How do you get that "level 20 soloable arc is similar to multi-team Trials" thing?

Quote:Quite a few of the Praetorian storylines are now starting to run towards the asylum - the Seer network is just about the last part of the loyalist dictatorship that we haven't smashed yet, and First Ward has set up a pretty epic potential Incarnate Trial at Mother Mayhem's lair.*** SPOILERS ***
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. -
Don't they change powers quite a lot? Or stuff like Defiance for Blasters? I know they've changed MoG a bit, and they did something with Kheldians in I21 - and they've got something different planned for Dominators in an upcoming Issue. Plus, stuff like making the Fitness pool inherent and adding a new power to the travel pools and changing the level you can get them at seem to be quite big changes too.
And the way they give out free respecs quite frequently with power changes kinda implies that the changes are big enough to make some players consider changing their power choices and slotting. -
Quote:I'll play your arc tomorrow, and rate it based on campness, not on rewardsAnd what about those of us who actually wrote a fun campy story that revolved around an extension of an in-game villain group?
Seriously, I have had to adjust it before and now I'm just going to delete the story because it's not worth it anymore to deal with it.
The story is "The Supa Dupa Cookie Caper". The premise of the story was originally a group of extra tough Supa Trolls kidnapped a girl scout troop and stole their cookies. Supa Dupa Trolls were SS/Regen custom Lieutenants (made to mimic the existing Supa Trolls found in Skyway, but with the added threat of getting back up). I had made a second story arc to explain their origin even and put some work into actually explaining them and why they were amped up Supa Trolls. When they nerfed the XP for having only one enemy type, I reluctantly added minions and bosses even though it made them less like the Villain group they were emulating. The mission did give (probably too) good XP when it was all Lieuts. I knew that nobody would run it at all if I left it as all Lieuts after the change since the XP would not be worth the risk. (The explanation arc hasn't been available for a while since I never bothered to change that one and it got banned and I didn't feel like bothering to change it)
And now they won't give XP after reviving. So I am left with a choice: Keep them as is to preserve the story and wind up pissing off anyone who plays it because they all get back up and give no extra xp to make up for it; or I remove their revive power and lose the whole point of the group. They're Supa DUPA Trolls. Not very Dupa if they don't revive.
So yeah, just gonna delete the story. Whatever, thanks exploiters for ruining my campy story.

The writers do a pretty good job of balancing creativity and continuity - like the new Atlas Park content.

The "the devs made it like that" excuse won't wash - in somethign as large and as complex as an MMO, there's no way they can cover every possible way that players might try and exploit the game - so just because "the devs made it that" way doesn't eman that usign it as an exploit is the intended use for it.

Any system where people can't choose who leads them is morally wrong.

Quote:I have no arcsSo rewards do matter. You want AE for your friends exclusive use. Farm missions have not cluttered anything up. It is hard drive storage, there is plenty left. It isnt even sequential access, so the farm dont slow down access. You want the devs to tie a pork chop around your neck to get the dog to play with you. Get this...most of us dont want to play your poorly written "story" arc. We want to advance our toons and try different combinations and builds.
