made me laugh.
Same, unless it's a fellow NC.
Yeah my aim sucks too, I also don't have the reflexes of a teenager anymore, I'm an older fuck. I have had to find other ways to win, and reflex aim weapons (which is most of them sadly) kind of stink for us older bastards.
@@Jormungrandrserpent I'm in my early 40's so I'm not ancient but my teenage years are a loooong time ago now. We've got experience on our side though dude! XD Positioning etc goes a long way.
Damn, man really said "ayy you got a console that's crazy, it's too bad it dont matter" I agree with what he said tho. It makes sense from a Business Standpoint. Playstations basically a failed port and and the devs have their hands tied.
I just want a way to transfer my console account information to a PC server. I've been playing for 8 years.
@@Direblade11 you can’t do thar unfortunately i wish I could to because of the amount of money i spent
@@bdgctruz5786 But is it impossible to code that in? I'd understand needing to change your username, but 8 years of a Consoleside's account progress seems like a shame to just waste when buying a computer
@@Direblade11 it is entirely possible with games like war thunder that allows you to link your account to a pc account and transfer it over. It should be possible to code and shouldnt be that hard. They would have to create a system
1:45 Honestly yeah, I'd want to get a PC and play there. Except, I've been playing on console since 2015. I just want a way to transfer my account to another server
Cyrious: Get a pc
Me: WHO DOES NOT HAVE A PC IN 2024???
"which we have noticed" is cyrious on the rpg team now?
Does NC still have those guided or seeker sniper bullets? Or was that a colossal mistake and reverted?
What are you using to see all players to show up in white when black/grey overall. Definitely easier to see them.
While true hacking isn't as bad as people think it is, a big reason I quit was the amount of people abusing exploits, a great number of them never patched. I can show you areas of the map/bases you can clip into by getting out of vehicles at certain angles, then fire though terrain and kill people who have no hope of shooting back at you. It may be different now, not sure because I haven't played in so long, but I remember these exploits being in for years, with tons of people reporting them.
Yeah, idk. I've only experienced a dude like obviously cheating consistently for like a week once a year or two back, but I've never experienced exploits like that and the best part of the game is that it's a completely open map most of the time. Idk when you played, but even if there's a dude doing something like that at one base, just change bases, and you'll go back to having fun. Of course, I play on and off, so I have some pretty Ling WI does where I don't play sometimes, so maybe it's all happening then or something.
truly a shame that Playstation has to deal with the state its in, currently there is a alert bug and we have been stuck on oshur for almost 2 or 3 days now, some speculate the devs may be doing something with Playstation but i honestly doubt that, nonetheless you are very much correct. The devs have their hands against a wall and there simply arent enough players on console
Also the ‘you don’t own a connection region’ even tho the enemy base is surrounded on 3 sides by friendly territory when alerts activate 😂
@rhysnichols8608 yeah man that never makes sense lol, you can still cap it though, it's just a visual bug
I went Vanu when first joining in, since I figured replacing bullet drop with damage falloff was a neat option to compensate for a bad connection/rig. I had some moments of doubting the balance, back when I couldn't stop getting nailed by the Railjack, but kept finding really cool things to play with instead, and realized how the distribution of strength balanced out over time. I learned to consider that TR's fire rate could be counterbalanced by learning to manage engagement distances as a squad to avoid walking around a corner into TRAC sprays, and a NC operative's CQC potential is counterbalanced by other NC shooting them in the back of the head.
Ah, my favorite thing in NC is that the main thing holding us back is ourselves, lol. Only 10% of the faction is actually skilled, but the damage and range model makes up for our lovable crayon eating, team killing faction mates.
honestly my only real wish is just more lore maybe a web comic or something the lore for planetside is pretty bare bones and there are a lot of stories that could be told and interesting things about the world to explore for the most part the lore that is there is about how humanity found auraxis and how the factions formed and started fighting and im sure there are some other things in between but still even then its not much.
I used to play in Playstation. Can confirm, the population is negligible. The only subjective 'perk' of playing in PS4, is that construction isn't here.
