    Grats Jeff!

    Now that you've got a 50, what are you going to do next?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Do what every 50 does.. make a really poorly built Kheldian.
  2. Sis of No Mercy, old enough to be my second character in the game, became my first 50 this evening.

    Only took 39+ months

    Awesome write up!! It must be nice to be able to write yourself into the Freedom Phalanx. Grats on earning that accolade.

    All it means is they call him in when the others are on vacation. He's a temporary.

    pwned!

    Decidedly so.

    I can't believe they didnt start it on Friday the 13th.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    They avoid Fridays, so if something catastrophic happens, it doesn't ruin the weekend. Putting it on Tuesdays or Wednesdays usually gives them enough time to straighten things out before the weekend.

    At 50 you can change your title at any time.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Bounces!

    Woo-hoo! Thanks Positron!

    Simply put, because it's using your influence to get the word out that you're no longer the "Mysterious" Bob and now the "Amazing Death-Defying" Bob

    Same way that you're putting out word on the streets that the weirdo in Green & Red is just Superdude in a new costume.

    The artist formerly known as Prince...

    I just don't see going to the image consultant to organize a media blitz to create a public perception of your favorite title...or newpapers using titles at all. Extra verbage is generally avoided in news stories.

    The Amazing Spiderman had (nine?) other titles, after all.

    I don't know, it's thin. I could buy it if the devs want to go that way, but from a player-satisfaction viewpoint I believe it's the wrong choice.

    Earnable titles (like earnable costumes) are the proper rat-at-the-feeder-bar MMO player-motivator response. But once you have them, changing them shouldn't be a big deal.

    Like I said when I wrote it earlier in the thread, "at worst" an influence cost.

    Personally I could see it either way. It makes sense for there to be a cost, it makes sense for there not to be as well.

    Clearly the whole idea was a little half-baked and needs a few more minutes in the oven...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    As opposed to power colors which were left in too long?
  10. [ QUOTE ]
    Like costume costs? Yeah whatever you want since this isn't going to happen anyway.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Aren't I supposed to be the stuck-in-a-rut unchanging pessimist among the two of us?

    could see it costing 1 million INF as a reasonable requirement.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well I'd think it'd more scale along the lines of the Difficulty levels with Hero Corps, personally
  12. Every time this comes up in the suggestions forum, I suggest that they should be freely changeable, or at worst with an influence cost.

    God I hope that change comes with I8.
  13. I wonder if this means a villain Hami equivalent in I9 as well...

    What's the recharge on the Pocket D card teleport power? Interruptable or anything else unusual?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Don't know, but it's almost undoubtedly got a significant interrupt time, given that it'd be a free-escape otherwise.
  15. [ QUOTE ]
    Yeah, 9.99 sounds good to me. Can we pay on the NC soft website or do we have to actually buy a cd, wiat for it to arrive, then install it?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It's buying a code.
  16. Another 10-er from me to be certain.
  17. [ QUOTE ]
    Also because Statesman told me more than a year ago they were looking to create a unlimited respec trial for level 50s which we are still waiting for.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    That's probably the best reason I've heard for a freespec in this entire thread.
  18. [ QUOTE ]
    At this point I would say if there is something in the Vet rewards that changes how toons perform, more then likely there will be a free respec.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    So far, everything we've heard, even the Temp Powers (like Perm Nemesis staff) would lead me to believe there's nothing there (other than the Vet Reward issued respec)...
  19. [ QUOTE ]
    Good enough for me. That puts me at 22 months instead of 20, qualifying me currently for one more reward!!!! :: dances and cheers ::

    [/ QUOTE ]

    So where have you got this structure from? Or have they indicated it's one per three months?
  20. [ QUOTE ]
    You're slightly mistaken. Pretty sure Cuppa confirmedit'son time *played*.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah, the source above was merely to help you get an estimate. The point being that if you ever unsubscribed those months you were not subscribed would not count towards your rewards.

    Funny tidbit -

    When we first got these on internal for testing the 5th were bugged.

    Link to Screeny of what the 5th looked like before it was fixed:

    Linky

    I kind of liked them that way. Nothing more frightening than a pair of glowing eyes and shoulder pads in a dark alley.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Cuppa, I took a look at that picture.

    I need to /petition "Magnet O" for using a trademarked name. Can you tell me what server that was on?
  22. [ QUOTE ]
    Well villains cant get the new gladiator because none of them existed last anniversary, kind of weird that a villain cant have a 5th column gladiator.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Mayhap it'll just end up requiring two anniversary badges and become avialable to them next year. Of course then the heroes will get something else...
  23. [ QUOTE ]
    Does anyone actually use gladiators? I'm a little disapointed that the 'veteran' reward isn't something more useful like a rock temp power or a party hat.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well everybody wants a rock temporary power. It'd just be cruel to only give it to the veterans....

    [ QUOTE ]
    Apparently, this is the maintenance that doesn't end.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Does it go on and on, my friend?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    And people started doing it....
  25. [ QUOTE ]
    I guess this would be a good day to roll my magical girl, too, so it can be the first badge she earns.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I wonder if I should finish off designing that schoolgirl fire/mace tanker I keep saying would be fun to do.....
