You have me between a rock and a hard place here. Play content I hate, or don't play.
Just think of it as like the DP and DS early access for GR prepurchases

Quote:And if they use the new reward table tech from the Praetorian zone events, soloers will always get something for their contribution.Originally Posted by Aura_Familia
The trials will probably work like the rikti raids, thus giving solo player SOME way to get them. However, beyond that I don't expect any other solo Incarnate Content anytime soon.

The devs must hate solo huggers

The hands seem to be normal ones - or maybe the claws are just invisible

It looks like it's got a full fur texture for the body too:

Its a SHAReD hug

Is that a group hug, or a one-on-one one hug?

Quote:I'm pretty sure that's just a rumor based on the way the Praetorian zone events work - but it'd be a cool idea, as it'd give some high level content for the loyalists.Originally Posted by Benchpresser
I wish I could find the quote now but I remember when the Devs first said that the "raid on Mother Mayhem's hospital" would be the 1st Incarnate trial type event, they said you could play either side (loyal or resistance).

Quote:They seem totally ok with teaming up for that kind of thingOriginally Posted by Zombie Man
But good reason is being ground into dust over misinformation and demands and an incessant lobbying (which violates forum policy) that infects just about every thread on the Incarnate System and future content.

If they cycle through all the TFs, then I think we will get all 4 Shadow Shard ones as WSTs eventually

Quote:As they've already set up the Winter Realm, the Rikti Mothership and the Halloween Banners to allow people to join in even when solo, and added new tech in I19 with the Praetorian events to give out rewards based on individual player contribution to the events, then it's quite possible that the Incarnate Trials could follow the same pattern, and not require teaming to take part in them.Originally Posted by Techbot Alpha
And even then, that's only a guess by people. There is, as of yet, no confirmed solo-able content coming in I20 that can allow for that.

A month is pretty reasonable - it's not like there's a time limit on accessing the content - it'll still be there, no matter how long someone takes

Something I think a few people are missing is that the Alpha slot is based on IO sets, which Positron also had a hand in designing.
After Tier 1, all the other tiers are simply a bonus - and the more tiers you get,m the more bonuses you get - but they're not required for the Incarnate content at all.
To access the Incarnate content, you just need to run Mender Ramiel's arc - and if you want to avoid the big debuff on the Alpha TFs, you'll need 12 Shards for the 1st Tier enhancement - but after that, you don't need to do anything else - the 2nd Tier enhancement is an optional bonus - the 3rd Tier enhancement and level shift is an optional bonus, and the 4th Tier enhancmenet is an optional bonus.
Just like an IO set, the more parts you have, the more bonuses you get, but you don't need them to play the game - you can slot 2 parts of "Ragnarok", for example, and not bother with the other 4 parts - you'll miss the bonuses they bring, but it won't make the game any harder for you - just like you can slot the Tier 1 Alpha and not bother with the other 3 Tiers - you'll still get access to the Incarnate content, and it won't be any harder for you. -
Quote:In I19, the devs added some new tech for the Praetorian zone events that can track how much someone has contributed to an event, and then give them reward choices based on it - it's quite possible they'll use somthing similar for the Incarnate Trials, so people can join in even if they're not on a team, and still get something from it.Originally Posted by Clouded
That's why I was asking that poster for more info as to why they believe the trials are soloable. Just trying to curtail rumors which is probably a futile effort.
They've said, for example, that the BAF raid needs 12-24 players - they've not said that those 12-24 players have to be on teams - just like the Mothership and Winter Realm Raids support solo play. -

I know they're aiming for an early February launch of 19.5, but putting this up on Test during a 2XP weekend is not going to make it that easy to get together a Test team to try out the WST system until next week

It'll get more attention when it's the WST

But as far as I know, he doesn't have any legs to clip through his man-skirt - it's instead of his legs, rather than covering real legs, like player avatar skirts do.

Options that aren't appealing to a large percentage of people add no value to said large percentage of people. When you've got a choice of developing something that serves ten or ten thousand, you go for the broader audience.

MM pet customization coould give a similar effect without the game-breaking balance problems