With that said, for auxium sake, OPEN ESAMIR. Even if it's with the goddamm storm still moving around, we have been a continent down for a year or may be even more
the bit that i have issue with is when weapons that CANT 1 headhsot kill me kills me, i can HEAR each shot and even a gauss saw 3 headshot kill isnt instant like a sniper kill, and it becomes even mroe obvious when theres like 1 SOMETIMES 2 people that do it compared to every other person using the same wepaon actually taking the proper .3/.4 kill time to kill me with headshots (you cna see where the shots are going)
In recent weeks with new GPUs out and price cuts for both GPUs and CPUs building a much more capable PC than a PS5 for $500-600 is definitely doable.
I’m a PlayStation player.. I just want Esamir back. That’s all I want. I don’t care about us not getting construction, I don’t care about New guns, I do not care about the “Wrelstorms” being present on it if it does come back with all the crashes it causes, and I do not care about getting containment Sites.
I just want to fight on Esamir again. That’s all I want. That’s all that any of us on PlayStation Planetside 2 want. That’s it. We haven’t fought on Esamir for 2 whole years. We just want our Snow map back.
As a Playstation player...I thank you for your honesty and mentioning us at all (and with respect. I actually un subbed from Cami97 after years because he was so dismissive of Playstation in a nasty way semi recently..so why should I support his channel?) I've played on PS4/5 for years and recognize many many many die hard planetmen by name over the YEARS that appreciate PS2 heavily, just like vet PC players, we just have lots less to love lol.. At this point I'm extremely pleased that the servers aren't going down for us. There is a core group that I know will ride PS2 on PS4/5 until the wheels fall off..(or get a beefy PC) I'm surely one of em. Thanks again for the shoutout 😀🔫. Now its time for PC players to kick us when we're down lol. enjoy. EDIT: and why must we be on OSHUR 80% of the time!?? C'mon!
Being on oshur 80% times, or any other continent, sounds like hell. I imagine it gets boring real fast
@@BrainBurnStudios Sure does.. and takes HOURS sometimes for an alert to even start on Oshur for some reason. Even if we have both other factions warpgated simultaneously. Territory % doesn't kick in to prompt alert. Only one continent open at a time on PS4/5. Maybe I exaggerated lol.. let's say Oshur open 40-65% (varying). But should be 25%
i have a question as a returning player with around 700 hours and less than 1.5 kd, should you burst in 10-20 meters fights? it seems to me that no matter how accurate i am at those fights i get killed faster 6/10 times if im bursting, and if i go full auto the bloom makes me miss shots, is it a weapon of choice issue ? i play nc with the gause saw most of the time, and yes i do land headshots, i got a 30-40% HS, according to recursion at the end of sessions
The Gauss Saw is a high-risk, high reward weapon. If you can't land headshots consistently, you will be outgunned 8/10 times. I recommend trying out the Anchor, Em6, and Promise for those scenarios ;)
@@kiro-fo9qg thank you, after playing with the anchor, its a godsent, fits my playstyle very well, just the mag size is something to get used to especially with how long the empty reload is for a 50 mag
@@osm3008 It's funny how in my beginner days I also liked higher rate of fire weapons much more because I wasn't as dependent on my accuracy as much. But later on when I switched to slower high damage hitters, now I can't go back to those faster weapons anymore because they feel so "spray and pray" that I just can't achieve the same effectiveness anymore.
@@TeRRm0s i remember liking the gauss saw in the past because i had decent aim back then as i was playing competitive games seriously such as csgo and valorant, but as ive aged i guess i lost that magic and i appreciate having more room for error, i havent tried anything beside the GS before so now experimenting with different weapons i like that the game gives choices for those who are less gifted
I agree with every single pill you prescribed.
Got any good recommendations for an I3 with a gtx 1650 and 32 gigs of ram? Because I'm on ps5 but osher for a 4rth day in a row is mind numbing
people getting kills from under the map seems to be happening.
i need that dirty scout gun
I dream often of crowd funding a spiritual successor to Planetside, but with my own twist to reduce the stress from pure PvP. But, despite being a tech industry vet, it's a daunting and intimidating task. Having made mods and even games in my spare time, video games are one of biggest PITA products to create.
