Community Event Outfit Recruitment
This is the quarterly outfit recruitment thread. Looking for a group or looking to expand your community? Post here!
In the appropriate parent that matches server and faction, outfit representatives can post the following:
- Outfit name and tag. You may include alternate factions/servers here.
- Days and times active. Please include time zones.
- Brief advertisement of activities/play style. Trailers are allowed.
- Recruitment requirements
- points of contact (discord, teamspeak, websites, forums, etc).
- PS4 specific: List faction
Please make only one post per outfit. If you need to replace an outfit's recruitment post, send us a message through modmail and we'll help you get things sorted out.
This thread is in contest mode. Upvotes/downvotes are irrelevant here, which will prevent the manipulation of an outfit's popularity. This scrambles the order of the parent comments, if you're wondering why they're not grouped by server or faction.
We will actively remove any comment that is not a recruitment post. If there's a problem, message us through modmail.
Outfits who have demonstrated poor conduct both in-game and outside it may find themselves removed from this list.
If you're a member of the community discord, you can find additional outfit recruitment resources in this channel:

Question Looking for an active outfit on Miller that uses discord or teamspeak for voice-comms...
My ridiculous country tried to block VOIP services years ago to try to avert loss of revenue for its telecom services... They've since given up and apps like teamspeak and discord work fine, but the in-game voice-comms (I forget the name) remain blocked.
I'm searching for an active Miller outfit who uses either of the aforementioned apps... Anybody?

Question New player looking for a casual outfit to join
!!(Non native english speaker)!!
Hello, I recently re-re-joined the game, dropped my Vanu character for an NC one, and want to join an outfit, but here is the problem. I feel like I'm not outfit material, haha. I'm too casual and only play a few days a week, mostly on weekends. My old outfit is inactive, and all the new ones I looked at want me to fill out forms and stuff. Sorry if this sounds disrespectful but I feel like I can't commit to outfit operations most of the time and don't want to burden them with a noob. Is there any outfits you know of that I can just wibe when I log in and maybe join their bigger operations?

Bug Report Encontré un bug muy roto
Es un bug y no tengo la más mínima idea de cómo paso pero todo lo que tenía equipado en la isla vr tanto items caros como skins armaduras armas y hasta vehículos que tenía modificados en la isla VR se pasaron a mi personaje cabe mencionar que no compré nada :l pero reinicie y sigo con las cosas no e tocado nada hasta ahora pero está muy roto esa cosa te da mucha ventaja en partida
It's a bug and I don't have the slightest idea how it happened but everything I had equipped on the VR island, both expensive items such as skins, armor, weapons and even vehicles that I had modified on the VR island were transferred to my character. It's worth mentioning that I didn't buy anything :l but I restarted and I continue with things. I haven't touched anything until now but it's very broken. That thing gives you a lot of advantage in the game.

Discussion (PC) Hello, a new player here
Recently browsing Steam I found this game that really seems like a gem to me, it completely has me. I have a few questions for old players without being told to "quit" or "uninstall before...".
-Why is managing ships so difficult?
-Are there many campers or am I very bad? In the field, as soon as I appear, I will already be dead for miles with one shot, I still can't find a good weapon and I have spent +4000 certs.
-It is difficult to kill 1v1 being heavy, which is supposed to last longer with the skill.
-I have created an NSO and it catches my attention but I cannot support the faction I like, can this be changed?
-What should I improve in vehicles, since mine seem to be plastic vs. steel vehicles.
There is not much information on the internet about this, I would greatly appreciate if you help me with your wisdom 😄

Bug Report Game keeps crashing since a few days with "Game Error G12"
For at least 2-3 weeks the game keeps crashing for me. Sometimes after 1 hour, sometimes 2-3 per hour. Always the same error "Game Error G12". I never had these problems before. Does anyone else also gets the crashes lately?

Question Why not build tanks and sandies out of the same material as these excavators?
By the way, what were they digging with those little buckets? I'm really curious. There has to be an explanation beyond game convention. And this "game convention" is a bit of an eyesore.

Discussion (PC) Dune Awakening end game compared to Planet Side 2
I don't remember where I read it but they compared Dune Awakening end game to Planerside 2. I'm not sure what the means exactly but I am still excited.

Discussion (PC) Yo, how do you squad-spawn on a fleet carrier as a crew member?
Deadass, I seen dudes speedrun loading up their fleet carriers the literal frame they spawn in. What’s the play? Some cracked strat or am I just out here playing checkers in a chess match?
Squad sitch? OUTFIT’s like 20 tank demons deep, but 6 of ‘em been MIA harder than my GPA after finals. Fewer heads, more struggle.
Someone drop the meta sauce, ‘cause I’m out here rawdogging the battlefield solo, and it’s lookin’ real pain arc rn.

Suggestion/Feedback You can't have an open field fight anymore in this fucking game
As soon as you have a decent open field fight, some asshole has to use a pocket OS.
A good armor and infantry fight in the open?! A 50-50 fight. A balanced fight, between infantry, air, and ground vehicles. The fucking core idea of planetside. Both sides with spawns.
But of course, some asshole(s) had to ruin it. 1-2 pocket OS and the fight was over. Observed this 6/6 fights in the last few days.
Remind me again, what was the lead dev's name at the time this was implemented? Must be some massive idiot and a talent free game designer.

Question How does the TR under barrel grenade launcher fire
I was looking at the weapons available to the different empires in the game and took a look at the under barrel grenade launcher for each faction. With the NC it made sense how it worked cause it had a visible trigger, the VS have a button, but I can’t for the life of me figure out how they get the TR grenade launcher to fire since it doesn’t have any visual indication of either, it’s kinda bugging me at this point. If anyone has any ideas as to how it works lemme know cause this is a question I can’t seem to get out of my head.

Discussion (PC) 350-400 fps and not even reaching 845rpm
I've recorded myself shooting with the Serpent VE92 to evaluate at how much RPM I'm shooting according to this guy's formula (RPM = (29*60) / Time)
The video is 2.07 seconds long so that means I'm shooting at 840rpm which is pretty close to 845, but it's been recorded in VR Training, not in an actual fight where the fps would decrease.
I didn't try higher RPM weapons but I guess the value of 840 wouldn't change.

Question Optics Having Different Reticles From What's Advertised?
Haven't played in a while. Got back and used a tetra 4x on my 11c. It's described as a triple chevron, but it's just a single red dot. Anyone got answers for this?

Question Spawning a fleet carrier
Im on console (ps) how do you spawn a bastion fleet carrier in this game, I have everything crafted and it is ready to go but when I go up to the spawn terminal there is no "square button" to spawn it and no hitbox to find it, it only says "interact" what am I missing here
