PHX - The Order of the Phoenix

12 days to go for me, bring it on, sniper/engineer for me

yup, Undead, two peas in a pod.

unfortunitely, Planetside wouldn't give me access to the server. it would ask me for my sonystation account name and password, then tell me i don't have a planetside account, then ask me to make an account by logging into sonystation again, then tell me RESTRICTED (or something), then crash.

man, i was pissed.

i'm trying to download again...

It's not a problem with the download, sony are doing something with the character files (wiping them maybe) for release and don't want any new ones being added. So no-one new has been able to get in since last night

oh ya, i forgot.

i liked the idea of being a pilot/sniper. the idea was to mosquito my way behind enemy lines and snipe solo-stile. could get a lot of kills on unsuspecting players. butt, what stinks is that you get more exprience a sa squad and the stealth suit looks like it wont let you pack a sniper rifle. so that sucks

instead, i like the sniper/engineer role now. this way i can *defend* with my sniper by picking off oncoming players all the while planting minefields and sensors and such. i think thats what engineers do???

also, i'm going to look into anti-vehicle combat. that must be worth some BEPs also.

a tank gunner would be cool too...

You get BEP (XP) no matter what you do. You get 100 to 380 XP for killing someone (depends on armor and status). I know the average player can be taken out with one shot if you're a sniper while most others take two.

The ship you have selected doesn't show up on radar so you can land just outside a base and run to the top of a hill and pick people off. This will work perfectly. If you did try this its just a matter of time before they know you're there and send a few people out to kill you so having advanced eng would allow you to plant mines and guns around where you are. So when they get too close to shoot just get up and run for your ship, when they run over the hill after you they will die and you will still get the points. Your ship is also the fastest one available so its home free.

Being in a squad is not needed but helps ten fold. If you were up on the hill picking people off getting 150 XP everytime without much trouble that would be cool. Now if you and I were in a squad and you did the same thing I would get the 150 XP for every kill you made. Where this comes in handy is that as I attack on the other side of the base you will get all the XP I do basicly giving you twice the XP. To make matters even better is when you're up on the hill as a sniper and the other 9 people in your squad is attacking below giving you 9 times the XP plus whatever you get yourself.

The real cool part here is that you can join a squad and run off to some remote base no where near your team. The XP your team gets you will also get. So if you want to be the lone gunner you still can but why not be the lone gunner getting 9x more XP while you do it .

Well by the sounds of it, i think that maybe i should look into getting an anti-vehicule/anti-infantry MAX suit far attack. But i also want engineering to help repair Zarn after he has hit a tree.

I really got into the game today and am now at level 6.....I really like to fly the Galaxy ......just wish the cert. points would come more often....at first I didnt think i would like this game but now....its awesome.....if you look for me I misspelled my name so it is tamania......hope to see you on...

Undead you wouldn't be able to heal me fast enough, I crash about every 30 seconds.

Lmao thx for the warning.

Come on zarn you will love flying..If anything there is a training facility...(THE BIG CROSS BUILDING) you can practive all cfarts as well ass rest of the ground vech. LOVE this game!!!

I've been playing the game for about a month, I just plain suck at flying.

How much longer is the beta for?

Cuz it just went public and I just got it. Downloading at the moment.

where?

fileplanet.com

it's now free for the taking

Ok now I am starting to get a little upset with this game..I get into the game and within a few minutes I get kicked and get the message..."You are leaving the world" and game closes.

Now I have noticed that there are blue and yellow dots next to the server name under the "PLAYERS" tab. markov has 4 blue each time I get kiced off. (Unfortunatly I dont know what it has when I connect, as of right now) Do the 4 blue dots mean that the servers are full? There is another server with a yellow dot, which I have not tried as of yet.

Please help!!!
