Someone mentioned they received a error when selecting Swap Ammo. I too have encountered the same thing. I'm going to lean to the side of it being a bug since its a new mechanic of Mids, and it was most likely overlooked.
Once you select Swap Ammo, it seems you can't add slots anywhere after that, nor add a new power. In order to work around this, change the type of build you are creating from Level Up Mode to Dynamic Mode, this is next to where you enter your name for the character.
If you use Dynamic Mode all the time, it won't be a iussue but for those who use Level Up Mode, like myself, after you choose the Swap Ammo power, change the Level up Mode to Dynamic, after you choose your next power, you can change the Dynamic Mode back to Level Up Mode and you are back on track.
It's a minor error, but very easily worked around.
Also, Stoney, on the Blaster Secondary, you are missing the Icon for Electrical Manipulation. Other than that, I haven't found anything else.
Keep up the great work! -
Thanks everyone!
Funny thing is, I totally forgot my B Day until this morning. I was reminded by my kid when she jumped up and down on me this morning to wake me up singing Happy Birth Day to you....lol
Great way to wake up in the morning. Rudely awaken with the reminder that you are a year older ::sigh::

Well, I say bring any badge you want to the game. wether or not people feel its nessesary or not, I welcome them. Regardless of how easy or hard they are to get.
I've been here since beta, so to me any badge you want to call Epic is a plus to me, I think its Epic that many of us have been here and are still here since the beginning of this game.
I can't really say if I'll switch sides or not with my main, it all depends on what it costs me. I've been with my SG for over 5 years and would hate to have to leave the group just to grab a few badges. Not counting losing my rank, my join date, my presitge totals for the SG..etc...etc. So if that is what it costs, then I will stay strictly as a Hero.
I will just take advantage of switching side with my alts. Just have to wait and see how it plays out I suppose. -
Hello everyone,
I just wanted to come in here and give everyone the details as to what had happened. And what we have done to correct the situation.
As some of you may've seen, we recently added a Ad Service to our site to help generate some money to help keep the site running due to server costs..etc..etc Well the Ad Service we used was Clicksor.com
Everything seemed to be fine until I had the same thing happen to me when visiting my own site. I thought I actually had a virus, but that wasn't the case. Afterwards, I did what most of you may have done and ran my Virus Scanner and Malware program. The end results were fine, I wasn't infected. And I truly hope no one else was either.
It happened a second time when visiting my site, and that's when it dawned on me, the only thing different on my site was the Ad Service. So I contacted the Ad Service and reported this situation with Clicksor.com immediately.
After about 2 days and no results, I finally decided to remove that Ad Service, after I received the two emails, it told me it wasn't just me and my hunch was correct about it being the Ad Service. Since then, I haven't had any issues. That Ad Service will never be used again, nor will I ever send anyone to them in the future.
I contacted BidVertiser (another ad site) in regards to this same situation and they assured me, that their system has protection against things like this and can not happen. So the site will be fine as of yesterday. But I'm not worried about the site, I'm more worried about the community and its thoughts when it comes tot he site. So the issue has been "Removed" all together with no future of it ever happening again. (At least I hope not)
So I'd like to "Wholehearted" apologize to anyone who may have experienced this over at my site. I wish it had never happened and if I knew such a threat was possible, I never would have placed it on my site to begin with. So I hope you can understand that.
And in the future, if anything like this should ever happen again, I would hope I would get a email ASAP. I think I did from 2 different members, one being in this thread. Another actually had the info I needed, which was given to Clicksor.com but I wasn't waiting for a fix, I removed the service and will never look back to them.
Again, I really apologize for this and hope you can forgive my ignorance.
Sincerely,
Rob

Ok Dee, I found some images I had from a previous post in the Base section. The rooms may be a bit outdated, but I figured I would share them anyway.
And yes, I know they are a little blurry, that was from my old video card
These pictures are old and honestly doesn't do the base any justice at all, the base is much better than these pictures, At least for the Villain base.

