Like when the military brass call something the "XM25 Counter Defilade Target Engagement System" and the troops call it "The Punisher".

Quote:REALLY??? I guess I IMAGINED running a level 50 character with lower level characters SIDEKICKED. And don't even try to tell us that sidekicks are part of the mechanics and not the lore. The Vindicators are mostly sidekicks of the main heroes.Originally Posted by Oldeb
No... See the Sutter TF comes first. It's the lower level. The game lore is not designed so that characters of one level are working concurrently with characters of another. -

I cannot email myself resources if the server is down. If the server is not down, then emailing resources to another alt is pointless.

Pay attention to what powers people are running. I used to play an illusion controller a lot and I would routinely scout ahead. I can't tell you how many times I would run into a room and someone would follow me and die instantly.
Me: What were you doing?
Corpse: I was following YOU.
Me: I'm invisible.
Corpse: . . .
Pay attention to the power icons. I was recently soloing tip missions on a dual pistols/devices blasters. I was set to a large team size and came to a room with a double spawn. Okay, I set up a bunch of trip mines for when they would inevitably chase me into the hall. Then I walk into the midst of them, with a stealth IO plus Cloaking Device, actually remembering to check my stealth radius combat monitor. No problem so far. I go plant a Time Bomb right in the middle of the huge group and they immediately attack. As my character starts shooting in every direction, I realize I hit Hail of Bullets. How could I make that mistake? The icons are a little similar . . . and Time Bomb is 'missing' from my tray because it's a tiny little dot, still recharging from my last use. Oops. -

That's what we badge hunters do: we always search for and use the fastest, easiest way to earn a badge.And what's 'efficient' to one person might not be the fastest or easiest way. For example, when I was getting the RV Pillboxes I actually defeated them - and only the neutral ones. This took a lot longer but the rewards were huge, especially on double XP weekends. Killing two birds with one stone made it efficient.Quote:Originally Posted by Kotchie
I take exception to that..I call it efficiency

As I said note, you ARE aware that they named them "Weekly Strike Targets" (WST) specifically so people would NOT use the abbreviation WTF, right?And when SCSI was introduced, they tried to get the consumers to pronounce it as 'sexy' but we all decided to pronounce it 'scuzzy'.Quote:Originally Posted by The Grim Heaper
Yeah, and they're "waist coats" not "butt capes"... but that'll never stop anyone.
Darn those unpredictable consumers!

Given that we're going to be losing the current launch screen when Freedom launches (I'm really not impressed with the replacement.

So, Mercury Avenger, on the Infinity server, wanted to run a BAF, Lambda, and Keyes (if anyone was bold enough to organize it),

Only Johnny is THE MAN!
And that's fine. I haven't seen anyone taking issue with that. Or, at least, not anyone with even half a brain. The problem is people, unlike you, who collapse into a fit of self-entitled whining, demand refunds for everyone and/or go full-on nerdrage.Quote:Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
Here's the thing - when I log into City of Heroes, it's to play a specific character. If I can't play that specific character, I'll play another game entirely. -

Can you all forgive me for being so immoral and hurting so many? I kind of feel guilty for potentially hurting others.

I looked at the " Now Hiring " section and they are looking for a Sr Server Engineer at the Mountain View location, for the love of god I sure hope they find one that knows what they are doing!

I like how you took the time to read the EULA so you can prove people wrong on the foums.

Just like last week, basically half the day wasted and the devs don't have enough common courtesy to let us really know what is going on. Instead they are giving away ridiculous costume pieces on the Beta server.Yeah..... either they should give us something, or they should get lambasted when they DO give us something. Under which scenario are they not cads and blackguards?Quote:Originally Posted by genealogymaster3
I say they need to give us something for what we have paid, my opinion, you may not agree and you have that right but I also have the right not to be shot down.

Same. Every server I tried (not all of them) was okay EXCEPT Freedom and Justice.

Server load two orders of magnitude greater? Oh, you meant to say "number of users". Completely different and tosses your point out the window. Carry on. -

And you can also do the long-term subscriptions. So it only costs me around $12 per month.

Quote:Oh, hell no. That would be an absolute outrage to enact such a dramatic change to an existing powerset.Originally Posted by Lady_of_Ysgard
I wish they would take a good long look at Stone Armor and make it so that the set doesn't have a tier 9 that effectively replaces three of the four previous armor powers with a better version, and cannot be used with the fourth.

Quote:Just off the top of my head, is the Wisp aura treated as a 'regular' aura where you can only access it after you unlock auras at level 30? The booster packs you paid money for make their costume parts (capes, auras) available at level 1.Originally Posted by Kitsune Knight
I was just going to create a new character and noticed that the wisps aura is gone from the 'auras' section of the character creator (I've only the Cyborg pack auras available now).