So after 1000+ houers on VS and NC. What realy super strong toys does VS have? How is the VS arsenal balanced compeared to the other factions?
vs has been underpowered since ps1 and even when we did have decent toys in ps2 they all got nerfed mostly due to the moaning of other factions
vs gets the most interesting kit which makes it even more sad that this is the case
The Max you should be able to jump out of them like a tank,
everyone is overpowered!
I play a lot of hunt showdown and there are some truly cracked gamers in that game. I play with a buddy who really doesn't like to accept that other people are just better than us, so he'll complain that shit guns are unrealisticly short ranged, which they're really not in hunt, or that the hit boxes suck (rarely true), he's got shakey hands, or some dude is cheating because he got him through a wall or really far away. There's a pretty frequent scenario where he's dead, spectating me, and I end up losing a gunfight and he'll say that it was bullshit for whatever reason, and I'm just like nah, I just got straight up out skilled. Or like I'll get headshot from 200 meters away by a guy with a silenced low velocity gun with iron sights and I'm like "no way" and he'll take that as me saying he's cheating when what I really mean is that guy is cracked, it's nuts he hit me from there let alone could see me.
My opinion is, in games like hunt and planetside where there is no kill cam, there's not a whole lot you can do to find out if someone's cheating if it's not blatant. Sometimes a random solo walks in with a pistol and headshots all three of you in a row. Whether they're lucky, skilled, or cheating, you'll never know and it's best just to assume they're skilled because that's something you can attain too. If you want to stop dying to players like that, the best answer is to try your best to improve, not try to report them for cheating or complaining that they got lucky.
I really appreciate planetside 2 for dropping me in a game with thousands of players that are miles ahead of me in terms of skill and forcing me to get better or play redeployment simulator.
One thing I genuinely don't like in planetside 2 which has nothing to do with the game itself or the devs or the majority of the community. There's been a few times when I've got in an esf to try and have some fun and I end up getting railed by some other esf pilot that's way better than me, but the other esf gamers that are clearly right there doing absolutely nothing, will not attack the one attacking me. I could understand if it's like an honor thing where they will leave us alone to dual or whatever, but they don't fight even after I die or when I'm flying in. It's happened enough to be annoying and idk if it's just because they're oblivious or it's because of this esf cabal I've heard of a couple times, but man is it annoying when faction members won't help you, they almost always help in ground combat so it's always frustrating to see.
I main NC, and you could never convince me to trade my jackhammer for the chaingun. I don't like the nerf they gave it after outfit wars, but whatever.
I love shotguns but there is nothing unique about jackhammer especially if you compare it to the chaingun
If someone is better than me they clearly need to touch grass.
As a freelance main...yes.
the hardest pill to swallow is the server is too old and broken. i am playing with 300ms often time spikes to 500ms-1000ms every 5 minutes. and it will not be fixed. this game almost dead to me
Do you got any flying guides? I used to fly in PS1 without issues, but I'll be god damned if I can keep anything in the air now. I wish there was a control settings button that would allow you to use PS1 bindings for certain aspects of the game.
This has got to be one of my favorite videos. After reading you channel description and how much value you put into communites, its hilarious to hear your opinion on the console planetside community. I suppose a community only matters to you if you interact with it. I suppose smaller communities have less value and need not be acknowledged.
8:50
ill be honest, even tho NC is a bad fit for my playstyle (which i realised way to late)
having just basic ass sunderer, lighning & infantry with 0 upgrades is my antidote from switching factions.
if i there was an offer to get 100% certrefund and pay 50% of your total certs to switch a characters faction, id do it in a heartbeat.
Steam-Deck's are on the upper-end of mid-range rigs and are comparable price wise to consoles.
They don't have Raytracing like the newer consoles do, but Raytracing isn't really something most games use anyways. There are very few games that actually require even a 20 series RTX and it's Nvidia Counterpart and many of the games that claim they need it, actually don't.
It is hackers and it is lag (low server tickrate results in server engine latency)
Why do people make apologies for hackers or the low server tickrate? Both things are atrocious.
The hardest to swallow pill is that Cyrious is a hacker because there's no other explanation why he would cover for hackers. It's not possible that he is so bad at the game that he wouldn't notice the amount of hackers. Or maybe he is such an NPC that he buys into reddit gaslighting. Cheating is less bad in general in the US than in EU, but still far from non-existent.
