He should be nice like that. All the time.

Hmm.

There's a marketing gold mine in that name somewhere.

I made this thread because I am excited about what they are implementing... Not about wishes they would implement

So what?

It's a public forum. You don't get to choose what course a thread takes.

I'm also very happy with the addition of the virtual team size slider. We share joy in that for obvious reasons.

This change directly ties in to another change I've long sought after. I'm not going to sit back idly when there's the chance that I can use this opportunity to sway developer opinion.

What the heck is your problem?
You should be nicer.

Or you should be thicker skinned.

He even threw you a bone by pointing out a commonality between you. That's pretty nice of someone when responding to your attempt to tell them what they can and can't do in a public forum.

I was prepared to stab you until you had run out of blood, but then I got to the Hamidon part.

That made me chuckle.

If it'll work on Zone maps, I'd use it on alts so I don't have to keep feeding my OCD every time I create a new character.

You have to clap while being polite and calling its name backwards, but if you keep hunting, I'm sure you'll catch that I16 Info.

I'd add Mercy and PO, but I agree 100% with this.

Regarding what the devs consider acceptable for outliers, and what they should and shouldn't be able to do, go back and read the developer commentary during the Energy Melee nerf.

The question, as you point out, is what the developers consider acceptable, and I don't know that any more than you do. I do know that it has been possible to solo archvillains since the day the game hit retail and that no change made in all the years since has altered that. The fact that nothing has been done about it in all that time leads me to suspect that the developers dont have quite such a problem with people recieving that particular reward as you seem to want to believe.

Head to the current test server and I15 Beta forums and read developer comments about the recent nerf to Psychic Shockwave, where, in response to your exact argument, Castle directly states it was a well known bug that they just didn't feel needed to be changed until they were ready to address the rest of the problems with the AT.

I can see States and Recluse as AVs.

Phalanx and Patrons maybe AV-.

Vindicators and other direct sidekicks EBs.

Contacts and lackeys (Sands, etc) should be Boss at best.

Wow. I just saw the new faces for the first time.

I don't want to crunch the new artist, because I'm sure as she becomes more familiar with the tools, she'll get better, but yikes.

The screens in that dev diary really made her work look bad.

I took all my arcs down, and will likely never make another one ever again.
Since the Ratings system sucks so much, I honestly havent really logged into the game.

[/ QUOTE ]

HI P_P.

I'm sure you know this but I wanted to let you know that this game is not dependent on the Rating System. You can still enjoy running missions in AE or anywhere without worrying about the rating system sabatoging your fun.

[/ QUOTE ]

That only works if your self image isn't tied to what other people think of you.

Last time I ran the CaP SF there was plenty of lava there...

and some sort of honkin great fried chicken

Holy hell, they DO look like chicken... I can't believe im just noticing this.

Yeah, we call that one the Chickenleg SF.

Of course villains should win. Frequently, and with great fanfare. What the villain should not win is the final battle.

If evil never won, never prospered, and was ever incompetent, there would be no threat. No need for heroes.

Just look at Dr. Light from DC. Until the recent Identity Crisis business, he was a training wheels villain for the children to beat on. No threat. No respect. The police probably could have taken him out on their own if the Titans didn't feel like the exercise that day.

That is not the way to manage a villain in the long term.

Unfortunately, that's all our villains are here in CoX. We're the Dr. Lights of the CoX universe. For most of the game we're henchmen to people who don't even rate henchman status. We have one moment of almost awesome, and then we're back to henching for nobodies, with the occasional scrap of work thrown our way from the Mighty.

Aha. I stand educated.

Why is Raph Koster still on that list? Has he done anything since SWG? Much less this year?

Yeah, just from the text of the ITF letter it's pretty obvious to me that whoever is writing them is part of the coming storm itself.

Eh.

Now if you are simply asking that Merits be a tradable resource, or even trade-within-account, I am sorry, but that's not going to happen. Characters of different levels earn Merits at different rates. Merits are supposed to streamline the reward process for that character, and that's not going to be changing any time soon.

[/ QUOTE ]

So instead of having 15 of one resource that I can use, I'll have 5 each of three resources that I can't.

That's brilliant.

could someone other than me try to get Castle (or Positron!?) to make a comment on this thread? I think he's getting sick of hearing from me about /EA.

I have, with no response

I agree. And it amkes me wonder if this means the next MM primary will have something to do with the elements.

Yes. Won't it be wonderful when your melee pets have even more reasons to stand around and use their ranged attacks?

Very helpful, Sadako. Thank you.
