The whole "if you don't like it, don't buy it" argument is absolutely true, but it also brings up other issues.

What part of anything you just had to say was on the topic of the valentines pack and enjoying the nice new costumes and emotes? You just spewed "I love Wow!" ... nothing more.

#1 : That whole post was was directed at the Valentine's pack...See that little "trinket" reference?
#2 : I don't play WoW, never have. Guess you also missed the "3 years" reference in my post above it too...
#3 : If you can get alot of mileage out of paying $10 bucks for a few wedding related costumes and emotes, more power to you, but I am not quite sure how you will unless you are proposing to alot of people, proposing to baddies, throwing alot of weddings, or throwing rice and flower petals at villians...Have fun with that.



And Powerhelm, I love your avatar, and your sig is dead on

While everyone is entitled to have your own opinion, $10. bucks is cheap in my book, and for the record I happen to live on a fixed income because of a disability. So if the next argument is that your not rich, it won't hold any water with me. I only get $725. a month and yet I can manage to pay all my bills and still have money left over in my budget to pay for 3 accounts and this costume pack.

I agree. $10 bucks is cheap. I spend more on that for coffee in 2 days. It also gets me a little over 3 gallons of gasoline. It also gets me a gallon of milk. It also gets me breakfast. It also gets me lunch. It also gets me dinner. See where I am going with this? I think the main issue is what that $10 is actually getting....

Forgot to add :

If the devs actually believe selling these little trinkets are going to increase business, or keep the MAJORITY of us "die hards" interested, they need to relook at the player population. On top of that, people are actually paying for outside companies to sell them influence and power levelling services...Speaks volumes about the situation of the gaming experience.

To wit I add the Mr. T commercial where he is the Mohawk class Scrapper made me ROLL! Hack a game and make a new Scrapper...Great idea!

Wait...Wrong game? Well, who are the celeb's pitching CoX? There are none? People are going to WoW in droves now? Wonder why that it is...Maybe the constant patches to fix issues that were bugged that shouldn't have been rushed into production in the first place? Like take for example the latest patch, it included a little something that FINALLY fixed the Endurance Modification IO sets that were "broken" since the IO issue was released, and to rescale the levelling process that should have been implemented in i6...This game is chock full of it's little "issues." To say nothing of the fact this massive overhaul of the servers did precisely nothing to increase game stability or server speed...$15 a month gets loads...And don't fool yourself into thinking NCSoft and Cryptic are releasing all this to "boost OUR gaming experience" or "it was overdue, and we did it for YOU." They do it to make money, and to keep making money. Like the dealer that hooks you up with a small "freebie" knowing full well that you'll be back for more later...I know people that left the game simply because of lack of change in-game long ago, they won't be coming back because of the "new" changes that aren't actually all that great to begin with anyway!

Great, so you created IO's...Like all my 50's decked out with Hammi's weren't stupidly over-powered to begin with, now you want to add the ability to rocket them off the SCALE with bonuses. At least I have something to spend my influence on instead of SO's and costume changes. A billionaire I am now longer, but still not that far from.

HEY DEVS! Here's an easily implementable idea to keep us jaded players interested:
Change the mission difficulty scaling. Rolling Invincible generates +2's? Ooooo, me scared now...Make it generate +4's. Run the STF and it spawns +4 AV's. Any lvl 50 worth his/her salt can handle a mission packed with +2's. I drool at the thought of farming +4 Demons, with +4 Demon bosses


People leave because this game is all about the same old missions, same old levels, same old characters, same old maps, same old powers...Something about polish and cowpies comes to mind. Bottom line? This game needs a massive overhaul to clear the air of the stagnation...Not tossing little packs out, and actually charging for them

If it wasn't for the people I have known for the last 3 years playing this game, and my ability to PL my toons, and anyone elses, I would have left long ago...The thought of having to level another toon through the Hollows generates a stabbing pain in my right eye that travels all the way down to my left pinky toe whenever I think about it. I have ground levels out from 1 to 50. I have run the same old gamut of the game. I know why PI is packed with lowbies, so does everyone else. Do you?

Yeah I missed the 'in real time', I think ym briain is addled today.

EG:
Sorry the win goes on. Did you not get the memo that suckage is no longer part of CoX ?

(aside from MOG) *ducks and runs*

[/ QUOTE ]

MoG continuing to suck is the only thing that grounds me in reality.

[/ QUOTE ]

You might want to avoid the Training Room in the near future, then.

Goody...I needed this fix, as my Spines/Regen was really quite lacking and teh suxxorz without having MoG. All those IO's don't help too much, even with a wallpaper list of bonuses

I know alot of people hate Fire/Kins, but this guide is the work of beauty many people have been waiting for. Great Guide!

[/ QUOTE ]


Yeah, they hate us...Until they want to run the STF or "lvl X lowbie LFT" in PI...Why would a lowbie toon be LFT in PI ? And I wonder what AT they are there specifically looking to team with there...
