    I always thought it'd be funnier if the Friends list said "You have NO FRIENDS", if you didn't have anyone added...

    Back in alpha it did for a while, I didn't think that would go over too well with real players though.

    When I worked in QA for another publisher one of the Xbox live titles I was permanently assigned to (forever and ever and ever)
    Had that text bug in the Friends list for live... it said "You have no friends" The Devs were leaving text bugs till very last so for the length of it's test life we had fun coming up with the rest of the thought here are a few of my fav's

    You Have No Friends:

    ...Loser

    ...Because you sit at home and play video games all day

    ...Except your sock puppet Hector

    ...Your Mom doesn't count

    ...and no girl will ever talk to you

    ...Except me, your xbox, I am the only one who will ever understand you, or love you...now, do my bidding!

    ...But friends are overrated

    ...But cheer up, you do have some Enemies!
  4. I so far personally have not seen anything SOO horrible that it couldn't wait a week for a patch, myself, however I have noticed a few things which are clearly bugs, and that ( when I was working QA for an MMO) would be relagated to the bottom of the list.

    Things are released and go live all the time and these minor bugs are never fixed, but they really DON'T interfere with gameplay mechanics, text bugs, minor graphics and collision bugs, that sort of thing.


    (and yes I know there is the Khel crash and some bugs with the powers, I am not talking about that stuff)


    And we can all sit here and say "Well it seems like it would be such an easy fix, why don't they just fix it?" well that's why exactly


    We didn't report anything that their own internal QA didn't already report, and I am sure there were some real nose ripping, game crashing, bad bad bugs that we will never see because those had priority when internal QA found them.

    The stuff that is easy and quick to fix gets fixed when the stuff that is time consuming and hard to fix gets done.

    there are certain little bugs that the game will always have, just because there will always be something more urgent to fix, or develop in the first place.

    Just so you know ... there are no ambushes in hazard zones.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You know, I read that, but since I read that supposed change I've had three (3) ambushes in Perez Park. These were ambushes in the 30s, way above the level of Perez Park, one just last week.

    Now I only had two enemies attack me each time, so it was no big deal. I didn't /bug it, although perhaps I should have.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I get ambushed in perez all the time, two last week in fact... do the dev's no longer consider Perez a hazard zone?
  6. HA! Travel power!! So basically the Bug that happened when you left a store with fly on and the foward key held down, has been "removed" or "fixed" from the normal game to be sold to suckers willing to pay 50$ for it?


    well why not, I mean selling bugs as features has kept Microsoft alive for years...


    Incidentally, I loved that bug, and I am annoyed that I now have to pay to get it back! I once street surfed from the magic shop all the way around Talos island till I hit a set of steps I couldn't get around, very fun!

    giving blasters force shields and other defensive powers?


    [/ QUOTE ]

    If a blaster gets to level 40, they have most likely already availed themselves of pools that provide some defense, Hover, Stealth, Hasten, or taken Health and Stamina to compensate for the lack of defense also tough, and weave, or even leadership. as long as a blaster cannot suddenly cast bubbles on others, I don't think this will unbalance the game horribly, or make bubbler Defs and controllers obsolete, but when you can get one-shotted by some even level minions, how are you helping your team?

    [ QUOTE ]
    giving controllers damage dealing powers?


    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'm sorry but you have clearly never teamed with a high level controller who has phaton army or Phantasm or any pet really, they can do massive damage already and by 40 they are already doing it.

    tankers and scrappers with ranged attacks?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    well, if the tanker or scrapper on the team is all that stands between a ranged runner and my death from a shot in the back cause I was busy shooting things off of him from 20 feet up and didn't see the runner, then yes please let the melee AT shoot the gut without losing his stuck-in- place armor, especially when there are comets or sharpshooters around a corner that can target the team but are target blocked from me.

    defenders with... very vague description...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Basically the defenders sound like they are going to be able to take the Blaster support (secondary) sets. I think that'd be okay, I can't see a problom with that. They would be able to solo more effectively, and maybe that would stop the "I can't level without a team" feeling

    [ QUOTE ]

    issue 2: group or die
    issue 3: sorry about issue 2, now your character can do everything, no need to even speak to another player

    [/ QUOTE ]

    well unless you bought your character on e-bay, or powerleveled your way to 40 in a two days, you would have to be pretty shallow to suddenly stop being friends or teaming with people you'd spent 40 levels playing with. Once you get up this high, you have either already perfected a solo playing style that suits you fine, and never team anyway, or you have made or joined a nice, big, friend filled SG, that you can fight with and team with and chat with. Just because I can suddenly protect myself a little better does not mean I don't want to team with the defenders is my SG, I hit better, for more damage and live longer when teamed with them, and I have more fun, cause my SG is full of great people to play with. So Idon't think this point holds any water.

    If you are a strong solo player and hate teaming, you have play 40 levels through solo, than Kudos to you for making it solo, here's a treat for the last 10 levels of the game.

    I fyou already team, you won't suddenly stop because you have a laser beam you can shoot from your eyes, or can put a bubble around yourself. as a matter of fact when I read the descriptions I immediatly thought about the AT in my SG and how much each person would like this or how it would help when we did team.. I for one hang back and shoot and our healers feel obligated to run back and heal me, I have gone out of my way to try to make so they don't have to worry about me so much and can concentrate on the melee area, A bubble would be a nice extra towards that goal.

    I know too much babbling, sorry...
  8. um, why don't you just change the disciplines so you can take the while you are held, slept or stunned etc. The description implies that you can take it whille under a status effect, just that it might not do you any good.

    Why not make it work, and make it usable at the time when you need it most? Rather than make a whole new one... just seems silly to me.

    Maybe a quick sideways arm movement with the palm open? Or just raising the arm up with the palm open...

    [/ QUOTE ]


    both good.

    I have been mulling on it to see what would be good too, and I think a quick diagonal slice with the hand.

    flat right palm brought to left shoulder, then quickly sliced towards right hip. head down slightly?

  12. I too Am curious on whether or not and if so how ther enhancement cap works. Is there a point where you can't get more use our of another slot of X on a power.

    For instance if I have five slots on Sniper blast, 3 dam 1 acc and a activation Accel, all SO's, and I put a 6th slot on, and put another damage in it, will it still boost it or have a reach a cap, and should put another acc in it?

    Does anyone know or is there a guide regarding this?

    Speed Cap on swift, may be a better example, when is it useless to keep putting speed in swift? or Defense buffs on hover or stealth. Does anyone know?

    Researchers believe that this aetheric energy appears to be building towards a climax at some point in the near future

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Thinking they had found the source, the Paragon Times sought an interview with the hero Aether, lead investigator for a local detective agency. Brushing aside reporters, he denied being behind any energy releases, adding, "Whoever sensed it, dispensed it."

    When asked about the build toward a future climax he responded, "Stay out of my love life."

    Excellent!!! Thanks for the Laugh!
  14. Okay so is this PL'ing;

    My friend and I start two charcters, team them up, run missions together most of the evening (I wish the was a way to make a super-duo so you didn't have to run the same missions twice when you play this way, seriously we both just took the same ledger to carla brunelli at the same time, and got the ambushes at once for it)

    Then I get sleepy and wantto go to bed, he's still wide awake, there's a hunting mission or two that we each have to do, we park me in safe spot and he goes and clears out as many missions as he can. Now his game play has slowed down a little cause I am not helping him, but he's usually only on for an hour or so more than me anyway. Doing this we have gotten about a level a night

    Is this powerleveling?

    This is a low level alt for me and we are doing it so we could play a team together.
