    I don't like your attitude in response to Plasma. You are correct, however, so I back you position.

    The Debuff/Acc and Debuff/END are interchangeable with their counterparts in the buff part.

    To clarify:
    Debuffs in a buffing power buff.
    Buffs in a debuffing power debuff.
    I have not verified recharge reduction as actually enhancing slow effect along with recharge. It does, however, seem to be the case. When preparing to slot it frequently lists a slow enhance instead of recharge reduction. I am certain there is a solid answer somewhere on that part. I also cannot see developer alteration of this as it, interestingly, opens doors for players that normally required higher raid attendance to work around , if you aren't a social trader.

    I was waiting for the first Parody of that thread. Kudos.

    Bonus points, it's an actual Topic. They have been mighty Silent recently.

    Well I can't think of a bad movie that Tom Hanks was the star in. Maybe I didn't like some as much as others but non where bad.

    Bachelor Party isn't exactly what I'd call a cinema classic, either.

    Blasphemy! ;-)

    "C'mon! There'll be Hookers, and Firetrucks, and ..." I still use that line.

    Keep thinking, you'll come up with one eventually.

    [/ QUOTE ]And what about Joe versus the Volcanoe? Ieesh, that movie was horrible.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Ok, can't give you Mazes and Monsters, because I find Unintentional Comedy some of the best... But I will give you Joe vs the Volcano.

    Still, think you're wrong about Castaway - nothing is as bad as Larry the Cable Guy.

    Wooooo! My first time being the first after a red name!

    edit, after reading post: The Column shall rise again!

    Ok I seriously need to say this....

    What makes you so special on posting first after a dev? Tell me. I don't get this phenomena. I made a thread about a month ago on this but eventually it got derailed too far by some people so it was locked. But yet this keeps happening and mods don't seem to care.

    Yeah, I can just not read it, but its a little hard when its right after a dev. You wasted your time to post "Weee, I'm so special I posted first after a dev! I want a cookie!" then went back and edited saying "Oh...after reading it, here's something to contribute to what was posted" (not exact quotes but still damn close).


    [/ QUOTE ]

    And I seriously need to agree with that. It's GOT to be one of the most annoying current Trends.

    'First!' posts just Gotta Go.

    Was also in that Beta that had to do with certain magical rings. Lots of slow walking around and spawn camping were definite turnoffs. You forgot another one that really did it for me though. The lack of character options. There were only like 5 different "classes" and everyone of class X was an exact clone of each other. Not just in appearance, but in skill. You didn't even get to choose which skills as you leveled, they were all set for you. Zero choice. Say goodbye to having a bunch of alts, there would be no point. Alts are something I love about CoX.

    It was quite a shock coming from a game like this where for example not only can one defender can be very different from another from having different primary/secondaries. But even defenders of the same primary/secondary can be pretty different in what skills they choose.

    You never got into dyeing and crafting of armor / weapons, did you? There is plenty of character diversity to be had if one is willing to use it.

    I've already got my first set of dye stuff. All I need now is just one more item to start making dyes so I can have a unique looking character.

    No different than here where if I want to set up a 2nd costume, I need to run a mission to do it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Actually - I consider it a little different. You visit Icon and do a mission to gain a second alternate costume. If I just want to 'dye' my armor/whatever in COH, I just visit Icon, and 'maybe' pay a fee (if I have no free tokens). No mission needed, no gathering items, no collecting/trading/whatever.
  10. I heard this was the place to come to for a PvP argument.

    Hmm? It's not? Dangit.

    (I don't mind PvP, but don't particularly enjoy it eiter. I hate the smacktalk, the FOTM talk, the 'build critiquing' that goes on .. and on .. and on ... etc)
  11. Nice read. Now, get to work on all the other powers.

    Could be because many people were Massively Disappointed in that MMO. It was a MDO - Massive Disappointment Online - for me. I must not have been alone.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    No, you're not. But you're opinion obviously isn't shared by everyone. After all, the majority says, if you're not playing WoW, you're playing a MDO.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    But I never said my opinion would be, or even *should* be, shared by everyone, did I? Just that it was .. you know .. MY opinion on it, and that it appeared I was not alone.

    I'll go ahead and squash that one now. Level cap is NOT going up in I10!

    You heard it here first, the level cap is being raised in Issue 11!

    Hey cool, my question got answered - in true cryptic fashion. It is good to hear that they're going to be doing some work on SGs and bases though, even if we're going to have to speculate wildly to figure out what exactly is coming down the pipe.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Speculation? On the Internet?

    Well ... I guess We can give it a try ... you never Know, it might actually catch on.

    i'm not big on the Dev's redesigning Hamidon .... yet again. ...
    especially since the main reason (as i perceive it) is because we didn't do it as the Dev's had envisioned.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    They redesigned it because of numerous complaints about the setup, the numerous Griefing Opportunities, and the General "UnFun" for many players.

    Not because "we didn't do it the way they planned".

    Controllers will find themselves greatly desired in the final battle if the team wants to have any chance of winning

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Please tell me he didn't just say that you don't have any chance of winning without a Controller?

    - Jock Tamson, Who lacks active Controllers in his SG.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    He didn't say that. "Greatly Desired" is not automatically "Cannot Win Without".

    [/ QUOTE ]

    "if the team wants to have any chance of winning"

    Could just be poor phrasing, but that looks ominous to me.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah - I'm going with 'Poor Phrasing' .. trying to point out that an AT previously decried by some as Useless against AV's will have a use here .. so they resorted to some Hyperbole to 'generate excitement', and instead 'Create Confusion and Paranoia'. Pretty Typical of their Short Sighted view of some things.

    Last I knew "greatly desired" and "needed" meant two different things. It's helpful if you don't read things in that aren't there.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Last I knew, being "greatly desired IF THE TEAM WANTS TO HAVE ANY CHANCE OF WINNING" was the same thing as being "needed".

    And now I suppose you're going to say something bizarre like "you don't NEED to complete the task force, so they're technically not needed".

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I think that's more Hyperbole on their part than some admission that a Controller truly is required.
