Sorry, totally off topic (what was the topic of this thread again?). But long in the past I painted Roles Royces--crazy stuff with airbrushes and sparkle paint--for an eccentric millionaire.

The Roles-Royce company does keep track off all their cars as if they are their children. They even want you to get their permission if you decide to paint your Roles-Royce. I had some interesting back-and-forths with them when I told them what I was planning on painting on some of their cars. I finally had to tell them to bugger off when they were less than agreeable in their replies.

I just have to ask. What 'better' parts of the game were removed when the 'end game' content was added?

Since i20 my play style hasn't really changed. I've just now started to dabble with Incarnate Trials on a couple of my 50's. I'm in no rush. I still spend the majority of my time on my lower level alts. I'm sure the devs are working their butts off creating new content for the Incarnate system that addresses many of the players concerns. Such as additional Trials. Trials that can be soloed or small teamed, etc.

I can't think of any MMORPG that is 7 years old that gets this much love and attention from its developers. Seven years of content, with more coming all the time.

This is a brilliant idea. The League chat window could have a tiny tray attached across the top edge for that purpose.

I assume all SG bases are in the same Database where they are distinguished from one another by a "Server" field. It should be easy to "move" a SG base from one server to another since they are generated in a unique instance.

Just a question of biology and social norms. Isn't the biological relationship between a Grand Father and Grand Daughter on a par with the genetic simularities (commonalities) between Cousins? And aren't cousins allowed to marry?

Dear Devs, please add an option that lets me turn OFF the ability to earn Rares and Very Rares on Incarnate Trials. Any reward system that pits the players on a Team/League against each other for rewards changes my teammates from my companions into my competition.

Speaking only for myself, I really don't have a problem if the reward system is designed that way. I take it all in stride. But a lot of people do. Especially the ones who want their new shinies NOW. Good luck with whatever system you do come up with. It is inevitable that many people will never be satisfied with it, sadly.

Okay, like the hilarious alternate universe gender shifts of Fushionette and her boy friend in the Sutter TF, I'll be extremely disappointed if we don't see a female version of Tyrant and Marauder in one of the up-and-coming new Incarnate Trials.

Especially, galadiman's post. Well done!

Thank you Arnabas. The above comment so completely describes my approach to CoX over the last 7 years that I just had to quote it.

So far I have attempted one Lambda TF, which we failed. But I've been having too much fun with a couple of lower level alts lately to focus on I20 stuff exclusively. I'll get around to it when I'm good and ready. I'm one of those 'enjoys looking forward to stuff' people. By the time I do get around to doing BAF's and Lambda's the bugs will be fixed and most of my league-mates will have the previous experience with the TF's to make them go smoothly.

This is one extreme. The other is a team where no one leads at all. Both those extremes are bad.

Also If you're leading a team be sure to keep the momentum going. Do not, for example, go off to train and expect your teamates to stand around waiting for you. If you level after the first couple of missions and your enhancements just turned red you picked a really bad time to start up a team.

I blame Damz for this whole mess! I could have just been at work looking forward to getting home and having my CoX fix. But then he starts this thread and things are looking more and more dire! Ignorance is bliss dang it!

P.S. Love ya, Damz

Clearly, just because something is not yet flagged as an exploit does not mean it is, in fact, not an exploit. I am confident the devs did not deliberately design the game so that a player could go from 1 to 50 in six hours. So a player who found a way to do that would be exploiting a design flaw.

I still have issues with 'toon'. But I'll even use it sometimes if someone in a conversation has already used it. Wow, I can't believe I'm saying this.

The Well takes from us what we never had, and gives us what we've always had.
