    um, check your volume setting? How is the sound getting from the game to your ears? USB-based sound systems can be set to treat the output from different applications differently. Maybe something is set wrong.

    Every single attack has a sound effect and so does just about every other power in the game (aside from auto-powers - ones that are always on and can't be turned off).
    On top of that, there are location-based sound effects - traffic, foghorns, etc. If you stand outside various restaurants and other locations, you can hear sounds from inside.

    There! I said the words.

    SSD prices look more reasonable at the moment than a year ago, due to the flooding in Thailand that wiped out 80% of the world hard drive manufacturing capacity.

    Hey, let's turn this thread into another rant-fest!
    "What, you expect to be able to do everything solo? This is an MMO."
    muahahahahahaha

    I think she puts "eh?" at the end of every sentence, so she must be from the wrong part of Canada.

    However, unlike some forums, you can't upload the image here. You have to have it stored by some third party like PhotoBucket, ImageShack, etc.
    (Or your own web server, if you have one.)

    Yeah, none of us followed that example. I mean, all I need is access to freakin' GOOGLE.

    Oh, and FYI, the game is *NOT* 100% 'teamable'.
  11. I agree, and I can tell you what they should do to fix it and where they should put it. One of the Info tabs is for PvP and it includes a timer section. They should just add another tab for all reward timers:
    - weekly strike target
    - signature story arc
    - individual task forces
    - iTrial empyrean merits
    etc.

    If you run a signature arc, a WST, one other task force and two different iTrials in a day, your listing will display 5 separate timers with each indicating what it's for and showing the time remaining.

Well, these limited time sales just force on us, the customer, that we're 100% wrong and that you do not care about our business.

    The only place that "limited time offers" work are in the fast food industry. You are not fast food.
    Firstly, "The customer is always right." is nonsense. In fact, the customer is often an idiot.
    Secondly, limited time offers appear in many industries and they are effective.

    Having made those points, IN THIS SITUATION, I feel the limited time offer makes no sense. We're not talking about a Santa suit, a Pilgrim outfit, a Jack-O-Lantern head - we're talking about street clothing. These are items that would make sense to wear 365 days of the year.
  13. Well, I have a defender with tier 4 Clarion and Ironblade also has it specifically for the UG Trial. Sunday after the raid would probably run too late for me.

    Yeah, that's a bit much. I think running the Kahn TF 8 times in a row in the most I ever did.... 30 runs in one week working on the assisting badges.
    What?

    It's worked perfectly for me so far. And I use a spreadsheet to track reward eligibility for the 32 characters I run through the SSA's.

    Really? I don't see people agreeing with you.

    DELL specifically is one of the worst places to go for a high performance RIG. You are spending a good deal on the comp. Do not waste the money buying from some company know for substandard gaming rigs. GL.
    I see multiple people, including myself, saying that DELL IS FINE.
    It's the Alienware brand specifically that we have an issue with.

    I bought multiple systems from Dell before I started building my own.

    That's in Issue 22. The new EULA requires every account to have at least one catgirl.

    Just so you know, to-hit buffs will improve your odds to hit.
    Hasten will improve the extinguisher recharge.
    Sadly, you can't boost the 'damage'.

    Zoning to anywhere will cause your Portal to despawn. It works like a pet.

    FYI, I don't think it's "many" hundreds of yards. I tested it once a while back (may have changed since then) and I think it was about 200 yards.

    CardTrick emote!

    Yeah, I did some testing and it looks bugged. I don't know if the cards used a calculated distance or collision detection to explode when they hit the ground, but it's broken.

    I tested it on top of the train station. I watched with my camera pulled way back and saw the cards fall THROUGH the roof of the train station, THROUGH the platform, and into the ground. I tried it again high up in the air and the cards just kept falling as far as I could watch them.

    We can only hope. Perhaps you two will knock it off and the thread can get back on track.
  24. hmm... my most recent to hit 50 would be Chromatic Cat. Yes, she looks like she fell into a box of crayons AND has the Rainbow Path Aura.
    Inv/DM specifically made to level up on Infinity and transfer over to my brothers SG on Triumph.
