Quote:I would prefer if they were static and could choose from existing NPCs (minus the legendary ones, i.e., Miss Liberty, etc). It would make it easier to implement.Originally Posted by Mephistroth
/Signed too.
Even just static NPCs with basic functions like leveling up, tailoring or etc would be a big step. -
/signed, but it'd probably be easier using new art than making them completely customizable using the in game editor. Especially if you intend to have them moving around a base, and not just contained in a mission file. THAT was one of the hurdles that forced them to push AE from i13 to i14.

Just add the difficulty contacts.
That way everyones happy. *shrug*
I actually expect the devs to do this eventually. Currently they are probably datamining the difficult and how long it takes to complete arcs.
That way they can adjust the merit rewards and THEN place in a difficulty slider. -
Quote:LoTGs were always in the 200 M+ range, didn't matter the level. So that's a good thing.Originally Posted by Kitteh
One of those --can't remember which-- was going for 190-200M just before the weekend.

EPIC! And soooo /signed.

Me thinks they forgot to adjust the rewards BEFORE moving stuff LIVE.

Quote:Oh I should have explained.Originally Posted by Vanden
What is this, backwards day? The "RP argument" is that people won't want to do villainous things to get their heroes Patron pools. How does that become compromised if the patron pools aren't necessarily evil?
I meant that RP really doesn't matter, since you can RP the powers to be for any purpose.
EDIT: Was taking that statement for MY OWN purposes.

Task Force, eh? No thanks.

There's nothing inherently evil about the powers themselves. Yes, even Soul Mastery.
The RP argument doesn't hold much water
EDIT: I would be FINE with them adding Heroic PPPs. To balance out both sides. Other than that the current situation is fine as is. -
While everyone is mostly 1-20ing it away in Prae, it's gonna be a while before folks are high enough to start wanting IOs again.

Quote:Funny, I haven't noticed any pvp buffs lately.Originally Posted by Another_Fan
Pot meet kettle ?
There really is no fun in making fanbois look silly. They were there first and usually do a much better job than anyone else can. I mean look in this thread you have people posting pictures of one days load to say "LOOK WE HAVE POPULATION THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS". You can't mock that more than it mocks itself.
As to the rest I'd really rather not see city of heroes go. It has a few features that I really enjoy, excellent movement , the world as a three space that really works for me, no invisible walls that make no sense and destroy any sense of immersion you might have had. It's more than a little annoying to see the game perpetually amplify its weaknesses and play down its strengths. Some of that seems to stem from fitting the game play to the analysis tools they have handy.

Freedom is gray, Virtue is red, Liberty, Infinity, Champion and Justice are yellow - just in case anyone was wondering

As long as it doesn't take time/resources/people away from other things and is optional, fine.

Quote:Right, except for the part where Ransim forgets to mention that the trails are barely if ever run.Originally Posted by Nitra
I agree with this 100%, well stated Ransim....

Quote:I would put it more like stupendously, sooooooooo low on the priority list, that's it near china.Originally Posted by WildClaw
Not to say that this can't happen. Afterall, there have been lots of 'impossible' things that have been/are being done right now, but while I'd love WildClaw to have a big industrial-looking diesel turbine motorcycle available for RP and immersion purposes; I would put this as a relatively low priority compared to increased customability of existing powers, more powerset proliferations, and moving the storylines forward.
/unsigned to the OP's suggestion. -

We were promised that the devs would not be using their resources to change those long blueside arcs, yet they stabbed us in the back yet again.
Until you do you are just an ineffective trolling liar. -

Put me down for alternate animations for the entire Dual Pistols set.
I love the Gun-Fu look, but if your character concept is more 'Wild West' or 'Pulp action' inspired, then it doesn't exactly fit. -
I like it.
Now let's see how they handle this Batman, Inc. business. -

Quote:Yes but a while back he mentioned that he was FINE with the drop rate on pvp IOs, and since I13 pvp is generally recognized as his baby, he DOES have a RATHER LARGE bit of control over that aspect of the game.Originally Posted by Rodion
Isn't Castle the powers guy? Isn't someone else responsible for drop rates?
Not that it really matters, but it doesn't seem right to dis a guy for something he's not responsible for, since he genuinely seems to always want to do the right thing. -

Ten minutes of marketing isn't work. The hour or two of reading required to learn how to marketeer well... that's where the work comes in.

Quote:I don't know how you could really make them team friendly aside from either giving them buffs or AOE. Two options that I don't think are all that realistic.Originally Posted by Civility
Honestly I feel the epitome of what a stalker should be like is executed well in the VEATs. The Bane/Nightwidow specializations are stealthy, deal impressive ST damage, have a nice opening burst via Slash/Shatter and contribute to team AoE with Spin-Dartburst/Crowd Control.
While I know they're somewhat specialized in their role and designed to be more team friendly, that's kinda what we want and need for stalkers. They just aren't team friendly, and there is really no reason to not take a Brute/Scrapper over them at any given time.
I think the more realistic suggestions are things that move them away from being like other ATs. -
Quote:This doesn't concern me. Especially not since we already know you'll need GR to experience the Incarnate systems.Originally Posted by Panzerwaffen
I'm a bit concerned about the way that this is apparently going to provide an economic avenue that is only accessible to GR players. Granted, if there is an increase in supply it will still affect market prices in general, and all players will benefit to a certain extent. Still, it seems likely to create some additional conflict between the haves and have-nots.