Well for many of us who are collectors of sorts are now running out of things to do. I'm tired of grinding out TF/SFs day in and day out and I really don't need them for anything, its just something to do. Ive ran all the content many many times over in the past 5+ years.
I'm trying to come up with some suggestions that will give people like myself a reason to stick around and collect somethign else. Better yet, something new to do and collect.
Content is always good, but the small things in life are fun too, thats why I came up with this suggestion. The tech is already there, the devs just need to add to it.
I personally would love to have another mini game and collect things like Action Figures, and I can have some fun and chose my fav character to follow me around rather than the few we have now, that I personally don't like.
There are many Figures that could be created from the Sig heroes and villains, not to mention, a figure from some of our fav enemy groups..etc..etc.
We get these non combat pets from Vet rewardss, but it would be nice to have other ways to earn other Pets for the sake of fun. -
Hey everyone, this is something I liked when it was first introduced. But we haven't really seen too much of it. As some may know the other game has these as well, they have a large variety of Action Figures generated from their main NPC Characters.
So my question is, how come the devs haven't elaborated more on these Non Combat Pets?
I would love to start a collection of Action Figures of the Signature Heroes and Villains in this game. Make it so that we can earn them. Purchase them as a booster pack..etc..etc.
For example, Completed the associated TF and earn its Action Figure (Complete the Positron Task Force, earn the Mini Positron Action Figure)
NcSoft could even make booster packs for special characters such as the Halloween Booster Pack, Winter Event Booster Pack..etc..etc. This would give many people something more to collect and have fun with and at the same time, another Micro transaction for NcSoft to help pay for future updates.
Not sure about most here, but badging has been a great mini game and it would be awesome if we could create another mini collection game with Action Figures.
Another suggestion, make a new tab in the badge window titled Action Figures or Non Combat Pets, and for each Action Figure or Non Combat Pet we earn, have a badge associated with it, so we have a way to keep track of the figures we have earned. And of course so we get more badges too
Anyone else have any thoughts on this? -
Quote:Well I look at it this way, throughout your career, you earn certain things, whether in real life or in game. Just because you make a choice on how the rest of your life is played out, doesn't negate the fact you have achieved those certain things in the past.This is kinda where I'm at, too. For me, it really depends on what ends up happening to the blue-side badges (my badge toon is a Scrapper) while you're switched. If they are "masked" or hidden in any way, then forget it, I'm not interested. I don't care about badge names changing, and certainly I could care less about abusing accolade powers, but, to me, your achieved badge total is, officially, what shows in-game. If that total is somehow affected, I'm really not interested.
Then again, it occurs to me that if the community decides that "earned badges" constitute any badge the toon in question has ever gained and show up and are verified on a neutral site (such as on Beef's), I'll probably knuckle under and go flying off after all the red-side badges I can get.
Way to waffle, there, Eric.
So with that being said, I hope the devs remove the Hero/Villain tags from all badges and allow people to keep everything they earned and gain even more.
I do understand with accolades, they don't want you having those powers, and I can agree with that, but I still think you will be able to obtain the said badges and the accolade badge, just not the powers from those specific accolades.
At least, this is what I'm hoping for anyway. If you can keep everything you have earned and switch sides and earn more, I'm sure many will do it for that mere point.
But we will have to wait and see how it plays out. -
Quote:I'm still considering going rogue with my main, Im not sure yet. I did happen to make a villain costume for him already just incase I decide to do so.So Beef, will your namesake get roguish and be top dog in the game, or will he stay number one on the heroic charts?
It really depends on what we get as a bonus for staying hero or villain. No information has been leaked about what we get for staying as we are, so until that info is announced, I'm undecided. -
Well, I don't have 2 to go, I have 1, but I will have it in about 3 days on my hero. My villain has about 10 days left for his last day job badge. Then he will have them all.
Good to see everyone is closing in on the final badges. Now all we have to do is wait for Going Rogue -
I sense a new TF/SF possible Co-Op.
At least I hope so, would be nice anyway. I look forward to seeing what comes of this. -
Happy B-Day, does this mean all the money you get with your B-Day cards, you will be buying us all a drink? :hiccup:

Wow, thanks for the negative rep.
3 people felt it in their hearts to give me neg rep because of my post...wtf.
Amazing, we have one hell of a community here.
Thanks -
Quote:It is now, sorry I was at work and didn't have access to add it earlier.Hi,
new badge is in the Accolades section, but not, as yet, active on BadgeHunters site
Cheers
As for the badges text, it would of been nice to see it read ...
"Being a Champion, doesn't make you a true Hero!"