Cyrious is smoking something with weapon balance. It's not about the overall arsenal, because you can't use all of the arsenal at once. The outlier weapons that are better than all the faction alternatives mean that the factions are not balanced. The Cyclone was the best SMG by far on release. It is still the best SMG by far now. The Banshee was by far the best ESF weapon. It got nerfed to be in line with the others. This is proof that the factions were not balanced prior to the nerf, and if you wanted to be an A2G ESF, the TR was strictly the best faction to do it on.
Maybe im in the niche for the PS community, but I was never calling for more content or anything whatsoever because I understand the numbers. (But what I dont appreciate is being kept in the dark and I think thats where the community feels left behind and ignored)
people unable to blame themselves for deaths/losing is a problem in every game sadly
Appreciate the videos, bud!
Hard pill to swallow is never being able to find a good squad on night shift Emerald.
Hey new Wrol/Hogby. Take his Kingsnake away.
I've been saying this for console for years.
I agree with all of this, some of them a bit reluctantly mind you. But I do agree. However I do believe that Vanu weapons are kinda OP. Of course not by much, but when an LMG is more accurate at range than a scout rifle, there are issues. Granted, only one or two of their LMGs are like that, but they are the guns most of them use. Then there is also the large projectiles. I'm not sure if its just cosmetic or if it actually has game impact, but either way, Its damn difficult to see what your shooting at when your screen is filled with very large, very bright, wall of bullets coming at you. With TR, the wall of bullets is quite literally a wall, but you can still see past them. And NC doesnt really have this issue as their bullets are similar to TR, just hit harder.
Now, I do agree that all of the crap Im whining about is a skill issue, but its a skill issue that is very difficult to overcome even for very skilled/experienced players. And with the numbers that are present in PS2, even 0.5% difference make a very large difference. Whenever I'm on at peak hours, which is almost everyday, 7/10 times the Vanu win the alerts. And they do this despite have equal or even lower players on. Because while the top players have no issue dealing with them, the other 90% of the playerbase do. I even seen Vanu Mains complain about this, hell, I used to be a Vanu Main. Its only when the player base drops in the early mornings that you start to see TR start sweeping. And they only sweep cause they have a good 20% more players on.
NC has the most skilled players in my opinion, I am not one of them D;. TR, has the most active Players throughout the day. but Vanu has some weapons that are just very slightly better. Plus, on Oshur, Vanu almost always sweeps, I believe because their Mag-riders just float over the water and so can move around the map SO much faster.
Again, I am not a top player, but I am very active, and I enjoy finding the differences of the Factions and their habits. I have characters in the high 50's low 60's for all four factions cause I play what I feel like at that time.
TR's defining trait is high fire rate weapons, but the fire rate is limited by the hardware of the player's PC. NC has hard hitting weapons, but they are slow firing, as such, in confined areas, they are at a slight disadvantage. VS has the most accurate weapons in the game, so you see more snipers and heavys, and even their most inaccurate weapons are still freakishly lethal at range.
One last thing, all factions need their Infiltrators nerfed. After getting my Vanu Infil to Araxium, I strongly believe it needs a super nerf. For one, their invis should be a consumable item that works for a limited time, unless interupted by the player attacking. Two, there should be a time frame after attacking, where you cant invis again. And Finally, The scout rifles need to be more inaccurate, or need to be slower to fire. I know the scout rifles are every faction, but I havent seen an Infil main that uses an acutal sniper rifle. 9/10 times you will never be far enough away that its worth it.
I think this changes would make the Infiltrators play more like snipers. Where they are able to kill one-four players then they have to run back to resupply. They would strive more to find places with cover/concealment. I know they will never implement this, and I that I will catch a lot of hate from Infil mains for this, but I stand by it.
Here's my hard to swallow pill for everyone: New players who need the game to cater an experience to them likely won't stick around long enough for it to matter. I've been playing for a long time. Not nearly as long as some people, but long enough that I've seen the game go through many changes, and one thing that people always talk about is the new player experience. "We need to make the new player experience better, so players won't get frustrated and quit". Look, I get it, I'm sympathetic to the BR1 who just dropped into his first fight only to get immediately gunned down by a BR100 player heavy assault with black camo. I'm sympathetic because *I've been there* myself, and it doesn't feel good, but I'm still here, and so are many others.
