Quote:And this. I actually think this splash screen looks worse than the last one. At least he was fighting something. Him standing around looking like he's about to bust out an Elvis move doesn't look like an improvement.Originally Posted by UnicyclePeon
Yeah, I would prefer to be able to change the image to something like the official wallpaper they have with the breaking star.

IMO, YMMV and all that jazz.
EDIT: Actually I prefer the GR and original screens. Wish we could get those back somehow. -

Like one of the other posters said, emp merits are not the most efficient way of getting this. unfortunately the only "efficient" way is afk farming, or constant farming missions in game. That doesn't really seem reasonable. -
Quote:a better change would be to just sell the damn access to Cim via the Paragon Market as an account unlock. done.Originally Posted by Scarlet Shocker
A partial solution would be to get a Midnighter club access as a Vet Reward
I don't think the arc per se is bad, but it's monotonous once you've done it the first 47 times. Once we've done it a few times it would be nice not to have to do it for every toon. It's not like the ITF is skippable content is it?
having speed run both the villain and heroic unlock for Cim till my eyes bleed already, i would not object. -

Yeah, it is really annoying that people doing PuGs get 8 people and then join the queue.
Why not just join the queue?
number of people in queue would be helpful
Yes, I know, chicken and the egg.

Yes the engine would be better and graphics would be, but I doubt they'd be doing away with things like travel suppression. -
Quote:Ahhh. Yeah a quick patch should clear those up . . . should, lolOriginally Posted by I Burnt The Toast
**STARRING** the ones I hope get fixed SOON!
Badges New!
Bloody Bay: The Brotherly Love badge is not awarding correctly to players who defeat 2 Shivan Obliterators within 30 seconds of each other.
****LFG Tab Crash New! ****
Opening the LFG tab on a character with less mission options after displaying the LFG tab on a character with more options will cause a client crash.
This crash can be avoided by quitting to desktop and restarting the client when switching to a character with less options if you use the LFG tab for both.
Switching from a character with less options to a character with more options should not cause a similar crash.
This crash may also occur without switching characters when opening LFG after changing your alignment to Villain.
Incarnate Trials New!
Minds of Madness and TPN Network Incarnate Trials have their earned iXP displayed incorrectly in the LFG description.
TPN Campus states that players will earn Alpha, Judgement, and Lore XP in the trial, however Interface and and Destiny XP are granted.
Minds of Mayhem states that it grants Alpha, Interface, and Destiny XP, but Judgement and Lore XP are earned in the trial.
TPN Campus: The Left Pistol does not unlock for female thugs masterminds when crafting the Maelstrom Pistol recipe.
Stalkers New!
For power sets that use weapons, Assassin's Strike will not animate if used out of hide if weapons are not yet drawn.
Dark Melee New!
Assassin's Strike does not animate after using Build-up.
****Darkness Affinity New!****
Fade: This power's benefits are currently only affecting the caster.
Dominator New!
Ice Control/Block of Ice: This power is not accepting the Ascendency of the Dominator ATO set.
Tanker New!
Might of the Tanker: Recharge/Chance for +Res(All) and Superior Might of the Tanker: Recharge/Chance for +Res(All) are not currently slottable into Electric Armor/Lightning Field, Fiery Aura/Blazing Aura, Ice Armor/Icicles, Stone Armor/Mud Pots and Dark Armor/Death Shroud.
Mission Architect
Editing a contact/boss/villain group's name in Mission Architect while "Show Save Path" is active will cause a client crash. -
Quote:+1, good overviewOriginally Posted by Johnny_Butane
I don't think Valve is/was being quite realistic with thinking they could be the universal distributor for online publishing, especially since they can't or won't pony up the hardware required for something like that.
Just the other week, downloading the the demo for ME3 was done lickity-fast on Origin compared to what it would have taken on Steam, simply because it wasn't bogged down with people stealing bandwidth for other games.
Valve has made some...questionable decisions in the past few years. They're no longer the 'cool up and comer' anymore and as far as I'm concerned, they burned up a good amount of the gaming community's good will and support. I wonder if they even make games anymore or simply buy up small productions like L4D and Portal and regurgitate with a decent coat of paint at minimal cost, because they've certainly not been releasing Episode 3.
Still, when EA walked away from Steam, well it was easy to side with Valve, but now that others are doing it, it's clear there's been a shift. So far, Valve's response has been to stick its fingers it it's ears, chant 'la la la!' and pretend nothing's happening. Or, they've been chasing rainbows like their "Steam Boxes". Yeah, I'm sure it'll be a smash just like the Phantom.
Valve championed online distribution, the big guys scoffed at it, but it took off big time. Then Valve made them bend over and took a cut of their profits. Now they're going to get some serious competition from those same big guys and Valve wont be able to coast anymore with their hand in the cookie jar. So what happens next will be very interesting.

Quote:It's a new type of item that can be used to convert an enhancement into another based on random chance. So you could take a trash purple IO and try to convert into a 600 mil to billion seller.Originally Posted by UnicyclePeon
Btw, what are the converters that are referred to in the title? Are they the same as the ATIO enhancement catalysts? Do you buy them? Is it something else?

That's the short version. It's a bit more complicated than that.

Maybe I don't. Maybe it's been my villains dream/mission from the beginning to do exactly what Wade is doing? Maybe my character was a servant of Rularuu from the beginning before these Rulu-shin cultists popped up on the radar.

