I have noticed that despite the AMS being stripped away from it, with the much higher pops because of server consolidation, the Galaxy is still being used very often as a shuttle to the frontlines and for hotdrops. Which is great because, as we all know, Hotdrops are awesome.

It's not used nearly as much though and it's still hard to get people to get on a galaxy. Only time you'll ever be able to manage a full one is with an organized group. Used to be I could land and at LEAST get enough for the turrets within a couple of minutes of waiting at the warpgate. Even if I could get that now it's almost useless, since a few light machine gun turrets aren't going to do much, and a hot drop of 4 people isn't all that impressive.

Hmm, looks like X plays PS2 too. Still my favorite youtuber. If you ever see Davidr64, offer him a magic school bus ride.
Server?

Have you played since last patch, I mean at the Indar warpgate there are gal's constantly landing and filling up rather quickly full of randoms. Of course actually getting them to sit still and not bail at the first sign of AA is another matter entirely :/

I'm not sure when "last patch" is since they're releasing hotfixes it seems almost constantly. But I haven't played since VS and NC had the US server locked down yesterday. Even before that though, it was rare to see a galaxy that wasn't outfit controlled.

Still, if you have a rather lagre squad of people you rather play with them then simply play with a bunch of silent pubs that have no idea what they are doing.

So there's still no B12 outfit, despite all the talking? I stopped reading at some point, figuring I'd only get in after the game went public. If anyone is organising anything, please let us know/update first post/create new thread...

Its just because of the giant imbalance atm. Nobody really feels like playing.

There was a slight stand off, I was in a tank while our two teams fired at each other over a ridge...
I was having trouble hitting them due to terrain...
I was then... "You know what, Fuck it, I'm in a tank..."
So I turned away and came back, on their side, running them down...
I blew up but there was so many Roadkills...

Why is the game imbalanced exactly? What are people so annoyed about that they don't play a free game of epic proportions? :o

Also, this game is giving me a pretty huge Klendathu Drop vibe at the moment, from Starship Troopers... I'm loving it! The battles are absolutely epic... tons of infantry running around, big armour pushes, dropships booming and zooming above. Marvellous!

I'm starting to get tired of not being able to play with anyone as a team though, which is what really makes me enjoy games :(

It's not as bad now since they limited it to 2 servers, but before there were massive pop balance issues. It wasn't uncommon to see things like a 20 20 60 spread on some of the worst servers.

EDIT: Also Sensei said he's going to get the outfit back in as soon as he get's off his ass :P. US New Conglomerate as always.
