I usually don't get involved in wild speculation but a while ago--and I might be misremembering this--there was talk that the devs wanted to change the fact that accounts that were not in the beta could still access the Character Creator but that it would take some work and the effort wasn't worthwhile. With the addition of staff, it just seemed like the opportunity was there.
However, I think doing that is not just a waste of work but is counterproductive; it's a teaser when a new Issue is in beta and generates activity and excitement in the player base and the media. And I would think it would be a collosal marketing blunder to do something like that for this particular Issue, considering the hubbub about other games in development.
So I wouldn't be surprised if they did it. -
Quote:I know that, but I've been expecting them to work out a way to lock out the log-in so that only those accounts with beta access can even get that far. I wouldn't be surprised if they finally made real effort to do so with this particular Issue.Access to the character creator is allowed regardless of whether you've got beta access or not. It's just anything past the character creator that's covered by the "NDA." That being said I can't get past the login server (it's telling me it's down) so I haven't been able to play with the colors yet.

Quote:Did you ever try Firefox?
Fine. I tried to be nice, but everyone had to come say, "Get FireFox!" Ya know what? Screw FireFox. I have no use for it.
I HATE when people attempt to shove something they like down my throat. Just because YOU don't like IE doesn't mean other people don't.
My prefered browser, Maxthon, has a WONDERFUL built in ad blocking system. I have YET to see a browser that can match it out of the box. And yes, I can stop scripts with it, too.
I wasn't going to say anything like that. Now I have. I hope you're all happy.
I used Maxthon for a while but it crashed a lot and slowed down my computer.
I used to use Internet Explorer because it used to do what I wanted and worked well. Then IE7 came along and won't let me remove things that it wants to do that I can't stand.
I switched to Firefox and it works and does what I want and doesn't do what I don't want. My only gripe is that I have to install a bunch of add-ons from third parties to get functionality that I think are basic usability concerns and I'm a little leery of that. I haven't seen that kind of customization available from IE.
Learn to relax. 5 cents, please. -
Install Firefox from Mozilla.org. It's free.
Generally, having both Internet Explorer and Firefox on your computer at the same time shouldn't be a problem. They will play the "Pick me! Pick me!" game with you, though, as they both want to be your default browser. Those little nag boxes can be disabled and you can switch which you want to be set as your prefered browser whenever you want.
The greatest benefit of Firefox is that you can download many, many add-ons to customize your browser--some more useful than others, like Stylish. -

The Safeguard Tour is post-poned due to maintenance. Stay tuned for further developments.

Wolfie, we've started but you can join us at any time.

I'm on a different character right now, but I'm just waiting for the person I'm helping to log on.

If you don't have a second account of your own, the best options, as always, is to post on your server forum that you are looking for help with that. There are enough good people willing to help that you shouldn't have to wait very long and the high-visibility discourages thieves. Just don't do it with someone who doesn't post on the forum.

You can just type:
/toggle pet
That toggles the Pet window open and closed.
Or, to make a macro, type:
/macro Pet "$$toggle pet"
Or:
Open the Options window (Hit the backslash and the letter "o" keys); select the "General" tab (the first tab); scroll to the second section marked "Window" and "Enable" the last option in that section, "Show Pet Window Option".
Then open your Team window by clicking the word "Team" on the border of your chat window (or hit the backslash and the letter "t" keys), then click the word "Pets" in the border area of the Team window". -
I'm going to be helping someone with some Safeguard badging tonight, (Tuesday). We are expecting to start some time betwen 6:30 and 7:00 Eastern, but it's on their schedule so it depends on when they can get on. This will be done for no Exp because we want to get this done as quickly as possible, but we'll have to do Radio Missions to get to the Safeguard Mission; side missions in the Safeguards might be done, depending on whether we feel like it or not. Let me know if you're interested, we can accept up to six more characters per Safeguard.
For certain, I can get:
Atlas Park
Steel Canyon
Talos Island
The following will be random as my characters are at the border level:
Kings' Row
Skyway
Independence Port
The only ones I cannot get for certain at this time:
Brickstown
Founders' Falls -
Quote:Or you could just check in that drop down list and check what the GMT offset difference would be. For example, I am in Eastern time, which is a -5 hour offset. Pacific time is a -8 hour offset. The difference is -3 hours so Pacific time is 3 hours earlier than my time (subtract three hours from my current time to get Pacific time).Since I was able to change the time display in my user CP to reflect my time zone, it would have been nice if someone in Pacific Timezone posts something that is going to happen and it automatically translates the time for the timezone I have set in my User CP so when I look at the post I see it as what time it would be in my timezone not what it is in Pacific.
How's that for a long run on sentence?
Now we just need to get people to post their time zone consistently when they post things that are time sensitive. -

You found someone who seemed to be similar to yourself: Someone with fairly specific criterium/criteria for teaming. Context.

With the current hide function and the indication that many people use it, searching could be considered quite inaccurate. The in-game search should not be used as a serious metric for gauging population.

Quote:You freaking rule!Check out this post here. If you got Firefox, or a browser with a capability to alter style sheets, you can fix it yourself.
But your image broke the forum, slightly. -
I'd like the alternate animation for Haymaker (at 0:26) as an option for Radiant Strike.

As much as I hate to interrupt such great and inaccurate flaming, there have been some problems acknowledged with at least two servers, Protector and Champion, and the West Coast group, in general, had some rough times, briefly, this weekend. Whether it has been too widespread or excessively severe, I'll leave to the remnants of the smoldering thread.

It's completely personal preference. With the XP toggle now, I do it with all my characters, Heroes and Villains. Before that, I would run with debt to do as much as I could, including manipulating the two story arc limit for Heroes.
