Quote:Well, then, you should lobby Congress to change copyright rules so that what you'd like to do is actually legal.Originally Posted by starphoenix
A while ago, we had the discussion of legality about using P2P programs like bittorrent. Some us view it as acceptable, others don't, and some others view only certain aspects of it acceptable. Based on that argument, I thought how long do you think needs to be waited before various media becomes acceptable for obtaining a free electronic copy of it. There is the obvious stipulation that there is no income to be made from the media and it is only for personal use.
My opinion on this issue is that once a movie is available on public television, then it becomes acceptable. Also games and software are acceptable after 5 or more years depending on if a) there is no equivalent product like the King Quest Series DVD being sold or b)the company is no longer making any money on the product. If I wanted to download a copy of Windows 95, then it wouldn't affect Microsoft sales at all. -
See here.
This explains all those extra numbers you see in the Combat Attributes.
It settles once and for all what the flight speed buff did in Issue 18, which is:
Fly, without any enhancements, surpasses the Flight Speed Cap at all levels. -
Arena matches can:
Have no travel suppression
Have Max Recovery if they want
Diminishing Returns or not
Heal Decay or not
Pool or No Pool Powers
Travel Powers or not
Use of Arena Temp Powers or not
Normal Insp/No Insp/Sm Insp only/Med or Sm Insp Only
Choice of Map
Any permutation of level, timing, number of kills, types of teams
So, what is it that PvPers are still waiting for? For Zones to go back to 'normal'? Zones have always been a joke even before The Big Changes simply because there's no control over number of participants which makes 'balance' an impossibility there. -
Quote:Now, see, the problem with that theory is that after the last pylon goes down, Hami's agro range should be suddenly be expanded and start shooting at everyone... but he doesn't. He does nothing until attacked.Originally Posted by Ironblade
What I've heard, and which my personal observations support, is that leaving the pylons up reduces Hami's AGGRO RANGE. He will completely ignore all players as long as they don't get closer than the innermost mitos.

Quote:I seriously doubt that the word in question got excised due to racial slurs but rather a way to get around the other more used R-word by reference to Down's Syndrome.Originally Posted by Master-Blade
Indeed. I was basing my statement on this other source: Mongoloid_race#Criticism
"Today, the term is regarded by some as potentially offensive"
"All the -oid racial terms (e.g. Mongoloid, Caucasoid, Negroid, etc.) are now often controversial in both technical and non-technical contexts and may sometimes give offense no matter how they are used. This is especially true of Mongoloid because it has also been used as a synonym for persons with Down Syndrome. A shortened version of the term.... <insert name here>"
Personally, I would have never made that connection without doing these searches. It's seems kinda silly that the shortened word is censored, but the full word is not.
Anyway, I hope the OP figures out the self-mail system. haha -
Delete the mouse driver and use the default one that Windows uses. That clears up 95% of reported mouse problems.

Quote:Probably derogatory dimunition for the deprecated 'Mongoloid.'Originally Posted by Master-Blade
I think it's also a derogatory term for a Mongolian. That's probably why. It seems you can't even say the word without the "-ian" on it either. lol

It's their purgatory.

Does anybody know if any new, Full-blown Super booster packs are in the works? -

Kann man vielleicht das auch im deutschen Forum mal erwähnen?
Ich finds ja schon, dass es verlängert wurde, nur sollte man das auch ALLEN Spielern mitteilen.
Selbst auf der off. Homepage steht noch bis zum 03. Jan.
Danke
Und jetzt werden wir Hunderte der überraschten deutschen Spieler haben, die auf das Eis fallen! -
I don't know if the pylons have an effect on Hami. Content-wise... they do. They're responsible for Hami being weakened. Whether that translates into a mechanical advantage -- such as causing Hami not to agro on anyone unless attacked -- I don't know.
I do know that the pylons are a convenient tool for targeted-foe powers such as Dark and Kin have. On my Dark, I can TP a fallen teammate to a Pylon and use it to rez them.
As far as leading Rikti into the goo... that's always a Good Idea. Not only do they sometimes kill a mito, but they're absorbing all the mito attacks leaving the team to easily kill the mitos.
On a related topic, the glowy power the team leader gets for killing Hami that's supposed to weaken The Honoree truly does nothing mechanically. Castle said so. People are free to delete the power from their Power List menu and save themselves from going into an epileptic fit from the strobing lights. -
Well, that would be a bug.
Maybe it's counting online time (which it shouldn't). Pick up an AE or Flashback mission or sit in a mission so you don't log off overnight and see if things change. -
I think it was a just a severe case of Arkansas.

Really? I thought we were supposed to get these with I19, albeit a bit late. That's quite a bummer. I was really hoping to get my hands on these soon.
Heck, the IDF didn't even get these costume pieces in time for I19. -
