If we must do this short story thing...

I never said you guys have to. :P I just thought it would be a mildly entertaining way to choose a faction. If nobody wants to there's no need but I just figured that arguments on the actual merits of the factions would go nowhere.

Edit: And at this rate, Palsch might just have his way about choosing a faction- not that your short story necessarily has to be 3700+ words to compete though.

Oh for crying out loud, we've been choosing a faction for the last 200 pages! JUST PICK ONE ALREADY AND BE DONE WITH IT!

Well the temporary outfit is NC and the final one, starting after the next character wipe, will probably be as well.

On a tangential note I highly recommend you change your posts-per-page count in your forum settings so threads like these are less pages and a bit easier to navigate.

I suggest we pick 3 servers and have different factions on each server. That way we can all have the faction we want without fighting each other.

We don't have enough people in the beta for that. Half a dozen people is good turnout right now. Usually it's just me, Sensei, and one other person (often Cornall). We tend to fly Liberators a lot. :)

The problem is that the more times to separate a group, the weaker each one gets. It would make more sense to just have one outfit, that way we can stay at max strength.

This won't work, yeah. We pretty gotta team up. And again, US-EAST-2 NC is the place to be right now!

Got in the beta? What's your name? Form an NC char on East 2 if you want to be part of the outfit.

Edit: Derp, East 2

And by East 1 he actually means East 2.

Yea, we're on east 2, bonehead :)

Cornall? Never met him.

I play often as Conall, though.  :P

I've been using it on and off in numerous games for years, and everywhere I go people mispronounce and misspell it. It's not that strange a name, it's a real world Irish/Scottish name. It's not like I named myself Xiaolian or something.

Or Anvilfolk. It's two words put together, but you'd be surprised that just about everyone reads it wrong.

STILL not in the Beta.

STILL hating you all.

Has anyone been getting much worse lag just lately than they did before? I've been rubberbanding, having possibly-lag-related control issues, and most of all seen people and vehicles jerking around all over the place.

Uhh were you on West before and switched to East? I've noticed the East servers tend to have quite a bit of lag, despite regularly having lower playercounts. My main character is on West for that reason, despite being in NY.

I've been getting terrible lag today on East 2 as well. Something is up with the server I suspect, I never had problems like this before.

I just spent about 5 minutes running around watching people warp all over but being unable to actually shoot anyone, watching tanks roll by and pegging them dead on visually with rockets but never having it show that I hit, even running up to tanks and them firing right at me and me not being hurt and firing back and them not being hurt (it showed them shoot, didnt hurt me). Then suddenly I died to a MAX that I never saw while my health and shield bars were still showing full.

After that I gave up playing for now.
