L.O.T.I.S. is planning on moving over, in some capacity at least. I also hear the ROFL alliance is coming to some extent.

Being able to play in a platoon with multiple members from your clan and not have to Q synch seems appealing, vehicles are not overpowered etc, etc, etc...
See you all there as my whole corp plans on moving to that when it hits. Until then we're burning up tons of isk and proto for fun till better games come along...

I've been scheduled to leave here for Destiny for months, but PS2 is looking better every time I see it, so I'm sure I'll show up. A year ago PS2 looked like garbage, kinda like Dust, but it looks like they got their **** together - unlike Dust.

It does look fantastic! Vehicle balance, Mechs!! Tons of different vehicles, huge battles, looks sweet. Gonna try to get my whole alliance under one flag over there, DF will welcome any solo brothers of Dust with open arms, we're looking at which empire to choose. New Conglomerate looks good.

I've been played it on PC lately.
Mixed feelings.
It's fun, but it has its problems too.

Like I said before, being able to go into battle with thirty of my Clanmates in one group, on comms, have aerial and ground vehicle squads, flanker squads, seems like a lot more variety. I'm sure there are issues but nothing like this...

'without obvious imbalances'
Unfortunately... They're there.
Also, fear the tank/aerial column zerg.

So do vehicle mounted anti-infantry weapons.
Think of a railgun with 8m splash that is liable to instantly kill infantry in the splash zone and you'll have a HEAT turret. The aircraft can do similar things.

Sounds like fun instead of the same triple repping Maddys you see every match, or redline rail sniping sica, I need variety man, as long as there is an effective counter to a situation, I don't mind trying and dying, But this game right now vehicles are invincible.

I'm unsure if you quite get the point. In PS2, sometimes there is tank spam like you have never seen in DUST. If one tank with an insta kill 8m splash turret wasn't bad enough, what do you think 30 are like when they're camping the spawn room so if you leave the shield door you get instantly killed?
It's a fun game until that happens, though. The territory mechanics seem pretty poor to me but when you've not got zerg columns rolling about and you can finally find an even fight it can be great.

Stuff like that exists in every game, not something to really care about unless its game breaking. Look at battlefield, you can get your ass spawn trapped for the entire match with snipers, rpgs, tanks and all sorts of aerial vehicles terrorizing you. **** like that always happens so why judge a game over that type of imbalance.

Bullets make the man, this guy knows what's good. Ain't nobody got time for high tech weaponry when you can settle with good old fashion badass bullets.

I got your point, my point was AV weaponry is more effective, I have talked to other people who play that have said the same about the Zerg columns of tanks.

It certainly is more fun, because you don't have to utterly gimp yourself to carry it. And also quite a few of them can splat infantry hilariously too!

I can confirm that ps2 is literally a jump in and shoot people randomly with no depth or organisation most of the time game. Theres no victory and no end. It has its moments but blueberries on that scale is a nightmare.
also the butthurt is so strong that its repulsive, i have been killed many times purely by 1 shot hitting an ally even though im a fking medic with my rep tool in hand to fix the 'wound'.
Yesterday i was defending a point against hordes of NC filth with my lmg. I was specifically firing down a hall to stop a horde of bastards from zerging us. Im talking half hour of sustained fire and with a medic annd engineer supporting me because it never ends in ps2.
In that time i nailed 6-8 friendlies who decided to blindly run in front of me and do you know what happened?.
My fking weapon got BLOCKED and we got buggered.
GG tards.
All you end up doing is spawn zerging outposts and objectives. The progression is long as fk so i just bought all my stuff. You either spawn zerg or counter zerg random outposts.
you can spend a good while planninng and get into a group of people who have jets, planes, transports, tanks, squad comp and the fking lot but it all boils down to zerg spamming in a shtty little room on some pointless outpost for nothing, literally nothing.
Ps2 is truly breathtaking at first but when you figure out how disgustingly simple and generic thhe gameplay is then you'll probably just yawn and regret even bothering.
And the per situation spam is ridiculous. If anyone thought 12 heavies was bad, try 50 backed by tanks and cloaked scouts which turns to around 100 heavies when the outpost gets breached and finishing with 120 Vs 120 heavies in a small outpost/room before its either taken or the attack is nullified.
Thats my experience so far on pc, should i even consider the console version?.

Oh and thats not all in ps2.
Every challenging period of fighting i have had sees the fotm type scum simply log out and switch faction on the same server for easy mode if it gets tough.
so that group of 20 guys defending with you will literally disappear when it gets tough and switch chars on the same server and be coming for you 5 mins later OR you will be part of that group and do that.
Im sure not everyone does this but after about 20 hours of play all in all and not seeing anything different on either the games different continents or other servers then one can only conclude that this is the standard template for behavior.
Its is ridiculous.

Friendlies jumping in front of my weapon and my weapon getting blocked is one of the most irritating damn things.
This is why I use an LA39 light assault. You don't get these problems when you jet up the side of the building and blow a squad to pieces.
