Still a bit bummmed that you can only have your character on that specific server and not move around.

Hi guys, added you. Reminder come to the session tonight to get some basic introduction to the game and our outfit plans for Planetside 2. Will be a short session around 30min then organised platoon play. Get on the mumble server so you can talk to us, the details are on the outfit message of the day in game.

Yeah I really wish you could have one presence on multiple server or at least change your name if you got a bit excited on day one.

Apparently Sony are not big on those ideas but there has been a lot of pressure from the community so who knows maybe in time it will feature in the game - we already can have three characters on the same server which was previously impossible.

Was pretty fun. Bit more organised than just jumping in random vehicles with strangers

No mic at the moment though, and android app doesn't work too good when you've got the game's sound on the PC.

Thanks Guys.

Yeah was some fun, still early days though. When we have two squads and a bit more xp we will have our own armour/air support and will be nigh unbeatable. Last night we tried to push our infantry squad on our own and it was tough going until we zerged with the team. Thats just the nature of the beast, you cant really expect to steamroll a 2000 player map with 12 troops. Sure we can make some impact, but serious resistance is always going to be a problem.

Some things we need to take into the future. Another sunderer with ammo and probably two lightnings to escourt them. Two perma engineers per sunderer. Some AA cover, probably by mosquitos for now. We also spent a lot of time fighting the wrong battles, we need to make flags our priority and focus on those, too often I saw guys just setting up in a spot near a flag and farming kills or ignoring the squadies and the state of the battle around them. PTFO.

We were found wanting in terms of the number of heavies, but I'm sure we will get this right in the future. We need 3 heavies ready to hop out of a sunderer and hit a chasing tank or the turrets. Our medics also did a lot of rambo stuff so we didn't really benefit from revives. Anyway, very good for a first session - I'm pleased with the bunch of guys we have. Don't forget to use the outfit menu to add guys as friends so you can pickup games!

Last thing, set up your NC and VS characters on the Lithcorp and Cobalt servers respectively, you will earn around 1 cert per offline hour so the earlier you start the easier it will be to rank those guys up to a playable level and have alternate characters to enjoy. I'm still trying to get admin rights to the public mumble channel so we can edit the channel names etc. Will give you an update on that as soon as the wage admin gets back to me.

Next Sunday we will do a tactics practice session, focusing on improving our squad play by drilling. The week after that, I will give out a document detailing how to shout in mumble, upgrade trees and our plays depending on the number of players we have so we can all find our role. We probably won't be able to get a full platoon going until early Feb due to it being silly season, but there's still plenty reason to play and get friends involved!

I would really love to join in but my gaming is very limited. Should all by done by 17th January then I will be back full time

My system crashes with PS2 @ the moment, all started with the patch - completely hangs and all i can do is reboot....frustrating beyond recognition...I'll just have to keep tweaking to see what i can find, if anything

lee, have yuo tried the app from razor?

what app from razor? - I'll google that see what i find......

Try validating your install files from the launcher, little spanner on the opposite of the play button.

Make sure you run it as administrator, not sure how much it helps but might.
