I'd like a sound associated with it too please Devs.
From the patch notes for the build currently on the Test Server:
"There is now a sound played when receiving messages on the League chat channel." -
Quote:I have Local, Team and League chat in the lower window and Broadcast in the upper window where I can more easily ignore it. You can also have additional chat windows if you like. But you can't change the colors.Originally Posted by atomicdeath
Its hard to tell the difference between broadcast and league chat on my computer. Anyone know how to customize either one?

Quote:Not following you here. Those "variety of corrupters" were packing a ton of debuff. When you had more debuffs on him, it was easier to defeat him. That hardly seems inconsistent.Originally Posted by Mystic_Fortune
The inconsistency of taking on Marauder without using the grenades is down right annoying. It's either impossibly difficult or incredibly easy. On a run with 3 Radiation toons (two Defenders and a Controller, among other buffs/debuffs) we barely made it with less than a minute to spare, after several failed runs.
On tonights run with a single radiation Defender, and a variety of corruptors (couple kinetics, dark and a cold) we managed to breeze right through it with 9:32 to spare.. that's just.. dumb.. -

I'm in. Al Pine is currently level 27.
Quote:I'd offer to unlock the contact but my guy is only 27. If you want to unlock the contact on one of your characters, I'd be happy to run it with you. As I recall, Lars Hansen's arc can be done in under 30 minutes even if you have some of the 'gimp' settings to earn Ouroboros badges. I think I soloed it in 29 minutes with no travel powers and no temps.Originally Posted by mscats
I don't have access to Hess tf, so someone else will have to lead it, I guess. -

Summary: A long newspaper article about how two players fell in love and are now together after playing on the MMO World Of Warcraft [you might have heard of it, if not its rated 2nd best MMO

And the NY Times has just noticed this? -
Quote:I really liked them. I thought some of the missions were very creative and I'm glad we keep seeing new stuff. Not everyone is going to like everything.Originally Posted by TheJazMan
Anyway, it just seems like a lot of the creativity is lost lately and these new things seem to be almost an afterthought (especially the Sutter and Kal).
Like revamping Faultline? That kind of update?Quote:Originally Posted by FloatingFatMan
Completely and utterly wrong. Other MMO's can, have and DO update older content to tie up with new content. -
Quote:It would be silly if that requirement actually existed. There are a number of powers available to everyone, with no additional purchase, that will get the job done. Even Combat Jumping is enough.Originally Posted by JayboH
Just have to say how ridiculous it is that you have to buy the Natural pack to participate in anything.
Lots of us have it, but think about how silly that is. -
Quote:The league system does not override team restrictions. You can't use Recall Friend or Grant Invisibility on someone who is not on your team, even if you are both in a league.Originally Posted by Starwinds
One thing I've been wondering about though, is with the League, will this open up CoP a little more? Do you still have to have 3 leaders from the same SG with base access or will the League system allow if the League leader's SG has access?

Quote:FYI, there is nothing else to install. The game client is identical whether you have Going Rogue or not. Going Rogue is simply a 'flag' on your account information.Originally Posted by Doogie
Reason I ask is that the game patched from the downloaded and I'm not sure if I should install the expansion (as it may have installed from the site).

Quote:Originally Posted by Amerikatt
By the time I actually get *into* the Trial, half the robots in the first encounter have been defeated and I can look forward to a reward of Uncommon or lower.
Nope. The reward system doesn't work that way. Once you reach a minimum participation level that lets you avoid the '10 thread consolation' reward table, it is RANDOM.Quote:Originally Posted by Hyperstrike
This is the issue with the cut scene that really bugs me. Other than that, I could give a damn.
Let me be perfectly clear: your participation has ZERO IMPACT on whether you get a Common or a Very Rare. Baryonyx made a detailed post explaining this. Now, there is currently a BUG that makes Uncommons drop too often but, again, your degree of participation is not affecting whether you get to pick from Common, Uncommon, Rare or Very Rare. -
Quote:That is correct. I'm keeping it anyway. I collect temp powers - even useless ones.Originally Posted by Adeon Hawkwood
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it stop providing any benefit to level 50s?

