Quote:At the moment. There was recent mention that they will resurrect this in a manner suited to the new format. I think each person gets Paragon Points in the new system. I don't recall the details, but it's not active yet anyway. I'm sure there will be a hard-to-miss announcement at some point.Originally Posted by KimKimKim
Also, the "invite a friend back" thing is gone now, right? -

Hi! I'm going to go all Freudian and ask "What is the question behind the question?"

Have we had any indication that Premiums being unable to pay rent is working as intended? If they can join an SG, enter the base and use the equipment therein, it doesn't make sense that they can't pay the rent.

Quote:No need to get snarky. I was going to ask the same thing, AND FOR GOOD REASON. Sometimes things are linked to the BADGE and not the souvenir. Aside from the badge and souvenir, there is no hidden flag that tracks what missions you have done.Originally Posted by Guardsman
Father Xmas and Aggelakis - I apologize for not finding a way to make my 'I have run the first three story arcs and gotten the Vanguard ID souvenir' note in the opening post stand out enough to not be overlooked.
Okay, so you did the arc and you have the souvenir. Do you have the badge? This may actually matter. -

Quote:I know, right? Because the way it used to work, if you stopped paying, you got NOTHING!Originally Posted by Bad_Influence
Yeah, heaven forfend anyone think that literally years of loyally subbing to a game - with real money, no less - entitles them to a few perks. That kinda thinking has to stop and the sooner the better! *facepalm*

Is there any indication WHY he can't enter? Does he get the text in the base entry menu about base upkeep being past due?

Quote:Oh, if we're assuming, we should go for the gusto. I'm assuming that VIP players will be getting Nemesis Ponies.Originally Posted by Madadh
But since I like to speculate, should we assume this is Freedom going completely live?
Nope. Premium accounts were being activated systematically and MAY be finished by now. Free accounts don't exist yet.Quote:Originally Posted by Chaos Creator
They already are. -
Quote:To be fair, I don't think the goal is to screw existing players. I think the goal is to entice people to spend money by holding back 'cool stuff'.Originally Posted by RemusShepherd
But apparently I can't do that. It takes something like 2 paid years or $100 in order to have a second account that's able to join and invite in a supergroup. The devs apparently do not want players to have that ability. It's one of the few 'play our way' mindsets remaining.

One way to test it would be to get on a Mothership raid in the Rikti Warzone. Even a lousy raid should get you at least 300 Vanguard Merits. On one amazing raid, I actually got over 1,000.

Quote:1) ELIMINATE "Supergroup & Villaingroup Recruitment", as well as "Player Events".Originally Posted by Zwillinger
We would like to see other suggestions for simplifying the current forum structure.
VGs and SGs are, BY DEFINITION, restricted to a single server. This should be done in a server forum. As well, the overwhelming majority of player events are single server so this should also be done in a server forum.
2. MERGE "Developers' Corner", "The Global Training Room" and "Character Copy Tool".
These sections have very low activity and are clearly related so should be combined into one.
3. MERGE "The European Lounge" and "Oceanic Lounge"
Even combined, these two sections are far smaller than most server sections.
4. MERGE "Screenshots & Fan creations" and "Multi-Media City of Heroes and Villains"
The Multi-Media section is tiny and, really, is there some dramatic difference between these two sections?
And, offering my two cents on the recurring topic, I also think you should NOT merge the AT sections. Combining them by 'theme' or 'role' could strike new players as the RECOMMENDED way to play those ATs. We don't need to pigeonhole people. -

Quote:The alternative would have been to delete 907 random items and make players heads explode. This is working as intended. You can remove items at will, but can not add until it gets below 30.Originally Posted by Wing_Leader
I find that our base's Salvage Storage Rack is listed as having 937/30 pieces of salvage in it. If the limit is supposed to be 30, how is it that I see so many pieces of salvage in it?
I think it was to prevent hoarding because we were able to store invention salvage in the racks.Quote:Originally Posted by Necrotech_Master
i think it was due to having too many items in bases that it made the base unstable and there was a chance it could become corrupted -
Quote:I sure thought they did. Of course maybe what they actually 'meant' is no more 'no death' restrictions for the entire TF/trial. Since this is only for part of the trial, it "doesn't count".Originally Posted by Nericus
2. Loves a Challenge should be stripped of the no death clause, period. Wouldn't it be challenging enough to not smash the terminals and let Antimatter fully regenerate without the no death clause? Also didn't the devs state sometime ago that there would be no more "no death" clause badges?

Quote:Actually, that is NOT true. You can get drops from enemies below your level as long as they are not too far below you. You can *NOT* get Shards from an enemy below your level.Originally Posted by GavinRuneblade
The truth is once you unlock the alpha you can get shards from any enemy you defeat that is worth drops.
Also note, this is not based on how the enemy 'cons' to you. It is based on the numeric level. If you are 50(+1), you can get Shards from a level 50 enemy even though they con blue. -

Once again, the next SF in order (sort of) also happens to be the Weekly Strike Target. You can get bonus XP (if you're not 50) or a Notice of the Well (if you are 50). Everybody gets double Reward Merits.

Wow, this whiny entitlement thread grew a lot faster than the last one, which grew faster than the previous one. Within a couple of weeks, these threads should be able to reach infinite posts overnight.

Please note, if you change alignment while holding Alignment Merits, you will LOSE them. Spend them all before changing alignment.

Offhand, sounds like someone is starting rumors to entertain themselves. The only such rumor I heard was about Hasten, and it's false.

Quote:Did you miss the post about how cancelling your sub used to result in you having access to NOTHING. The way it is now is a tremendous improvement. It's unfortunate if it's not to your liking, but don't expect it to change. To expect access to everything for free is LUDICROUS.Originally Posted by DJ_Reaver
okay let me put it like this... you get a job.. You work there for 19 years in 3 months you get your pension....Your company sells out to someone else so you still got your job but the company doesn't care you spent 19 years there you got to work another 20 to get a pension now. Hell you feel lucky to keep your hourly rate.. But now their changing your insurance coverage...
Yeah that is actually pretty much how I feel But the sad thing is is that this company wasn't bought out their just taking away my pension and screwing with my life insurance. -
It's sounds like you've encountered a few notable bugs.
There is no guarantee that the right people will notice this post. You should PM a link to this thread to... um.... I forget which Arbiter it was for stuff like this. Maybe just contact Zwillinger unless someone else knows who it should be.
P.S. meh. Checked my mailbox. Used to be Arbiter Kim but he shows last active nearly a year ago. -
Quote:And yet every time I have contacted Support, the issue was resolved quickly. I guess different people have different experiences and it's not 'known' to everyone the way it's 'known' to you.Originally Posted by _r0y_
lol, has it ever begun? Support in this game is pretty famous for its inability to resolve issues.
Sorry, total BS on this part. *YOU* messed up so you lost the SG. Tough. The system was working as intended and as designed and it makes sense. Support's response was entirely appropriate. You're not in that SG so anything about that SG is none of your business. Oh, and there was no thief. The previous leader abandoned the SG.Quote:I recently came back after a 60 day hiatus, only to find that my personal SG was stolen by one toon that was in at the lowest rank (was temporary, and I did forget to remove him); now, the support reply? Oh, SG's are COMMUNITY property, so sorry for all your years of work being lost... Could I know WHO it was that did it? Nope. Guess it is too much of a community property to know who the only remaining member/thief was (or is). Very professional, NCSoft. Great idea, Devs, on that whole auto-demotion thing. Makes perfect sense to have someone at the lowest rank, who was in the SG for less than a few months be able to STEAL the whole thing after only 45 days. Forget that all those others were there for YEARS.
