Snow Globe

Do you honestly think they could give a rat's behind about feedback these days?

I'm getting the impression that they are happier getting complaints about their content these days than getting compliments about it.

Well, you shoot big time pool, right? I mean, that's what everybody says: you shoot big time pool. Let's make it an Armageddon a game.



If I am a winner, I permit NC Interactive, Inc. and NCsoft Europe Limited to use my name, likeness, photograph, hometown, and any comments that I may make about myself or this contest that I provide for advertising and promotional activities. I also certify that I am at least 13 years of age and am eligible to participate in this contest.

The entire folder, complete with logs/screenshots/player folders. I even tried again after I purged the NClauncher's download folder and the registry entries relating to cohbeta.

My main drive is usually at 75% full, so I put select games like CoH on my SSD or my 2TB drive (depends on if I play them a lot).

I'd try doing this again, but my ISP has a monthly transfer cap which I don't want to bang my head against. It is working now that the beta is being updated.

Well, I agree that it -should- have... It didn't, but it should have. It still downloaded stage one, then stage two and three once I started it.

The last time I tried that with the NClauncher, the stupid program STILL wanted to download the WHOLE program directory.

Please don't edit out your question, others might have the same question and now can't find a similar question answered.

Ahem:
As you can see, it isn't slow solo. There is a spot with 12 Roman targets, and you can have more solo if you have pets.

If you are bringing a 2nd account, bring a mastermind to get 7 more targets with each account that has MM access (I was getting around 9,000 per two minutes). If you're not soloing, then you could get a bunch of MMs with pets and really boost the numbers. With that one MM that is just under 48 hours to get to 10 million.

Also the targets got badge progress for the damage taken badges.

The arena farms can't match that.

Oh, and using the above numbers:
354.8 * 12 targets = 4,257.6 HP healed per 2 minutes.
10 Million HP / 4,257.6 = approximately 2,349 applications.
2,349 applications * 2 minutes = 4,698 minutes.
4,698 minutes / 60 = 78.3 hours or less than 3.5 days.

And the numbers get better with the T4 power.

Those are the definitive conditions.

For a while I debated on starting the following rumors:

• That you had to to jump on both the hydras in 100 DFB trials to get the "Head of the Hydra badge".
• That you had to do 200 DFB trials to get the "Sewer King" badge.
• That you had to do 50 DFB trials to get the "Sewer Stalker" badge.
• That you had to level 1-50 in the DFB Trial for the "Sewer Dweller" badge.
• That you had to get all the badges in DFB and have no one die for the Master Plumber badge.
• That you had to lead 20 DFB trials for the Apprentice Plumber badge.

Then I thought I really shouldn't give them more reasons for doing the trial.

And I'm telling you that isn't always the case.

It isn't. Test it yourself.

You can't solo an arena match. You have to have at least 2 players in it.

And I should have said that it took me a week because I had to do it in 3 hour intervals (something was up and I crashed every 3 hours).

GMs and AVs are two different things. A zone GM isn't the same critter as a mission version of that monster downgraded to an EB.

Neither Echoes on Beta are available in the Villain Ouroborus zone.

Yes.

On a level 46, I got 850 xp with a hero/vigilante getting a series of explore badges.
On a level 47, I got 900 xp with a vigilante getting Grandville explore badges.

I've noticed some oddities with the explore badges xp/inf. Sometimes villains get less than heroes for the same level. At least that is what I found in the past.

Also, did you check that with the "no XP, 2x Inf" option on the 50?

There was a slight bit of that too. However, in other circumstances, I still would have kicked a player for using that power. The only use I see for that power is as a developer sanctioned griefing tool, nothing more.

Given that it was an open league but I had 4 other players on Skype (and had a bunch more not on it that would have followed my lead) at the time, I could easily get the vote-kick ratified.

If you had sent me a tell before changing to Incandescence, I would have politely told you not to.

I'm sorry you felt that way, but I'm not sorry for giving the clear warning of what would happen if you used it. I promise you, I would have followed through.

Given that the MoM trial I did right after where players ignored instructions (I wasn't leader for it) failed because instructions were not followed, I feel a clear warning was better than what happened on the later trial. I don't think I asked for much for the the TPN trial in question.

I'm thankful that you did stay. I am also thankful that you respected my instructions enough to not use that power. From my perspective, someone was announcing at the last minute that they were going to use a power that could very likely cause the trial to fail would cause me to be more direct than usual.

Any time you want to discuss it, let me know. I have Skype, Teamspeak, Ventrillo, or you can talk to me in game.

Edit:
or feel free to PM me on these forums.

To be honest, at the time I wasn't even thinking about tracking down an option so that I could tell the league how to turn the prompt on. A lot of people don't know where to find it and I didn't want to waste time helping them find it. As it was someone was killing cameras and another player was using AoEs before we went into the main building for the first time.

Given that I was the league leader in question...

In game:
Given that I was juggling tells, announcing the trial on global channels, and barely keeping up with questions about how to actually do the trial. I didn't see your request about Incandescence. Sorry.

Heck, I didn't even want to lead the trial, and many of the posters in this thread know why from my past posting history.
And that is when I guessed you planned to use it.
And you said that as the league was mid-queue and no one would have had a chance to change their TP prompt settings at the Gull. (edit: ok, players could have changed their options as well.)

And that was your warning not to use the power when I'm leading.

Throughout the trial less than four players out of twenty-four couldn't keep up. At least 6 players (including myself) were inside the buildings doing critical tasks before most players got to the main room. Several players, including myself had recall friend (I know, because I know the other characters' powers due to frequent teaming).

There were only two players that I would trust with that power last night. Myself and one other person (who actually beat everyone to the main rooms of the trial), we were both in voice communication. Incandescence introduces an unexpected and completely unwanted factor when I'm trying to stay ahead of both the game and the league to anticipate problems. Additionally, as an Illusionist, I'm pet heavy and have a lot of ground targeted powers so having a TP prompt in my face just gets me ticked off.

And wrecks any plans I may have or might make mid-trial.

No, and he didn't ask me after the trial was over either.

What you sent didn't seem to invite a response:
You didn't ask me why after the trial was over, either.

Given that:

• I joined the league about 20 minutes earlier.
• I was discussing strategy for the trial for most of that.
• I didn't want to lead the league in the first place.
• You announced that you were going to use it less than 30 seconds before we zoned into the trial (we had to wait for the last few to accept).
• I was sending the league reminders throughout the trial.
• I was trying to make sure the trial went off successfully.
• The trial was successful.

I think that not responding to a comment that wasn't -asking- why is completely understandable. If you had asked why, I would have asked you to wait until after the trial was finished and I would have told you my reasons for the warning.

It was a warning. Beyond that if you have a problem with a warning or any trial strategy I use and want to discuss the warning after a trial, I'm more than happy to do so when I'm not under a time constraint.

I threatened to kick if he used it, not for asking to use it. So it was (B), and not your final sentence.