The new player experience when I first started playing was basically non existent. For those that came before me, it was worse. The reality is that nothing can prepare you for what you are about to experience. You simply have to keep moving forward. You have to die and keep going, you have to lose and keep fighting, and you have to fail and keep trying. Over and over and over again. The players who need the game to constantly reward them to keep them engaged are probably going to quit as soon as the constant rewards stop flowing. I've seen it. The players who can keep pushing onward despite the adversity will be the players who stick with the game the longest.
And then, they will quit after 7 years of playing because the developers added a minor change to their favorite gun which altered it's projectile velocity by 20. Saltyvets.
I will argue that if you go back enough, the skill gap between player become small enough, so it becomes a non issue.
And that there is still a problem with the skill floor being too low compared to the skill ceiling for a game without matchmaking.
And yes, I know it's an unsolvable issue. But that don't mean that we have to fall into a nirvana fallacy and do nothing about it.
You made a claim about how few people are hacking. Where do you get this data to make this claim? You said it's basic math, but without a source to know where you got numbers from your conclusions are as speculative as the other side.
His source is that he doesn't want his buddies to get banned. Planetside has always had a boatload of cheaters.
Anyone else "triggered" by that infil not spotting the sunnys, just so they can farm? :D
No I've done it before lol
it's 2023 how hard to buy a good pc for planetside
Honestly i feel like the helios is fine, the arc, the ammo and the lack of distance really tamp it down, yeah it does ALOT of dmg but it also doesnt get many shots and is really hard to use in most situations othwr than holding a hallway which even then there are better options
The hardest pill is the optimization problem... Keep getting worse.
Planetside has always had a problem with people pretending no one is cheating. Looks like that will never change.
Yeah it has always been that way, I once had a guy tell me that his bottomless clip rocklet rifle and infinite jetpack fuel was *just from implants* another reason they were terrible for the game tbh
as someone who studies the cheaters part I can say you are wrong, around 18-26 percent of a games population is cheaters.
Cheating and developing cheats is extremely profitable ( a lot of people pay per hour for cheats) and for a seasoned dev very easy to make. Cheating is rampant in most online games.... Now im not super sure about planet side because there isnt really profitabilty in using the cheats, but im sure there are people who want them for account farming.
I would never in life spend the amount of time i spent on planetside playstation again on pc if i could transfer my stuff over im down pc players honestly gotta suck up the whole padding kda stuff honestly we cant even get like 200 ppl on and the amount of money i spent on bundles etc etc just no way id do it again id pay to transfer
It maybe low at Playstation bc they take forever for updates on Playstation I switch to PC bc of that fact.
Me using my recursion aimbot program with an 8.2% accuracy😎
Actually no offense cyrious you can build a pc thats better than a ps4/xbox 1. even with bar bone pc specs.... a Dual core quad thread will out beat the old puma arc cpus in those consoles. just make sure u have 8GB ram or more and a decent GPU 1650 or better.... u can build a pc that is equivilant to the ps5 for $500 bucks if u play cards right and just use your current TV as a screen and turn game mode on to lower latency still not ideal but do able...... but that out of the water I do think u lose that portability but if u get a HP 15 Gaming laptop that has the 4 core 8 thread cpu 16 GB ram and a gtx 1650m which is more than enough to play triple AAA titles at medium 1080p settings which is what ps5/4 run at they be fine going place to place........ anyways that aside I think there needs to be a big release for the game and a hard copy of the game to release. There needs to be a relaunch for console for it to work out now a days and publicity more less Planetside 2.5 HD remaster or somthing..... If not that they no offense to playstation players it needs shut down and resources pushed to PC..... I play both systems and feel bad for saying this!!!!
my sister tested this game on hp pavillion i3 laptop, and was impressed, she said wow if this can run bit better then ps4 then imagine how easier a actual gaming laptop can run it.
