Planetside 2

They mentioned a while ago that they would be giving PS1 subs to people who had PS2 subs.

Officially announced by Higgles that all past and present PS1 get free 6 months (of PS1 gameplay).

And it's going F2P eventually.  So we can all just go back and play that instead now, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!  Also I did get that 6 month sub thing, so yes, PS1!

Toyed around with the ZOE for the Max; Feels right during strafes/chase downs, but shines during tower fights. There isn't a corner with more than 30m long kill boxes. Mmm Mmm. Food for though: ZOE let's you strafe perfectly around Lockdown Maxes, and the damage increase allowed me to shatter the NC Max's Shield with a Blueshift equipped. Flip side: Full LMG Clip on you with ZOE is a death.

Regen over Flak/Composite armour is looking like the right fit for ZoE users.

Full-auto on that thing didn't make any sense anyways.

The Saron finally starts looking like it was in PS1  :o

I really like it.  It's way more fun sniping off squishies from 700 yards.

Glad I didn't get Mag lumifiber, this one looks much better

I am back in my apartment and had fun last night. Didn't get much time with the harasser, but fuck do I love the changes to the saron.

I hopped in a gal drop into Rashnu, held by NC, with NTMR earlier today.

Despite having no link to the biolab and absolutely no reason to be there other than to farm idiots by setting up in the SCU shield room. And of course, the idiots kept spawning. Took them about an hour to flush the room out and find our beacons and sunderer. Made a bunch of certs repairing maxes and tossing down ammo.

get composite, turbo, and a chassis (does not matter which honestly)
Cert up a basilisk or fury and go to work

I fully agree on the composite armor and turbo, but I would recommend scrapper chassis. The harasser is fast enough as is and you will want to be able to circle tanks quickly and get around tight corners in tech plants and other bases.

Basilisk and fury are the way to go since the Kobalt can't damage armor and the Halberd and Saron need a stable platform if you want to land any shots consistently. And we won't mention the Bulldog since fuck that gun. It only belongs on sunderers and galaxies as a means to cause chaos.

I have racer 2 and have not found the harrasser wanting for turning radius or reverse.

I appreciate the accel and the higher topspeed.

What I really want, though, is tires that don't act like greased pigs and can actually climb hills.

Armor is a must.

Kor got me into proxy radar. I like it, but if we are running a harrasser column there's no need for all of us to have it.

also: horn.

[Elder]

The harasser or a flash with scout radar I think becomes a must for most ops with a full squad. Personally I have had too many light assaults try to c4 my harasser while I was trying to repair. In which case I drive away laughing because c4 can't do shit for damage against composite.
On the other hand running a flash with scout and tucking it away is great.
Doing that with a flash and running infil while sniping on you're flashes location can be lucrative

Only problem with scout radar is I gotta give up wraith cloak, which is super fail

[Kor]

Harasser has Prox Radar, not Scout. Big difference.

Won the alert that way.  And FlyingMongoose, Grin, and I were INTEGRAL AGENTS.