Quote:It's RANDOM!Originally Posted by Bladesnow
So certain are you. I've run well over a hundred trials, and only found ONE very rare. Makes it rather hard to build the tier 4s.
In approximately 40 successful runs of the trials, from the day they were introduced up until yesterday, I got two Very Rares. Last night I got *THREE* Very Rares. -
Quote:No. This is false. Although I love the weasel-phrasing, 'essentially' disabled.Originally Posted by Stormfront_NA
Now there are parts, I truly frown with BAF, and that is having particular AT abilities essentially disabled.
The fact of the matter is that your powers are not disabled at all. There is ONE enemy type in that trial that has broad, high level protection to mez and control effects of all sorts.
Except, in both cases, it wasn't *ALL* lieutenants, was it? As I said, it's one specific enemy type. There was no change to YOUR powers. One specific enemy simply had better defensive powers.Quote:My first very bad experience, amazingly happened with my Tanker. I had always prided myself with having a very well developed and effective taunt. Then on BAF, I could not taunt a LT, how humiliating! I mean a LT!!!!!!! Come on!!!! What gives?
My second aweful experience, was with my dominator, also in BAF. I tried to hold the mobs and LTs simply gave me the bird and continued going. Once more, LTs? Come on!!!! What gives with this? I thought as a Dominatrix my holds were my bread and butter, what happened? I mean, I can't hold a LT? That is simply ridiculous.
But I guess, with great sadness, the devs are uncapable of providing us challenge with out disabling AT powers. So sad, and such a terrible trend... -
Quote:Now that you made me scroll back up and look: "High Huntress 50 Archery/NRG Blast". Oh geeze! It's you.Originally Posted by Ms. Mesmer
Edit: LeBlanc, I had never really noticed your sig to see who your characters were. No wonder we get along, you have a Bucky avatar. Anyone who likes Get Fuzzy has to be a good person. It's science!
So many people have no connection at all between their character names / forum names / global names. Unlike me.

Anyone that sent a hateful message is a Grade-A Jerk.
I had someone 'disappear' during a Synapse TF. It was the mission to defeat the Clockwork Lord. Normally, if the leader selects the next mission it will kick any stragglers out of the last mission. In this case, the next mission is a 'talk to' and it can't be done until everyone exits the map.
I sent a few tells. No reply. I explained the situation to the rest of the team and told them to take a snack break. We gave the person 10 minutes then I kicked them so we could continue the TF. There was no need for any discourtesy.
(I learned later that the person had an emergency with a family member which was addressed in a matter of minutes but caused them to completely forget about the TF. No big deal.)
Anyway, if anyone sent me nasty messages in a situation like that, I'd one-star them and attach a player note QUOTING what they said to me so I would later recall exactly why I would not wish to associate with them. -
Quote:And Baryonyx has posted that the system was designed almost exactly how I suggested.Originally Posted by Ironblade
1. Make the system almost entirely random. That's the fairest for everyone.
2. Instead of trying to apply various participation metrics, which are almost impossible to work fairly across AT's, have metrics for a LACK OF PARTICIPATION.
The actual design is even simpler than mine. Instead of lack of participation downgrading your reward chances, they just dump you into the 10 thread category if you don't hit a certain minimum level. -

If I've matched prestige for you in the past, be aware that I'm going to take your name in vain in a post in the Market forum.

Quote:It's not the "current" requirement. It's the INTENDED requirement but it's not currently working that way. You can get all the badges in one run.Originally Posted by Mind_Over_Matter
Although it certainly would seem repetitive to run it multiple times to meet the requirements for Antacid and Well Stocked, I accept that such is the current requirement.

Ah, yeah, they really need to fix the trial reward system - I've got enough Uncommons on my WS to start a shop and the only rares I've had were from the Mo badges.

Phrased incorrectly. What you meant was that YOU no longer have an incentive. I do. I'm sure lots of other people do also.Quote:They took away any incentive to go do content that grants shivans or nukes...so play less content.
Again, false. YOU no longer see an incentive. I sure do.Quote:They took away incentive to be a long term vet...something EARNED break the new trials?
Yes, but only because you start from a point based on a collection of false assumptions and suppositions.Quote:Am I wrong in wondering what they were thinking? -
