What Faction Will We Play?

Terran Republic
- High Rate of Fire
- Low Damage per hit
- Fast VTOLs
An authoritarian government that leverages military might to maintain strict control over the colonial citizens. The Terran Republic is obsessed with the preservation of law and order and are thus seen by some to be an oppressive and dictatorial force, but many view the TR as the only hope for lasting security on Auraxis. Their colors are red and black. TR forces are distinguished by their use of rapid fire weapons and miniguns, large magazines, and high speed ground and air vehicles. 

New Conglomerate
- Low Rate of Fire
- High Damage per hit
- Slow but hard hitting VTOLs. 
The New Conglomerate operates as a loosely organized band of freedom fighters, vehemently opposed to the stranglehold that the Terran Republic has on Auraxis. Led by an unusual quorum of outcasts, industry titans, and pirates, the New Conglomerate is unwavering and prepared to achieve freedom from oppression by any means necessary. Their colors are blue and gold. NC forces use hard hitting gauss weaponry that is devastating at short and medium ranges with a slow reload time, supported by heavily armored shock troops and durable vehicles and aircraft that also have the highest damage per shot in the game, but lower magazine sizes. They are fighting for freedom, rather than duty or technology. 
 
Vanu Sovereignty
- Balanced Guns
- Balanced Vehicles
- Very Agile.
The Vanu Sovereignty believes that only through the mysterious power of ancient technology can humanity truly evolve its next state of existence. They are an advanced and cunning faction, employing powerful alien technology on the battlefield. Their singular purpose is to uncover the secrets hidden away in ancient artifacts scattered over the surface of Auraxis, and they annihilate anyone who interferes with their progress. Their colors are purple and green. Vanu employ advanced plasma and laser technology on the battlefield, distinguished by lack of bullet drop, high accuracy, and low recoil, as well as highly maneuverable hovering tanks and Empire Specific Fighters. 

Additional Details
The name of the game is simple, three factions battle for territory over a single map. What we'll be doing is joining the same server and faction (hence the voting). We'll then create our own outfit (Planetside 2's equivelant of a clan) so we can all get together. Then, once we get into the game, we will create a platoon (our group that will be fighting for resources and territory). Each platoon is broken into squads of four, and each squad has 12 players. 

For voice/chat, we will be utilizing PlanetSides in-game system to communicate. Each squad has their separate voice chats. But of course you have platoon chat where you can cross-chat between squads. 

RealKilla_789 has offered to stream the game night since there is both Youtube and Twitch integration in the game. RealKilla_789 may also be offering up a tutorial video to help out those who are not experienced with what PlanetSide 2 has to offer. 

Finally, should the turn out be fruitful we can consider creating an emblem to commemorate the occasion.

Umm, well, why not? Always did wanna try Planetside 2, but most of my friends IRL never did, for some reason...

Anywayz. But wait, if I created an account or character or whatever on--let's say AU--but the community goes for the US server, or vice versa, how's that gonna work? Can I transfer back and forth between servers (easily)?

You're character is tied to the server. So yes, if you want to go to new server, you'll have to create new character.

Cool. An EU server would be awesome. If it ends up being US only, I'll join anyway. But my ping will be horrible. :P

Hmm, that's too bad then. I don't wanna create AND develop new characters repeatedly on different servers.

But thanks anyway.

 LOL. Ok, my big sis & I will see if we can make it. So we're all gonna be LOWBIES there then? But it's not even decided what faction AND server we're ALL goin for, sigh...

 BTW, I know there's a tutorial above, but if we DO make it, are we gonna have some kind of... IDK... "training day" before the big fight? Ya know, some sorta boot camp, if you will. I mean, tutorial videos are fine and all, but just like real-world militaries, actual training is WAY better. Ya know, for command & communications, cover, fire & movement & other tactical training. Hell, you can even be our very own potty-mouthed drill sergeant! LAWL. Or are we just gonna rush in there, yellin' and guns blazin' like an Army of OMAs with our heads cut off?  LOL  :lol:

Whoops, accidently edited your post instead of replying. I do stupid things sometimes when I wake up early.

Anyways, yea there will be some type of crash course. I also suggest people play a few games before the game night. That'll be in the next telegram.

I think I can join for this... though I'm not happy to be playing as the Vanu, NC for life.

I'm sure I can give a hand with training as well, if needed.

Hey Guys, I just heard from Synthia and she sends her regrets, but she doesn't believe she going to make it to the game night tonight.

Fortunately we've got RealKilla_789 here to guide us though the world of PlanetSide.

As a reminder, he's running the chat and stream over at http://www.twitch.tv/realkilla_789 and we start in an hour, so go get the game if you haven't already!

Yeah had a great time. I was a bit out of practice but got some cracking kills in my tanks and that end battle when we got locked inside the shields was crazy. :)

I've watched the videos and thanks for the air support when I was in the Magride, I would have told you to bail out when I did, but my voice chat had completely bugged. I couldn't hear what anyone was saying. So I had no idea Realkilla_789 was telling me to get a Galaxy, I just sort of guessed that was the plan. Good thing I know how to fly one of them boats haha.

I managed to go from battle rank 1 to 8 in that sitting, so I feel I did fairly well. It was fun and we'll have to do it again sometime.
