THe main thing as far as I've heard, is to join an outfit, any outfit that you think sounds interesting/helpful. Ingame voice chat or no, you still can only get so much organization out of unrelated people. A group of people usually is much more able to do interesting things, with potential backup from the mass of disorganized non-outfit players rushing about.

I find that being a fighter pilot is one of the most fun things in this game. Dogfights are much more thrilling than land combat and it works fine with the mouse for me. Plus, the skies are much "spammy" than the ground.

So many nooblets around who don't know how to take out a fighter. I got quite a few kills today flying a Mosquito around and strafing tanks and infantry and intercepting enemy aircraft. No one could stop me except for the wall that I ran into after a good twenty minutes in the air.
I can already tell this is going to be a roller coaster ride of disappointment.

'except for the immobile, harmless terrain'

I really find that after putting like 300 hours into x2/3, I need to rebind the rotation to q/e, and unbind it from the mouse.. but I cant :(

I just gave planetside 2 a try.

Let me put it this way. I suck at this kind of shooter. I have like a .6 K/D after getting sniped a bunch and making no progress... but I'm pretty certain I saw Total Biscuit. I tried to shoot him but I missed. God damn it. I think that if I were good at the game, I'd be having some fun. Like, I feel like I just don't know what I'm doing. Thing is, 2 hours melted away just by me dying constantly and making no headway. If I were good at the game, it would be very dangerous indeed.

YES! That is the only thing I want for fighters.  :(
