  1. I blame Karl for FG being a big meanie to Fo. I mean, he even kicks her off of Skype calls and never calls her back. No . . . wait . . . that part was me.



    *Oops*
  2. LOL @ Fallenz for bringing it back!

    (Thanks!)

    Whiner!

    Just kidding. I agree it'd be nice to see original critters like the zombies were. I see what the idea was with the themed critters, but new ones would be better, especially the GMs.

    The Rikti invasions are the same way.
    I have never seen someone explain it. Thanks. I knew that about the Rikti, too. Still, thanks again.
  5. I had my settings turned down, but this should be clear enough.

  6. Suggestion:

    Besides echoing the cries of "We need a marker for the GM," it would fit the theme of the event if the GM could spawn with the lightning animation from Lightning Rod. That would give people an idea of the general direction to move toward.
  7. Old Event:

    I'm still not sure why the Zombie Apocalypse drops level 30 recipes for level 50 teams.


    New Event:

    Very cool. Badges seem to award properly.

    Manga found some good bugs it looks like.
  8. Good post Commander!

    I'm looking forward to pushing all of my characters forward with Going Rogue.

    Also, Dual Pistols = Hawt!

    Those are the category. I think I will submit the mystery to original story and then my Knives arc to Best Enemy Group.
    I meant "Original Story" when I said "Non-Canon". I forgot what the categories were and didn't feel like checking before I posted.
  10. I should be around to help with this. Anyone else that heads over, let's team up and help test the new event. Just send a tell to @Cath whenever you're available. (Note: You might want to patch up tonight if you haven't patched Test in a while.)

    We will be hosting a targeted test of the 2009 Halloween event on the North American and European Training Room servers on Friday, October 2nd at 11:00 AM Pacific / 2:00 PM Eastern.

    The event will last for approximately 6 hours and will end at approximately 5:00 PM Pacific / 8:00 PM Eastern.

    If you are able to participate, please post your feedback in the following forum thread.

    We would like to get your feedback on the following :
    • Are objectives clear when the Event is running?
    • Are rewards being handed out correctly?
    • Are there any problems with the event occurring in any City Zone? (Note: The event will only be present In Paragon City or the Rogue Isles City Zones, and not in any PvP Zones, Hazard Zones, Trial Zones or Co-Op Zones)
    • Are there any graphical effect bugs?
    • Do banner icons appear correctly on the MiniMap when the event is running?
    • Do waypoints correctly appear when the event is running? (Note: Navigation waypoints of active Missions orient players to the Halloween Event objectives when a player’s character is near one, and should disappear when they leave the area.)
    • Are enemy NPCs appearing at the appropriate level? (i.e. a Level 50 should be able to fight side-by-side with a Level 5 character).
    • Are all badges awarded correctly?

      Dark Fiend - participate in defeat of Dark Fiend Banner
      Hell Hath No Fury - participate in defeat of Women Scorned Banner
      Terror - participate in defeat of the Transparent Terrors Banner
      Monster Masher - participate in defeat of the Monster Mayhem Banner
      Monstrous - participate in the defeat of the Aspect of the Sigil Giant Monster
      Hell and Back (Accolade) - receive Dark Fiend, Hell Hath No Fury, Terror, Monster Masher, and Monstrous badges to earn this Accolade
    We have set up a Global Chat Channel on the Training Room called “Halloween 2009”. We encourage you to join that Global Chat channel to share your experiences with other players when the event is running on Friday, October 2.

    Enjoy!
  11. Well, I was looking for some motivation to make a new video. I guess that's a pretty good one.

    TheOcho,

    I know it's not a contest or anything, but is there a deadline for this?

    Ditto this for me.

    If I switch my main to Villian side, I can no longer be in my SG. And I will lose all of my prestige. I wonder if this will be addressed, or if that will be part of the price you pay.
    Hopefully it will be addressed. It's been a big question for a lot of people thus far.
  15. Finally!

    Gratz on the meet-up Mag and Kay!

    Hey Bill Z! Good to see you in no-pants-land.

    Did you have a chance to do anything with that PM I sent you?
  17. When I get home, I'll check it out to see if I can help. It may be easier/cheaper to boost your Defense than you think. Would you mind posting the data chunk only here in this thread?

    All you do is click the checkbox that says "Export Data Chunk Only" when you go to the Mids export window.

    I agree with the need for fresh content. I'm not really that bored because I have so many "Dream Builds" to complete, and I'm not a good farmer. Because I'm not a good farmer, it'd be nice to have other things to do for rewards.

    I'll update the OP with other articles tonight some time, but there's at least 1 article that implied there will be more to our decisions than character development and rewards. I haven't been able to find it with just a quick search, but it said something about the decisions we make in Praetoria affecting things in Primal. I may have read too much into it. I'll update tonight.

    Everyone else, feel free to add more links/quotes.
  20. ^^ What Kitteh said. ^^

    Your level doesn't really matter. It's the level of the critters you are fighting.
