Um... Role players aren't the problem here. At all. I don't know what planet you're from, but on the one that I play City of Heroes on, using the "rpers are ruining my farming" excuse is pretty stupid.

Oh, I agree, but it's just as assinine as claiming that "farmers are ruining my rp."

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, I will agree there, but it's been a very confusing argument so far lol.

Sploiters are ruining all of our game, not farmers, nor even powerlevelers.

It's like in other games, where it's more or less essential to have a character in a guild doing all the tailoring or whatever mundane task required to put money in the coffer. Someone does it very well, that's great.

Then someone else finds a way to dupe rares, or whatever, and suddenly the economy of the game is out of whack, and unfortunately there's rarely a way to take one specific thing that's being abused out without affecting a good amount of the surrounding program. Yes, it's a little like cutting an arm off to stop the frostbite on the fingertip, but unfortunately it's easier to do that than it is to convince even one hacker or lazy exploiter to stop what they're doing.

U suk, not enuf farming, 2 much 2 read.


>_< how's that?

You'll be making good use of the side-switching feature, won't you.

I think we should just gossip among ourselves about any decisions being made.



Ooooh wait.

I thought it was the cloning chambers and Crey letting them out...

Well yeah, I do tend to be a bit loud.

But you know how much I add "hehehe" to things in chat?

I do that in real life too.

Come baaaack to us.

Well they're not KILLED.... they're arrested and sent to the zig's auto-rez system... duh.

>_>

hehehe arrest.

That isn't the question. The question is do they have the implied right to dictate how the game is to be played.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, they do. They developed it, and the eula specifically states our rights.

Do they have the moral authority to play bait and switch games with their customers.

[/ QUOTE ]

"Bait and switch?" Where? Define it, show me where they're telling us we're getting one thing specifically and then where in the game it's not happening and is in fact something else? I think you're not using the right term, but whatever you're thinking, I suspect you don't know the first thing about it...

They may be able to for at least a little while, but to borrow from Lincoln "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time."

But who is foolish when they simply break the rules that are stated? The rules aren't there to hinder your playing - they're there to make the game FUN for AS MANY AS POSSIBLE.

So if a few people start screwing it up for the rest of us, you better believe those people are the ones going to get the smackdown.

I thought we were getting bonuses for sitting around... logging out and getting easy xp - gosh, in locations where RP is common!

*shakes head* I don't know quite what is wrong with another_fan but I hope it isn't contagious.

Yeah I totally giggle whenever I see those.

We HAVE it. Now whether you LIKE what we have or not is your own perogative. To say that we DON'T HAVE end game content is just plain silly. I'm counting hours and hours worth of content there, possibly days or month's worth.

You play on protector, just how often do those Hamidon raids or shadow shard TFs happen there ?

[/ QUOTE ]

We're doing the Quarterfield TF tomorrow - possibly even two teams worth.

We just did a rikti raid - weekly as always for the last year or more - the other day.

Protector was first among the servers to do a lot of things, where have YOU been?

The only people who NEED to know the "law" in this case are the Devs and the GMs.

People who exploit and farm those exploits *know that they are doing so*. It's not an accident. They are the ones who will and have been smacked down for it - they are breaking the rules which have been stated.

Farming itself is NOT the issue. Exploiting something IS. Exploiting in order to powerlevel past the game in light-speed fashion IS against the devs' wishes.

And believe it or not: we do not have the right to dictate what they want us to do. Period. Our fifteen bucks a month allows us access to THEIR game, THEIR program, THEIR hardware space and THEIR bandwidth. It allows us to bicker here on the forums. But it doesn't give us stock in the company, and it doesn't give us a vote because this ain't a democracy. We have to play by their rules - period. If you don't want to know what the rules are, it doesn't mean the rules aren't still there and being enforced.

>_> ALL the badge-hunters I know are very, very active, very social, group oriented folks. Just saying.

Yup there are plenty of little gems in the load screens. They've added a bunch of MA tips, links to the wiki and forum info, and FREEM.

Not a surprise that this post has also already been notified.

I know a lot of cops.

They're obviously not the ones you might be thinking of. They're intelligent, kind, well trained, sensible and most of all loyal to the idea that they're here to protect the innocent. They're good men and women, and I don't like you insulting them because you might have some twisted idea of what being a police officer is all about. Good riddance to your posts.

Nope.

I have itunes when I don't want to be listening to the ingame music. Putting anything into a game also requires licencing. That would increase the monthly fees, and open all manner of a mess of worms legally.

It might be nice to see a new set, a courtroom setting with everything that goes with it.

However, the "OBJECTION!" jokes would just be overwhelming. Perhaps this may be something that might come up in the next expansion, "put on trial" could lead to changing sides (either direction - reforming or going bad), but I don't know how you'd actually make it interactive. We basically get to hit stuff in this game.

Hitting stuff in a courtroom is generally frowned upon...

Why would it?

It's got a stable player base, it's got devs that actually enjoy their job, and are hiring more and more people to implement whatever new things they have in the future.

The powers and costume appearances in this game are far better than those in CO. If you like em, when it comes out, have at. I for one don't like them one whit, and can't stand to watch the videos because the garishness just ... bleah.

Just because another game is coming out, is not a reason to start upping the ante on this one in ways that the general populace seems to be okay with as is.

That would definitely be an improvement, though getting people to use them for information - even though or perhaps in spite of the fact that they say INFO TERMINAL on them... because you know.

No one wants to read that.

>_>

lolwhat?

Things are conspiring against me getting my scrapper to 40, but I'm still trying. If not, I dunno - I have 3 fifties, all equally able to attend/participate. (my nvidia drivers kind of went belly up yesterday, and I managed to get on in time to complete a timed mission and then as I'm clearing the very short map, failed again. ... I had to figure out how to download the damn drivers, got one corrupted file first, and then had to do it again, so I hope they work now...)

You do know that paragonwiki's advertised in the load screens right?

But I suppose that to people who don't want to read stuff won't read THOSE either, even though there's nothing else to do while the screen's loading.
