    It up and live

    Funny, I tried one minute before you posted this and it wasn't.

    Not complaining, though. TIME FOR BADGES!

    There will be about 5000 posts on it (including threads with "It's Live!" in the title) as soon as the servers come back up. So really, the only point of this thread was postcount +1. Or +2, as it were.

    Sometime between tomorrow and the heat death of the universe. (My guess is Sept/Oct.)

    Yes, anyone can visit and team together in the zone.

    (I believe a mission pack will be necessary for Free/Premium players to do the missions there.)

  7. That should be canon. There's no way somebody who isn't secretly an evil mastermind would bungle everything with Longbow the way she has. Half the time, the guys in the red and white tights seem just as bad as the enemies they face.

    A rare occasion where I agree with you without wanting to headbutt you at the same time.

    Also: a primeval jungle full of dinosaurs and man-eating plants, and like cavemen or a primitive society of some sort. (And yes, I realize that dinosaurs and cavemen didn't exist at the same time... just make the primitives the victims of a time warp or the like, with part of our goal to get them home to their own time or something.)

    Don't forget that she's also been subbed for Statesman in Recluse's Victory!

    I think the current plan is to remove her from Atlas and put BABs in her place in Issue 24, though we'll see if they actually hold to that.

    I won't forget!

    Meh, good riddance. Shove off States. My only regret in your death is that you didn't take that Mary Sue granddaughter with you instead of Sister Psyche.

    You are right though. I've just been bored of the game lately and the new sets and content would be just what I need to keep playing.

    I think that I'll just give COH a break and play my PS3 until the new sets drop.
    There's not a problem at all with that; everybody needs to take a break now and then to keep things fresh. I'm pretty much going to do exactly the same as what Spatch said--grind the bejeezus out of the new stuff on my badgers over the next few days, then take a break and play Skyrim (except on my Xbox instead of my PS3).

    I also need to really buckle down and find a job before the summer is out, and that means studying and figuring out where to get (and how to afford) certifications. You wouldn't believe how hard it's been to find a place around here that will just let me pay for one or two certification classes without requiring me to sign up for a ton of other stuff and paying over $10K for the "privilege".

    It's pancakes like this that started the whole "why don't we have staff fighting yet" rage threads.

    But at least now we know where to send the Goon Squad when people start complaining they don't have Water Blast yet.

    Don't sweat it, dawg--er, goat. It kinda snuck in as the final Vet Reward right before Freedom launched, without much fanfare at all.

    Or in my case, that's longer that I can go without having to visit the auction house between missions (/vault can be used anywhere!), more stuff that I can dump all at once because I don't want it, and more room to hoard the goodies that I want to keep for my other characters or friends.

    Indeed you can.

    That would net you a +12% global recovery bonus, but you have to keep in mind that actually only means an additional .21 endurance per second on most characters. You'd be using 6 slots to offset one toggle.

    Unfortunately the dog in question is 13 years old, half blind/deaf and far too easy to startle. (I don't even call him by his real name anymore, I just call him F---er.)

    So Slooooooooow.

    I know I am. I got a little miffed when I heard that they weren't releasing i23 until June, so I flipped a table over and have since found other stuff to occupy my time until I can punch Tyrant in the face.

  21. There's a Memorial Day Weekend sale going on in the store! The Think Tank is back for a limited time, and there are lots of nifty sales too.

  23. Everyone is allowed to have an opinion, but that doesn't mean they're all going to be equally valid as feedback.

    For instance, if somebody went completely ape pancakes about getting a rez for free and treating it like he just won the lottery on Christmas morning, the devs would probably disregard that as a fringe thing and not representative of the group.

    On the other hand, we have people like me and Mystic_Fortune (and I suspect a few others here based on their forum registration dates), who already have tons of this stuff included in Super Packs or as part of the Paragon Rewards Program, whose opinions don't really matter because of what what Agent White said above:

    Freebie Friday is not being targeted at you.

    There are plenty of free and premium players I'm sure are digging the 'useless' goodies that they normally wouldn't have access to by the bucketful.
    However, I'm not going to complain about getting something for free, even if it's not something I really want. I'll either accept it or politely decline. Complaining and bringing up entitlement issues because you don't like the free thing that they're giving equally to everyone is just gauche.
