It's likely that many players are experiencing driver incompatibility issues.

Estimated downtime may be up to 6 hours. Please see the patch notes below.

Maintenance duration
This March update will involve an extended maintenance period of up to 6 hours instead of the usual 3 hours, as we continue our ongoing work to improve server stability and overall performance.


Crashes and Disconnections / Auto-Kicks
Our main goal is to provide players with a smooth and comfortable gameplay experience. Therefore, issues related to crashes and disconnections/auto-kicks remain our highest priority.


While the latest hotfix significantly reduced the number of crashes — as confirmed by both player reports and internal logs — we were still observing several recurring issues. In this patch, we have addressed a number of them and implemented additional stability improvements.


Unfortunately, not all crashes can be resolved on our side. Some issues are caused by conflicts between the operating system and hardware, which are beyond the game’s control. However, we are providing guidance to help players avoid certain problems.

G12 Crash Investigation

We have investigated the G12 crash.
Our findings indicate that it is caused by issues with the DirectX driver or the graphics card.
Players experiencing this issue (receiving the "G12" error code after a crash) should:

• Update their graphics card drivers to the latest version.
• If their system has both integrated and discrete graphics cards (commonly found in laptops), try disabling the integrated graphics card through the BIOS.

Please note: On the latest versions of Windows 11, the system may lose detection of graphics devices when switching between GPUs. This behavior is related to the operating system and cannot be fixed on the game’s side.

Other Crash related Fixes

• Fixed several crashes caused by errors in the audio system.
• Implemented additional internal stability improvements to reduce unexpected disconnections and auto-kicks.

We will continue monitoring crash reports and player feedback to further improve stability in future updates. We are also planning to give more readable error messages in case of crash\autokicks to speed up the investigations in future.

This not some arena based combat scenario where players need to be shown "Over there is the a-hole that shot you in the back" revealing them to you and your allies. Kill cams completely ruin the stealth concept of the game especially nowadays following infiltrator nerfs. You dont rely on your dead ally to tell you where they were shot you rely on observing where the shots came from or where you saw the person run. There are reasons this didnt exist back in the Higby days.

In detail
Still gonna keep it brief but kill cams have no place in Planetside 2 given the original nature and design of the game being centered around large battles and realistic military coordination. This game through out the later half of its existence has slowly started to become like CoD or other arena combat games (which frankly is part of what's hurt it). Realistically how do you as an individual soldier on the field know where you got sniped from? Only way to tell is entry and exit wound, or by you or a fellow soldier seeing the muzzle flashes or smoke trail from tracer rounds.

Kill cams make it way too easy to find infiltrators providing sniper support, or to find cloaked Sunderers by showing exactly where the person who shot you is standing, rather than relying on looking where the gunfire is coming from. Also reveals to the individual to tell squad mates where their killer ran to and hid in a close quarters fight further compromising any element of surprise by players hiding behind cover. Anyone who believes kill cams are good for the game don't get the picture or have a proper understanding of the game's design.]]> Thu, 19 Feb 2026 21:52:58 +0000 https://forums.daybreakgames.com/ps2/index.php?threads/its-waay-overdo-to-kill-the-killcam.265043/ https://forums.daybreakgames.com/ps2/index.php?threads/its-waay-overdo-to-kill-the-killcam.265043/ JarredGalaxy JarredGalaxy 8 Fri, 06 Mar 2026 14:26:06 +0000 https://forums.daybreakgames.com/ps2/index.php?threads/why-are-maxes-unbalanced.265061/ https://forums.daybreakgames.com/ps2/index.php?threads/why-are-maxes-unbalanced.265061/ tigerchips tigerchips the server latency has increased.

1st image, every few hours the pinned mission appears with the larger minimap


2nd image, I press H to resize the minimap and it works as expected


3rd image, I press H again and the pinned mission disappears. That's the bug.

Beyond this point pressing H alternates between appearing like the second and third image. You can't have both a large minimap and pinned mission displayed together USUALLY until for some reason the pinned mission appears again in an hour or two. The minimap and pinned missions always behave like this whenever playing the game.]]> Tue, 03 Mar 2026 08:27:27 +0000 https://forums.daybreakgames.com/ps2/index.php?threads/inconsistent-behavior-of-pinned-mission-display-when-changing-minimap-size.265057/ https://forums.daybreakgames.com/ps2/index.php?threads/inconsistent-behavior-of-pinned-mission-display-when-changing-minimap-size.265057/ Lehv Lehv 3

Stacking multiple repair source and healing sources still scales far more strongly than it's supposed to. For instance, Sunderers equipped with fully upgraded Nanite Armor, a level 4 Repair Station, and just two Engineers, can currently comfortably withstand multiple tanks and anti-vehicle Heavies all firing at it.

