quick reply: After much effort I finally, at last and about time too got my elec Controller OUT OF PRAETORIA.
I was so glad to get out that I didnt even bother reading all that crap Cole tried to lecture me with as I hit the door for Paragon. "click/click/click, get outta my face" and my troller left all that behind forever.
Lets move on to something truly interesting, such as a portal to the moon or Atlantis OR ANYWHERE I DON'T HAVE TO FACE VANESSA DEVORE + 10 waves of FIVE VANESSA CLONES as a freaking level 19. Yeah, THATS a recipe for me wanting to go back again and again.... NOT -
Quote:My electric armor Tank has his loopholes; a large one of which is named "Cimerora" - despite the best possible slotting I can think up.This sums up my first encounter with her with that particular tanker nicely.
Best moment? When Zombie Man said "I'm not touching that thing. Tanker, you can pull. I'll rez you."
... and meant it.
Anyone else taken by surprise by her first time tanking?
However he had not only Bobcat, but the entire Tin Mage TF for lunch. Sapper-tanks for the win, at least in certain situations. He is also reeeaaaalllllyyyy fond of Rikti. -
Quote:1. The complete removal of the underground, fish-farm Council map from the entire game. I want never to see it again.If you can change three things about this game, what would they be?
I can't say anything yet because I've been playing for only a week so far. But I am very interested with the incoming responses.
2. The addition of a "neckpiece" category to the costume creator, with all neck-style stuff removed from the "shoulders" category and put in there. Also add many new interesting pieces for the neck.
3. Articulated, beautiful hands and fingers. The oven mitts are stupid-looking, not to mention graphically they might as well be from the freaking Stone Age. -
Quote:....A beautiful illustration of my point.Kinda like this?

Just last night my husband showed me a video someone shot on a camera-phone of some welfare mom in Panama City literally tearing apart a Burger King because they were taking too long with her order. At one point she jumped barefoot onto the counter - all the time wearing a blue-and-white bikini, no less, and started throwing everything she could get her hands on and generally tearing the place to pieces. My understanding is that she has been arraigned on felony charges.
People think they can behave like wild animals and do whatever they want these days. While I did make a joke regarding what armor and melee-sets the BK-berserker was sporting, really.... our society is headed for some scary places. -
Quote:This entire incident is so pathetic that really, its not even funny.I had it sprung on me a couple weeks ago and I'm sitting there like a deer in ultra-bright headlights going *HUH?!?!?*
The I looked it up. Pretty pathetic all around. But a funny pathetic.
This young person is not going to do well in life. These kids have parents that let them get away with this type of thing, and then when they become of legal age [notice I didn't say "adults" because kids like this never really grow up], other people won't be enabling this behavior and then it gets really ugly - because the kid in question has no idea how to function in society. The acting-out starts up in earnest and then they enter the state mental health sytem, never to truly emerge.
A child - any child - having a computer in her room is a bad idea. A computer with a webcam: even worse of an idea. In my opinion this child should be in foster-care because her home is completely dysfunctional, her parents have no idea how to handle her and she is not being kept safe by her parents.
I also pity the fool who p*sses off 4chan, because those people are nothing to fool around with. Good luck poppin' a Glock on all of 4chan, lil Jessie. You're gonna need it. And like a kid that age could handle the recoil from such a weapon.... the best we can hope for is that the Glock would end up bouncing off her forehead, thereby perhaps knocking even a smidgen of sense into her immature little skull. ....Naaaaah! Never gonna happen. -
I am so sick and tired of the ITF I could practically scream.
What a delight it was to have Apex and Tin Mage as WTFs instead of this thing. For many level 50s the WTF is the only thing that will drive them out of three ITFs a night, and I for one am grateful. The only thing I dont like are "speed" Apexs and Tin Mages, which makes me laugh because why do we need to "speed" through a 30 minute TF? Seriously.
Apex and Tin Mage are Task Forces Done Right and lets see more like this. I am about sick unto death and beyond of ITF. -
Quote:Really? Many many people, many of them strangers, on my home server reporting that they're getting 3-4 shards per ITF kill all/kill most run - if they're lucky - must just be "random." Good to know!
