yeah I got the same feeling. I shot one guy 3 times with the sniper rifle and he still didn't die :wtf:

Actually the fist VS sniper rifle is a semi auto one,you need to buy a 7x scope,foregrip and silencer to make good at medium range.

What you want is the 100certs one which is bolt action,it kills infantry in one headshot or 2-3 bodyshots depending on class.

You really should try them,their heavy class carries more rockets then VS,their LMG carries 100 rounds and it's more accurate then the VS one and it kills faster.

Maybe it's just me but VS feel a little underpowered after i played NC for a bit.

OH nice, reload is a huge issue, I also thought the VS felt a bit "pew pew".

I will give NC a try on Leyzer's Outfit.

As MalicE said, the VS sniper rifle is an extremely long range pea shooter. It's so unstable its not even worth it too, so hard to line a shot, the gun sways for miles.
 
So finally got around to downloading it about to jump in just one question is it worth the 7.5 gb of space I have to forfit.

It's the same for all sniper rifles,TR and NC start with bolt actions while VS starts with a semi auto one.You need to buy the 100c one which is a bolt action.

You need to hold shift when you plan to take a shot,it will last around 2 seconds but there will be no sway.
 
Just tried going in to game again now and it seems to be working this time. I logged into my station account and it's now updating. Hopefully I can finally play the game now, and hopefully my PC can handle it.

Just had my first session with some friends and have to say.. its legend! the one thing that does blow my mind is the latency. Can hardly tell if there is any at all :D

Definitely glad i gave this a shot!

Awesome,never knew that.

Can enemy players also hear you if they are close enough?

Oh to answer your question:

Thankfully the game supports squads of 12, which are then grouped into platoons of 48, and a perfect VOIP system means you can chat to anybody you feel like. You can even individually adjust the volume of certain players, and the proximity chat channel means you can listen in to enemy conversations.

Gotta agree. That was some awesome fun!
Playing as a team is definitely the ONLY way I want to experience this game :)
 
Also rolled NC on Woodman, will see some of the guys somewhere.

Must admit, after playing TR for awhile, you can definitely feel the difference in the guns. The NC guns have a much "deeper" (bass) sound , making it feel more powerful.

Perfect, to the point of being the best netcode I've ever seen.

I can vouch for that. I easily had 1000+ ping last night (due to retarded Telkom, the average is about 200 I think) and I was still owning.
Where have you ever heard of such sorcery
 
There were some issues on Woodman last night,jumped out of a Reaver and fell from a height i should have died from.I killed 3 guys that were constantly shooting at me and there was also a MAX,i put about 2 clips into the Max before dying because of suicide (probably from the fall).

Just on a side note, you can eject out of galaxies without fall damage and i have also survived a few falls from other planes (it is usually the 2nd hop that kills me if you fall at a high speed in forward direction). Also if you are light assault you can jump out of anything and avoid fall damage (they weren't lying in the games' official trailer, you can jetpack on top of planes)

Quite often i climb into a mosquito/scythe/reaver at the warpgate and fly to the action (instead of deploying) . I try to do what i can in the plane, once i see the damage getting hectic i bail and jet pack to the ground and go from there. Alot of fun.

Didn't know about the galaxy part,i'm thinking of playing VS a bit more.

The grinding in this game is just too hectic,on weekdays i can probably make 30certs a day.No way am i going to unlock those 1000cert weapons.It's a shame people can buy them with real money,feels like pay2win.
