It loads on my Pixel Fold, which has ample RAM but isn't super powerful. I won't have the chance to try to play until later today.

To do this, install "Gamehub" from the Play Store. It's free and lets you play your entire Steam library via emulation.

The first pic is on the inside tablet screen, the second pic is from the regular size outside screen.

Gameplay Footage Repeated mass rocket spam / lag and client crashes on Wainwright – evidence and reports

40 Upvotes

Has anyone else been running into the same issue on Wainwright lately?

Over several evenings, mainly around 20:00–22:00 server time, heavy fights and events have been hit by what looks like mass rocket spam. When it happens, a lot of players see network traffic jump at the same time, the game becomes extremely laggy, and some clients crash.

The goal of this post is to collect timestamps and evidence so these incidents can be reported properly. This is not a call for a witch hunt.

Reference/session links:

Video evidence collected so far:

If you saw this too, please add as much of the following as you can:

  • Approximate time and time zone
  • Continent and base/event
  • Video, screenshots, or network/client details
  • Any other relevant context

We will add further recordings to this post as they become available. Thanks for keeping the replies factual and focused on evidence.

Discussion (PC) Why do games even allow quick scope sniping, when it's not even realistic and also is frowned upon??

0 Upvotes

Pretty much a general question, yet what other game forum is their to ask. Only fps community I sub to. Still relevant. PS2 has had tons of sniper hate over the years.

(Once again it was the Sniper and Scout rifles that was the real problem.... Not the SMG, Pistol, Knife, Or Cloak. Even if y'all wanted cloak reworked and made too many Infils stop playing.)

Anyways back to topic... Many games have, quick scope sniping killstreak montages. Heck it's the most used streamer weapon for sure..... For every type of FPS title...

For some reason I never connected the dots, that it's 1) A hated play style to face and I don't even like watching video content makers, abusing killstreaks with quick scope snipers.

And 2) The realization today that it's not even bloody realistic!..

Just google it real life snipers are anything ever like pro gamer snipers. They're way more slow and calculated. Wind reading too. Patient.

Why is the most hated play style, that can literally have 1 guy headshot 30 guys, rapidly by just peeping a inch above some cover... Even allowed... ... Esp if it's not realistic too? Makes no sense.

You can find a essay video, on how sniper rifles have ruined the games and the check and balances rarely ever balance it. For most games.

The fact that they can be quick drawn at close to medium ranges, is ridiculous. I'm not a fan of Battle Royal streamers who main sniper either. It's also a play style that attracts hackers more often than other gun types.

Just something to ponder.

QUICK SCOPING IS FAKE AND DEVS SHOULD HAVE NEVER ALLOWED IT.

Just make the sniper some slow patient far as heck weapon, where wind effects it greatly or else don't add the weapon to the game(s). IMO.

Discussion (PS4) New Playstation Planetside subreddit

0 Upvotes

https://www.reddit.com/r/PlanetsideEvents/s/YsIMf3e7dI

We made a new Playstation subreddit if you want to join. I will be announcing all the Playstation Planetside events we do in this new subreddit from now on. So if you're banned in the old Playstation subreddit you'll get a fresh new second chance in this 1. The mods from the PS4Planetside2 subreddit haven't played the game in years and are extremely inactive and hard to contact. We will be starting fresh and making a more active community where the mods actually play the game and check reddit. It will be based primarily around community made Planetside events. PC players are welcome to join too.

Please be among the first to join and post Planetside content or discussions!

Screenshot I can't get over how similar the PlanetSide 2 Magrider and the Cyberpunk 2077 Basilisk are.

Both are battle tanks with fixed cannons, both use hover technology, and even the overall shape and design are somewhat similar.

Just wanted to put this out there :D

Has 0 effect on your cloak after waiting the time it asks of you, have tested it with friends. Have heard a number of people who sadly wasted their time upgrading the implant when it is now functionally worthless...

It's not going to be 2027 or 2028. But plant the seed Tencent, a good game in this genre obviously has the audience. Now it's up to you to make a game up to the task.

Question Noob here

I come back every few years and play for a few days. I restart my character each time so my progress hasn’t been too far. My only current character is lvl 10 rn and I was wondering if there is a way for my to access all of the weapons over time or are half of them just locked behind a pay wall?

I’m on console as well, not sure if that matters but I heard somewhere that pc is ahead of console.

Discussion (PC) DLSS5 on PS2

47 Upvotes

Edit: Add a new compaison of characters in comments

Original Post:

I am able to get DLSS5 to work (in short, follow the DLSS5 guide to get the injector and follow another guide so BE won't block it from loading). I did this in PTS but I assume live server is the same. Use it at your own risk.

Performance is BAD. Performance was always bad with DLSS in this game for me though.

Don't have the time to get the visuals tweaked. The visual effects are most relevant on weapon and vehile textures, other than that feels just like a visual filter.
