illusion to dominators please!!!!! and broad sword too brutes?

Avatea,

Could you see when a FIX for the coloring of Judgement powers will be fixed, ive filed numerous bug reports on it in game as im sure have many others, and nothing has been said about it or time line like "its in the works" etc

Currently with the Judgement powers only the original, bright and dark colors work, but custom colors under the "custom" banner do not, i mean dark and bright are ok but it truly doesn't pick up both colors that custom show.

This has been an issue since the launch of Judgement Incarnate powers, and effects them all from what i can tell, and also the same bug seems too be effecting the coloring of the lore pet summon as well for all of them.

Ok this is cool, but if we 'go rogue' does it mean we loose all the progress of our original side? I assume it does, but for instance, My main blaster is SG Leader with top prestige, if I switch sides will I loose those points and get kicked from my group? Has no one thought of that yet? Or did I just miss it?

[/ QUOTE ]

You know, we do not know enough yet but maybe this will not be an issue. Maybe everything will become unified in a sense. Maybe original villains will be able to join hero SGs and vice versa. Maybe we will not have to see heroes and villains as two separate games anymore. So switching side could ( i say could ) have you remaining in your hero SG even while you are playing in the Rogue Isles.

In the end, maybe we are seeing issues and problems where there are none. We will see soon enough what's the dev plan for all that.

Arc Name: Refelctions thru Time
Arc ID: 12240

Faction: Custom, 5th column, Nemisis, Arachnos, Rikti, Soldiers of Rularuu

Creator Global/Forum Name: Celtic Devil

Difficulty Level: Level range 1-54, I would reccomend bringing a team with you as its more fun with a team environment i think and it will be good to lend Statesman some added support.

Synopsis: The Midnighters have had another temporal vision by way of the Oroborous Pillar they have aquired. It seems this time someone or thing isnt effecting time itself, but just altering the specific time line of one Marcus Cole who you probably know as Statesman. Journey thrugh some of his Legandry fights to ensure Statesmans Safety, and find out who is messing with his time stream.

Estimated Time to Play: Hour to hour and a half 5 missions 2 kill all

Link to More Details or Feedback: Looking for over all feedback what you liked disliked to make sometweaks for this story on live. thanks feel free to PM me here on the boards with any thoughts and feel free to rate it once you play it its a fun challenge for all you 50's out there!!!!

@ Celtic Devil - Can be found on all servers really and if i dont have a toon on one ill make one to help out or answer questions

so far we only know of the new powersets, and the mission maker thing, theres still the plot of the story line that has yet to be announced, just more missions in the roman zone is whats been said but that leads me to think more with the midnight squad, Darrin Wade who wants to free Rularuu.... i know story wont be a big part of this issue but they have to keep the "coming storm" plot rolling along

If there was a drinking contest, who do you think would win?

[/ QUOTE ]

my mystic forsight says ExLibris holds the answer you seek :P

Irish car bomb contest anyone

Would it have been too much for Domi's to have gotten illusion .....grrrrrr earth is my least favorite troller set

realistically if they dont bring it back there isnt much use for bases at all other then being a glorified storage shed for our stuff

Can you please stop claiming that the veteran reward system is a 'program which rewards loyal players' because as we all know it doesn't work like that.

Someone who has been playing for 3 months has more useful and more rewarding bonuses than someone who has been playing for 3 years. A reward is when you give someone something of value to them, an award is something to just mark an occasion.

The veteran scheme doesn't offer rewards, it offers awards once you get far enough into it. It's only rewarding for the first couple years when you get universally valuable things like trenchcoats, wings, temp powers and respecs. Once you get into the 2-3 year mark you have more respecs than you could ever need thus making them devalued and you're not getting costume peices which can be used on a wide range of characters, instead you get very very specific costume peices which are restrictive and not even suitable for super humans half the time.

It's been said time and time again, you cannot claim it offers rewards for loyalty when you insist on ensuring that people who haven't subscribed as long don't feel 'left out'. A reward is valuable because people want it, soon as it stops being desirable it's not a reward anymore.

Perhaps...Aeon goes far enough back to stop Statesman and Recluse from drinking from the Well of Furies? Thus, Recluse isn't powerful enough to take over the Isles...Another co-op TF that sends you all the way to the Well to defeat Dr. Aeon and his legion 5th Column allies? I haven't actually read the book, but didn't Recluse and States drink from it shortly before WWII? I seem to recall "1937" somwhere...well into Nazi reign.

You fight Requiem and Vandal, then go for a final showdown with Aeon in the Well of Furies. Reward=Incarnates unlocked.


And so, I will make an Odin Incarnate



[/ QUOTE ]


love3 this idea devs implement it!!!! i mean seriously what better way to introduce incarnates by having the playerbase go back to the well of the furies to alter time to make sure states is able to drink its water....


/signed

hmmm i do like the build up of an alternate timeline, but i do clearly remember the devs saying that issues 9-12 story lines would be tied together........

Now back to speculation in this alternate demension will we encounter Hero-1 since from all signs so far the rikti never invaded this time line, and if we encounter hero-1..... wow that just opens up even more questions....

All these contacts dying being a reference to Ragnorok

Oh, that's good. The very nordic look of the ouroboros definately fits a Ragnorok theme. Good catch!

Now, which villains do we know who would be involved in "Ragnorok....?"

[/ QUOTE ]

im glad someone saw my post! I thought of it since someone posted saying positron was trying to make religious references in future updates. As far as villains who COULD be, what about NEW villains that could be involved? New Heroes and Archevillains being introduced?

