    Planetside 2 Anybody Play It?

    in Jim's Place

    Posted

    I played with it for a short time. Kind of like Tribes on steroids. It is a massive world with a lot of options. You will need a fast machine and a good memory (you not the PC...hahaha)

    So many games out there to play these days.

    Been looking to maybe get into Freespace 2 Open since they really upped the graphics in the latest MOD and have TrackIR support. I am looking forward to Star Citizen (Wing Commander type done by the same guy). Will have a 3D cockpit amd awesome graphics.

    I play BF3 and Medal Of Honor Warfighter some. Was getting bored with FPSers so that is why I got into flight. Always looking to start something that might be interesting.

    Freespace 2 Open does look interesting and has a huge following. Suppose to be able to play online as well. Will be checking it out as is like a flight sim in space. There is also a Babylon 5 MOD for it as well.

    Well my initial impression of the stick itself... awesome... smooth movement, springs and small deadzone. I still can't believe how bad the X52 Pro was. The stick and throttle are like bricks.. heavy and well built. I actually liked the layout of the X52 Pro throttle.. and really was talking to my wife about getting it and the Fighterstick but she said she wanted me to enjoy my retirement hobby.

    I guess my commitment needs to match having this kind of HOTAS.

    Still suffering this terrible head cold. I at least wanted to make sure these worked.

    Also the other thing she got me was the Saitek PRO Flight Combat Rudder Pedals. I really think they are well built as well and nice and wide.

    So no excuses for me

    Now to figure out what to bind to what.

    I was using it last night when I was online with you guys. Need to change the color scheme but it worked fine. Thanks

    Okay so I think I have what MODS I need.... now how about skins and other stuff? Any suggestions?

    Here is the new HOTAS my wife bought me as a retirement gift. Now if I can get over this head cold I could get down to business setting them up. I fired them up to make sure they work but will have to sit down with a clear head and start using the Target software. Anyone else have this set and use it for IL-2?

    Yeah like

    Personally I don't have a problem with his Nick on the forum and I think when flying it will be shortened to OH, or OD, Da-hill, but not OVER it's to commonly used as a communication word.

    I guess we could call him Nugget in traditional flying history until sorted in the air. ;-)

    OH will make a gesture, or action that will soon enough enlighten him or someone else into a fitting Nick.

    Yes like crash and burn a lot.. hahaha

    Thanks for the info...

    I installed Hyperlobby and tested getting online with IL-2. I had to turn off Expert MOD to join but it did work and I was able to fly around online. How do you get online with Faclon BMS as I didn't see it listed in Hyperlobby?

    I have been watching some videos by Tanit on Youtube. They are pretty good but at time he seems to assume you know which key to use without explaining them unless he had a video that went over the key functions that I have not come across.

    Spending time going in and out of the game checking key binds I sure wish there was way to silence that guy at the end telling me how bad I am.. hahaha as it gets anoying

    Okay I am contemplating creating some popup panels to handle the COM actions for IL-2. Being new and still waiting for my HOTAS to start getting serious about this I was wondering how much are these used in the game? Is it worth putting the time in for a single button action for any communication command sent to wingmen ect.

    First off I would like to say hello to everyone. I wish I would have ventured into flight sims sooner but better late then never.

    I was wondering wondering who is playing what these days?

    So many choices it seems with these new fast PC's and internet connections. I am still working on my setup and will soon have my HOTAS to configure.

    So is there a thread here that gives a bit of history about this squad and about Blairgowrie. He looks like a cool guy.....

    With respects

    I finished running the Check Mod app and it fixed a few errors (like a missing fb_3do20.sfs file) but it will not fix the missing 512.exe error no matter how many time I run it. So where can I dowload the correct file?

    Thanks
