Those are some FABULOUS known issues, there.

I think I'll hold off on getting it till those are fixed. :|

I think the issue may be that the temp powers will only go into a given tray once. Also, they're copies, not charges, so whenever you use the power, it disappears from all trays and if you have more than one you have to dig through your temps.

Solution? Macros!

I do agree that it should be more visible who DOES have the temps in any case, mostly to discourage griefers.

As Trem said upthread, Posthaste runs MS raids the first sunday of every month. They are epic. They are fun. If you listen, there is good music.

Some more info!

Sometimes they're themed. Don't be surprised if you see people in raiderhosen, or with bunny ears and tails. It's all in good fun, and a large portion of the regular participants RP during the raid.

They're every first Sunday of the month, 6p-9p Eastern time, three raids back to back to back, usually lasting 45 minutes to an hour each, with 5-10 minute breaks in between each raid. They always start in the highest numbered RWZ as of roughly 5:50p Eastern on the day of the raid.

We are fully capable of taking over the zone, so showing up early is better than showing up late.

I can't wait to see a raid done with a league UI. It'll make getting teams together a lot easier, that's for sure.

And Shimmer-Strike is a pretty good friend of mine as well, dunno bout his raids though, he always seems to throw them when I'm neck-deep in RP or something.

I for some reason have three redeemable character slots. I am very confused. I haven't tried using any of these alleged slots, but there they are.

Dechs, dear, I can't tell if this is an april fool's troll or not. Considering I've heard you go "pfeh, inspirations? Don't need em!" previously...

Inspirations are beautiful. Sometimes I use my whole tray just cause it's getting full. They do rain from the sky, after all.

Delicious, isn't it.

Same problem.

Flawed "security" system, and a total pain in the rear.

On that note, I'm the shrimp front and center, in the blue and white with the orange hair and glasses, and NeggyZ is newspaper guy.

On my ITF on Wednesday, we were taking bets on who would die first:

1. Me, the elec/energy blaster slotted for obscene damage who uses Rise of the Phoenix as part of her attack chain,
2. The SS/WP brute who often says things in character like, "Welp, didn't really need that kidney anyway..."
3. The Warshade who plays as recklessly as me, "Yuuusss, mires..."

We're all ridiculously reckless. We all have a habit of soloing groups meant for 8. The winner? The brute. Faceplanted while I was still outside the mission, due to hitting his damage cap. Thanks to the kin. That team was AWESOME.

I make my low HP into a weapon of mass destruction, folks, don't mind the blasterlock. If someone pulls me out and rezzes me before I explode, I usually go into a few minutes of spluttering anger.

Then I go kill myself again and unleash the fiery death on my foes and feel better.

Hoyoo! I was there and it was mad fun! *Is the player behind Elosia*

Four Warshades. Four Peacebringers. Two hours.

Ninety-nine deaths.

100% awesome.

Got some GREAT screenshots, will be posting soon.

So.

Freaking.

Cool.

Earlier this morning I was gleeing about a different sort of future-is-now thing, and this just got me going again.

Would I play a game based on the concept? Fyeah. Would I play CoX as a workout using gesture control? Also fyeah.

This is amazing.

Blasters are bloody fun. I have three of em, including my sole 50. I'm used to being the glass cannon, I tend to pick classes/ATs that fit that no matter where I go.

Yeah, the game gets harder at 30ish, but I typically find it's sort of a bump and things get easier again post-35 or so, between the tier 8s and 9s, gaining an epic pool, and starting to slot (nice) sets.

Yeah, blasters are squishy. And we do a lot of damage. And if you play right, we're devastating. Ever ran in, nuked, died, and popped Rise of the Phoenix? It's fun. I sometimes swear at people who try to rez me before I get RotP off. I've had people call me an exploding vengeance monkey. And that's just on my 50, where I've turned my lower HP into a weapon of mass destruction. I'm full-throttle reckless anywhere above 42 on her, but dial it back a bit when I lose that power. Strategy. It's just one way of playing, and is actually viable on a high-level blaster.

Roll one, try it out. Debt is temporary. You'll undoubtably spend some time facedown learning the AT, but who doesn't? If you're a smart player, you'll find ways to minimize that without shortchanging your damage.

For reference, my blasters are elec/energy (50), dp/energy (38), and energy/fire (35). I'm comparatively new to the game and have crippling altitis, but of all the ATs, blaster is probably still my favorite.

Hah. I have this problem with Patroller and Monitor duty on several characters, and they're all heroes who haven't done any tips.

I /petitioned it, got a response that my ticket was escalated, then a canned response... my correspondence with the GMs has been generally polite and cheerful, but apparently I have to wait until they patch it to actually get my accolade. XP that annoys me, for I want my base teleporter on these guys!

Maybe I should post in that thread syrusb linked...

Sigh. Rather than start up a new thread I guess I'll post here again.

Attempt #11 on my first try... attempt #18 now. I haven't screwed with any firewall settings or the like, this just started happening after the 8-24 patch.

I would really love to be able to play. ._.;

/signed

It's up to attempt 13 or so now.

This sounds like fun!

I may have to get in on it.

Whether on my Widow or on a vigilante, I dunno.

But count me in!

THANK you Mondo.


And yeah Quinch, I know about getglobalname and getlocalname.

I've tried using chat logs in the past but I can never find where it saves to. Just like I can't find costume or critter files.

Most likely has to do with the way the wrapper works for the mac version of the game. :/

Hello Virtue!

A few weeks ago, I had an RP encounter in the D with a sentient virus by the name of Dekan, but I forget both the specific character name and never got your global.

I'd like to bounce some ideas off you for some more RP, and an AE arc, but I need more information.

If you're out there, Dekan, PM me or send a tell/email to me...or if anyone knows who that fellow was!

Cheers!

You're a linguist? That explains the insight of your post! ^^;

This thread needs a linguist!

Me, I've been saying it "pray-TOH-ree-ah". I wish I had the linguistics terms to describe it. "ae" is always a long A to me... I'm in the category of "speaking romance languages" (French) and "singing classical music".

*boggles*

Something I notice quite frequently with monstrous legs and feet... The crouch emote makes the legs clip like crazy.

Especially annoying, since characters who use monstrous legs and feet are exactly the type to be /e crouch'ing.

Some examples!

Female body, most sliders and height all the way to the left.



The shins go through the thighs. D:



Male body, all thin and skinny, still tall, fairly long legs.



Not quite as bad, but it still looks really really strange...

Is there any way to fix this at all?

Slightly late...

But HAPPY BIRTHDAY to an awesome dev!

I think we scared him off...