1. There was no nerf, random is random. Someday the devs will nerf insane conspiracy theories, and I will be joyous.
Good to know I don't need tier 4 for the other stuff. But you know, when about 30 people tell me the same exact thing about shard rate drops - along with what I see for my own alts - I start wondering about the drop rate. Evidently you're getting 15-20 per run so good for you. -
Quote:Heh, that WOULD be pretty funny.I'd take a paparazzi running around behind me taking pics (with a flash of course) while I do what I do out on the street. For pure gold add in some npc captions like "Yeah! Just like that!" or "Hey Last Post... is there anything you want to say to your fans?!"
I'd pay for that in a booster pack.... and I haven't bought booster yet. -
Carnies, and where the h. is my Carnie task force?!!! We need to go to Fortune's Wheel and lay the smack down, I say.
I think Freaks are pretty cool, but since the xp-nerf and the addition of the Super [?]Stunners, I don't bother with them solo any more. Its not enough that every. last. one. of them has Dull Pain and uses it with extreme prejudice, now we have those new guys and yeah.... I will pass. Not worth the trouble.
Still loves me some Arachnos, even WITH Night Widows. -
They look a lot like the revamped Nighstar, just different colors. The new Nightstar can be seen right outside the train station in Imperial City, I think it is. Reeeeaaaally pretty. Victorias are lighter colors though.
Regardless, I want one. But all new Clockwork rule, Vicky's just the prettiest. -
I have two MMs. Both of them have Group Fly to ferry everyone around with. Slow, inconvenient, but beats having to run around on the ground or have pets struggling across the landscape after me, who is a half-mile away.
-
Quote:Do you have any idea how long that is gonna take?! I don't even have anyone at tier 4 of the Alpha slot yet, and to be honest that's nowhere near happening. I have three characters I am seriously pursuing incarnate stuff with, and its veeeeeeery slow going, Especially since we seem to have recently underwent a shard-drop nerf.Unlock the Lore Incarnate slot in I20 and a Mk-VI Victoria pet is yours.
Nice idea, but I won't see that pet for literally years. -
Quote:That would be a nice option, but I would not take my cat into a battle situation in real life, not would I want one doing so in-game. I guess you could dismiss a pet like that when entering a mission; perhaps I am too tenderhearted about animals in general. I also dont really want to see people flying off as their dog struggles to keep up with them on the ground; I see people doing that with MM pets now, I hate the sight of it and it would upset me to see this happening to animal pets. Way too tenderhearted.I'd honestly rather have a "pet" pet. Like a dog, cat, or bird. That would have went perfectly with the Animal pack. I can also see it being popular with the role players.
But hey, my Dominator has decided she wants to be followed around by a giant metal guy, to intimidate the opposition. He can just look cool. Although.... having a pet who could drop Statesman's recovery into the basement would be mighty handy.
Oh well, we won't get vanity pets with truly useful powers, but one that looks cool would be plenty of fun. Like Vicky. Vicky following you around would be fun. -
You know those vanity vet-reward pets; yeah, the ugly ones, the stupid-looking ones. [Not all of them for either category or both, but many of them qualify as far as i am concerned.] If you love them great, if you're like me you're doing stuff like looking at the Clockwork pet we have now and going, "....ugh." And just not bothering.
I would like to suggest a new vanity pet: I would like an MK-VI Victoria Clockwork pet, please. She doesn't even have to do anything, just follow me around looking cool! In fact I would prefer for her not to draw aggro.
In fact now that I think about it, an ACU or BCU Clockwork pet would also rule. Or any of the new Clockwork!
"Victoria" is one of the coolest-looking NPCs in the game. Veteran Victoria pets now, please! -
I agree that it is iunlikely that we will get laser cannons.
We could sure use a Weapons pack, though. -
Quote:What we need instead of some of these stupid and [to me] mostly useless booster packs we've gotten lately, is a Weapons booster.Yes. I would like shoulder/forearm firing options and more choices for rifles. Very good suggestions. :-)
More rifles, more pistols, laser-cannons of several types, a BUNCH of new bladed weapons of all kinds, bows - we need more bows.... we need all of these yesterday.
