    Several of my characters that have the Winter Event 2006 badges are missing the Santa Boots and Santa Gloves costume pieces. This seems to be random as other characters on the same server still have them. I have mentioned this to several members of my SG and they have reported that they have characters that have the badges but are missing the costume pieces as well.

    Well, if you didn't run all the missions then you won't have them, unless you are saying they just 'disappeared'.

    I don't like this idea on closed testing.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Why not? I don't see how it's much different from beta testing.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Why not? I believe everyone should get a chance to try it out in the beginning like every other Issue, not like a beta. I could see if this was really a 'paid' expansion, but it isn't.

    I really don't care, but I don't think it should be closed/limited to a certain amount of people.

    No background color because I wanted to be able to print it out.

    One other note is that the info in ParagonWiki seemed to indicate the 40+ contacts all referred you to each other. I didn't not that because 1. I don't have a villain that high to confirm it, and 2. it would be a pain to note all the arrows the way they were described anyway. So I went with what seemed most likely.

    I give it a 10, thanks for the effort

    Keep it the way it is...EARN IT!

    Here's your crank sign, wear it proudly.

    This is a game, an amusement, a hobby. If generating prestige will pay my real-life mortgage, fine, I'll put in the hours, but I already work hard enough in real life.

    I have a nice personal base on Virtue that I've been working on for four months or so that's cost me a million prestige (180,000 of that was a gift from the double xp weekend because I have nine alts in my personal SG).

    It would be terrific if each hero could instantly get a million prestige when he/she signs up to create a personal base. Just because I had to wait four months to get my base built doesn't mean everyone should have to. I would much rather have done it all in a day.

    Bruce Wayne didn't have to earn a dime to create his Batcave, nor did Superman build his Fortress of Solitude from a reporter's pay. The Avengers Mansion was donated by Tony Stark.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You know, I wouldn't have a problem with prestige, if they were to make it a little bit more, Im not going to say everytime you kill someone you should earn like 10,000 prestige, but 100+ for minions would not be half bad either. To sum it up, a general increase would make it alot more fun for me, and no, im not talking about a 25% increase, im talking 100%.

    Not a bad guide at all. There are a few things I'd disagree with, namely group invis which is great for stealthing missions if you don't have recall friend. It supresses if the tank attacks, by the way, so as soon as he/she attacks, there are no aggro problems.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    QFT, I'd take Group Invis over SI anyday & when creating a guide like this, people like to see numbers. Just a though.
  7. Not anymore my dear friends!

    The GvE boxes have been shipped to Walmart stores. As many of you know there has been a delay on getting these on the shelves.

    Many Walmart stores do not expect Good Versus Evil to be in stock until possibly the end of this week. However, the availability may still vary per store - it could be later for some locations. So you may want to call ahead to see if they have it.

    We certainly did not anticipate any delays. Please remember that there are many outside factors that can affect a product once it is packaged and sent out. We simply had no control over this one.

    It appears that Walmart.com is currently out of stock...BUT they have indeed ordered more. That is confirmed.

    Note: There is a separate issue that has delayed the "in-game items only" online package (this is the package you will be able to purchase through PlayNC.com) This delay is unrelated to the Good Versus Evil Box delay. The in-game items only package was delayed for reasons specifically related to the online store.

    [/ QUOTE ]
  8. Hardly! -- I was lucky enough to have this weekend off though But I still stand by my statement
  9. [ QUOTE ]
    I demand a public response on the delay and subsequent non-existance or knowledge there of concerning this "Box set" in Wal-mart stores!

    I want to know whose fault it is and whose to blame. I had to put in vacation time for this expansion and it's non refundable.

    I count on your "websites" to keep me abreast of changes like this.

    RAWR :P

    ANyone else want an answer?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    That is why you should never, ever book off time that any type of online game supplies people. The date can change, and screw up like this are always possible.

    Great summary, a few points for when you do an update, CoV contacts' level ranges are a bit odd from my testing and the feedback I've gotten from people who use my site:

    - Mercy Island contacts' missions level range has been narrowed down to levels 1-8
    - In Port Oakes, Billie Heck appears to be level 6-10, not 5-10.
    - Cap au Diable: Krylov and Percey are set at 10-14, but Peter Themari will offer missions at level 15.

    -- CoV Contacts

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I don't know how you figure Billie Heck is 6-10, you can get him at level 5, and are able to do his missions at 5. Just tested this and concluded this is incorrect.

    Agreed. Very tricky because I am so impatient I got nothing on mine except for a weird background and very unreadable text. FYI the name under it is "Jerry".

    I apologize in advance if there are any spelling errors on the checklists. They have been updated to have issue 6 badges on them. Also, since we have so many badges on both game platforms; they are each 2 pages long. I dont have any website building software so when you print them you will be printing the ads on a different page. Other than that its printer friendly on 8.5*11.

    On accolades, the corresponding (*) matched with the badges required to get them.

    Happy Badge Hunting.

    Or just go the easy way and all but one logg off, the one left stealths to the vines room and stays there while the others make their way there..

    voila, less vines and some ganking will give you a chance to have at the tree..

    It's not as intended, and may be less fun but it WILL mean you'll be able to do the respec trial with almost any group.

    Most of the plans i've seen for the trial and SF's exclude stalkers.
    I'm anoyed at this, stalkers are blasters that don't need as much babysitting. A good stalker will certainly be doing huge amounts of damage so don't discount them.

    (blasters do their damage from far and don't have defense,
    stalkers go in, and have defense, can't be held and will mitigate damage they recieve. my regen can scrap it out with 6 equal lvl villains or 3-4 +1s without even clicking IH and that's not counting what i can AS)

  20. Greetings All,

    I have taken two pictures in-game of where he can be located in Kings Row, along with "IanTheM1" I hope these help you find the construction site. You must have patients, as well as once you find the site, it takes about 10-15 mins depending on the level you are to beat this. I am level 25, and I was joined with a controller, and it took us about that long to get the badge. We later on found that letting one build up, gave you 5000 exp - have fun and take care!
