I would agree if something was broke, but since nothing was broke, nothing needed fixing

[/ QUOTE ]
You are either being disingenuous or else are very clueless. There was a massive exploit there, and I'm really glad it's fixed now.

[/ QUOTE ]

I know exactly how it worked, and in my opinion nothing was wrong.

[/ QUOTE ]

Then you have a very clueless and completely out-of-touch opinion.

[/ QUOTE ]

Please tell me why that is so, because my opinion isn't the same as yours?

I forgot your opinion and outlook on the game is the only one that counts.

You're entitled to your opinion, even when it's wrong

In the Devs outlook, it was broken, so they fixed it. The exploit people were using was not what was intended by the Devs, and they have said as much. That is why it is called an exploit.

To the Devs, broken means "not working as intended". If they intended for people to have an "Instant 50", they'd put a button in the Character Creation screens with something like "Start this character at level 50".

Whether your opinion agrees with the game designers opinion or not is a moot point.

I'd quote my Dad's comment on opinions, but I don't want this to be interpreted as an attack on another poster because that is not my intent. I like my forum and game accounts and prefer keeping them active instead of banned.

[/ QUOTE ]

See that is all that needed to be said, it is THEIR game, and they didn't want it to perform that way.

The instant 50 thing is a exaggeration, but was sure nice to make the 36-50 lvl's go fast :0 hate to see it leave.

Not concerning the "Real Numbers" but forgot something in the patch notes:

"Welcome to Vanguard" Mission is broke, doesn't give any Inf/XP

[/ QUOTE ]

After last weekend, nope, it's been fixed. Yeah, it's kind of been fixed the way I fixed my cats, but it needed fixing as much as my cats needed fixing.

[/ QUOTE ]

It needed fixing back in the closed beta when we told the devs about it. However that is neither here nor there.

I am enjoying this new feature. Now I just need to figure out how to actually use it.

Having the ability to take 7 lvl 35 toons, and get them to 50 in less than 5 hours, with only 1 level 50 toon on the team, IS considered broken.

Opinion does not equal fact.

This whole Debt Badge thing disturbs me. I try to avoid getting debt but some yahoos play all the time like debt doesnt matter. Why do you have to encourage this behavior?

[/ QUOTE ]

Why does it matter to you if I want to have debt to get a badge?

I know most if not all of you probably do not know me (General Devastation/Pure Devastation/Leathal PMS/ and several others on many different servers.

I just booked my room, just live 240 miles south of San Jose, anyways. I will be there with one of the younger ones in tow, really looking forward to this.

ANy Plans to get together earlier in the day Friday?

Lvl 6?

I can live with this.

Lvl 35 was idiotic before. The non-powerlevelers may not get that, but 6 I can live with.

[/ QUOTE ]

Could you please explain your reasoning here?

7 months... and all we get for a lvl 50 pvp zone is a rehash of Atlas Park? What a joke. I'm glad I didn't renew my account.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm also glad you didn't renew it.

Most badge requirements and slick ways to earn them are discovered by players. They are usually not confirmed by devs until it is so common knowledge that they are not giving the information away. So the best thing you can do for us is prove your point right or wrong. There is no cheat guide to give you the answer on this one. You will have to take the reins and figure it out yourself. Just remember to post your results on the forums so all of us can benefit from them.

I spent 1.5 hours yesterday with my son doing LB mission's in Warburg, He was lk'ed to me the entire time. We did 13 seperate missions, I still have NO counter for a Mentoring badge. Something is not working right, a simple, You have to be recieving damage/giving damage/earning XP, or whatever, I am simply looking for an answer, no cheating.

[ QUOTE ]
If you have a lackey, you mean you would actually waste 10 hours of game time just to get the Boss/Mentor badge? Run missions! I have 2 of the Boss/Mentoring badges and I can tell you I rarely lakey anyone (not because I don't want to but because I usually have even level teams and it's usually a friend or SVG mate who wants in on the action). I don't think it's bugged and should be working as intended (i.e. time is calculated by gaining XP) I mean seriuosly, what kind of boss are you if all you're doing is teaching your lacky how to be lazy? (In the RW you'd be fired, right!?!)

[/ QUOTE ]

My main issue, is that no one with the actuall knowledge will give an answer. The GM's say the CAN'T tell me the answer, Posi has not replied to my PM.

I just want to know exactly what the requirement is, either way.

Like I said above, opinions on my methods for obtaining badges don't concern me, I am just wanting to know what the requirments are.

Mentoring badges, do you have to be earning XP to get them? Can you sit in a mission with your Lackey next to you for extended periods of time and still earn the badge's?

Thank you for your answer.

[/ QUOTE ]

Still trying to get an answer from a REDNAME on this so I can know for sure how this works.

Spent 10+ hours yesterday with a LK, and no badge, no place holder, nothing.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, were you standing there in a mission without moving for those 10 hours?
In that case, it would seem to be a rather good answer to your question.

The question then becomes: is this *intended* behavior, or is this a bug that doesn't accumulate mentor time?

[/ QUOTE ]

I know what the intended behavoir is, problem is, no one can confirm what gets you the badge. SOme people say you have to be activly gaining XP, while others say just siut in a mission with a LK.

I really do not care about others opinions on how I am trying to obtain the badge, I care what exactly is needed to gain the badge, how or in what fashion are you able to go about getting it.

Still looking for some direction on this. I sent Petition in game, and the best they could tell me was I did not qualify for the badge (1st one), I know that. I proceded to ask what is the criteria, and was told, "We can not tell you that" (or something close to those words)

Please, can a Redname or someone give us the lowdown on the requirments on how the Mentoring badges can be obtained.

Thank you for your response in this matter.

[/ QUOTE ]

You have to be earning xp it seems. I had a lackey with me to auto heal us as we took damage overnight. All we obtained was healing and damage, I didn't get my lackey badges.

[/ QUOTE ]

See I have folks telling me that, and I have folks saying that they stood at the door for an entire night, night after night and have 5 Mentoring badges.

I just want a definitive answer from a Redname Thank you.

In short, I fail to see why everyone is so upset over having threads about mods removed when the mods are eather blatent cheets or aren't needed anyway, and against the TOS to boot.

[/ QUOTE ]

I won't quote all of that, just because it makes what I'm posting harder to read. I just have one question- I want an in game clock that doesn't require a command or hunting down the right npc. <--That's what I got told when I suggested it through the correct channels, or "go buy a clock."

I want to be able to glance up and see the correct, real world time. It's simple, and quite possibly moddable, and affects no one's game play. I don't even want to put this on everyone's UI, I just want it as an option. Please explain to me how "I don't need this." Who are you to judge what I might find necessary or not? Sure, you've got an opinion, but that doesn't make you right.

I had always thought that it was pretty rude to tell other people what they should and should not be doing with their characters. Turns out I was right.

[/ QUOTE ]

You're getting all worked up because they wont let you have a MOD that shows the real world time in game.......

Unbelievable...

The trick we used was to TP Foe. We TP foe'ed the vines into 3 groups, once there were enough total (we had to kill 56) in the bunchs each group killed t heir bunch, and now onto the AV.

For the AV we all hung inside our one MM's Bubbles while the 3 MM's pets went to town on the AV.
