When i used to smoke, I'd take devilish delight in telling my PuG members on Freedom that I was having a short break to 'go and smoke a f-g. BRB' - combined with the US informal definition of 'to smoke sb', I'm sure it caused some raised eyebrows.

Eco.

It's not the discussion I have a problem with, it's the debate and attacking Cherokee for his/her opinion. In my experience, threads like these always turn into arguments - and often times for decent reasons. But this one looks like a bunch of people attacking one another for the slightest thing. If anyone had said anything derogatory, I'd understand - be upset, but understand. But no one has and that sort of makes this whole thing rather silly.

Still, yeah, I can get behind TonyV's idea. Make the weekend about the players and the developers, rather than the loot harvesting. 2x XP doesn't benefit the most populous servers when there are lockouts (although AFAIK it didn't happen, but I have my own pet theory on that).

This red status appears to go away after a certain time, or is it a restart of the game? Not sure about the mechanism here. Thanx.

Next I will try my mission teleporter (when it recharges in an hour or so) though I wanted to find a route to it myself. I'm not far away as the crow flies. This mission is called "Protect Steel Canyon Bank" and I would suppose I'd need specific directions for that mission. The underground parking garage, suggested above, wasn't the right place.

I speak fluent gibberish (as if you couldn't have guessed that).. so here's the translation:

Issue 16 shall feature several new and innovative methods of Customizing both your character's appearance and powers... here follows two of them:

* Enhanced Boob Slider: The boob slider will now have greater range and flexibility. Those of you who have wanted to make young girl characters (I'll refrain from making any guesses about WHY you'd want to do that you sick.. ahem...) will be able to take the Ironing Board option. For those who thought the max slider setting just wasn't quite big enough, you can now opt for the Goodyear size setting. At the largest setting you gain access to the new Pontoons Power Pool.

Pontoons:

6th level: Strategic Padding: Small Resist Damage against smashing, negative and cold damage. When hit for cold based damage the padding grows defensive spikes that can poke at the opponent for minimal damage. (think about it)

6th level: Torso Tortion Trauma: Twisting in a sharp motion you can strike at your opponent for moderate smashing damage and knockback. Some opponents may be stunned with a happy smile on their face by this attack.

14th level: Macy's Day Parade Float: New Travel Power allows for much faster travel in the water, with impressive waves that will wash up on shore and do damage and knockback to opponents. Also the user can inhale deeply and float up into the air. This aspect of the travel power CAN be faster than Fly or slower than Hover depending on wind velocity at the time. Can not control direction. This power requires at least one 6th level power from this set to be possessed first.

20th level: Inhale... Exhale...: As long as the player keeps up the breathing exercise most males in PBAoE range will act mesmerized, not doing anything but staring unless attacked. During this time they will also drool, so if left in this state long enough, enemies will have a chance of slipping and falling once they do start moving again. Females in this area of effect will act as though Taunted. Note: For some unknown reason some females will act mesmerized and some males only roll their eyes and mutter "tacky" under their breath. This power requires the 14th level Pontoon power be taken first.

* Increased Anatomical Dynamics: The physics engine has undergone extensive enhancements with regards to certain anatomical features and the effects of blows, trauma, jumping, flying, impact and the occassional shimmying. To put it in layman's terms the game just got boob-physics. You thought too many people liked to jump up and down when they got bored waiting at mission entrances? Just wait.

Or they'll probably add in another system that the player base will enjoy but like bases, will be half done and then fans of that system will get the proverbial middle finger from the devs again.

I see you've changed your mind... again.