But especially we need shoulder - and forearm-cannons. Just think how decent Fire Breath would finally look coming out of a forearm-mounted cannon a la Terminator. -
YES to shoulder laser-cannons, would like to see forearm laser-cannons, and yes to electric attacks emanating from a rifle.
NOw if we could just get a decent looking rifle in the game! Why is that so hard? All of the rifles we have now stink, to put it mildly. Even the Arachnos ones are not that hot.
Moar new tech-type stuffs, please. -
Quote:Its hardly "trolling" to note that you pop in with this exact line of defense each and every time that someone requests more costume slots. You've been doing it for years now, its what is expected from you.Can you read? I said I don't care if they sell them which is what the OP asked for. Go troll someone else.
This game is full of things that we as individuals don't like or use for ourselves. Yet other people are happy to see it, and what does that hurt naysayers? Didi the developers creating the Animal pack personally harm me? No. A good example of someone not being harmed by something they have zero use for.
Perhaps you ought to quit "trolling" threads suggesting things you disagree with. 'Ave a nice day. -
Quote:The Animal Pack is a complete and total waste of time, money and effort to me, and yet, shiver me timbers....! The devs made it anyways! Amazing.This.
That said, I don't care if the devs sell more costume slots. Seems like a waste of money to me with the save option, but hey if people want to spend the money.
I think we should get more costume slots FOR FREE. It should be a vet reward or something, because I'm feeling about fee'd to death over here.
If you or anyone else does not wish to unlock more slots, then don't. Its not like someone has a gun to you guy's heads shouting, "UNLOCK THE COSTUME SLOTS OR ELSE!" Sheesh, just don't do it. People who want them are happy. People like you are happy. It's a win-win for everyone.
We go through this every time this request is made. What do you care if other people can make more costumes? I sure don't care if everyone else wants to run around wearing miniature wolf-heads -
Quote:I will admit that Quarterfeld is a really, really bad TF and I refuse to run it again until its looked-at by a development team set on revamping it. However I think Cit is actually worse for the following reasons:Quarterfield FTW. The last of the twenty-two missions is a defeat-all in Oranbega versus Rularuu. It doesn't even treat you with an AV!
*Quarterfeld is actually [I think] a level 50 TF, so at least you have the chance to get some shards.
*You're not exemped down, so the rewards/cash are/is better.
*Cit takes place - all of it, as I recall - on that &%$!! underground Council fish-farm map with its undulating floor and general claustrophobia-inducing cramped hallways. I hate that map worse than any other I can think of, including the CoT dougnut-cave one. At least Synapse takes place in a bunch of warehouses where you have room to move! -
Quote:I'm so glad to hear it that I almost don't care. Citadel is the worst TF in the entire two sides of the game, with Synapse a close second. Although I have recently been reminded of how much I loathe numina.... All of those old TFs need a quick trip to the scrapheap, and it could happen yesterday for all of me.I hope you are adding something to redside to balance the time spent focusing on the CTF.
One thing about redside SFs is that they're all so much better than these clunky old repetitive blueside warhorses, they don't need a revamp. -
Yeah but warden, that doesn't matter. No matter how many players are in each zone, they're both ugly and they both need a revamp.
-
Quote:Redside, blueside, any ol' side..... this game world needs a SERIOUS UPGRADE. Go on over to the Distinguished Competition and take a peek at THEIR ZONES. OMG. Jaw-dropping beautiful is what I am sayin'.... their game world is so gorgeous and ours is just 5+ years worth of outdated by comparison.People, it is all about equity. Or did you "high"-and-mighty heroes forget about such an ideal?
I am all for making a huge smoking crater out of Atlas and Mercy, and getting some modern new landscapes to look at. An always-night zone like the Distinguished Competition's would not come amiss either. I love CoX and am not leaving it, nor do I think the Distinguished Competition's game is anywhere near as good as this one... but their game-world has ours trounced, and admitting that is only basic logic.
Destroy Atlas and Mercy, create something that makes us say "wow" in its place. -
I am unhappy with WSFs that do not allow the possibility of shard drops as one goes along. I doubt I will be running many under-50 WSFs unless on characters that just happen to need that badge.
I wont be running any more Numinas because only this morning I was reminded that I detest being sent to Terra Volta to languish while some goober vainly tries to defeat 20 CoT in Perez, or whatever. Pass.