Agreed. And I largely never cared because I never thought it was worth the effort.
I now suggest it should happen, because I think it would be worth the effort.
If more missions were out in the open that would be a different story.
Just my opinion

Quote:this!Originally Posted by hopeling
if somebody offered to sell you that 1.5b item for 100 million off-market, would you make that trade? Would it be unethical or "not nice" to do so? And if not, why is it ok to buy something below the going rate but not ok to sell something above it, as long as both parties agree on the price?
Plus, you have yet to demonstrate that this is actually happening to anyone, anywhere. I haven't seen anyone selling glad armor uniques in freedom help chat for the last few weeks, (and if anyone tried, i suspect they'd be shouted down by people who are aware of the coming changes), other than one known scammer, and he's not really selling anything anyway. I find it difficult to believe that someone has more than 2b to spend on such items, but has not bothered to check the market for them (where they are guaranteed to get the item for 2b or less) at any point in the last few weeks. -
Quote:/facepalmOriginally Posted by graystar_blaster
I realized that you think bad of people that are rich. But being angry at me for trying to protect off market buyers your anger is misplaced. As well as I earned that stuff. I at one time played this game way to much while recovering from an injury(severe too). So how I got rich is irrelevant what is relevant is that your from what i read a little jealous and skeptical of my intentions.
But this comment:
"The sheer stupidity of a "one-percenter" ranting and wailing about the other "one-percenters" is sort of hysterical. What's the real issue here? "I got mine, but damned if you should get yours?"
is putting the pain and suffering of the real world people that are the 99%ers and their cause into a video game. Your using bad logic and a somewhat flawed comparison to my super hero video game where i fight giant rocks and thorn bushes.
But if you want to please continue to rail against one of the few that are actually putting this out there.
So if you have something to say constructive I would love to hear it. I suspect its probably trivial and thats why even in a video game your 99%
anyone who wants to pay 3 bill for IO (or more) can. It's there inf. You don't have any business whatsoever in that transaction. -
Quote:I think all our experiences are irrelevant. If the data shows that they are harder to solo the Devs will adjust that. Just like they did last time. There were people screaming bloody murder on the forums that blasters didn't need adjustment, and that didn't matter when they made the changes they did. There are also people saying stalkers didn't need that much. Also irrelevant as Stalkers are about to get a major buff come issue 22.Originally Posted by Chyll
In your experience. Others have offered their own experience to the contrary.
I think it's more time-use effective to put forth ideas that the devs could use to improve blasters, as to avoid having to do this all over again in 2 years if they don't get the next buff right . . . if they decide that blasters need buffs.
EDIT: Also tired of seeing all the discussion of how top IO'd builds let you do this or that. I think THAT is particularly irrelevant in a game where the devs keep saying "SOs are not needed at all." Also keep in mind this is NOW a game where a significant number of players MIGHT NOT HAVE access to IOs OR the Incarnate buffs. Just saying.
IOs should not be completely ignored when thinking of balance, but it's NOT the BASELINE of balance. Talking about soloing +4/x8 with a 10 billion inf build is great, but it always starts at "what can this AT do with just SOs" first. -

Well I gotta give it to you mang I was trying to find the cheat in the build but could not(you know like veng active or something similar) That's some build you have there even if you can't post it cause you didn't use mids.)
That's a damn good build.
*impressed*
What's even more impressive is that you did it without ever firing up a build planner. I can do that too NOW, but it took me literally years of using mids before i could. *even more impressed*

Perma dom at that level pretty much means my dom is facing statues most of the time.

True. As much of a fan of this game as I am, playing for nearly 8 years straight, I have never played any ME games and if I had the money I would be playing SFxT over issue 22.

This was funny?
Apparently I have a very high standard of humor compared to everyone else. -
Yeah I don't get why this costume piece hasn't been done already.
I also don't get how no one could see that porting it only to females when it's been asked for, for years, would be not well received.
Really confused. -
Quote:Build a NEW, third Co-OP only oroborus that is activated when on a mixed team and you drop the O-portal. The misison arc is the only one runnable while folks are on the mixed team. That Oroborus is also the only one accessible while everyone is on the mixed team. The "contact" will be the crystal directly available across from the entrance portal (the one in front of the pool). You can't call the contact, you can only zone into the Co-Op o portal to continue the arc with your mixed team. The contact next to the crystal will only buy and sell insp, and is the only contact that can be clicked on in the temporary mixed team o-zone.. While on the mixed team your O-portal Will ALWAYS take you (and team mates)into the mixed o-zone. It has no timer and is 0 recharge unlike the original o-portals.Originally Posted by TrueGentleman
Functionality is a good thing, in the first place. In the second, Ouro is now technically broken since it no longer works as well as it did now that side-switching and incarnates are part of the game. And in the third, reducing this to an either-or proposition is a poor method of business planning. The devs have let us know that they work several issues in advance, so fitting in a renovation for Ouro into the long term plans shouldn't automatically preclude releasing new content. Besides, as I said, renovating old content can also provide the opportunity for unexpected directions for the new.
Certainly, and that would factor into the scheduling. If it were simple (and it's not, from what the devs are telling us), then it would be easy to slot in sooner rather than later. Since it will have to be later - and it's already almost a year and a half after Going Rogue's launch - then figure out if it should be Issue 24 or 26 or 30, etc.
Otherwise, Ouro is just another example of CoH legacy code no longer working quite as it should but well enough for the devs to ignore, despite players' requests for revision.
The travel list back out will list all the appropriate zones everyone has access to. Villains and rogues can only go to zones they have access to. Heroes and Vigs can only go to zones they have access to. The badge that grants access to the original o-portals will NOT existence in this mixed o-zone, in order to avoid an possible bugs.
No need to copy contacts over, no need to copy over missions, no need to deal with spaghetti code. Once everyone disbands (and everyone MUST quit team until there is no team for access to the original o-zones to return) everyone gets access back to their original O-zone portal and abilities back.
Profit.
