  1. Hi all, just returned to the game after 4+ years away. Also just transferred all my toons to Virtue from another server.

    The question I have is, is there an all Defender....all Controller....or a combination of the 2 Supergroup on Virtue?..........My favorite AT's.


    Thanx

    This is sad.

    I'm sorry, but I don't get people like that. Don't they read? Didn't they do the tutorial that explained how contacts work, how enhancements and combining enhancements work, and all that?

    If they didn't, then it's on their own heads; the MA has nothing to do with that. The normal content is not hidden. If one does the tutorial, it's all pretty obvious.

    There comes a point when personal responsibility and taking the time to actually see what the game does comes into play.

    And do we really need yet another thread on this topic? What's wrong with the other "New player experience" thread that is already hashing over just this?

    They see the endless broadcasts in Atlas for teams forming and join them. Getting sucked into AE farms where they level fast and have no clue how the game works. ::sigh::

    Best solution isn't removing the AE but instead removing it from Atlas, Galaxy, Kings row, Mercy, and Port Oaks. And having the auto contact to the AE bumped up to happen around level 15 - 20. That way those who want to can still make their way to an AE to play but it doesn't automatically suck new players in until they have learned there is more to the game.

    Remove AE from low level zones solution:

    Mac pack with mission teleporter. Get on a team, leader puts mission up, tp to mission door (AE in PI for instance), when finished for the day log toon there and leave him there. The end.
  3. Removing the AE buildings from the low level zones will be useless.

    Solution: buy the Mac pack, get on a team, have the leader put the mission up, tp to mission door...........done. Log toon out at that AE and leave him there. The end.
  4. Beta vet here and I agree with ya Lorock............totally.

    It would seem that not everyone agrees he is the plague to end all plagues.

    Hitler and Stalin were easily among the top 20 most influential men in history, but they were still the plague to end all plagues. Not that I'm comparing Jack to murderers of millions upon millions of innocent people, but the point still stands

    Wow..........over a video game!.........Some of you people seriously need to get out more often and find yourselves a life. To compare a developer of a video game to those people..........wow.
  6. Whatever everyone speculates here, remember one thing. Look at the page with the trailer for the expansion. Look at the bottom of the page. Cryptic logo=Cryptic game engine.

    Keep that in mind.

    The official word on this from the devs is, I believe............roll another toon. And when that one gets done, roll another. Do the same old content, over, and over, and over, and over..........well you get the idea.

    The amusing thing about this kind of criticism is that the critic invariably points to WoW or Everquest or some such and says "See, they have an end game." It's amusing because the "end game" in those games involves running the same 2-3 high level dungeons over and over and over and over with the SAME character. The measure of status of a guild is "we have end-game dungeons X, Y, and Z on farm".

    Apparently, running through the mid levels ten times is repetitive where killing Onyxia for the twenty-fifth time is not...

    Actually don't play WoW...........never have. Just this one. So my post comes not from what others have "said" to me, rather, what I have experienced here.

    It would make sense to do so, since their current engine is licensed from the competition, and could theoretically be yanked/denied at some point.

    And in that same vein, I wonder if NCSoft pays some sort of "rent" (for lack of a better term) for the use of the game engine. If that is the case, CoX subscribers are payin for CO!.............LOL

    After the buzz wore off from watching the Going Rogue trailer and now being mired in anticipatory glee, something occurred to me. Statesman and Desdemona are looking at the view screen which is displaying another city full of heroes and villains that "looks like paradise". And that other city happens to be ruled by an evil Statesman. Coincidence or a little jab at the competition?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Jeez the people here really stretch when lookin to diss good ole' Jack don't ya? Just kill off Statesman and get this whole..."we should PWN Jack thing" over once and for all.

    Move one people. Just enjoy playin CoX.
  11. The question I have for those who do not want any open world content is why have such big zones then? If everything is instanced (which it almost is), then make one zone a line up of contacts, a line up of doors, one WW/black market, one trainer, one base portal, one arena, one of each kind of store.....now that I think about it, just make IP the only zone in the game and put each monster in each corner of the map. Just seems like a huge waste to me to have a huge zone when no one does anything in it besides travel through it.
  12. For the time designated............OPEN PVP with Paragon open to villians through the pvp zone gates and the Rogue Isles open to heroes via the same...........woot!!
  13. Ya gotta wonder why there is no villian shot. Oh thats right, no one plays villians!............LOL......j/k

    pvp, at least villainside, is how the non-lazy non-brain-dead non-i-want-easy-mode-nao crowd entertains itself.

    only because 95% of the CoX population is slightly brain damaged and cant form a cohesive strategy when faced by a larger group in a zone

    [/ QUOTE ]

    wow..........I mean wow.........I suspect the poster is one of the people that alot of these posts were referring to about the unpleasant atmosphere in PVP zones.
  15. This means Cryptic has no obligations and loyalties to CoX, and can take what is great about CoX...improve on it, add more,........
  16. Do I need to uninstall the old version first before installing the new one? And if I do, will it mess up my loading screens to the game (I mean like not having any)?
  17. The Rikti invading forces con to whatever level you are. So everyone can enjoy the fight!
  18. no...........base raids, yes.......other pvp......no
  19. I want the emote that war witch uses in pocket D.

    The one where she is holding a cup/mug and sipping it.
  20. If the buff thing does not include the ability to give your pets inspirations as the master minds do, they at least we should be able to give temp power pets inspys because in CoV u can.
  21. States said "BUT not right away"............

    So that means they wanna leave all the new cool stuff in CoV as a selling point and somewhere down the line (who knows when) CoH may get it.

    I'm thinkin I6 is nuthin more than ED and system stuff so CoV and CoH work together. That may explain why they have said nuthin bout what is in it. I mean it could possibly be all we "get" is the ED nerf, and they know the hard time they got when they introduced it.