[/ QUOTE ]

hmmm could this be the villian u seek??? after all he is bideing his time in an alternate demension if i recall

Ridolfo Uzzano has come a long way from his humble beginning as one of Mussolini's lapdogs. The primary cause of his success was his fusion with a Nictus, a being of utter darkness. The Nictus gave Ridolfo the ability to scorch his foes with an infernal fire. Though he is now over 100 years old, Requiem remains a fearsome foe in battle. Before The Center arrived to spoil his fun, Requiem ruled over the massive military organization that was subsumed by the Council. His closest attendents suspect that Requiem is still smarting from his loss of power, and plotting his revenge.

IIRC, something else that Lighthouse said recently is that I11 will give 'level 50 characters a lot of things to do'.

I think it's as simple as Portal Corp. finding a portal to an alternate universe Paragon City, one where the Outbreak virus spread across the world. Level 50 heroes will have a dozen new zones to explore -- decayed and infected versions of the existing Paragon City zones. Sounds like fun.

as long as its only 50's that can get in lol..... could this be finally a PI where there are no cries for PL MEH!!!!

If thats the case then deadly virus or not that will be my new vacation spot lol

You know something? I think everyone that has been theorizing about which groups are doing this and what not might be onto something, but might be taking it into the wrong direction.
What if this wasn't some sort of villain plot, but a complete accident? What if, and hear me out plz, A powerful Outbreak patient gets into a facility where there is Time Travel style equipment. He might be crazy, but he's sane enough to know how to work the equipment. In his mind, if he goes back in time before he's infected, he won't be infected anymore, so he sets the coordinates to before he got the plague, and ZAP he's back in time, still infected, In a rage, he kills off Greg Miller, and ZAP again history takes another turn for the worse. Fearing reprisals from both the future and the present, he makes an escape through the sewers to Talos Island where he meets and infects a major Lost cabal, who in turn spread it amongst the populace. It's the butterfly effect. A guy walks through a door, History changes for the worse.


Although, this might be some sort of Crisis on Infinite Servers type deal where they are trying to streamline our heroes and villains down to say 10-20 alts so they can squash the servers, or make a serverless connection, but the other theory sounds more viable... Especially with the symbol of the snake eating his own tail...

i can see them using that as a decent story direction i posted somethign similar in the teaser image thread.....

i could see this happening actualy i mean they already have stuff in place for a story line this way, as what i posted in the screen shot thread.....

welll from what im guessing both by the screen shot and the paragon times article it would be possible for the outbreak to never be contained in an alternate time line, think of it this way heros go to outbreak they can get the isolator badge there by defeating 100 of the contaminated. if you skip the tutroial as others have mentioned you youself dont stop the virus, altering the time stream a bit. The reason i think this is because if you miss your badge there in outbreak, the only way to get it is to defeat a Contaminated that appears in a train station in Recluses Victory......... WHICH btw is a fluid timestream changing from one result to another ponder that!


There is a reason after all that only 1 contaminated appears at the train station at a time let the doom speculation begin!

Like vet awards are the most critical thing in the world
I wouldn't mind a couple more myself, but don't you think those are kind of second teir requests? Higher priority content has to be stuff like:

> SFs for every 5 lvls of villains as previously stated
> New interesting zones - I've always wanted to see ones that target other hero/villain genres like Anime style (like Princess Mononoke, dragonball Z, etc.) with costumes, big eye character options etc, or maybe a D&D style one with dragons, sword wielding knights, etc (plus some old favs like trolls, hydras, etc).
> QOL upgrades with better graphics for the high end ppl, and more abilities to tailor gameplay, load times, etc based on performance for those w gimpy computers
> More possibilities for enemies. I've felt Heros, AVs and the like are nearly impossible to solo or at least take so long as to not be fun, and elite bosses are too easy to solo. Something in between for those powerful min/max players would be nice.
> New stuff for high lvl, been there/done that players like lvl 50+ content, kheldon-type villain ATs, etc.

Just my 2c

[/ QUOTE ]


all im saying is that they have the vet rewards planned out to month 60, and while i agree content and QoL issues should come first i think that since the vast majority of players here will be coming up on the 39th vet reward SOON as the devs would say lol i would just like to know what we are going to be able to choose from as myself will be at month 39 probly before i10 even hits live.

Lets Get to the REAL matter at hand here now that i10 has been announced.......


ANNOUNCE the next set of freaking vet rewards i got under just over 45 days til im supposed to get reward 39 grrrrr

They learned from the last Event. They camped the hospitals for I think it was Cuppa's party, or one of the prior anniversary shindigs

[/ QUOTE ]

Not true. I was playing as Manticore during the Cuppa-thon and was responsible for spawning all of the critters during that event. None of the devs ever camped the hospitals. I spawned the RV versions of the Freedom Phalanx and Arachnos AVs at one point and I believe what happened was some crafty player managed to train some of them up into the rez stations. I was babysitting everything I spawned and killing off the things that were wreaking too much destruction. In the chaos, I lost track of a few of the AVs and just assumed that all of the players had taken them out. As soon as I heard over broadcast that they AVs had gotten up there I went up and killed them off. It was never us griefing you. At least not directly.

I suspect that this is what happened this time. Ghost Widow was actually the only dev who had permission to spawn anything during this event. I don't believe anyone working at Cryptic or NCSoft attacked another player. We actually have very strict guidelines about what we can or can't do while logged into a signature characters. So if you were attacked by Lord Recluse it was undoubtedly one of the AI critters spawned by GW.

We took a lot of extra steps to make sure everyone was aware of what was going on this time so everyone could avoid it if they wanted too. We had 8 or 9 instances of Pocket D open during the event and things were only being spawned in 1 instance at a time, with plenty of fair warning beforehand.

So if you were Manticore... and not your sig BaB.... that leaves one question .... What did u do to the REAL Manticore...... it has been a while since we have seen him


/em sets up manticore traps!
