Quote:I've tried a few of the "expanded universe" efforts - they were ok, but forgettable - and certainly not Star Wars - the only difference between them and the stuff on fanfiction.net was that they were on paper, and not digitalOriginally Posted by BellaStrega
You have no idea what you're talking about.

I'll be honest, my opinion of the expanded universe has not in general been high

Quote:The flood of NPC helpers, lack of timed missions and zero ambushes does kinda make DA "Incanrate lite" - but it's still an awesome zoneOriginally Posted by UberGuy
This content, on the basis of the confirmation that DA is Working As Intended, is easier than the rest of the 1-50 game.

The contact is called "Longbow Scientist", and they're standing in front of a line of civilians on the beach.

Maybe it'd be more flexible to create 2 totally different versions of each boss, rather than apply scaling to one standard version?

Swap the wolf out with the G.Shep model and you have police dogs for the PPD.

They made another pass for I21 too - Atlas park has a lot more going on sound-wise now.

Quote:There's certainly some sexual tension between them.Originally Posted by MajorDecoy
Well, given the last thing Silos says in that cutscene, it seems like the animosity doesn't go both ways between the two.

Quote:Woodsman could use it - or they could revive Shadowhunter.Originally Posted by dugfromthearth
could be a new group
but I would hope warriors and carnies
carnies because animals fit thematically
warriors because they are so boring they really need something, and the natural animal allies would fit -
Quote:That's what I was pointing outOriginally Posted by BrandX
Okay. Let me get this right...
You never ran an itrial.
You just got your last level shift today, which is a week after the new Dark Astoria and solo path was released.
And you start the thread of with...
"First of all, the Incarnate Thread rate-of-income in Dark Astoria is garbage. It really is; takes forever."
So either you're really bad at showing sarcasm over message threads, or you're idea of takes forever is skewed.

The thing that I'm most interested in for Beast Mastery is which character or enemy group will also get it?

Quote:That would be cool, but it might need a lot of extra work to try and balance each zone enemy groups and challenges for 1-50 - but they do seem to be taking a much more theme focused approach to new zones and zone revamps - like Atlas Park, First Ward and Dark Astoria have a lot mroe depth and variety than most of the older zones.Originally Posted by Arcanaville
One thought I've often had was that I think it would be cool if the different game zones were not primarily level-centric but theme-centric.

Quote:It seems like they picked up a last minute bug with them, and decided to pull them rather than delay I22.Originally Posted by Darth_Khasei
I don't get this part because they were/are working just fine in BETA and have for weeks now...Oh well.

Quote:I find 50s lots of funOriginally Posted by dugfromthearth
the joke is that you are playing a level 50 which is dull and tedious
when you could be playing a level 16 and having a ton of fun

As you can see in the picture, I have everything I need for my last Level Shift, and I didn't get it in Incarnate Trials.

... wait, the Leprechaun pet seriously gives a 10% buff to Influence drops? I thought that was a joke.

Yes and they LOWERED the rates.

Quote:Our hair hasn't been animated for months - when exactly is that bug going to be fixed?Originally Posted by Zwillinger
We still have to rapidly (within 24 hours response) iterate if there's an issue that's wrecking mass havoc on live servers, and adjust our schedules accordingly.

Silos was one of the more challenging bits to do, and not just because of his hair
He's an important character, but they've never released any pictures or concept art of him, so there's only the stylized art style of in-game model as a guide when conveerting him into another art style.
He has dark brows, deep-set eyes, a sharp-ish nose, average-ish chin and mouth - but while his eyes are green, his complexion isn't the usual pale/fair one that goes with green eyes, and black hair is also not so usual with them either - so is his hair dyed, or is it a combination that's more frequent in whatever time period the body is from?
Is he naturally tanned, or did he get that way from his travels through time?
Is his body over a million years old?
Is it from the past, present or future?
Does he prefer to travel back to Prussia to pick a new body?
Does he switch his consciousness between bodies to avoid the effects of the Carbon Law, and is sometimes forced to take one that he mightn't be totally happy with?
Or does he have clones of one that's he regards as his ideal body?
There are lots of things to think of when interpreting someone like that

Quote:There's also an echo of Galaxy City you can access too, if you want to get the bagdes and plaques there.Originally Posted by Gremalkyn
Thank you for that.
I wondered if that was what "Echo" meant, as in, an echo of the past. -
Quote:The DA entry bug is a good example of that - it only triggers when there's more than one instance of DA, which is much more likely on the live servers than on beta.Originally Posted by Xzero45
There's always something that pops up because tons more people play on Live than Beta, therefore the chance of stumbling upon certain bugs rises by a lot due to being in a much more active and diverse player environment.
For some reason, the zone selection window only pops up if you're going up the tentacle shaft, not down it - so if you do get stuck there, you just need to head back up it a short way and the window will appear. -
It gives a 10% Inf buff
-
There could be some tweaks once they datamine the effects of DA on the live servers.

Green-lighting that kind of budget for that kind of source material was insane
