I thought lockdown got nerfed because LOL HE SPAM CROSSROADS WATCHTOWER ERRY DAY

Quote from: PU2 Patch Notes
Prowler Anchored Mode
Data shows that anchored mode is extending the Prowlers range too far as well as making it too easy to hit aircraft. The projectile speed increase on Anchored mode is being reduced from 15/30/45/60% per rank, to 7.5/15/22.5/30%

SOE didn't touch the reload boost so people can still HE spam all day erry day.

Anyone else notice their FPS go down recently within the past few patches? Specifically I've noticed when I ADS it lowers my FPS dramatically until the scoping animation is complete. Similar things happened prior to the optimization patch.

It kind of sucks because it makes it very difficult for me to kill someone aware of my presence that is capable of shooting back, though hipfiring isn't as bad as ADS. After noticing this I've re-lowered my graphics settings to below what's possible in the game menu via useroptions and it still is bad enough to keep getting me killed.

My computer is really low spec but after the optimization patch and up to quite recently it was running PS2 well enough that I couldn't complain, and I was even able to turn a few of the graphics options up and get 60+ fps in large fights. Now it's much worse, with the above ADS problem and lower fps in general.

Cahal: escaped from secret tank driver cloning facility?

I've gunned for this guys vanguard many times and let me tell you, he is very good.

(Legit too, I've seen him miss occasionally)

Ahh I love doing this as well. Shooting aircraft out of the skies is my favorite activity in a vanguard. Can't imagine the recieving end much appreciates it though!  :P

I've been shot out of the sky by a tank more than once (never by a Vanguard, though - I'm NC), and my reaction is either "well played!" if I was moving at the time or "I'm such an idiot :(" if I was hovering in place or moving straight towards the tank.

I checked that out too. You used to be able to lock on with free-look, so... I wasn't surprised that you could do this too.

Still, very useful. Hopefully they leave it like that, otherwise I can't see the point in the missiles.

Yah, it sounds like minecraft with content, you have obviously missed the point, people dont like content, they like different coloured blocks.
Seems to work fine with my copy. As soon as I loaded the human caravan came by and the world burst into fire.

Out of curiosity, does this game support TrackIR? I see that being useful if you have one of those. The AH-64 in reality has a targeting lens thingy on the crew's helmet that allows them to simply look at targets and the 30mm canon will automatically point at what they're looking at, and this reminds me of that.

Those missles as they are right now seem strong enough as it is to me, probably better this feature doesn't make it to live.  :o

It seems something broke recently. I'm playing now and it's a lot choppier than it should be, with random hangs of around a second.

TO EVERYONE WITH FPS PROBLEMS:
Try "Validate Game Assets" in the Advanced Settings in the launcher.
Try defragmenting the folder/disk you've installed PS2 in.
If you have a good enough connection, try reinstalling PS2.

Did anyone else get a 3-day XP boost for no apparent reason? I just got one, and I think someone may have gifted it to me, but I have no clue how to see who did it so I can thank him.

Did you get on the test server during the OMFG testing?  They gave them out if you did.
