Oooooh. Now I want clown summoning! Clowns are scary.

I should probably post again. I didn't want to sound unappreciative or too down on this content earlier. Yeah, its kind of dark and unsatisfying, but if its going to lead into a storyline that leaves me feeling I accomplished something and made a difference in these peoples lives, I can live with that. On the whole, I really like the design and implementation of First Ward.
I'd like to second an earlier post saying the text bubbles scroll by too fast. One of the reasons I don't like to team is everyone is in a race to get to the end. I want to savor the content. I want to read and understand the storyline. Without a storyline you may as well reduce it to just the math, a random number generator and who can click fastest. The dialog comes far too fast in the entire zone as far as I'm concerned. Slow Down!
To be clear, I was playing a hero and I like to stay "in character" with his decisions. (This is another reason I don't like to team. It sometimes pisses people off that I don't always do the "smart" thing.) There is no way in hell my guy would have ever enslaved Katie for any reason. Even if it meant stopping the furies would be harder, even if she was treating him like crap. And I didn't like having no option. Not one little bit. First enslaving her and then not going back for her was deeply disturbing. I appreciate you were doubtless *trying* to provoke an emotional response. Well, you got one. And not one I enjoyed. -

I loved the new content, but I agree I have the feeling I left a lot undone. I especially don't like the thought of what I did to Katie and leaving her like that. What happened to Makara? I went and found him and he's asking if I find the witch who stole his spirit sight, he'd appreciate it. So many unanswered questions. And it did end rather abruptly. I was waiting for another contact or a summation or something. This definitely needs a continuation. -

*I* want to know what happened to Katie Douglas / Seer 1381. Plugging her back into the Network CREEPED ME OUT BIG TIME ... and then, she's used and discarded without so much as a backwards glance!
Good job, Devs! -

I still don't quite understand the situation though. One team, a group of people, got grumpy about your KB and now you won't team with anyone?
I did use my empath to team for the first time in almost a year a few days ago and had an enjoyable session, but the "experts" seem unwilling to leave me alone. They see in search that I don't team with "experts" or "power gamers" and think I need to team with anyone that demands it or that they are owed some explanation of my choices in teammates. That I should basically shut up and listen and take their wise advice. I suppose I'll open up for teaming again at some point, but I really don't want to be harassed right now. And if I don't want to be harassed, this would appear to be my best option. -

hmm.. If you put your self on Global hide on all functions none will ever see that you are online. And you basically isolated yourself. It really works

I want an option to play solo. Really what I want is a way to isolate myself from Tells.
About a year ago I was playing a blaster. Every power I had caused knockback. I got chewed out really badly for causing knockback by the team I was on. So badly, in fact, I stopped teaming. Of course some people just couldn't leave me alone and insisted on pestering me to join their team or tell them why I refused to team. It got so bad I finally cancelled my account and left CoH for several months. When I finally did return I still refused to team and eventually worked my blaster to 50 solo. Finally someone convinced me to simply refuse to team with "experts". It seems even that isn't good enough since now I'm getting Tells asking why I wouldn't want to team with someone who knows what they are doing.
What the problem boils down to is people who feel a need to share their "expertise" with me unsolicited. I want a way to Ignore All.
No slight intended toward the good segment of the populace, but I'm really tired of being berated, yelled at and told what I'm doing wrong constantly. I just want a little diversion for a few hours. I DO NOT take my play as desperately serious as some. ITS JUST A GAME.
