    yep i'm looking forward to how that works on tanks and the like, a team or close proximity defence/resist buff?

    or an 'intercept' move so you can guard a certain person within your melee range?

    /me hoping for a shield bash

    are you talking about the sprints you could get or something else that was given as vet rewards, the above is the only one i can think of... 4 years ago.

    I am surprised, and a little disappointed, that the only new story content they've mentioned is "more missions in Croatoa"

    i think it looks fantastic, cant wait to work on my overarc origin story for all my characters combined into a TF/arc
  5. what we find best to do on villains side is once the characters created, quickly get them to level 2 local to the main starting base, once oyu've got level two then just exit that start point and work your way (killing everything) to the wall, either by off beat routes or round the coast routes.

    by the time you're at the wall you'll be level 5 or even 6 ready to skip straight into port oakes and begin your paper missions to get your first two temp powers.

    misses low level content and lots of running round but does get your character boosted up to 12 fairly fast - far enough for you to really see if they are going to be any good or not. And its faster than trying to get teams and do missions.
  6. hospital rez penalty and the gross unbalance of ATs did it for me, the former could have been avoided but the latter was sorta to be expected with the most diverse AT filled game of its kind.
  7. i saw a bus! geif cookie!

    Laptops...

    to be honest if you buy a 'gaming' laptop for playing games, spec it with a 8600m and it falls over and dies after 3years due to the chipset melting then i seriously doubt you're 'gaming' on it at all as 3 years down they line it wont beable to play modern games anyway.

    i'd not recommend ati either, the graphical quality is different, and unfortunately games do not take advantage or even use ati graphics settings as well as their previous generation nvidia comparitive model.

    this we saw very evidently when we moved our desktops to ati, and the fps improved but introduced many querks and made several games ugly with there failure to do certain features which we took for granted on the nvidia.

    basically i'd buy an nvidia and live with the heat problems, its for gaming so it'll be getting replaced anyway, probably before a 3 year warrenty expires.

    Put your money where your mouth is. I look forward to giving the SSG failures another pounding. Twice wasn't enough it seems!

    Dunno if Psy and Gonk are entering this time or not?

    However, I have a feeling these will not be availiable for Stalkers. A shield is kind of... noticable.


    [/ QUOTE ]

    all the better, they'll be looking at the shield and not notice the sneaky stalker behind it hehehehehehehehehehehe
  19. yep i like this, looking forward to either more or intros to the other characters

    also it takes stun set IOs so you can slot it with chance to knockdown IO, v useful i think
