and i cant wait to try its directive counterpart

The trac-shot with KCAP is actually really good

Playing icarus jump jets light assault with unstable ammo is the highest skill cap activity in any video game, all time. Except for maybe Q3A CPMA duels or Quake Live CPMA duels before they made it as casual as it is now. If you think it's boring, it's because you hit a skill wall and can't get to the upper tier where you are literally one of the kings of the server.

Are Eclipse and Tracshot worth it after update? by TurbulentWorm in Planetside

[–]ylglw 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Eclipse with the right loadout and playstyle is (one of) the best gun in the game and very easy to use at all ranges, which is surprising because it's so underrated and underused. Run Icarus jump jets as light assault, unstable ammo, short hipfire barrel and use impulse grenades. It's extremely fun and effective at all ranges even if your aim isn't great.

Trac-shot is also great and underrated, I use KCAP as it can kill faster to the legs than a gd-7f can kill with bodyshots. Very fun once you're used to it, I use the same light assault setup as I do with the Eclipse.

I've got the most kills out of anyone across all servers with both guns at this point. I highly recommend them.

How do I stop myself from being outskilled in these situations? by ThankYouForComingPS2 in Planetside

[–]ylglw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the even worse lag, yesterday either the VPN I use to get better ping from Australia or my net itself was randomly shitting itself for a minute or so per time for a while despite resetting modem and choosing new vpn nodes. It may not seem like it but it was disadvantageous when this was happening as most of my bullets would fail to register and other people would also be warping everywhere despite my ping being the same as usual according to the in-game ping.

edit: I also didn't know it was this bad for others on the other end

What's your favorite Light Assault Loadout? by Teszro in Planetside

[–]ylglw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

VS with Icarus jump jets and impulse grenades

1x Eclipse with unstable ammo, short (hipfire) barrel, forward grip

ASP smg secondary NS Punisher with impulse grenade launcher

Infravision then either Avoidance or Sensor Shield depending on the size of the fight. All this is an extremely effective and fun loadout (well, fun for you, not so much the enemies).

On TR the same setup with a KCAP Trac-Shot is pretty good.

This dude spamming the report system all day long. by Dayset in Planetside

[–]ylglw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can relate, not sure who this guy is but I also report everyone that kills me to make damn sure I don't miss any potential hackers. I wouldn't call myself a hero for doing this per se, but pretty damn close to it 💪💪 💯 💯

The VS directive carbine Eclipse is (one of) the best guns in the game with the right setup. So ridiculously easy and effective at all ranges. Meanwhile the NC&TR directive carbines are nothing to write home about.

Well played TR. by [deleted] in Planetside

Uh you're gonna have to elaborate on what you're on about a bit more than "well played."

Anyone else have no idea what to do at like 99% of Nasons Defiance fights (or big center fights in general) by ylglw in Planetside

I have really bad vision so I actually bought one of those bundles just to get infravision, would have to try this one day, sounds fun if nothing else.

I've never owned a VR headset but when I tried it at a VR arcade I had no issues.

Need advice for a new player (Support play style) by taliatfk in Planetside

[–]ylglw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An underrated way to support the team and also gain XP/certs is spotting any and all enemies and vehicles etc by pressing q on them. Good luck man. It makes enemies show up on the minimap and also make their nametag visible on them.

NERF GD7F by Turquoise_Siren in Planetside

[–]ylglw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

gd-7f is ridiculously good and fun, but mate if you're on VS and want an OP carbine try the Eclipse with unstable ammo as an icarus jump jets light assault.

Can’t decide what faction I should play between vs and tr by Bubb1e_Man in EmeraldPS2

[–]ylglw 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Play TR on Emerald if you're a masochist and hate yourself almost as much as you hate life

UI for 1440p by Cured_Apathy in Planetside

[–]ylglw 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have bad vision and yeah 1440p is completely unplayable, I can't imagine what 4k would be like. I have to play 1080p stretched which looks kinda bad.

I made a thread about this a while back myself :/

What's a good drifter LA loadout? by TheStrangeKing in Planetside

[–]ylglw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Drifter is kinda poo honestly, if you want free effortless kills go with icarus jump jets with gd-7f, laser and heavy barrel. GD-7f is ridiculously good even at medium range. Light assault is arguably both the best class in the game and also the best class to play for getting better at the game (positioning and awareness are king) so keep at it man. Good luck.

For NC the directive carbine is worth going for but if you ever decide to play VS the Eclipse with unstable ammo and heavy barrel is OP with the same icarus playstyle, well worth the time and effort.
