NEWS OF THE WEEK: Double xp/sc weekend, Outfit specialization, Training Days...

Hello everyone,

I'm planning on making a news collumn every week on thursday, so everyone will be up-to-date when it comes to our Outfit and the game(s) itself. Enjoy reading!

Double xp/sc weekend (Easter Event)
Luperza: "Get your Station Cash ready! I can confirm to you that yes, we will have a double SC and double XP weekend." (source[www.planetside-universe.com])
So my suggestion to you guys, get your credit-card ready, buy a decent amount of SC and get those lovely weapons you were dreaming off all the time. A couple of recommended items:

• Skyguard (for the lightning)
  
• Zepher/Dalton (liberator)
  
• Phoenix (camera-guided RPG), or Annihalator (all-round guided), or crow (vehicle guided)
  
• Rocket Pods (for the reaver)
  
• Walkers or Rangers (for the sunderer)
  
• Secondary Burster for Max (mossies and scythes will fall down like flies)
  
• AV-Turret (for the engineer)
  
• SMG's (all infantry-classes)
  
• Also keep an eye out for the big Infantry bundles/vehicle bundles.

I suggest to use you SC for the expensive weapons (700 SC/1.000 certs), also try you weapons in the Training Facility first before buying. Another tip: If you buy the not-empire-specific weapons with Station Cash, you can also use them on your other characters. ES (empire-specific) weapons will be available on all characters of the same faction off course. Buying with certs only makes it available to that character you unlocked it with.

Outfit Specialization
As you might know we are at the moment an all-round outfit when it comes to strategy and tactics. Something that's not really a problem as long as we're having fun. But, as I noticed on the Roadmap[www.planetside2.com] lately. It seems like we're getting a new progression system for outfits somewhere in june. (For more information see: Outfit Progression[forums.station.sony.com])
If this comes out, we will probably be forced to specialize our outfit in a way. For example: Specializing in a strong armor division with vanguards, skyguards and sundies. On the other side, maby this is not the case and you get some general benefits to choose from for you outfit.

So my question to you, members of the outfit is: Where do you think we should specialize in, or shall we just keep it the way it is now? (for disccusion join this thread)

Training Day
We are also thinking about organizing a training day for all members once in a month. We still have a lot of members not knowing what to do when it comes to the little details off attacking or defending a base. For instance: keeping an eye on enemy engineers close to a friendly sunderer.
As these are things that can be learned to everyone who is willing to and increase the fun in playing this game, I would like to organize a training day in the Training Facility and show some of the tactics that are possible. (for disccussion join this thread)

TeamSpeak 3
One last important thing I want to add, we still have a lot of members who don't use TeamSpeak. We are going to make this mandatory for our outfit, so please download and join us on TS. It is always nice and cozy with friendly people to talk with. Just don't be afraid of talking in English. If you think you suck at it, don't feel ashamed. We are glad to help you getting better at it. (You can find all the information for TS you need on the main page of this group)

Thanks for reading!
