playing this at 144hz is basically cheating and I love it. Couldn't figure out how to walk up walls so hopefully someone can illuminate us

Since I'm in my 40s I like to use infravision sometimes, especially on Hossin where there's so much stuff around to obscure vision. It's an exceptional implant so it's a pain in the rear end to get. It's either in the 5 year anniversary commander's bundle which is $80, randomly gotten through buying implant packs and/or using the recycler, or the implant vendor on Sanctuary will let you buy exceptional implants for 45k ISO-4. I got the one from the anniversary bundle on my NC guy like, four years ago and have been dumping certs into implant packs on all of my characters since then but still only have it on seven of the nine, and even that is very lucky. My NSO guy on Emerald might his ASP 100 before he gets it but oh well, doing that has gotten me a lot of other exceptionals even if I don't use most of them.

The Warmachine's Six-Year Anniversary bundle comes with Logistics Specialist, Disengage, and Firewall exceptionals. I didn't buy that bundle.

The Ancient's Seven-Year Anniversary bundle comes with Bionics [Perfect], Carapace [Perfect], and Counter-Intelligence [Perfect]. The Perfect versions of these implants are identical to the normal versions. It just means that it unlocks for all characters on your account, unlike the previous bundles.


So I just tried to buy some implants for the first time and

Nice! I find the best uses are open areas that aren't too open and counter sniping. It really lets you spot enemy infils at a distance easily.

I just played a little bit with it and yeah it definitely makes close-in firefights a lot easier. It's nuts how much sooner you spot people than they can spot you

just open up a few implant boxes, who knows you could get lucky. I think getting the iso is impractical unless you have a subscription. Even just getting to the alert is an effort half the time

I mostly played on Connery but maybe I'll try this again. Does the sniper rifle with no sway that has the straight pull attachment and a different name on every faction still exist? I was pretty sick with that like 8 years ago.

theres the ghost but TBH it doesn't feel that responsive and you miss tons of shots waiting for the bullets to hit. Running one of the heat ammo semi auto's seems to be a way better move

Have the Vortex MAX guns always been bugged or is it a recent issue?

My FPS drops like a brick if I equip two Vortex and use them for a couple of minutes. It fixes itself when switching weapons and returns instantly when going back to Vortex. Quitting the game and coming back temporarily fixes it until the Vortex have been used for a few minutes again. I go from framed capped 60 to 30 FPS, then drop another half to 15 if I stick with them.

I think people were having problems with the Scorpion earlier. That may have been something like this?

SOE hard-baked in some handicapping to the vanu maxes. We killed too many people with them

Also after logging in for every alert I possibly could, doing the 3 missions I get a day and converting certs to ISO-4 using the deluxe pack, I'm now near 30000 ISO-4. Supposedly this is the point when you have a pretty good chance at getting the exceptional implant you want by just using the ISO-4 recycler, but I'm not sure I'm willing to risk it as this has been an insane grind I'm not willing to do again.

just spend the first 10,000 to see if you roll it

came back to this game after playing in beta/launch. gave up on NC and switched to stupid sexy Vanu. the weapons just feel so much better.

the weapons are cooler but they are certainly not better, the vanu gimmick is "no bullet drop" which isn't really much of a boon compared to 15% more bullets or more damage. We have a cool religion about tiny little machines though

I dunno if this is in bad taste but I feel like the Venn diagram of people who like PS2 and people who like battlebits ought to be a perfect circle. If you haven't tried it out yet and you got 1.5 * :10bux: to spare, you should give it a shot

I honestly lust for a PS2 without the recharging shields and all the vehicle spam. Battlebits is pretty close
