Jack Power

As a subwaytrain operator I kinda miss the old days. Herding an entire map with my tank and have a great train of mobs following me.

//Jack

4 tanks
4 scrappers
3 blasters
3 controllers
2 defenders
1 SoA
1 brute
1 MM
1 PB
1 stalker
1 WS

6 mutants
5 science
5 natural
4 magic
2 tech

I have a dom and corr in mind but that will have to wait until after I16. Guess they'll have to be tech both of 'em to balance things out.

//Jack

I still have some cookies left Ulli. Let's team on 2xXP weekend and you can have them.

//Jack

Yeah I forgot about that one. Have spent most of the workday in the base building part of the forum. I'm awestruck to put it mildly. I'm now on my way home to rip the old base to shreds and start from scratch.

//Jack

I'll play to. Doubt any devs will do this.

1. What is your favorite word? Semla

2. What is your least favorite word? vårtgård

3. What turns you on? My girlfriend right after a shower.

4. What turns you off? Injustice

5. What sound or noise do you love? Laughter

6. What sound or noise do you hate? Gunfire

7. What is your favorite curse word? Jävlar (beat the filter hehe)

8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? Police

9. What profession would you not like to participate in? Medicine

10. If heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates? Ha! I am real. But since you were a nice guy in life you're welcome here anyways.


//Jack

PS. Dying Giraffe? Geez..

I have rolled a new alt and will probably get another one so I'll be forced to buy new slots for I16.

I have all my guys in a ladder formation so I have characters in range for almost anything, TFs and trials.

I think I'll be bumping the guys up a notch or two on my ladder.

//Jack

What I really would like is a good base building guide. I know there has been tries but I still haven't found a very good one. :-( Me want glorious base to!

At what month badge would you consider anyone a vet?

Oooo good question, Jack! And a tricky one.

I would not consider anyone vet based upon any month badge.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think you miss the point. A vet is someone with enough paid hours to be considered a part of the furniture almost. Even someone with the 60 month badge can bee a n00b, since there's a difference between n00bs and newbies.

I think, in my mind, if I see a 40+ badge I think I really should know this person. But that's just me. Cripes, you could have played for three years and not be a vet in my eyes.

Funnily enough, *I* play every AT like a Defender.

[/ QUOTE ]

Eh, I play everything as a scrapper....... my defenders dont like it

[/ QUOTE ]

Not surprised PK is defender orientated. I play as a tank in everything I do. MY defenders don't like that either.

//Jack

I'll bet I'm here longer than you Broadback. :-)

//Jack

Two years for the first 50? Sounds about right.

Gratz!

//Jack

Gratz Mike. You be the über vet now. Come to think of it. At what month badge would you consider anyone a vet?

//Jack

Always sad to see people go. I on the other hand they have to drag kicking and screaming from the server even after the lights go out.

//Jack

Very nice base. The bowling alley gave me a real LOL moment. A bit choppy video but that can be my crappy laptop at work.

//Jack

Guardian is back. Thanks.

*stops with the pills*

//Jack

Guardians globals are down and I feel lonely!

//Jack

I'm already in @global withdrawal. I need innane chatter!

Shall we weet up? Say Pocket D?

Travel Powers: “They only gave us four! Four different ways to get from point A to point B. An’ don’t give me that rap about the Mission Transport or Pocket D VIP port or all that… They’re all just the teleport power re-packaged. I want web-slinging! I want a motorcycle that leaves trails of radioactive ooze after it! I want a thundering steed! I want to open a portal to an alternate dimension that’s filled with hallways of doors. Each door leads to a different place and, unless you have a map, you can easily end up lost. You give me that… and I’ll spend the rest of my life trying to find the door to the Playboy Mansion.”


[/ QUOTE ]

A very good suggestion. I want a thundering steed! Or at least a pony.

//Jack

I agree that 44 can feel like a slow level. But when you hit 45 a whole new world opens up TF wise. STF, LGTF, RTF(Khan) and the higher Shard TFs.

Run another ITF to ding 45, then 50 is just a short hop away.

Now go PL the rest of the bunch.

• Oh come ON! When are they going to give Stalkers Fire Aura?! ‘Cuz nothing says invisibility to me like bright orange flames!

• I upped the difficulty to the max and the Atlas Statue just animated and threw the ball at me.

• I think there’s a glitch in the difficulty settings; I was able to manually enter “0” into all the fields and now when I just walk into the door everything in the map dies and I get the Mission Accomplished message. I wonder if this is what being Blue Steel feels like?

• We need to be able to set our personal view of other people’s powers to Standard! I just played with a guy who was running a force fields/radiation blaster with a shield of every day-glo shade imaginable and rad blasts to match. You need to either let us shut off that stuff or start supplementing my migraine medication costs.

• I don’t think my computer likes the combination of colors I just chose for my powers… my graphics card just burst into flames.

• So I have to look at other people’s choices for their power colors, huh? Most compelling argument for buying a black and white monitor that I’ve ever heard.

• Why can’t I choose Invisible as a color? I want my enemies to be confused as to why they’re taking damage.

• Hey, what’s with this disclaimer on the City of Villains creation screen? “You can now choose ANY color for your villain’s powers… as long as it’s black or a shade of red.”

• Yeah… that’s hilarious… you’re the 6th Thermal Defender today to cover me in pink fire and make “Flamer” jokes.

• So what am I supposed to call my Dark Miasma now that it’s flamingo pink?

Steel, you may have just given me the script for my I-16 teaser (if I come out of retirement).

You will. You KNOW you will.

It is...inevitable.

CUT. Geezus, people. Read the script.

That line was clearly 'It is... your destiny.'

Vader isn't going to like this, and I'm not the one telling him we changed his script! I saw what happened to the LAST guy. That's how I got this job!

[/ QUOTE ]

No worries. Vader's got a new gig.

• Umm… so I’m running the Issue 16 beta for the first time.. I figured I’d test the new difficulty settings.. jacked up both to the maximum allowed… but when I entered the mission there wasn’t a ton of bad guys.. just one.. Nemesis dressed in bib overalls… he says he’s going to make me “squeal like a pig”… umm… is this working as intended?

• I upped the difficulty to the max and the Atlas Statue just animated and threw the ball at me.

• I think there’s a glitch in the difficulty settings; I was able to manually enter “0” into all the fields and now when I just walk into the door everything in the map dies and I get the Mission Accomplished message. I wonder if this is what being Blue Steel feels like?

• Okay… so explain something to me… some dude decides to run a Pink Ice Defender… and now *I* have to be the one to suffer for it?!

• Willpower can be colored? Interesting possibilities there… Blue Willpower: Can’t decide between Hefty Smurf or a Blind Soul Singer.. Black Willpower: Captain EMO!! Green Willpower: Made from 100% recycled Will!

• I don’t think my computer likes the combination of colors I just chose for my powers… my graphics card just burst into flames.

I have to stop drinking coffee when reading Steelclaws lists. Had to wipe the screen six times. Damn you! *shakes fist*