Not that you care, but if you take a gander at the detail page of the explorations, we do have pictures to show exactly where they are as well.
For example:

Hope ya like it cuz this is what makes this month cool
And here is another cool pumpkin for ya...
Share'em if you gottem -
I assure you, it's not a whine, but more so a gripe on how support handles tickets and people on different levels. When they should treat each ticket the same.
To act as if I'd never get the badge would be childish, I know I'll get the badge regardless if I have to run it 50 times, it'll happen. That's not my argument here at all. -
Quote:Badge Earned!
Got the response from a senior rep! Badge awarded!
If they happen to see this, thanks customer service!
P.S. If anyone from this thread or from teams associated hasn't received it, it's probably because they haven't petitioned for it.
Good to see you got it. But this is exactly what pisses me off about support, they're selective on who they give the badge to or so it seems. My team also has sent in a support ticket on this SF and we've updated our tickets with screen shots, yet we were still denied the badge from support.
I seriously feel support either needs to give it to everyone who sends proof of completing any TF/SF and award the credit to everyone or don't award anyone anything at all. Don't be selective on who is awarded the credit.
Just by seeing this makes me want to cancel my main account. It's not that I can't do it again, it's the point on how support handles things with different people. It's the principle and nothing more. It's ********! -

Quote:We completed the Master of Barracuda Stikeforce requirement last night.. no death and no temporary powers. Leader was on 0 - 0 difficulty setting so -1 wasn't being cheap. Unlike the previous runs, we didnt crash upon talking to Lord Recluse and everyone were given the merits. And those, who did not do the Strikeforce on their current toons, were able to get the normal badge, but NO ONE was awarded "Master of Barracuda Strike Force" badge.

I submitted a bug report on this same exact thing, the GMs told me that the stability patch fixed this issue and to "Run it again!"
Well I did just that and got the same thing you did, no badge. I so I sent in my bug report again, well actually just updated the same ticket. Guess what I was told...
(As a result of certain logout situations, your character may experience the loss of brief periods of gameplay, usually no more than several minutes. As your character's persistent state was not saved properly in these instances, support will not be able to reimburse any rewards as the record was not properly communicated from your client to the server. )
Awesome! Thanks for the freaking help!
So anyway, good luck getting the badge, I did the damn SF 3 times already and same old crap, same old excuse from support. -
Quote:Wow you can actually set the mission to -1?We did ours on the first try, but on the -1 diff setting it wasn't even a challenge. The master badges are a joke now.
I didn't think you could manipulate the Task Force numbers like that when running a master. Good thing to know now, I will do that when I run them from now on. -
Yep, that was a first run with everyone and being that it was a pick up team, stoked me even more
But I have helped others get it already. Now, Iu'm just wasting my time on the Reichsmen TF that isn't awarding the Master of badge, instead it disconnects the damn map server when you have him down to like 1000hp or less, and when you log back in, the TF is completed but don't get any rewards.
Done that twice now to me, and I'm about fed up with it already.
Thank god we have beta testers....lol
**Edit**
Actually, no. That was my second attempt team, the first one was a failed run due to ambush in the 3rd mission. They were trying to port people to the computer and got nailed. But things like that happen. -
Quote:Cured my ***!Well got my response from senior support;
They indicate they know of the issues and apologize for them. They also state said malfunctions are now fixed....(I'd presume that was one of the goals of todays maintenance).
They also state though that since we all crashed out of the game right as the server would communicate the badges and rewards to us, that our characters didn't receive them and they cannot provide them.
So in a nutshell the malfunction is allegedly cured, and anyone affected needs to suit up and run it again.
I ran it yet again after I got that email and it happened to my team again. So its not fixed. At unless it was a damn flook for 8 people this time around.
But I'm seriously getting sick of wasting my time and not getting rewards for it. They need a better support system that actually help you instead of giving excuses and telling you that you have to do everything all over again. In hopes that they corrected it. -
Yep, same here with the team I was on. Completed the TF with a Map Server, logged back in and no rewards, no nothing.
Hopefully the GMs will award the badges to everyone instead of saying "You have to complete it again" -
Quote:
This is exactly happen to my team as well, I reported it to support and I hope they award the badge to us. If they don't no biggie as it wasn't hard at all.
My support ticket was...
Code:Just to elaborate on what happened... The following players and myself completed the Reichsmen Task Force with no deaths and no temp powers. Beef Cake (me) Jason Collier Falcon X Fashion Sense Dyre Knight Jesse Donner Warchylde Oh So Naughty Upon defeating Reichsmen at the end of the last mission, the team was disconnected from the map server, when we all logged back in, the Task Force was complete, but we did not receive the Master of Badge for completing it. I believe none of us received merits for completing it. I'm not sure I did as I did not keep track of my merits beofre I started the Task Force. But after logging back into the game, I noticed I had my inspirations I used in the last mission replaced back into my inspiration tray and I only had 2 uses left on the temp power and now I have 7 uses left. So it seems the Map server disconnect rolled the entire team back a few minutes. I'm thinking this is why we received no merits or the Master of Badge. I hope this helps describe the situation we had with the Task Force
