This is kinda disturbing news. I thought we were just under 100 000. That is a rapid decrease in population. Yikes!
The author starts with one assumption, for which he gives zero justification or explanation, then applies math to his made-up estimate. -
Quote:Yes, yes and I don't know.Originally Posted by Zamuel
I guess my question would be, is my thinking unjustified? Am I letting it bug me when it really shouldn't? Or do others feel like this?
Yes, your thinking is unjustified. The simple fact is that more people play blueside than red. Therefore, there should be more content produced for blue.
Yes, you're letting it bug you when it shouldn't. See the previous item and keep in mind: it's only a game.
Beats me. I can only answer for myself. -

i know several of the poeple had hold and my pets had holds aside from the perma dom, and if the mitos did get mez reduction to 10 pts, and the perma dom can fire the single target hold for 6 mag hold every 4 sec, i dont know how in the world the mito kept up the increased regen cause within 8 sec, the perma dom would have applied 12 mag hold, and the combined mag hold from rest of team was about another 6 pts which should have dropped their regenGuys, unless I'm mistaken, the mitos are *NOT* fixed yet.Quote:Originally Posted by Turgenev
By the time we hit the greens, however, it stalled. We simply could NOT build enough of a MAG hold to overcome the green's regen. We'd get ragged pulses of damage, but after a second all that work would be healed over.
Castle implemented the fix but we have only had one patch since then and the mitos do NOT appear in those patch notes. So I don't think the fix has gotten to the live servers yet. -

This Saturday at 2:30 pm CST doing a run for the Task Force Commander badge starting at Numinia's and working backwards through all the tf's,
I normally run them in order so characters who are in the 10-35 range can level up in the early ones and be eligible for later ones. So, the character I'm currently leveling can't do this because she's only 27. -

that's no longer true. I left for 4 or 5 months and all my bids were still there (actually bought cheap purple sets that way)
I can't recall when exactly but they removed the 60 day limit a year or 2 ago.
It used to be that, after 60 days of not checking the market, you lost whatever you had in there. That is no longer the case.
HOWEVER, if your account goes inactive (unpaid) for 60 days, you lose stuff on the market. -
Quote:But you can buy it again when it runs out. It costs 10,000 inf in either Firebase Zulu (hero) or Grandville (villain).Originally Posted by ElectroHawk
Well the jetpack engine do glow like the rockets boots..... but yeah it's not a costume piece so it does run out.

Quote:Because it always gives the same maintenance message no matter day of the week it is. The only time you'll see a different warning message is if something catastrophic is going on and they have to take a server down on very short notice. Lately we've been getting an extra down day each week as they gradually fix stuff from Issue 17.Originally Posted by Morbid Star
As for your question, I'm wondering about this abit myself ?, As in, isn't today Wednesday ? i thought the standard maintenence was scedualed for Thursdays not Wednesdays? Why did they shut down the servers for standard scedualed maintenence on an unstandard unscedualed Wednesday ?
And yes, standard scheduled maintenance is once per week on Thursday. -
Hi there!

Bah.

And to the smarta$$ who left me negative feedback about me letting everyone know the MoLGTF badge is active. You left a comment of:
"how many people had to help so you could cheese this?"

Quote:Why?Originally Posted by Emberly
Sorry, didn't mean that in a rude sense, just seems crazy to burn holiday time to play video games, that's all.
Maybe it's a question of 'how' each of us plays. I don't take vacation days so I can solo. I run a large SG and schedule non-stop TF's and arcs during Double XP Weekends. -
Quote:No. There are some optional items that you CAN spend extra for, but there are thousands and thousands of costume parts available automatically.Originally Posted by menzow
Do i have to invest extra money for "Costums xD" ?
Someone did a study about this game for a college paper. As I recall, the average age was 26. Youngest and oldest people I have played with (that I know of) were 14 and 70.Quote:Whats the avg player age? ( Im 17 ) -

You take time off from your job to play video games?
Now here's a question for you: can you guess how much I care about your opinion on this matter?
To the OP: Not a clue. There is no set schedule. It will be announced here on the forums when it's going to happen. -
Quote:The purpose of the game is not to filter out the best players. The purpose is to provide the most fun for the largest possible number of people. If only the 'cream' can complete it, and lots of people end up frustrated, then that is a poor design.Originally Posted by James_Donner
Now its more like the STF, your gonna have a challenge. For once I wish Castle would leave it alone and let the cream rise to the top

Quote:Okay.... so you're going from one fact, which is "I'm a pack rat." to a sweeping generalization about gamer psychology. (shrug) It proves nothing. More than anything else, this thread resembles "Look how wealthy I am!"Originally Posted by Canine
And the developer response that comes up is always 'it would starve the market of supply and encourage hoarding'. (paraphrased).
This is a huge (5Mb) image I put together from all of my characters' recipe and vault screens. -
Quote:On a shield tank? Without spending billions? Easily. For under 60 million? . . . . I think so, but I'm not sure. If not, it's probably close. I think you'll need to spend about a third of that on the Steadfast +defense unique (and you'll need patience to get it that cheap).Originally Posted by Endless_Night
Excuse my ignorance, but is there a way to softcap (or be darn close) without spending billions? I've managed to muster up nearly 60 million.
Take every power in your primary that gives defense.
Get Weave.
Get Combat Jumping.
If cash is really at a premium, get Maneuvers. It's 2.275% defense for a tank. -
Quote:Harder does not automatically mean challenging or fun.Originally Posted by Dr_HR
So a TF has become harder boo hoo. I'm happy for the change makes things more fun.
Sometimes it just means annoying. Giving Reichsman 220,000 HP did not make the fight 'interesting' or 'challenging'. It just made it long. -
Quote:Perhaps.Originally Posted by Dersk
I had a very old blaster at 16 when I noticed he had the "entrusted with the secret" badge, but I have no idea how he got it. Perhaps I should comb through the contacts he's worked.
Or, if he's really old, he may have the 1st and 2nd anniversary badges which awards the Fifth Column gladiator - that gives the 'Entrusted' badge also. -
Quote:39-41. A level 38 can not start the Eden trial.Originally Posted by Residentx10
Thank you for clarifying your comments. I need to make sure I get a 38-41 Leader to lead this. :-)
(I think a lot of people confuse it with the Abandoned Sewer trial, which DOES start at level 38.) -
Quote:True. But, from where we're sitting, "wanting facts" is pretty much indistinguishable from "being lazy".Originally Posted by American_Angel
Asking people to back up their words with proof is not wrong are asking them to do the work for "me". It's simply wanting facts, not theory.

No, and it's pretty much guaranteed that it will never be possible since it would facilitate people SELLING characters.

Monitors are supposed to do that when the video card stops sending a signal - that's how power conservation mode works. So this sounds like a video card problem.
Had you changed ANYTHING just before this started happening? If not, fans wear out, dust accumulates, components fail.... have you got any utility that will let you monitor the GPU temperature? -
Quote:You didn't need to hold them in the past because they accidentally had negative mez protection - they were automatically perma-held.Originally Posted by GavinRuneblade
I've only done this one a few times, but why is holding the mitos so important? We always just killed them all and I don't recall holding them on any of our three runs.
They can use their AoE heal while held. (This is intentional.)Quote:Previously holding them meant they still spammed heals. Now, they spam heals because you can't hold them. What am I missing because i'm obviously missing something?
