Went to their site and got as far as "Marvel Heroes combines core gameplay elements of Diablo ..... then stopped reading and left the site.

So if they are no longer taking payments, what happens to those that are VIP now, but would normally have a payment come out, say tomorrow? Should they be removed from VIP?

Just because trollers want Dark Miasma does not mean they will get it. Or at least probably not in its current form. No harm is being inflicted on someone by not giving them what they want. By your logic people that want to be able to 1 shot AVs are being harmed because they are not allowed to do so. Also this imagined harm is not coming from people on the forums that like the current version of Dark Miasma, it is coming from the devs that have not ported the set, probably due to balance reasons.

And yes, spine players do want, or at the least are willing to accept, weak single target damage in exchange for AoE. If you want high single target damage, play another set.

Just because you say everyone knows something does not make it true. Everybody knows this. Believe it or not, you can make the choice to play SS. I play mine all the time and hardley ever bother with Rage and I do just fine. No harm has come to me so far.

And the senator replies "Hah, that is a trick question. I have not stopped beating my wife unless you count the time Im not around her."

When dealing with +4 bosses (the best setting for inf/min), they will tear you appart even with capped resists unless you have decent defense numbers.

So you dont understand why recharge is so popular but the best farm you found buy a large margin has someone that gives you more recharge.

Also, you may want to rethink your stance on not fighting bosses. I have tested every +1-4 with and without bosses at x8 difficulty and the one that gave the best inf per min was +4x8 with bosses. At least for my ss/fire ymmv

Why should others have to work harder for your bad choices

RMT spam would be a big issue if free accounts were allowed to send tells. I dont see that changing. I can remember just a few years back when you could not go 2 min without getting spammed with tells and your mailbox was constanly full with crap.

On the plus side, anyone can play the game, figure out they like it, then spend the smallest amount of cash they can spend and unlock everything you mentioned above except for cha slots.

As far as that goes, I think we should go the same route most F2P games go and do 2 per server, not 2 total.

Yea but you would need to buy the ability to slot IOs from the looks of things.

I have seen something similar but only on BAF. Only have an educated guess that participation over a certain level gives you an uncommon if you were supposed to get a common.

The game does not decide that those with higher participation scores get better loot. If you dont get the 10 thread reward, you get a random table reward. Commons and uncommons are for some reason more common than rares and very rare rewards are .... well um ... very rare. So if you are getting something other than 10 threads the GAME has decided your participation is enough to not give you the booby prize. What you get from there is random.

If you qualify for anything better than 10 threads, the reward table is random. If you are getting to tier 3 and not getting very rares it is probably because they are very rare and you upset the RNG gods somehow.

So if game B is so much better, why are you playing this one still?

Then maybe you should get Castle to change it for you.

Valid point for PB.

Now for my thoughts on that.....

Just a guess of what can be causing the problem for many is what the devs are considering to be the goals of the trial may not be the what we expect.

If one of the goals is to blow up boxes and containers and all you do is clear a path for everyone and or heal/buff people to make it easier for everyone, according to the game, you did not participate because you did 0 damage to the containers.

If one of the goals is to use the acid on the walls and you didnt get any acid, then you had 0 participation for that goal.

If one of the goals is to keep the AV from being enraged and you gave all your grenades to the league leader, or didnt get any, or you killed him fast enough that you didnt need to use them, you did not participate in that goal.

If one of the goals is to break open the weapons delivery but no one needs to do that because all the acids have been used and there are plenty of grenades, there is not only 0 individual participation for that goal, there is no league participation either.

This is all pure speculation of course but it does seem to fit what peple are complaining about. So far in this thread I have not seen anyone that has had an issue with rewards on a BAF trial other than getting DC and getting 0 end reward, and that is a totally seperate issue.