Stacking multiple healing sources as infantry, has caused disruption to the intended feel and flow of infantry-based combat engagements. This can easily occur if multiple Medics activate their Nano-Regen Device area-of-effect healing ability at the same time, or if multiple Medics use their Medical Applicators to heal a single target.

Repair sources that I can definitively say are affected by the scaling bug:

• Nano-Repair Grenade
• Nano-Armor Kit
• Nanite Armor
• Repair Station
• Fire Suppression
• Nanite Proximity Repair System

Repair sources that I have not personally tested yet:

• Nanite Auto Repair System (both the vehicle variant and the MAX suit variant)
• Repair Drone (exclusive to NSO Engineers)
• Aircraft Synergy
• Emergency Repair
• Berserker Implant
• Rank 5 Robotics Technician Implant
• Electrotech Implant

Infantry healing sources that I can definitively say are affected by the scaling bug:

• Medical Applicator
• Nano-Regen Device
• Restoration Kit
• Nano-Regen Grenade

Infantry healing sources that I have not personally tested yet:

• Cleansing Grenade
• Triage Pulse (exclusive to TR Medics)
• Triage
• Nanite Auto Repair System (the NSO-exclusive infantry variant)
• Cure Launcher underbarrel grenades (T1A Unity, Gauss Prime, Darkstar, AR-ARX Maxwell)
• Adaptive Class Underbarrel when used by a Medic (NS-66 Punisher)
• Regeneration Implant
• Rank 5 Survivalist Implant
• Mending Field Implant
• Rank 5 Robotics Technician Implant (if the Engineer is seated in a MANA Turret

I do hope this can be addressed within a reasonable timeframe.

Crashes issue

• We have received a significant number of reports from players regarding crashes and disconnects following the February update. After an investigation, we determined that these were not client-side crashes, but kicks triggered by the anti-cheat system. In this hotfix, we have adjusted the anti-cheat system to reduce the likelihood of false positives (unintended kicks).

Bug Fixes

• Matchmaker: Sightseeing Mission fixed.
• The Stalker Cloak ability now recharges while standing still. Fixed recharge functionality across all ability levels.
• Permissions in Construction are now working properly.

Though there are times when it happens randomly in very clear zones.

I guess it has something to do with the range you hold out the item. The moment you pull something, it's actually around 10 meters away from you, meaning it could be inside a NDZ the moment it's pulled and thus bugs out.

I've also noticed when it happens, the minimap is zoomed all the way out OR zoomed all the way in.

I've almost never gotten this bug now after being mindful of staying far away from NDZ zones AND having my minimap strictly zoomed out between 3 or 4 times when pulling an item. Hope this helps.A Reddit user commented on this, but I haven't checked if it works.

After several hours of farming, I had saved a little over 2300 certs and decided to start gearing my Heavy Assault class. I attempted to purchase the T2 Striker, which costs 1000 certs.
However, when I clicked to buy it, instead of deducting 1000 certs, all of my certs were removed, leaving me with around 300 certs remaining. It seems either the weapon was purchased multiple times or I was charged twice incorrectly.
I spent a significant amount of time farming — as well as real money on membership and boosts — specifically to earn these certs, so losing them due to what appears to be a bug is very frustrating.
Could you please check my account transactions and verify what happened?

I have had an issue over the last few days where I can not deal damage consistently with any vehicle weapons, and occasionally, infantry weapons. This issue is not limited to the Skyguard, it occurs for all vehicle weapons, turrets, etc., and damage cannot be dealt to enemy armor, aircraft, or infantry consistently. In addition, the Heavy rocket launchers suffer from the same issue. Only after persistent firing do hitmarkers register and damage is dealt. The bug seems to be unique to my account, as I have not seen other reports. This is on Osprey, but I have noticed the bug on all of my accounts, regardless of faction. This video is on my NC account.

The only possible complication that may make my situation unique is that I am game streaming over Moonlight/Sunshine, and I am playing using a remote connection (Host computer in one city, client in another), but I do not see how this could cause this problem. I also have an especially old account that has not been active in a couple of years ( I joined around 2013, haven't played actively since 2023 as I can recall).

The video is in VR training, but the same issue manifests in combat against actual players. I have made a couple reports using /bug but haven't heard back. I was able to confirm that other players perceive that my rounds hit them, but they do not register any damage, unless I get a hitmarker. This is consistent with my perspective as well.

This makes the game especially difficult to play, as vehicles are invincible and I cannot do anything to counter them. I cannot engage in vehicle play at all, and must avoid them at all times as infantry. I hope there can be a quick resolution to this issue. Please let me know if additional information is needed.
