XFUNK

yea because there was no such thing as bad pugs or bad players before i14

Good news, change of plans, and i will be home for this. So uh, don't sing it, bring it.

This one is great, and not just because the title is "Victim of da Funk"

So? i figured i'd take a break from the "oh snap". I really dig the new one, so whaddya think?

How about Pure American ? Nah that's a really stupid name. Excellent choice on the powersets though, that was my first toon and still my favorite. Over 5000 hours played. Hit me up if you have any questions on the build once you get the name sorted out. Keep in mind that with energy cloak you'll be pretty much invisible all the time.

No, but through your responses you are starting to resemble the stereotypical PvPer that many PvEers don't like to associate with. I'd like to think you're above that and capable of at least semi-rational discussion of PvP-related things that doesn't degenerate into the usual "us vs. them" rabble.

And the only reason I even entertained the incredibly remote possibility of Hawk's event not being on the level is because of your comment that not only was he more than likely aware of the ramifications of said event, but that he liked the idea of said ramifications. I'm relieved that my slight concern was completely, totally, unfounded and baseless.

I originally came into this thread because I legitimately thought Hawk's event sounded like fun - I remember this event being fun the few times I took part in it back when folks like Taser were organizing them - and because it had potential to maybe get some folks to try PvP by first dangling the badge-carrot in front of them. It's just a shame that at least one person in the PvP community (because Lord forbid I paint you as the sole cause of the PvP dearth in this game ... wait a minute, I never did that) feels that their reputation is more important than doing things that could end up getting more people involved with PvP.

But in any event, have fun being the hero killer (Red=Dead, after all) who thinks people are insinuating things about him when they aren't, and whose matter-of-fact statements ("I PL, I farm, I exploit, I kill innocent players.") induce much laughter. No skin off my back to happily go back to the PvE game and wash my hands of this exchange.

See you in-game, where we can both hopefully retain civility and lightheartedness because, at the end of the day, none of this really matters -- I'm not this much of a smug [censored] (I know you're probably thinking that I am ); you're not some stereotypical, emotionally-retarded PvPtard; and this is a friggin' video game.

And Hawk: Sorry for the massive derail and hope your event goes well. Maybe some fresh blood will be injected into the PvP scene because of it.

Maybe it's just some irreconcilable fundamental difference in personal philosophy between you and I, Funk, but I happen to think that "Wow, that event was great! Now, let's kick the [censored] outta each other!" is a sentiment that will generally encourage future PvP participation, as opposed to "Wow, this event is -- *DEATH* -- Hey, who the [censored] did that?! That sucks!".

And on the outside chance that this really is just a gankfest disguised as a PvE event: bad form, man. Bad form.

[/ QUOTE ]

Please, there's not even anyone on this server worth pulling off an elaborate ruse to draw into the zone. Hawk's event is legit. I kill heroes, it's what i do, everyone knows it. Red = Dead. I'm flattered that you're insinuating that i singlehandedly make it so there is no pvp on Pinnacle,but that's Castle's doing. I PL, I farm, I exploit, I kill innocent players. I guess i'm just a big meaniehead.

Imagine that, people pvp;ing in a pvp zone, where do they get the nerve! Quick someone pm the devs, they mistakenly put BADGES in a pvp zone, this must obviously be wrong. Maybe they can disable pvp for a little while so the precious badges can be had with the ease they are supposed to :P

BLAH BLAH CAREBEAR BLAH BLAH BADGEZ BLAH BLAH PVP

Not once in my post did I make any sort of asinine complaint about PvP. A certain breed of PvPer, yes. But not PvP. Recluse's Victory is a PvP zone; you'd have to be either naive or stupid to expect to go in there and not possibly deal with PvP of some sort.

But bear with me here, Funk. What if - and this is big, so you might wanna sit down - we get a whole bunch of people together in RV for an event, an event during which they'll have a good time? And what if afterward, since they've all had a good time, some friendly mass PvP breaks out and nobody cares how many times they eat dirt because it's all awesome and fun? And what if, because of the experience being fun, they become more open to the idea of engaging in PvP more often? Wouldn't that be a good thing?

