Issue 10 is what? A new zone? Wow, fun. : /

A revamped zone, new task force, more 35+ content, new costumes, new Inventions, Co op zone, and world spanning events for players of all levels. And the begining of what could be a multi issue story arc which sounds really interesting.

well it depends on how you like to play
personally I like my Mind/emp controller, the mind set is kind of a jerk set, you lock them in their own mind and either defeat them outright, hurl them off of buildings, or confuse them to kill/arrest their friends and/or boss. I started a trick arrow archery defender and thats kind of fun, slow to get started but still fun. I'm looking into making a grav/radiation controller because the concept of throwing radioactive buicks at people pleases me.

Its really all about how you like to play. tell us more and more suggestions will come.

STEP 1: steal statesmans pants
STEP 2: ?????????
STEP 3: Influence

How can we not back this up? I know at least what I have stated was true and valid points. But what it really sounds like to me is that you have nothing better to do than try to discredit what we say even though there isn't much that you can back it up with. True its not against the rules for said Gane Doe to do what she did. We aren't saying thats the case, well at least im not. What I am saying is that with I9 coming up and IoP coming into play (hopefully) soon that rules need to be changed or the game will lose more people.`This is a problem that needs to be adressed. Oh, and BTW the holiday weekend is over and this post is still here with over 900 views. I think we did something right and there is obviously some validity or it would have been deleted already.

actually you didn't do something right, just because no one has locked it yet or that 900 people have come to the sockpuppet show does not mean that you have a point.

bottom line, people suck. If the leader of your sg goes nuts, leave. find another SG with some stability. does it suck? yes. Should the GM's waste time on this crap? No. Does it ruin your day? Only if you let it.

in closing

I have 2 machines. It happens once in a while on one, never on the other.

Dismissing people's real problems like this makes them angrier.

Read Lighthouse's post before dismissing reality based on your perception.

Be glad you haven't had it but don't dismiss those who do get it.

I am not dismissing those who do get it, what I am asking for is a little more understanding and the realization that it may not be just the game. There are bugs in every game which is why there are patches for every game, no game is perfect. However I think that the extremely vocal minority of people who have these frequent problems should take a moment and look at what they are running it on rather than immedietly running to the forum and screaming about how crappy the game is and how they are going to leave. It gets real tiresome real quick.
I dont dismiss reality based on my perception, I don't doubt that there are a few disconnects and crashes that are due to the game and how it performs on certain peoples computers, however I dont think that a lot of the crashes that we hear about here are really just the game being buggy because the devs put out a crap product. All I am saying is that its not as bad as the vocal minority states it is, it doesn't crash "all of the time" and it is far from "unplayable" there are some issues yet but it is well within the Developers and the Studios best interests to keep the game running smoothly for as many people as they can and for the most part they are doing a darn fine job of it.
again I am not saying that some crashes that happen are not the fault of the game alone, I am sure that a few are, just not as many as people claim.

I have only been playing for a couple months and I have yet to experience any crashes or DC's, not a one, and neither have any of the other people I played with. I play with a constant group and PUG once in a while and only once have I ever even heard of a DC. I think what happens is that someone gets disconnected, they get angry and blame the game and not the millions of other reasons the game could crash or lag. The developers have to code the game to work with the most common computer type with the most common programs. Its impossible to recreate every possible combination of OS version and programs running in the background. I think most of the problems stem from issues with the users computer but most people dont want to take that responsibility. If the devs actually made a game so buggy that no one could play how could they make any money? I try not to post in any of the "Fix this game kthx" or the "Its Unplayable" threads because its rediculous. I notice a significant lag when I am running a chat program and Nortons decides its a good time to sweep for bugs, that and atlas plaza. Aside from that the game runs good on my computer and even better on my wifes laptop which runs vista.

I think the game is a lot of fun and I think the Devs are doing a good job keeping the game running for the vast majority of the players out there, and I hope that they dont get too bogged down by the small handfull of naysayers that whine and complain about every little thing and offer no solutions of their own.

There is one thing that the Devs need to fix and I mean Right Away. I think there is a quarter stuck in the Claws/Regen scrapper dispenser in Atlas Park, because they just keep coming.