Also we harp on devs all the time but they have lives and expectations withing the companies they work for lets not take the to the deep end and end up ruining there lives over our wants.... We need to be humble as a community and maybe even step up more to help the devs instead of just harp all the time!!!!
I agree with most everything you said, but, essentially saying players should expect to be shot from behind walls... It's no wonder the game is dying, right?
TR is best class b/c i'm too colorblind to tell NC and Vanu apart... but I like nc better T-T
You got me fucked up if you're preaching high enemy ping is a "skill issue" in PS2 or any fps game. Sure buddy, getting killed 500 years before they even appeared on the screen or extrapolating into a wall is a "skill issue"
Wait you are saying all those players who have been telling me that NC is the most OP faction are wrong?
I think what disappointed me with PS2 was I didn't have the time and energy to train myself to headshot as opposed to center mass body shot, and to learn all of the ins and outs of every map, so I was always getting crapped on, and it just got tiring. I had fun for a while just being that asshole who's sole job in life was killing your air assets with his launcher, or taking out enemy sundies, etc. But eventually it just wasn't fun. Also fk pilots. Which was fine, just not the game for me at that point, and I moved on. But it still kind of sucks, you can tell I still really wish the game had hit for me, because I'm commenting on a video years after I bounced, lol.
This, I tried picking the game up a couple days ago, but I can tell the game just doesn't respect new players. I really want to like the game but I'm unsure if it's worth it at this point, I just don't have the ten years of playing other people have had.
Sorry, but I am sick of hearing people constantly talking about how the factions are well balanced. Of the alert wins for each faction on Emerald, the winrates for Vanu, NC, and TR respectively, is 40/40/20. TR is beaten out more times than I can count. Their weapons do less damage, and the fire rate doesn't help if many players are struggling with framerate, something the game has tied your fire rate to. Also, TR weapons are much more unwieldy than their counterparts. VS specifically have much easier to control guns through less bloom and lower recoil. Damage isn't everything. A gun that does 100 damage a shot, but is easy to control will usually beat out a heavy weight gun that's difficult to manage. Especially for newer players who haven't yet mastered the harder to control weapons. Also, Vanu is the only faction in the game with access to heat based weapons. Faction specific weapons. No, the halloween goo gun does not count. Each and every directive weapon has infinite ammo, and reloads when it is put away. I have been told numerous times by countless VS players that the Betelgeuse just isn't that good. And yet, any time I check the profiles of people who say that, their top gun with thousands upon thousands, sometimes tens of thousands of kills, is of course, the Betelgeuse. For a gun that isn't very good, I sure do see a massive swathe of the population not only using it, but only playing heavy nigh exclusively. Many players with well over 50% of their play time on Heavy. Not to mention the most agile and mobile tank in the game. A shield and two barrels means nothing if the tank you're fighting can climb mountains and buildings to escape you, especially when an afterburner is hard baked into the tank by default. In terms of raw power, yes, the Magrider is much weaker than the Prowler and Vanguard. But in practical use, the fact the magrider can strafe, climb massive obstacles, boost behind and around their enemy, as well as drive over top of some other vehicles, you can't deny the Magrider is more practical.
I was a TR main before I switched to VS for about a month. And in that month I overperformed more than I ever had. The guns are easy to control, more accurate, and well balanced to fit a healthy mix of high fire rate to control, and damage. The reason I do not play VS is out of principle. I do not want to play the best faction because it goes against my principles of "These people shouldn't be stronger than everyone else." Simply just playing that faction would invalidate my position, since I understand how they're stronger, and now I am just using it to my advantage to punish other players I know have worse crap than I do. It's the same reason I don't play infiltrator, it feels bad to destroy people you know barely stood a chance to begin with. And with infiltrator, even more so, thanks to not having to care about bullet drop on VS. And if you scoffed at that point, please understand that when it comes to long range sniping, the moment you don't have to care about bullet drop, it makes everything so much easier. This is why the lightning's pierce cannon on NSO is so brutally effective, the lack of having to account for bullet drop means you can punish over confident long range tankers, like fights between The Crown and Ceres Hydroponics.
