  • Planetside 2.

    Was pretty new to the game and just wsndering around as a sniper when a guy in a transport pulled up and told me to get in.

    Boarded the transport and drove around for a bit when we crossed a hill that sat above an enemy camp.

    I jumped out as he drove on and started scouting the camp from the hill. Felt a bit lonely and asking myself if jumping out here was a good idea at all.

    After a while, I chose to shoot and see where it lands to see how high I need to aim to adjust for bullet drop.

    Suddenly I hear a loud ‘boom’ and an explosion roughly where I was shooting at. Then another ‘boom’ and another explosion.

    Turned around to be surprised by 5 friendly tanks in one line behind me unloading at the enemy camp.

    After about 20 more seconds, my hill was swarmed with all kinds of friendly tanks and personell, just blasting away at the camp.

    It was as if I went from a lonely scout newb to somehow spearheading the attack, which felt really cool.


















  • Get a pirate hat. Wear that pirate hat. If they start the convo, quickly let them know you are on the lookout for more booty.

    On a more serious note, other than having something interesting to talk about (dog, coloured hair, pirate hat), be sure to watch the eyes and try to hold eye contact with people who interest you first. We look at things that interest us. But please don’t stare!

    Longer than one second is basically a big sign of interest, so maybe crack a smile. IF they are super interested and confident, chances are good that they will approach you.

    Good luck, sailor.
