    I only get BAF lag on like half the servers - the rest are fine, and since the latest patch, I haven't run into any major BAF lag at all.
  2. But isn't that what people already do? Like they mail millions of Inf to their new avatars, or send purple recipes to alts?

    It only shuts off the intro cutscenes - so that means Sister Silicone won't be seen so much, but Marauder will still be doing his big dawg routine on every Lambda run.

    They are.

  6. Mender Silos' plans are a small part of Null's plans.
  7. Blue Steel's favorite vet reward is the 15 month one, as the feathery wings let him look a little bit more like Null.

    I think they're looking for normal NPCs, who are always tougher than flakey tanks.









  9. The reason I don't like SB is because it makes me run into walls - so being able to flag myself as not wanting the movement boost is an awesome fix

    Now they just need to add an option to decline the visual effects of some of the ugly buffs

    The only connection I have to the devs is that I play the game they make - just like you and everyone else
  12. I wonder if there'll be a special costume for the Omega slot, and if it'll be so spectacular that it'll crash the server just by putting it on

    "Tricking"? Where's the deceit?

    It's based on the game direction

    Because the Incarnate system continues to be team focused - if a large section of the player base was soloing, the devs would have designed the system with soloers in mind - or, if they suddenly discovered that a large section of the player base was still soloing after they launched the Incarnate system, they mightn't be continuing to roll out Trials and add new rewards linked to the Trials.

    With all the data the devs had available to them from over 6 years of live server play by thousands and thousands of different players, they designed the Incarnate system to be team focused.

    I don't claim any percentage numbers

    But the amount of 50s being played compared to pre-Incarnate times suggests that quite a few people are enjoying what the devs have offered us from I19 onwards

    I thought gear was stuff that affected your stats?

    Whatever they did in the last patch, they certainly reduced the lag on the BAF - I did 2 on Freedom last night, and the prisoner phase was very smooth.

    The devs have loads of stats from their datamining - and the Incarnate Traisl continue to be rolled out, along with special rewards attached to them - I think that that should perhaps tell you something

    It's cosmetic - no one needs to unlock it

    Who wants to bet that the next 4 slots will have their own tier gear and the Omega slot will have one all its own?
    That might depend on if they have their own slavage and merits - which is quite possible

    Also I do love the 'if we allowed your low level alts to access it, it would be an insult to the art team' line, really Posi, you honestly think that despite people running the content and actually unlocking it that somewhere, someone using this on a level 1 would make the art team so incredibly insulted.
    David Nakayama might turn savage.

    Lisa-Wishes I were not so shy or I would go looking for more people like me..and...pales at the thought..team.
    The devs can't really take into account the shyness levels of some players
    But other players can help the shy ones open up a bit

    But, this does say you need to team at least once to solo.... maybe all us solo types on Victory can meet up and do this
    A group of 8 of you could solo missions together.