Or does ganking distracted noobs who'll likely never again step foot in a PvP zone once they've been ganked appeal to you more? If it does, well, then maybe the PvP zones in this game deserve to sit largely empty.

[/ QUOTE ]

so why do your hypothetical group of players get to have fun and the "other" group of hypothetical players can't do what they enjoy? What if the "douchebags" outnumber the Badgers? would that mean the badgers are imposing on the douchebags? Or does posting an event on the forums all of a sudden make what goes on in RV the other 364 days of the year all of a sudden a "bad" thing?

Hawk is a regular in our vent, he knows full well all of the possible scenarios surrounding this event, and in a way, i think he likes it

[ QUOTE ]
Sounds great, Hawk! This was done a few times back in the day and it was always fun. And just like back then, when everyone's done, maybe we can all engage in some friendly Pv ...

Uh, yeah. On second thought, I think I'll pass. I just remembered that there will probably be douchebags who'll show up for no other reason than to gank those whose guards might be down because they're too busy fighting AVs. And I play this game as an escape from the douchebags I must deal with in the real world.

Funny how there is people that complain that the farm arcs are preventing their "sure bet dev choice" stories from being ran, yet they see no problem flooding the boards with arc spam. Didn't mean be harsh, post your crap in here.... http://boards.cityofheroes.com/postl...Board=villains

Oh i thought you said it was this saturday, which is when i'll be at this..... www.paxahau.com/p4x4hau/index.php on as many different hallucinogenic substances as i can scrounge up, standing by gigantic walls of speakers while stuff like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tR0WMdIqxus and this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_ngYkndfjw are played at full blast.

If i recover in time for this event the following week, i'll be there for the level 50 matches.

this game isnt hard to play lol
People dont wanna waste their life away grinding.
99% of the people who play this game PL & its been like that since I started this game yrs ago.

GL to them trying to nerf PL.

[/ QUOTE ]

Um, wait just a minute. What grinding? I mean, come on, man. The missions and story arcs and TFs/SFs throughout the game have great stories. Why is it such a grind to level for people like you? Because you make it that way. If you never read the stories and get into the adventure you will not enjoy the game and you will probably end up just leaving again when your AE farms get nerfed and you can't hurry up the dings all the time any more.

PLing is not what the game is all about and 99% of the players of this game DO NOT do it too, just 99% of the people you happen to see and team with. If you never leave Atlas Park or Peregrine Island you're never going to see teams that don't PL. I suggest you try actually playing through the missions sometime. Take the time to actually read them. Enjoy the story. Stop waiting for the ding of your next level. Otherwise you're just a quitter waiting for a nerf to piss you off.



[/ QUOTE ]

These wonderful "stories" you speak of get old after 1-2 times, if that's your idea of compelling content, then you mustalso enjoy watching grass grow, because I, like many people, grew tired of dev's idea of content long ago.

go to paragon wiki and see what bonuses you want for your build, unless you want a 10 page argument about which is better and then watch it turn into complaining about low drop rates and how pvp gota killed off. just saying. There isn't a "right set for your toon ,you need to decide what needs a boost and slot accordingly. You're better off posting in the blaster forum.

[ QUOTE ]
I just came back to the game after a 1 year break, people told me.. you missed it dude, you could have lvl'd a new toon 1-50 in 8 hours!
Well, I have to say I love the new AE. I was tinkering with creating missions, I really enjoy it. Also I tested how fast you can lvl 1-50 after they nerfed it, I ran lvl 54 boss missions and got a new MM 1-50 in 2 days. Not bad.

But... I will not be using AE to powerlevel my character's, I enjoy creating missions to play & have other's play.

AE was a very nice surprise for me coming back after 1 yr.

A level 1 can hit lvl 18 in 1 run "15 min's". So I'd say that would be ok for someone to do since the 1st 18 - 20 levels are painful.

[/ QUOTE ]

it was more like 4 hours.....

And you can make a legal map on live right now that gets you 1-26 in 28 mins, 26-35 in another 28 mins. So 1-35 in less than an hour.

Ok. So now I have to put in an accuracy in place of the end-red that I put in to replace the inital accuracy. Awesome... Thanks for clearing that up.

I would recommend 3 recharge, and 2-3 accuracy on a good team-friendly kin.
