  1. If I'm scouting a map looking for a boss/hostage, I want my stealth on. If I'm hovering slightly above the action, I want the def/res.

    I don't use it while flying to and from the Black Market in Cap.
  2. So instead of gimping my graphics, you suggest I gimp my actual character.
  3. Purposely gimping the quality of the rest of the game is not an acceptable solution, thank you.
  4. Right now, you have to check the Wiki in order to know which random roll tier to select for a given Common salvage (unless you have them memorized). It would be nice to know what you may get for a given salvage roll.
  5. Man, if you thought the devs awarding Dev's Choice to MA arcs caused an uproar...
  6. Croatoa makes me cry in my sleep and when I'm awake.

    *Pinnacle, Triumph, Justice at least.
    **Cap, Nerva, Grandville, Port Oakes, inside any mission**1/2
    **1/2 Okay, I haven't tested every mission, I am reaching a conclusion based on the available data.
    ***I know where you're going with this. It happens inside missions, thus it's unrelated to Rikti invasions.
  8. Yes, absolutely. The slug trail that follows behind me while I'm flying (particularly when scouting an outdoor map) is obnoxious.

    But, oh yeah, you don't have to use the Invention system or the Market, the AE is optional, you can level up and build a powerful character 'normally'... let's not all forget that...

    The game was not made harder after the introduction of IOs.

    Somehow everybody got by with SOs before IOs were introduced. You can still have a perfectly playable character with SOs. You want more power? You have to work for it more.
  10. Um...they're doing it right now.

    Mids

    Mids is no longer working on it. Someone else has taken up the mantle for the planner, but so far no updates have been released. For now, it's the most up-to-date planner available.
  12. Well I am disconnecting left and right, which never happens to me. I can do anything else internet-related just fine, but I've already DCed 6 times since yesterday. It makes the game not so fun to play when I have to start missions over again.

    Disclaimer: I am assuming that the OP's definition of "crash" is "disconnect".
  13. I've been having the same issue out of nowhere today. Not nearly as bad as the OP but it's happened 3 or 4 times, along with some pretty awful rubberbanding and power activation delay. I was starting to wonder if it was an issue with the Rikti invasions, except I was having the issues even on mission maps.
  14. With AE buildings in every single zone, that's not really true in any way. Nowhere did they say "you can level from 1-50 without having to leave Atlas", what they're saying is "you can level 1-50 entirely through MA arcs". Level-locking the buildings doesn't change that at all.

    Also I don't think fear of frivolous litigation should ever be a reason to not do something, but that's another argument entirely.
  15. Is it just me or has the volume of nonsensical threads increased recently?
  16. I don't understand why people think we need all these tricks to fix things. Simple solution -- level-lock the Architect buildings, restrict exploitable mobs. No more level 50s PLing teams of lowbies, no more enemies that grant disproportionate risk vs. reward.

    KISS

    You could always go to Pocket D and save at the Tailor right there in the Tiki Lounge. I have done this on several occasions prior to a reroll when I wanted to keep a costume, but use different powersets.

    That's a good point.
    You'd have to have the Pocket D VIP pass to make that easy, but I guess most do by now.

    Not everyone can afford every little microtransaction the devs spring on us.
  18. Scenario: you make a character, play him for a couple of levels, then decide for one reason or another to reroll -- different powersets, AT, even Origin if you're stupid like me. But you want the same costume. Right now, you have to drag your baby level 4 toon out to high-level Steel Canyon or over to Cap au Diable in order to save the costume. Although it occurs to me, you can just go into AE and save the costume there in the critter creator, but for villains this is still a pain.

    When you select a character, there should be a button to save the costume right there.
  19. Turn this game into school and I guarantee you it loses players new and old alike.
  20. Another possibility is that it's a dev-only power.

    Why can’t I choose Invisible as a color? I want my enemies to be confused as to why they’re taking damage.

    I know this is a joke but we don't actually know how transparency will be handled.

    Let's take something that encourages grouping (whether you agree it's the wrong way or not) and remove it. Let's take something that encourages soloing and put it in.

    Something's torn alright.

    I wouldn't really consider "one guy clears a map while 7 other guys stand at the door" to be "grouping". "Grouping" implies an actual group effort.

    And it's not like only solo players benefit from this. A 3-man team can spawn a map for an 8-player team, etc.
