It's not. One more layer of "playing a way that only a miniscule portion of the player base wants to" is the issue. The rest is "griefing". Not spam.

And maybe if you leave Atlas every once in a while, you won't GET "lfae" broadcasts...

So, even if the Footstomp animation goes off the same, the gentle sound of chimes would be acceptable? o.0

If this were a single-player fps game, this whole idea might work better. As it is, no.

Because this is not how the costume pieces are made. That would never be put into the game because it would introduce bugs like crazy, clipping issues to say the very least, and simply put, not look good at all.

Costume pieces are extensively tested before going live and only after hearing the tremendously unending cries of "BUT WE WANT IT NOW!" has Sexy Jay and the other devs put things in the game that clip heavily (the Valk wings for instance, and the Witch objects from the magic pack). Normally, things were not allowed *at all* that would clip from one body build to another. So... introducing something that would have to run ... where? Client side? Server side? How could this 'random' button even be put into a game that's live with multiple thousands of players? So... no.

Scrappers get pool powers at level 41 that allow them ranged, and there are temp powers, vetran rewards and the like, that allow any character regardless of AT different abilities.

Everyone plays differently. If you didn't take the 3 or however many melee powers from your secondary Energy set way earlier than level 38, that's your business. I take mine the moment they're available. That is to say, before level 10.

Just because they say they want something, doesn't mean it's feasable or balanced for the game. It was already said HELL NO that certain AT's would not get certain things - but some of those were re-balanced and ported with proliferation later on. They aren't the SAME versions, but they exist.

Says you. You've never even bothered to TRY playing a "blapper" - I've played some, and been on teams with others. They're more than possible, they're lots and lots of fun.

Um.... have you just never learned how to slot your enhancements? With IO sets now, we've got TONS of ways to make every single powerset in this game more flexible, more powerful, and more useful for EVERYONE. This includes those great melee things you keep dissing in favor of 'blasters must be at range'. We're not always at range with opponents. Gotta get past that "holy trinity" (healer/tank/damage dealer) ideal.

And? if you're playing a blaster, you're guaranteed to be a damage dealer.

Wait... didn;t you just indicate above that you wanted this? I don't think you're being very clear here.

probably not. Would the animation take into account the size/type/description of your weaponry in your costume? What about when you've got different ones for each slot? Remember we're getting way more customization with I16.


and.... this game is well over 2 gigs. What's your point? The collision cylinders in this game are very different from those single-player fps games you seem to try and want it to be. This isn't one of those and can't act like it is. The entire engine is different than you kinda seem to like. Also remember, this game has to run on everyone's computer, and over many different bandwidth carrying lines. One person's emote might mean another's lag.

lol, Troof there.

Sometimes the login server is messed up, while the servers themselves are just fine. That does happen regularly.

however, note well that the Test server is up for Closed Beta on I16 right now, so you may or may not be allowed to get in that at all. But yeah, the server page is ... in its own dreamy little world.

His battle cry is "No Plumping!"
And I also plan on giving him a "chickie" version, a teeny tiny yellow chickey

Even with the big "Pay with Token" tab?! Dude. Glasses.

..... You have to be joking, right? >_< RIGHT?

Wish this was on a non-eu server, but it sounds fun I wonder if there's ever been more than 1 instance of Outbreak...

No. Never.

No, it would not. It would only make pvp more available for people who already like it, at that level.

Nothing needs to be changed right now. At any level, you can head to an Arena, and fight.

Never, in a million damn years will the devs make you HAVE to do anything like that. That's why the pvp zones are *optional* for everyone. Period.

People who like pvp already, I'm sure, would find this opportunity to gank enemies in a zone outside their normal activities to their liking.

Most if not all of the rest, would certainly not like it at all. Once more it brings the forced pvp into play - I don't want to do that, so you're saying I *cannot* reach a certain zone? What exactly am I paying for in this game? Oh yeah - to play the game on the servers they provide. I give them money, they let me play where I want to be playing.

So no. Bad idea all around.

Bringing PVP to people it's not already being used by is NOT an endearing factor of any idea. Keeping PVP to its own area, and making it optional IS endearing. It keeps people like me who DO like to have gladiator matches and will pvp in the arena with friends, interested just enough for there to be a system in place. Anything more than that is NOT what I came to this game to do. PVP did not exist until LONG after I started playing, and the fact that it wasn't IN the original game was an attraction point for me. I don't like pvp in general, I don't play "against" other people. I like cooperating with them, not popping a cap in their rear. I don't find it funny, fun or entertaining.

So... no. Keep the pvp zones optional, for those who enjoy them. Do not under any circumstance interrupt anyone else's pve game for the sake of someone's gank count.

This.

Blasters are ranged and melee. You can then take pool powers to flesh out the melee if you really need to.

The problem with mixing certain powersets together - as evidenced by the AE and how people create their npc's - is they are either WAY overpowered, or WAY gimped. Player characters don't need to be either one of those.

Corruptors and Blasters have pretty much all-offense all the time. Melee and ranged.
