You can play Incarnate characters on someone else's account.
You can build a fort out of your GR box, too.
No you can't EULA says that's a no no.
And we in the EU didn't get a box for GR. -

If while you are reshuffling the forums you can fix the log in bug, I'll listen to the next three tangents you do on Ustream with out turning you over to KC and the sunshine band Zwill.

If you go out and buy CoV today, it refers to features that no longer exist, like base raiding. That's why the boxes also have a disclaimer on them about online features being subject to change.
All well and good, EU players didn't get a box though.
EU players got a pre-purchase option, while the devs said GR would include the alpha slot/first level of incarnates though. -

I'd say they should get Mission Architect if they bought the Mission Architect version. -

And yet they routinely do from the early levels on.
Mostly because they're dumber than bricks and need to "cheat" to present any sort of challenge at all. That said, the issue is more with the stacking of overpowered abilities and/or abilities that effectively hamstring many ATs and builds on base difficulty. Those types of mobs are much rarer and more annoying.
Actually the reason why some mobs have better versions of player powers, is they have the legacy version that players used to have but player powers get nerfed, mob powers don't. -

Actually, the devs apologized in the beta and on the live forums that the Preview for the Incarnate system would not be in Going Rogue and had been postponed due to player feedback. The word Preview is paramount here as it is The word taste in the Pax slides. Both mean sneak peak and only that.
So is 'first level'.
You know, the Alpha slot. There are three bullet marks for Going Rogue, when Posi talks about the Incarnate system. -
I'd be some what molified if I got another Paragon Reward Token, for purchasing GR, I'd be on tier 9 already if they'd not of messed up on the whole 'pre-paid time ='s up front reward tokens' that they'd said they'd do.

Not at all. If they saw that it was planned, didn't realize that it wasn't set in stone, and missed the announcement of the change, that's a shame, but that's all it is.
They still released Alpha slot though, it still required GR, it just didn't come out the day of GR's release.
It's not like Blizzard's Dance studio, something that was said to be part of expansion and never released.
It was delayed a bit. -

Analogies becoming progressively more contorted, distorted, inaccurate, and irrelevant.
Points being missed or ignored by a larger and larger margin.
What was that powerset from the other year that used to get posted in cases like this?
We're on the verge of a wholesale cognition and logic collapse here, people! Won't anyone think of the (utterly irrelevant) children?!
Actually despite your rather crude attempts at insult we may have stumbled upon something here.
Could it be the balls up of the lead dev/devs saying that Alpha slot would be included as part of Going Rogue, is what has caused this massive decrease in information from Paragon? They used to be very chatty, now everything has to go through marketing a dozen times before they can even vaguly hint at it... -

Maybe they should have. Not the issue here, though.
Sure it is. If they didn't refund people who bought GR prior to Alpha slot's removal from the deal, then those peopel still purchased access to the Alpha slot. Hence according to Posi's words, they should keep access to the Alpha slot.
The rest of the incarnate system? To paraphase various 80's movies, "That wasn't part of the deal!" -

Regardless of what they said during the marketing, what was there at release is what was there. You can't claim "it was going to be in the release, but it's not" should count the same as "it's in the release".
And in this specific case what was going to be there was simply rolled back into the free issue that contained the meat of the system.
Then they should of refunded all pre-purchases no? Because what people bought from them ,turned out to be different to what they recived. Their are a metric ****-ton of laws against that by the way.

Mobs really shouldn't have abilties much more powerful than the players version, unless they are encoutnered one on many, an IncTrial boss, or AV for example.

Your specific reason for the purchase isn't a factor. Access to Incarnate content is dependent on owning GR, but it was *not* a part of GR.
The first level was, as said by Positron and Warwitch, but they they are just/were lead devs of Paragon Studios, what do they know?
Hmm quandry for some of you, if the devs are always right and thus we never got Alpha as part of going rogue according to latest information, were the devs wrong when they said it was?
Kinda of hard to defend the devs, when you are calling them simpletons in the same sentance isn't it? -

For IO's I'd prefer for PReemium's that if they were slotted they still worked, but didn't give a set bonous, but yeah. Code and all that. -

Note: If you pre bought Going Rogue *BEFORE* the PAX annoucement (end of March) then more fool you to be honest, because there was *no* official announcement either here or there that i can find that stated that Incarnates were going to be included with Going Rogue....
According to TY, the period where where GR went on sale for Pre-purchase, may of been before the Forum merger.
Which would explain where quite a crap load of posts about it have gone. -

wha? I don't follow your meaning here. I know all of these words, but the order isn't making any sense. No sarcasm intended. I literally don't know what you're asking.
Before they 'removed' (delayed actually) it, it was included, for close to a year of pre-purchases (As in you give them the full money of going rogue) it was included. They said it at pax, War witch said it at the aniversry and when it was 'delayed' due to feed back Positron appologised.
I'm asking that if you buy something that includes a feature, but that feature has to be delayed at the point of release, do you conlude that said feature wasn't actually included in the first place? -
Quote:Originally Posted by Furio
Which they then removed, during beta.....cuz it's a beta and things change.
Soit's aprantly okay for them to delay something they've already sold you from the sale, and you to not have actually purchased it when they return it? -
Quote:Originally Posted by Aneko
During part of Beta.
Would be a valid point, but they sold it to people before the beta.
Not put up for pre-order.
Sold to, for full price. -

It was some how more annoying when I had her on ignore, they really need to change the ignore feature so you can't see that an ignored player has posted at all. -

I really hope to ******* god they don't change the currency.
It's hard enough getting a particular trial on union, now that so many people are playing new /time or beam rifle, alts.
Let alone when you want to do a BAF but the other four people who could allow you to run the BAF all need to do Tyrant's beach house, and two more need to run Tyrant's shower. -