And again, the data to show the faction imbalance is right there, in front of your face. Plus the weapon stats, in practice play, and yet despite this I constantly hear people who think they have so much more authority than they do constantly talking about how "Duuuhhhhh its a sKiLl iSsUE" when it definitely is not the case, and I have provided evidence and examples. People like Cyrious just cannot believe that this game has balancing issues, and that's really sad.
Hmmmm,a pill?
Yes OPEN WIDE! 😂 LOL
I dont think theres a lot of cheaters just a lotof server-side going on
server-side + a 100 fps difference between some players is how it be feeling unfair
the 40k cheater were probably from escape from tarkov, in which the cheaters earn their living via the ingame economy (which planetside dosent have). planetside is so skillexploitative via headshots and networking ppl not in the know just get wasted
you cant even buy a leveld account (atleast according to a short google search)
there is a big differance in leadership and organisation quality between factions that does make a big differance in winning or losing alerts, in my career i almost never got above a 25% winrate
how the fuck is that relevant to faction balance? if those leaders/players go to the faction with the better guns and vehicles then you end up with what we got in outfit wars, nc dominating.
my poin ton view on cheating is or just dying is just shut up and respawn its planetside lmao
That math is not good.
What your saying is that because the percentage of players who are cheaters is x then the chances of the player who killed you of being a cheater is also x. Not true.
Cheaters kill more people then the other players, because they are cheaters.
People arnt on consoles because it never gets updated
“The game” gets advertised as being updated,turn on planetside and no obviously it’s just pc lol, and ima forget about it next week and the update on console might be months later so people just arnt exited and stop playing
Most people can’t afford even a piece of a pc
TR is best.................morally :P
PlayStation ruined flying
well wrel jsut stepped down so im guessing that is the pill.
NO-ONE wants to swallow Wrel… Besides Wrel.
@SlipSpectrum you got a point there 👏😆
@@slipspectrum9253 good point mate
Im sorry but I just don't agree with playstation's excuse for the lack of updates. For example were still back in the first pre vs aurax buff arsenal update. Literally it's not even content that's needed JUST a balance patch. If the devs focused more on the PS port then maybe they would've kept a proper playerbase. I remember YEARS of long-standing glitches left on PS4. It's not a surprise everyone left.
I'm mostly an NS player as i don't have many people to play with, so i created it to join where it needs more hands.
Unfortunately most of the time i end up in one of the loosing factions during alerts by that 😅
PS : I'm on Cobalt as I'm European
chaingun goes brrrrr. I play TR for the Dakka, also for 2RAF :)
My biggest problem has always been the nerfs. If it is any good they will take it away from you eventually.
10+ years for banshee and the cyclone got an even more OP version in the post arsenal tempest.
Most of the things that got nerfed should have been nerfed years earlier before they helped kill the playerbase.
Hard pill to swallow: Unless you are playing a Heavy or Medic, you have 0 contribution to the fight. Sniping in this game is meaningless because a medic can just revive them in 0.5 seconds.
Hey, I'll have you know that I do a very important job as Light Assault: I carefully and painstakingly put spawn beacons in hard-to-reach places so that they can't easily be removed in a firefight, so that my crayon-eating HA main squadmates can spawn in and immediately replace said beacon with one situated on the ground, in plain view of the enemy spawn room!
Lol true sometimes, but just snipe them people being revived haha.
well, they keep nerfing CQC bolting which is a counter to HA. They also are afraid to buff some other play styles so HA shitters don't complain.
nope, magrider is op :)
Kingsnake still does not do much against shielded vanguards though, so if you are gonna nerf the only tank weapon that is slightly overturned, maybe they should nerf the way more noticable effect of the vanguard shield?
I am not a game developer. But I know what developers go through. Especially these days. That graph says it all. We can want and want and want and the devs can want to, but what they can realistically do is far below what everyone wants. That's why a simple. "We're working on it." Is often good enough for me.
Just simple. To the point. Confirmation that they are doing anything at all is good enough for me. Even if it takes years between patches. Fine whatever. At least something IS happening. Granted it's not realistic to expect a playerbase to stick around long if content isn't being pushed out quick enough which can and often does spell the doom of a game. But if they rush it ... well it's a lose lose situation really. All we can do is pray and hope for the best.
