Can't you just create a new PSN account in the US region? Can't remember who but someone said they were thinking of doing that.

Missions basically seem pointless.
In every other game I have played, there has been some sort of stated goal, which I have yet to find.
Its like the missions are "Attack This" and "Defend That" which mostly feel like moving the battle from one location to another with no indication of what I need to do other than shoot at things that are not on my team.
This afternoon, it just felt like I went from one place to another, and while a lot of things are fun and smooth (not the control scheme however), it feels directionless and goalless which really puts a dampner on everything.
Even with Dust I could fairly quickly understand what the objectives were and what kind of progress I was making... Yet that is the whole point of PS2. Tebow just mentioned, "its about the kills". I think that is good but EVE and DUST has much more going on. I don't know how I feel now. Lets see what happens at Fanfest.
Eh the thing about Dust is that its "Goal" are merely determined by the nature of the game mode.
Skirmish= "Go there and capture that. Repeat" Domination = "Go there and defend that." Ambush= "Kill"
These are not special goals they are really basic and quite frankly boring and over used FPS clich+¬s. Not saying PS2 ius better or worse but you are fundamentally doing the same stuff on bigger and more impressive maps with more balanced guns and gear, and vehicles that ideally appear to be worth driving.
Sadly Dust does not actually have more going on. Pub matches are not worth the time it takes to queue for them. PC is very limited and without a vast number of merits, and FW simply is in disrepair.

Its odd how much a difference those goals make, at least for me.
I play differently (or at least should if I don't always) in each game mode depending on what that is and how the match plays out.
Maybe its because I am so new to PS2, but I couldn't for the life of me figure it out. It tells me to attack a base, and I go there and kill some people, but I don't know what the objective is other than that. What constitutes a captured base?
Same with defending. I kept hearing how our generators were destroyed, but had zero idea where they were, how to defend them, if it was possible to fix them etc.
I just felt directionless.
I find those lacking in Dust....but as soon as you put me on an Asymmetric CSGO map its full on hyper competitive mode (even though I'm kinda new to PC gaming) partly what I am disappointed in Dust for is that I expected them to give us those goals but let us loose to achieve them however we felt.
If that mean bringing 30 people to the fight against 5 others so be it.
Honestly I don't care about ******* MCC's they mean nothing to me. I care about the worlds we fight on being consistent with their moods, I care about the cities and the fortresses.....not cargo hubs at the arse end of nowhere.
I wish we had agency but we don't.
It's one thing to establish that your player base is within an outlined box its not to pretend like there is a sandbox when there clearly is not.

For you guys who have it do you need a US region account to play or can it be install on any account but uses the American server?

And despite what slanderous rumours were being monged up above about the Vanu "Purple Swag" > Whiny TR anyday! Pc masterrace> console peasant opinion. All the leet mlg wannabe kids play vs because it's all ease of use and their purple blends in with the night battles. Nc enjoy tking all the time and tend to get mad and kill eachother over trivial things.
I'm on the same page as you. **** consoles. PC does it all better and I want a good one! But I hear it might be cheaper to get the good sent out from the US and build them up over here in NZ.
Only reasons I'm Vanu are
FUCKIN' PURPLE BRO! and Hover Tanks!
Only ESL stuff I watch is CS:GO.

Nothing is more devastating than a librator squadron with good escorts =ƒÿå=ƒÿå A patch should be out next week. Then the EU will start getting it's codes but it's first come first server so if you applied recently then you may not get in. I applied just shy of a year ago so i should get in.
Issue I have is that I'm neither EU nor US but certainly they aren't region locking the servers. Any advice would help if you know how to get me in on this stuff.

If you're neither then the most you can do is to make a new profile and have it as one of those. Otherwise there's nothing you can do but wait.
Tried. Do I have to set my active profile to the American profile?

You seriously have 0 idea about what you're talking about other than fighting the zerg, i can tell.
Given that the game is only in open beta and been out less than two months you could be less of a **** in almost all respects.....
What do you expect from a player base that has only been recently introduced to a game of this scale and design, moreover what do you expect from Americans [seriously no offence just some light hearted inter-country banter]?
BY THE WAY WILL SOMEONE ASK HOW THE **** PEOPLE FROM NOT AMERICAN GOT IN ON THIS BETA! IWANNAHOEVER TANK!
TR apparently don't have good tanks so they aren't even worth my time.

Glad I'm going to be VS, I get all the hoverz. The least armour and least damage output so you'll be needing a lot of practice but it is a beast. All the tanks are a beast.
This is what I am hoping but the only concern I have is that I like taking a beating and dishing out the hurt as well and we all know the Vanguard is the perfect tank for that as well and is pretty conventional.

I couldn't care any less & pics or it didn't happen. I'm mostly being a dk to the Vanu scum so people can calm their little newbish jimmies. All the factions tanks are great. Anyone who told you that TR dont have good tanks is just sht. Everything in the game is great when utilised correctly. An AP prowler with a halberd outputs so much damage, its disgustingly good.
Red is a **** colour considering purple is freaking available.
And the only reason I am not even giving TR the time of day.

The game will be chaos for the first few months and outfits will start to rise up and then the real game starts. Also True. You need a beta code and then a US playstation account to use it on. The invite is done email address so if you don't have one yet you stuck waiting like the rest of us =ƒÿå.
I have one and a US account but..... do I need to make that US account my primary one, it suggests the Beta code is for PS4's physically located in the US....can one get around that at all?

This weekend I briefly rolled around as a gunner in a Hover Tank.
Its ok if you are jealous, but if it makes you feel any better I bailed when it was obvious the pilot was crap.
I am but honestly it doesn't bug me any more.
I internalised, worked through, and let go of any frustrations I had about not getting into the beta on the ground floor. The American player base is just very lucky to have what they do.
If I can figure out how to get into the beta sooner rather than later it would just be a boon for me and I can try out being a dedicated Engineer and Hover Tank.

Edit: the code is simply for market place if you use the code on us account you get us beta. At least that's the impression I have you can always ping their support team.

Issue is I'm not in Europe and US timezones line up better with my own, especially West Coast.

Found out I won't be able to participate until the SCEE beta rolls around some **** like that. it is fun but also know that it is not as fun as it should be with all the crashes and low server pop is only at 25% so you're not missing a whole lot yet. there are some epic fights but i would say those equal about 2 hours of the 6 hours the server is up for.. the rest of the time it's been like a normal 16 vs 16 game or late at night before server maintenance it's mostly an hour of soft capping unoppsed bases and exploits like your infantry being OHKed by what's essentially a heavy wielding an AA weapon is annoying AF.. also guided air to air missles with broken decoys and on board fire supression not working sucks.. also the in game comms do not work with any consistency and it's pretty blueberried out right now.
Thanks for the heads up..... I'm probably going to be revising my decision to roll Vanu unless that tank handles like a dream boat...... I've been exposed to the Vanguard and more importantly the ideals of Managed Democracy...... well not really but I like big guns, guns that make things explode are even better.

I've also heard of no concrete manner by which non US players can get into the game which is a ******* huge pain in the ass.

So I still need to apply to the beta and then can use my code to access it?
I'm not EU mind you and NZ/AU will this affect me?
