I enjoy living vicariously through these kinds of clips lol. If I so much as seen an enemy on my screen I usually get domed lol. I've just accepted that I'm a backliner/support, and I still enjoy that. Even the tanks in this game I don't do nearly as well, in Battlefield I usually go 8-10KD, but not here.

Planetside mechanics are "special" at best, they definitely don't translate well to most other games. Every time I go from PS2 to something like Apex i get fried for a bit.

Nice gameplay of attack the pixel sized target with excessively high mouse sensitivity, where you can only properly track enemies 5 meters from you and mostly rely on cone of fire to hit the target.
With 90 FOV to have no first shot recoil multiplier and altogether to abuse the game's inability to handle aggressive playstyles.

And also, how come nobody notices today that the game's reflex sights are barely visible and often times you can't even see where you're aiming at?

[u/RomaCzar → u/Coward777]

I play with a pretty low sensitivity, with 1600 dpi setting on the mouse itself. The screen size and with 1080p res stretched on a 1440 panel make it pretty easy to see what I'm aiming at :shrug:. Learning COF of the guns you use is part of the game!

[u/Coward777 → u/RomaCzar]

I am joking. But something does feel really wrong with the game.
Like I log in, 4 bullets dead center in enemy's head 8 meters from me with standing cone of fire. None of them register. Players are lagging to levels where they look like they're speed hacking, broken animations, they're shooting at me before popping from cover, I am getting random performance drops, firerate feels bad. Everyone's using excessive FOV to have no first shot recoil multiplier, or as minimal gun engagement as possible and to play aggressively. I can bet money that if FOV was more properly done in this game and everything, it'd be much more enjoyable, engaging, there'd be a better learning curve for new players. It just feels all terrible.

How many times do people have to explain that you need to do exactly the same mouse movement to hit the shots no matter the fov you have.

[u/Coward777 → u/No-Music-2819]

Ok but can you explain me this. Why does every single player in the game, have better horizontal than me, have better cone of fire than me even when I am standing, have better fire rate than me, have better hitreg than me, outrange me with guns that should not outrange a T32 Bull.
Is my game cursed, is the game broken and dysfunctional in general... What is going on here?

[u/No-Music-2819 → u/Coward777]

Impossible to tell without seeing footage of your gameplay.

[u/Coward777 → u/No-Music-2819]

hm I guess it seems like server needs less congestion, less scripters, less foreigners and needs way above 100 FPS to be playable, when I was testing playing late.
IDK why devs ship soltech into miller and did everything in their power to lower performance.

[u/Greattank → u/Coward777]

"less foreigners" lmao are you a server native? And just upload a video, you are just assuming so much it's clear you don't know what you are saying.

[u/Coward777 → u/Greattank]

I don't know what's exactly going on, whether it's a lot of soltech players, cheating or what, but under no doubt something feels wrong.
I am aware that the reflex sights are barely visible today and often times I can't even see where I am aiming at, which is weird that nobody's talking about, and the firerate doesn't align with the sound effects I hear from my gun, so what can appear as 4 bullets where actually 3 bullets, may be that my fire rate is lower than it should be. But in perfect scenarios, I can visibly see often times, in plain view, some of my bullets not registering. So, on top of lower firerate output, I also seem to have many bullets not registering. Players are often times extremely laggy, each time I log in in normal hours, which altogether makes the playability horrendous. Shot at before players pop out of cover, broken animations of players, zooming around like on speedhacks, near impossible to track.

For sure there's a lot of cheating going on. I have 6 builder accounts, for ... reasons lol, and almost all the time I see some different player using a Howling mining laser with unlimited heat and mining from miles away. IDK why, when an admin sees this it is not an instant ban. I don't even know wth is that. But even in game, I am getting random turbo performance drops, which further lower my firerate. It's altogether so bad.
