  1. The real reason all of Neuron's creations are half-baked: Super-speedy kidneys and bathroom breaks every 3 minutes...


    If I am a winner, I permit NC Interactive, Inc. and NCsoft Europe Limited to use my name, likeness, photograph, hometown, and any comments that I may make about myself or this contest that I provide for advertising and promotional activities. I also certify that I am at least 13 years of age and am eligible to participate in this contest.
  2. Quite often with the Morality missions(and sometimes with any mission), the 'mission complete' appears for a instant, then the mission vanishes from my mission queue while still inside. The Exit Button also vanishes often trapping me within(especially in a mission full of waves of ambushes).

    Does he know how nasty Honey Badgers are?

    As OF this patch. I wasn't having them before. Now, I get lots of "Mapserver Disconnected", and a blank light blue screen instead of the login screen.

    EDIT: Also, often a pop-up "MapserverdisconnectedTryAgain" [OK]
    Quitting out crashed the game, but keeps my account logged in (Reloading and relogging informs me "Your account is already online"). My character, however is now in the zone I was attempting to travel to when the Mapserver Disconnets.

    Does this mean that Recluse finally wins??
    This arc isn't Recluse's plan; it's Wade's. Frankly, I think Recluse will be very pissed not having done it himself.
  6. Blah, I was working all day; didn't even see this contest until now.

    Even the extended cut of LotR?

    Again off topic: Isn't there a way to make Metallic completely smooth instead of the separated plates we have now?
  12. I think the tier 9 will be a controllable pet, or a shadow doppelganger of yourself.

  14. Despite the recent patch, my characters with Mace Mastery still cannot edit costumes but are still charged for the attempt:

    Infinity Server:

    Plutocracy
    Racket
    Retro 9

  16. Infinity Server
    Character: Ms. Mania

    Every time I log in this character all of my windows are moved to default positions(as thought I just madea new character), and the UI Window Scale resets to 100%(from the 80% I use for all characters).

    For some reason, this only happens on this character.

    I have to login every time I check the forums, even if I check "Remember Me".
  18. More or less the game as it stands can't support it. Things get funny with targeting and animations when things get too big or too small.

    I do wish they would give it a revisit, but we could never get a 50' character stomping around the streets of Paragon, and certainly not in indoor missions.

    ’ve already done a few hours of preliminary research into customizing Granite Armor, so I have a good idea of how much time it'll take to accommodate the desires of the pro-Devouring Earth camp. Ultimately, I don't think this additional investment will have a significant impact on the feature's launch date.

    I am quite happy to have received so much feedback about Granite Armor from all sorts of different perspectives, though. It's an indication that it's something you guys really want, and I'm always happy to try to accommodate specific, long-standing requests.


    Also, thanks for the reports about the bugged path auras. We are actively looking into this.
    Thank you, thank you, thank you for looking Granite Armor. I made a stone tank long ago when customization first came out, and I've been dying for Granite's customization to come. Thank you.

    I understand the no ETA set for this; I am am curious if there might be one for Venomous Gas? It went live without the means to customize it, and was afraid--like Granite--the day might not come for its customiztion...ing.

    Is there any chance some tailor tokens can be given? Not only could I not change my costume, but I was still charged significant Infamy.

    Remember how the meeting with Unicron went in '86? That's how Megatron should always be written. "I belong to NOBODY!"
    No Megatron should grovel. I saw him do it once, and that was just a ploy to grab another weapon in his fight with Optimus. (One that was clearly transparent, for he grovels to no one.)

  23. Yeah, I guess you're all right. Still, seeing Crey in full scrubs wading in the water looks silly. They're not calibrating any equipment, or scanning for anything. Just waving in the ater with scrubs and face mask.

    It looked so odd, I figured it had to be a bug or somthing.
  24. Timothy Raymond's "Defeat Thornbird & his guards" put me in a mission that should be inside a Crey office. Instead it drops myself and all the Crey enemies in the Nerva Primerva, and all the scientist are wadding in the water. It just looks ridiculous.

    In a game so centered around making your own unique apperance, why make a power that hides away the entire team in ice cubes?

    Yea, I know, you can make it kinda-sorta bearable by messing with it's colors, but more often then not when I end up in a team with somebody who has it it's a team of solid blocks of ice time.
    I concur. I was actually annoyed when Cold Domination ported to Defenders. I could avoid it by staying away from the Rogue Isles. Then, suddenly ice blocks were running around Paragon too.
    I can't stand the Ice blocks.

    Bile Spray is just gross as all hell. 'Shrimp-puke' is a more accurate term.

    Quills in particular is awful. Spines are already squik, but Quills--You are actively bursting forth broken bones covered in green gunk. Most players who use Quills always keep them on. I've zoned to other markets to keep away from them.
    It is, hands down the most nauseating power in the game.
