Quote:That is absolutely horrible advice for a Safeguard mission. Blueside you want to go straight to the bank and stop the villain from robbing it and getting away.Originally Posted by Teehka
Just a quick fyi:
If you're planning to talk to the detective/broker and do radio/paper missions, before introducing you to your first contact they'll want you to do a "bank mission" which blueside will have you stopping a villain from robbing a bank or on the redside will have you robbing the bank.
Basics: Don't run to the banks and skip everything in between. Take your time going to the bank and kill any ambushes on your way there. Everything else is gravy.
Redside, however, is a different beast. Race to the bank, and you may find yourself with more Longbow than you know what to do with. Take your time destroying stuff so you can build up the timer. When I do Mayhems like this I usually end up with half an hour left on the clock before I even approach the bank. -

I remember a dev post a loooogn time ago that said, "Swinging is HARD." However, power customization was supposed to be hard to.

My work life is nonexistent. Friggin' economy.
(In before "I wish I didn't have to work". I'm almost 26 and live with my parents because I can't find a job 3 months and possibly longer after graduation, tell me again how awesome my life is.) -
Huh. Just ran my arc and it turns out you're right. This is a new though, since I've run the arc at least 3 times, and I've only just gotten the second souvenir now. I'd suggest reposting this under Bugs, as it's clearly not WAI.

This hasn't been my experience at all. I've done my own arc on a few of my characters and I only have the souvenir once.

Anyone telling me how on earth I can transfer a character from live to test, I can't find the link anywhere which normally guides you to it...
Please help...need to test my SS/Fire brute and Axe/SR brute power customisation options.

Looks like some badge requirements have changed as we were expecting. Copied my Blaster over and upon logging into Test he got Exalted (formerly 10 million debt), Protectorate (formerly 500 DE eminators), and Imprisoned (formerly 10 hours of mez).
Illusionist dropped from 500 to 100. Rikti mothership bombs dropped from 25 to 10. -
Suddenly finding I16 to be a huge letdown, as I discover that I have little interest in changing the colors of any of my characters' powers. A lot of nice QoL stuff, but otherwise very light, even moreso than I15.
Sigh.
EDIT: Recanting. Pure blue Bright Electricity is awesome on my Elec^3 Blaster. -
Couldn't help but notice the complete lack of any mission content in the patch notes. Looks like we're getting absolutely none this issue. I know we're getting a lot more in Going Rogue, but it would have been nice to get *something*...oh well.

Cool small feature #1: When you're level 50, your level is displayed inside your XP bubble ring (dunno if this works for non-50s).
EDIT: This seems to be the case for all characters regardless of level. Since none of my Test toons are part of a SG, it's tough to tell if this will replace the SG icon's placement in the same location. -
Bah, scooped by 3 minutes! :P

The I16 Open Beta subforums are open and I've just logged into Test.
EDIT: Bah, got scooped by 3 minutes (only because I wanted to try logging into Test first to make sure I was right). -

I was just thinking of a similar idea the other day. I had two recipes, I forget which ones, that each required 1x Alchemical Silver and 2x Stabilized Mutant Genome (for example). Both salvage requirements were white, so I went to go craft. I crafted the first one -- then the Craft button for the second one went gray. I had enough Alchemical Silvers for both recipes, but only enough SMG for one. I do this all the freaking time with recipes like this and it drives me nuts. I was thinking it would be nice to have a third color to indicate that you have enough of that salvage item to craft some, but not all, of the recipes in your inventory.
As for the Vault, maybe instead it could just be a remote listing (just a list, not the salvage window itself, that would defeat the purpose of having an actual building for the Vault). -
Carrion Creepers FTW. Sheer unbridled chaos. Slows, knockdown, immobilize, DoT of multiple types (including Toxic), SCREAMING FREAKIN' TENTACLES -- what more could you want?

Quote:I call no way. Even with graphics set at the bare minimum Champs still runs like garbage on my system with the same card.
My nVidia 7600GS video card could handle the howling snowstorms and sandstorms in Champions...
It's not. The game received a graphics update with CoV and I6 (or maybe the blueside update came in I7-8, I forget the exact timing, but it was brought up to CoV-level).Quote:I think it's asking far too much that people demand that CoX remain rooted in its' pre-2004 graphics outlay.
A graphics update would be nice, but how many people can actually afford to upgrade their system these days? Right now I'm not projecting a system upgrade as being possible for another year. I would hate to see my graphics quality go from where it is now (quite high) down to what I was forced to settle for in Champions (blocky, low-res, pixelated crap). -
Quote:The contacts unlocked by those badges are 45-50, even without Ouroboros it's impossible to outlevel them. With Ouroboros, any unlocked, outleveled content can still be played, that's the whole point of the Flashback system.Originally Posted by Desi_Nova
I can add 2 more
- Paragon Protectors
- Toxic Tarantulas
as well as any "kill x" badge required to unlock a contact
/unsigned on this sentiment, sorry. -

You get access to Titles at levels 15 and 25. When changing your title you can also choose to remove the "The" at the begining. You can even remove only the "The" and choose no title if you want to. You get unlimited Title changes once you reach level 50.

Quote:You can also go underwater on some of the Cimerora cave maps (the ones that have water, obviously).Originally Posted by Tempkin
Thats funny that i came across this forum post, it was just the other day i myself was running across the beach in GV and fell into that pocket of water, to my surprise there was a lvl 12 Blue coralax hybride swimming in the pool of blue water, not the typical green sludge you find around the beaches of GV...
I will be out searching for others....
BTW... I was able to go under the water and swim in that small pool of water in GV. Everywhere elese you just stay at the surface, yet in that small little pool you are able to go under the water....Just thought that was neat. -
Quote:Obligatory "can i has ur stufz".Originally Posted by Shadow Wail
I thought so too but I don't this that posi and horatio would make that mistake. It does sound like the devs are giving Heroes a new epic power pool and villains an extra power for brutes/VEATS.
I mean if this is the case I will call it quits, I am getting increasingly tired of blueside getting all the shiny stuff and we get overlooked. If blueside APP's get 1 whole new set for each mastery and a 5th power then thats just a plain insult. I doubt we are getting a new patron...I highly doubt we are getting anything but an extra power for the already mentioned AT.
Sad...very sad...
It does seem like this is a misunderstanding, although it would be awesome to see more Patrons. Silver Mantis and Barracuda are already contacts, so they could just add another arc to them (although I don't know if the game differentiates from TF contacts and regular contacts, would be a shame if that were a limiting factor). If they couldn't add content to the SF contacts, they could just add it to that character's Patron (Black Scorpion and Mako, respectively); in this way, the villain Patrons could have branching pools, allowing you to do Black Scorpion's arc and choose either Mace Mastery or Crazy Kinky Spike Mastery. -
Quote:I'm not claiming to know anything, to the best of my recollection that's the party line from the devs (I could be wrong though). You, on the other hand, have made a definitive statement about what would or would not have an adverse effect on server stability, based entirely on nothing. So who's the know-it-all here?Originally Posted by Aisynia
Bull****. It wouldn't be any laggier than the sky changing for a Rikti or Zombie raid. I love the resistance to change on the S&I forums by all the know it alls. It's really funny.. yeah.. funny..
