My first thought on the animal booster is that it is really cool.
But then...I don't think I will ever use it. I like how City is full of humans. Contemporary super beings in a modern setting. I have exactly ONE character with WINGS on it. I get more use out of the party pack, to be honest. (And I love it when people scoff at how I actually spent my money on something they don't like.) -

Quote:Yeah, I was gonna edit after I finished reading the thread. No need now! lol Thanks.the issues are seemingly erratic, but signs are pointing to only affecting poeple who have pets which summon their own pets (ie tier 2 bots with seeker drones, phantasm summoning its own decoy, ect)
im just gonna store my rare boosts until the crashing has been fixed, most of my toons which have rares had enough shards on hand to make at least a common or uncommon again -
For the rares, you generally just need to run the target of the week to get the unique piece, then craft one or two of the normal bits.

I used to buy Wizard because people were talking about comics in it. lol I enjoyed the letter columns, and would always hope for news about a Psylocke action figure...twisted Mego theater was awesome.
If not for Toyfare, we probably wouldn't have gotten Robot Chicken, or the very first Kitty Pryde action figure, too. -
I love this show. Characters are very well done. For the first several episodes, I thought they would be copying the original Stan Lee comics with a modern setting.
While I like that they found the Hulk and brought him back into the fold and his interactions with Hawkeye, I have a feeling that means no She Hulk down the road, who is actually more associated with the Avengers (and the FF) then Hulk ever was.
I'm also disappointed that they want to copy the movies so badly, that means no Human Jarvis (but he has to have been named after *something*, right?) and they are trying to copy movie Tony and can't quite do it. But he's ok.
Nick Fury is just about the most useless character on this show...He hasn't done anything of any value to date, except capture Grim Reaper once. (Strucker and Reaper are both at large). This is another example of trying to please everyone and pleasing no one with this combination of Fury from 2 different universes. He has NO edge at all.
Everything else is great though! -

It is obvious that some people want content in the incarnate levels that are entirely soloable. When I think of the Apex and Tin Mage task Forces, they kind of have that "epic crossover" feel, like when Marvel does something like Infinity Gauntlet or Civil War. Those stories are usually told in their own limited series. Like, you would have to collect Civil War issues 1-6 to complete that story. However, they would often have tie ins with the regular single character or small team books. An issue of Captain America would explore a minor plot point that was glossed over in the main book. Sometimes it would say "This comic takes place in between issues 4 and 5 of Civil War" or whatever.
The In game Incarnate Task Forces have several points that lend themselves to this precedent. They mention that Valkyrie, for example, has gone silent. She is presumed defeated and/or captured by the enemy. Yet we see her again guarding the portal at the end of Tin Mage.
Imagine: You, as a solo player, walk up to Apex. He says the main invasion needs 8 incarnates. You ask, surely there is some way you can help? He thinks, and says Valkyrie has gone missing during the invasion. Surely one or more incarnates can investigate that without much trouble.
Just saying, could be fun, and give soloers more content. -
Quote:RP is like the Force. It partially controls your actions, but it also obeys your commands. :PAnd that's why they published conversion books in the 90s.
Anyway, you can play ANY game system as just a hack and slash.
And you can play ANY system as a heavy RP centered game.
Roleplay is all about the players.
No system can actually produce good roleplaying. You can't make rules for it. You can't make mechanics for it. Mechanics can't limit it either.
Saying you can't RP in a particular ruleset is somewhat of a copout.
Now, MMOs, I will admit are difficult to RP in. And until I find a computer that can innovate as well as a human, I will never include ANY computer or video game as a true roleplaying game. Action/Adventure yes.
But even the best have very limited paths and results and RP requires a give and take between players and GM, something we don't get with the environment and NPCs.
There are simply no computer roleplaying games. There simply computer games that claim to be roleplaying games. -

I guess you haven't seen the new Avengers cartoon?

Quote:Any chance you could share your insights on that?Thank you Topdoc for posting your builds and thoughts, I have been looking for build that was close to my play style. I modified yours for i19, and it turned out freaking awesome, I have my single target attacks, destroy mob attacks, and even a team helper. I mostly play melee ATs, and this is right up there with them now.

I just wonder why they didn't just limit the amount of times nukes effects can stack?

Trapdoor is overrated, big time. I solo'd him with every single character I have tried it with so far, (including empathy/psi blast defender and fire/fire blaster.) From all the hype on the boards, I assumed it would be impossible.

My ice/rad corruptor didn't even put him in the lava! Just held, hit him with the debuffs and kept blasting away. He only bifurcated once.

Quote:You certainly have a gift for words, Chad. lolYour sheer optimism is the only thing keeping my palm from colliding with my forehead right now.
It ain't gonna happen. I doubt anyone but a skeleton crew is going to be in the office for the next three weeks. Certainly not enough staff to run a full beta--the previous super-duper closed i20 beta was limited to a scant few things, centered around the new Behavioral Adjustment Facility raid they talked briefly about at the last Meet & Greet.
It didn't contain everything that's scheduled to go in i20... at least that's my understanding. The only players who know for sure signed a piece of paper saying that NCSoft can vaporize them from their deadly space satellite if they so much as blink any unreleased info in Morse Code.
