Planetside Saturdays - 1/10/09 - Warning Incoming Basalisk!

ATV night returns, time to get on your bikes and ride  8)

Last week, while fun, was a bit too much serious business and not enough lulz, so we'll mount our bikes for an ATV swarm again. Aside from mauling things by sheer number, I highly recommend picking up anti-vehicle and possibly combat engineering in addition to the bike. If you choose to get these certs I recommend signing on prior to the night and pulling each bike, then filling the extra trunk space with ACE deploy-ables, then save those configs for future use.

This will allow us to use a bunch of wraiths or just the ATVs in general, to make a huge mine field to bait people into. When driving I recommend carrying (in agile) a glue gun in the holster and a lancer and a box of ammo in your inventory, and (in rexo) the lancer and a pulsar with a glue gun in your inventory. Given these configs if you are about to die, hit alt-g to bail and start shooting stuff with the lancer.

Required Certs:
ATV (1)

Recommended Certs:
Medium Assault (2)
Anti-Vehicle (3)
Engineering(3)
Combat Engineering (2) (Engineering a prerequisite)

We hit 18 or 19 at peak last weekend if I recall correctly, and I think some people will be returning from a certain loliday with tai laddy boys so hopefully we will surpass 20 people and actually have 3 squads.

Day: SATURDAY
Time: 7pm cst

Ventrilo is mandatory

If you make a character please post their in game name here

Fun in this game increases exponentially with the more people that join up so I hope to see more of the people that stated they were interested in the initial thread to come out, the game is FREE, but you are restricted to 14 days after which you will have to start all over again. If you get "suspended" or banned since the trial accounts are loopholes just make another one. Conversely you can spend $20 to pick up the game at direct2drive, which comes with a free month, this allows you to keep your character instead of having to re-level someone every 2 weeks.

TRIAL INSTALLER

Remember, the trials sometimes will RANDOMLY suspended you, just a heads up.

I picked up ATV on my cloaker alt so I am good to go with added TREK annoyance.

Fuckin-eh. Alphabetically sortable date-formats ftw!

Now bikes last time were hella fun. I'll actually put a bit of effort into making it.

the date of the month of the year.

[Squishy3]

Definitely will make it out. Also IGN is Squishy6. I'll probably pick up a copy and go from there here soon.

[zaneyard]

i might be there, name is zaneyard

[Eschatos]

I'll have a new account, probly Estakos2

[Versus]

should be there. probably. maybe.

[Benito Mussolini]

the date of the month of the year.

10/1/09

It's year, month, day.
2009-01-10 is not only acceptable, but better.
You first sort things by year, then by month, then by day...

You have no balls if you think otherwise.


Also, chances are I'll miss it... Saturday is not the best day, as it's a day I usually spend with friends.

[Wedge]

ATV's eh?  I'll probably just roll out with a MAX, since I don't think I'll be able to carry enough certs anyways.

[/quote]this.

I should be there.

Someone remind me though, to post screenshots of my driver & gunner configs for agile, rexo, and the trunk for assault buggies and atvs. That way you newbies can get a better idea of what you can get away with carrying around with you. Caff normally carries more ammo than me, because he's usually spamming HA, but I'm always the one that has a swiss army knife for an inventory config. Who never gets stuck because he can't hack open his own doors? Thats right, me.

Also, if I start running in a wraith to hack/kill off CE for you douchebags, and get lancered by someone (or furied), i'm going to haunt your ass for the rest of the night.

We should try to kill a BFR with one, since the 12mm goes through its shields.

Bump for reminder

[at0m]

change of plans for me, since I'm leaving town all next week I'm going out tonight with my GF and won't be there

[Eschatos]

Wedge rages about my godlike mag driving skills.  Say what you will, but I got you more kills than any other time tonight.  Also I corrupted Scotty.
