Quote:Yeah, I listed those NPC Allies for their notoriety in being Ranged fighters, which means their AI goes: "I have a ranged attack ready, so, let me run to the full range of the attack and use it." And that full range just so happens to be standing in the middle of the next foe spawn.hahaha yeah I remember so many of those stupid missions where they'd follow you around and then POW! LEEEROOYYY JENNKINSSSS!! right into an easily avoidable mob, only to die and then you had to start all over.
I wonder if Synapse can aggro 5 groups in 3 seconds. -
I've been duly compensated in Vindication Merits.

Quote:No cost but time? Time *is* money. And there are more productive ways to earn money than caretake 100 free accounts over the course of 25 days.Well, a better concern is if they can get 25pp's then they can buy a costume part. If that can turn a Free player into a Premium player, then they can send tells and use gleemail. Since there's no actual cost to them except time, they can earn influence, salvage, etc., to sell, then at 30 days unload that character's stuff, become Premium, do a mass email/tell spam-a-thon, and throw the account away. This is more than they can do currrently without resorting to credit card fraud (not that I think they have anything against it).
Besides, we don't know if just one tiny purchase is enough to become Premium. And if it is, it may well be still a very limited account.
Besides, if the bar for becoming Premium is that low, then the RMTs will spend the $5 to become Premium immediately to do all the things you think they can get away with as a Premium account and then earn $20 for each account they invested $5 in. -
Quote:You mean like Day Job Badges and Day Job Powers?You'll have to balance the benefit of extending that sort of thing against the complaints you'll generate from people who will feel slighted by the very small amount of points they can earn. And it doesn't really matter if the complaint appears irrational: if you want to try to convince me that something is better than nothing and the number of people who would complain and cause a problem under those circumstances would be extremely small, you may certainly give it your best shot.

First, I'd like you to explain how you got past the account-sharing gate. Sure, you might be able to buy a pass along a Point-bought inspiration from one free account to another. But how are you going to get your other free accounts to unlock AE access on your main accounts since I'm assuming you can't gleemail Paragon Points?Quote:One more thing: if this thing is very time consuming it will be seen as a grind on top of being infinitesimal. But if it doesn't take a lot of time, since points can buy consumables I can sign up for a hundred free accounts and earn a ton of points across those accounts, bypassing the time gates. -

I'd love to see how some of the emotes play with the Titan Weapons out.

Well, you actually *could* reward Freeks and Preems with Paragon Points for doing stuff in the game if you gate the Points per day.
So, let's say the Preems can do something that earns a Point, and there's the usual 20 hour cool down before they can earn another point. They'll be earning on average 30 points per month. That's about 7.5% the rate of a VIP, plus they have to do stuff, so, if they skip a day, they don't get it.
It will whet their appetite. When they get 35 Points and they have their eyes on the 50 Point item, they'll break down and buy Points. Their glacial accumulation will cause them to buy points or subscribe for the 'free' 400 Points/mo. -
The AE Edition was a 'celebration' of the AE, not access to it.

Did you just say 'mew'?

Quote:I have some good news and some bad news for you.I'd like to throw in my two cents on rewarding VIPs for playing with Freeps and Preems: I actually think this sends the wrong message. "You have cooties so bad that we have to bribe our VIPs to play with you."
The good news is that you get 100 Points for playing with Freeks and Preems. The bad news is that cootie shots cost 150 points. -
Quote:Scrapperlock, meet Scrappercrack.The Titan Weapons set will feature the Momentum mechanic, which speeds up the animations of attacks the more Momentum you build. The more you attack the more Momentum you build, so at the start you'll have those slow lumbering attacks, but as you keep on pressing the attack your attack animations will be faster.

It has started to get staggeringly high ratings once they included the laser dot jumping around in the background.

What was tested previously starting almost a year ago were the Incarnate Trials: BAF, Lamda, Keyes, and The Underground.
That was a separate Closed Beta track from the Closed Beta for Issues, for they still had separate Closed and Open Betas for Issues 19 and 20.
I would imagine that right now the folks that were part of the in-person focus group are giving feedback to how the devs are implementing CoH:Freedom as well as what's available for Issue 21.
About the third or fourth 'wave' of Closed Beta, they start inviting long-time Vets and random picks. We still see people who have never been in Beta before, or even on the Test Server get into Closed Beta early. They like to have a wide range of view for input. -
