Your gonna make me do it! Your going to make me go out and get one done...
When my wife asks...Im sending her after you Viv....

Outside of reviews I cannot get people to even play it. Not sure if they are starting and dropping it or just not even trying it. Sitting at 13 right now with 4 feedback.

If this game was any easier to solo I would not have to press the buttons.

There is some moderation going on in reference to the tags. Some "less than helpful" ones have been removed.
However if they are going to make it into anything more than "Forum PVP" the moderation needs to be stepped up a couple of notches. Otherwise just turn it off and be done with the headache. -
Quote:I think you hit the nail on the head along with the comment of MA is no longer the "New Toy". Mixed in with the various reports from Test and outside activities we are now in a bit of a slump.I agree that posting multi-page expositions of your own work is nothing but hubris, and commentary/response is likely to be light (and should be).
But it does look like the pace of reviewing is slowing down across the board. I think everyone is getting the feeling that we're shoveling sand against the tide and taking a boatload of grief for doing it.
And you are not the forum...stop saying you are. -
Don't tempt me so! My will is but fleeting and my wallet quite empty....
Then again...do I really need Internet?
Wait...... -
Good Job everybody. Now I want to get a pic done as well.....again.
Going to have to get a second job...... -
Quote:You know...if your just going to read my mind and post it before I get a chance to I am not even going to bother anymore...Wow, I somehow did not know this. I am... perplexed at the difference. Making this change would help out a lot with the perception that Fiery Aura isn't really as offensive as it should be. Though I dunno, I'd probably be more pleased with an improvement to Consume and making Burn reliably helpful.
How is the 30 seconds divided between fire and non-fire damage? -
Yeah, when he gets pissy he hits real hard.
I was very happy I could tank him. -
So far I am really enjoying it. I love the difficulty settings and the Super Sidkick is helpful for my low level toons when teaming. Did not try high level toons yet.
Keeping 5 levels of powers when you exemp down is going to make the low level flashback missions much more enjoyable
Color and power customizing is very nice but a bit confusing. Alternate animations are mixed in with different color themes. I do like that the CoV fire armor look is available...I will be adding this to my main when it hits.
AE changes are not on the top of my like list but it is a good solution to the issue at hand. Mixed with the other changes it should help curb the PL spam to some extent.
Based on what I am seeing so far I think we will see a slight shift back to real mission farming thanks to Super Sidekick and lvl 50 purple drops. Of course if the prices fall I am going to kick myself for spending 100mil on my last few pieces -
No, Clouded won the thread. Didn't you see the forum tag.
I actually like the definitions you quoted though the space between them is way to vast. I would be someplace between Casual Gamer and Hardcore Gamer yet I enjoy farming now and then. -

OK ok, ill compromise

Is that better? -
Quote:They were not multi-billion influence when I purchased them. Inflation has done that. So, is the market to blame for my sudden rise into power-gamehood?If you have a multi-billion inf IO monster build that is optimized for performance, you're hardcore even if you're only logging in 30 minutes a week.
If you have a couple of purples and some okay sets because you got most of them as drops and picked up some stuff on the market because you were curious about it, that's casual, even if you play 20 hours a week.
And of course there is the vast middle ground between the two arbitrary designations "hardcore" and "casual" where most players fall.
The stuff you slot and how you slot it goes a long way toward defining whether you approach the game in a casual way or not. I can only play a few hours a week now, broken up into small chunks, but I have a couple of set IO monster builds and several characters pushing a billion inf. I am by no means casual in spite of my limited game time.
Darn you rising prices! You have turned me into an evil farming powergaming monster!!! -
I was really hoping to win "The most I Like Pie Tags" award....but the mods cleared the tag.
Now I am a nobody again -

Quote:The game balance has nothing to do with personal playstyle. Nether does loot gathered, or forum posts, or how often I check the boards, or the number of times I tag a post. It is also not up to the devs to define it, we have a definition already in place.I think part of the issue is also that the devs have said you don't need to touch IOs or the market to enjoy the game.
Inventions are completely 100% optional.
NOTHING in game has been made harder to compensate for IOs.
There are even tool tips on the loading screens that say exactly this.
I think for the devs the true casual play involves SOs.
Like the word Farming people are twisting the meaning of the word Casual gaming to mean whatever they want in order to support there argument at the time.
The items you have do not define your playstyle. -
I was not thinking market, rather acquiring the items naturally. You are correct however and I should have been a bit clearer in my post.

Quote:I'm in a similar boat as Calash.
I don't have gobs of time to play anymore, maybe 1-2 hours 3 days during the week and a handful of hours during the weekend. To me, I play this game leisurely or casually.
But.
I like IOs. I don't have any purple sets slotted but I do have 10 50s (over 3+ years), and 8 of those are heavily IOed with Sets and Uniques. I use the market and my drops to my advantage since making Inf in this game is ridiculously easy.
I'm a casual player by my inability to play more often but I'm a min/max or hardcore gamer at heart.
The thing of it is, Purples are not the epic hard-core gamer only loot some people are making them out to be. They are standard, though extreamly rare drops for a level 50. By that very fact they are geared toward the casual gamer who does not participate in large scale raids or complex end-game content. They drop during basic missions. Nothing hard-core about that, they just take time to gather.
As I said before the closest we have to true power gamer loot is PVP drops. HO's can also be seen as this thanks to the revamp of Hammi, but with the lack of bonuses they tend to be viewed negatively by the general population. -
Quote:The way I see it, yes. Not only are we farming by the very nature of playing this type of game but the devs are farming us for real world loot.So running missions is farming?
Some of these definitions are hilarious.
Do y'all think about things before you post?
