Did you do that on purpose? )-:<


Please understand, if bug reports ever showed results for text errors, this thread wouldn't exist. The instant someone said "you guys have text errors" they'd be laughed off stage and followed with a "just file a bug report or clam up about it, noob."

As it is, this seems to be the only way for us to be heard, jointly proclaiming "we would not amused"




As suggested by someone else earlier in the thread, I will gladly lead an initiative to compile a detailed list of text errors so they can all be corrected in one big update. That is, if you guys can be bothered to make use of it.

That's not the reason that came out of his mouth during the arcs. Which ones were you playing?

In my never-ending quest to antagonize the living biscuits out of irrational thought everywhere, I began to question global channels about just why people so often say "lft BLUEside" or "posi 1 forming" or whatever, but rarely any CoV chatter. When I ask about it, people tell me "I don't play redside." When I pursue the topic, they say "I don't like redside." When I ask them about that, they give me some cookie-cutter responses every time:

• The zones are dull. Yes, exactly like Mercy Island. All of them. There's no fancy district controlled by organized crime in Port Oakes, next to the haunted French fortress, nope. Nerva Archipelago certainly isn't riddled with Hero iconography and arcane overtones lurking right across the waters, no-siree. And St. Martial has no color at all, especially at night!
• The content isn't as good. Wucking fhut!? For every Harvey Maylor that sends you to fight--I wish I was kidding--165 Carnies on the streets, you have an exasperated Doc Buzzsaw who questions what science has wrought. For every Crimson who has you defeat all Malta however many umpteen times, there's a Vernon Von Grun who aspires to cast aside his status of mere lab assistant and become a revered mad scientist. There's no way CoH has better content.

And then, of course, there's this one:

• I don't like being someone's lackey.

This is a sentiment held only by those who have never ever even once played City of Villains. Actually, probably exactly once: before Freedom launched and they naïvely picked Kalinda as their starting contact. Yeah, you're Kalinda's lacky. And you're the patrons' lackeys. And... um... As far as I've been able to determine, that's it. I challenge anyone to find a contact not Kalinda or one of the patrons whom you outright work *for* rather than *with*.

Mr. Bocor doesn't boss you around. He's quite direct about requesting your services and offers to pay you handsomely for your assistance. Lt. Chalmers doesn't boss you around. The Sky Raiders need some work done and they don't care if you're evil; they accept you as a valuable partner. Even Marshal Brass--possibly the most curt and uncompromising character in the game--doesn't boss you around. He needs some jobs taken care of discreetly and he'll work with villains outside of Arachnos if they can keep it under the rug.

Also, you save/kill your clone in Leonard's arc, not D-Mac's. (-:

Pff, that's not how it goes. Try this:

You both did and didn't.

Acid Rain! Ɑ-:<

It wasn't advice, actually. I was joking about the incorrect use of the word "compliment," just like the title states.

Soloing on my new Stalker, I found that the 15-second base recharge of Assassin Strike is maddening. The two or three enemies in addition to the one I kill with my initial Assassin Strike die before it's recharged, and the orange circle disappears before it comes back.

I'm not really at a spot where I can take on larger spawns (only level 18), so the benefits of Assassin's Focus are few and far between. Once I get some Single-Origin recharges in that attack, though, it'll be a different story.
