First, the big red ! appears.
Second, you click on it.
Third, you read the text: "Mesopotamian music, without any rules beyond language features and syntax, mimicked lamp making, just as palaces beyond the taste of ownership, in contrast to hundreds of official standards carefully developed from flood control, were involved in programming the first musical genres."
Fourth, you Go all Rogue and stuff. -

No tanks, warshades, peacebringers, or Kinetics(the buff set, melee is fine) and we won't remake something we already have at 50.
How about a GC/TA controller and Electric/Fire blaster combo, with the blaster focusing on the area attacks. -
Wait - is it over already or is today the last day?

High Explosives HITS you! Explosive Trap power had a 82.50% chance to hit and rolled a 15.10.

OOPS. -
My wp/km tanker has made it (solo and team) to level 12 without being defeated.
My km/wp scrapper (solo) was well acquainted with the Agony of Defeat by level 5.
My archery/TA corrupter (solo) made it to level 6 before the first defeat, and from there to level 14 it's been a Festival of Defeats. In the TO levels she didn't have enough damage output, damage mitigation, or endurance to deal with most of what was thrown at her. DOs helped with damage output, but even with Endurance Reductions slotted... ugh.
With enough of the right inspirations on hand, she's as golden as, well, GG. Without them, though, it's a visit to Flatland.
(Which, incidentally, is an old QQ of mine: is this a City of Heroes/Villains... or a City of Inspirations? Then again, history teaches us that using a Break Free at just the right moment *can* make all the difference in the world.) -
After going through it 1.5 times I gotta say I agree.

5. The new mail system.
4. Various ways to minimize travel time.
3. Power Customization.
2. Power Proliferation.
1. Super Sidekicking.
The forthcoming ability to switch sides is going to be a major Woo Hoo! -
Dual Shields (double the fun).
Solid Gold Dancer Summoning (massive increase in subscriptions).
Imaginary Blast (requires no 'effects', just a few very convincing animations). -

I believe most of them are simply concerned that a game they like and still enjoy to some degree has become less enjoyable and is skewing towards no-longer-enjoyable due to a lack of content/new stuff/shinies/new stimuli.

Actually I think you have it backwards. He's not quiting because of a lack of info, he's quiting most likely because he's bored with the lack of new anything in general. All he's saying is that more information would have convinced him to stay longer.
LIKE THIS! -

Nothing of the sort. I've made multiple trips down to the base of the dam (which is now half a mile underwater...) and back again with nothing but Super Speed.

I use the random costume generator button when I get stuck like that. I don't actually use exactly what they give me but sometimes get some inspiration from the combinations/colours used which then allows me to build a toon cossie I like.
I was doing this just the other day, just idly goofing around to see what would pop up, and BLAMMO: great look for an earth/ice tanker from outer space! Well, almost, but with this instead of that, and switch this to that, and change this color to that, and... hmm, no... not a tanker... an ice/earth dom! From outer space! With this really cool and PERFECT name that's not already taken. Woo hoo! -

as for marketing, im guessing that they aren't marketing now because there isnt much new to market right now
I put it to you, Marketing Team, what would P.T. Barnum do? -

I'd be happy with just a picture of the the crew/guys/people/things working on the game.

The old Faultline WAS a zone monster... if you couldn't fly! I do wish we could revisit it via Ouroboros, though.

Quote:Ah, but they have already nerfed the accuracy of anyone playing a /regen! It's true! I know this cuz both my /regen scrappers miss way too much compared to everyone else except my poor electric/electric scrapper who couldn't hit the broad side of a barn (from the inside). Sometimes I feel like I should file a missing person report on that electric/electric cuz he's been missing since Outbreak...Originally Posted by Ironblade
Are you a noob? The regen set and everyone's accuracy; what else would they nerf?
Uh... oh, yeah. The super secret stealth nerf to /regen - no matter what primary you choose, at a random point between levels 20 and 30 it suddenly becomes AIR MELEE:
1. Whiff - a straightforward single target miss.
2. WHIFF MOAR - a slightly louder single target miss.
3. Oscillating Fan - miss several targets in a narrow cone.
4. What's that Smell? - single target self-disorient.
5. Soothing Breeze - boosts the lassitude of self and team mates with a series of rapid-fire misses.
6. Ceiling Fan - PBAoE, leap up and miss your foe from above!
7. Pageant Wave - here she/he is! MISS/MISSter Paragon City!
8. Birthday Wish - wide cone, very effective vs candles.
9. Dust Away - AoE, thoroughly removes dust and dirt from nearby targets.
Yeah. -

* Costume Update: At long last Kheldian sashes (such as the one worn by Moonfire) will be available for Heroes! To unlock the Kheldian sash for your Hero, simply defeat 5,070,103.5 Contaminated in Recluse's Victory. The spawn rate for Contaminated in Recluse's Victory has been adjusted to one per day (pending sufficient data-mining to determine if this is too many).
* Zone Update: Villains in Recluse's Victory will earn .25 merits for each Contaminated defeated.
* PVP Update/New Zone: Heroes and Villains may now test their mettle against each other in new and exciting ways in the new Shady Acres End Game Zone! Games include Checkers, Old Maid, Go Fish, and (for a cost of only 25 merits per minute) Virtual Pong!
* Villain Hate-age Update: Red-bordered Villain zone loading screens have proven to be too exciting for some Villain players, causing players to create more Villains than anticipated. Thus, all Villain zone loading screens will henceforth be bordered with a more soothing shade of dusty rose. -
Quote:There's no 'points buy' system such as the one you describe in Champions Online. You never have to choose between gaining a new power or upgrading an old one. CO has a set level progression: at certain levels, you gain access to new powers; at other levels, you gain advantage points, or talent points, or another build slot.

He said, "Extrapolate? What's that?"
I told him to look it up in the dictionary.
When he came in for his next lesson, I asked if he'd looked up 'extrapolate'. He said he had. "And what does it mean?" I asked.
"To destroy utterly."
Alas! It did not occur to me, that day so long ago, to show him how to play 'My Generation'. That would have been cool. -
