  1. I don't know about everyone else, but as a Freedom server player I'm applying the lesson from the last few double exp weekends and avoiding CoX at all costs. I was under the assumption that AE was going to make it hundreds of times worse.

    Guess I was wrong...

    I thought that didnt work and the NPC dialog had to be in the lower un-tabbed chat window? Or does it not?

    Thanks,

    I just stuck it in window # 3 (In a tab called "NPC Chat") which I rarely even open, and NPC chat bubbles work for me.
  3. Windows user here (Vista, sadly), and I'll be buying the full pack tomorrow. The costume set just looks that good.

    Also, about the mission teleport power: Yeah, 2 hours is just wrong. I think it should be much longer (Somewhere from 6-24 hours). Players are just getting so lazy...

    I'm Kobold_Prime and I approve this message: I would have loved to have some CoH-style travel powers back in Morrowind/Oblivion...
  4. The 30-day badges worry me, but also I can already imagine the hordes of min/max-ers, farmers and build critics getting their hands on this...
    (even if the devs do make all the jobs perfectly balanced against one another)

    "im teh healzor I tok alchemist"

    "dont tak professor, midniter is teh bestest!!!"

    "U tok scientist? LOL noob!"

    I shudder in horror.
  5. I'm not much of a h3ealzor/Buff3r type but I might give Pain Domination a try. So, will I be rolling a Zombies/PAIN MM or a AR/PAIN Corr?

    And now there'll be benefits from logging out somewhere other than next to a Police/Arbiter drone? Nice.

    But Merit rewards sounds like something else people will be farming...

    I am looking for a way to pull it off with any team, ignoring max/min and ignoring players experience.

    Shoot Romulus

    Yes, it's really that simple.

    Agreed. Any time I've tried the silly tricks mentioned in this guide, we've failed. Utterly failed. It's not the complexity of pulling the dreaded healing Nictus away or what-have-you.. it's just the fact that it's so much simpler to, as they say, Shoot Romulus.

    It's an easy encounter with an interesting difficulty twist. It doesn't require any special tactics outside of your average "beat the crap out of the AV" fight. Just save AoE crowd control powers for when the Cyst Nictus spawns its horde, try to keep away from the Damage Nictus, and out-DPS the Healing Nictus. Not difficult.

    The team I was on tried to just "Shoot Romulus". We wiped. Several times.

    We ended up with about 64k debt on each team member before we decided to just give up.

    Barely even scratched Romulus.
  7. Once again, I'm justified in getting really paranoid on 4/1...

    Although this could be good, if it were optional. But it still seems to fit better with Freedom Force's style of humor than with this game.
  8. Awesome. Lord Recluse's reaction wins it.
  9. Just as I was starting to think about the possibility of an extended hiatus this drops.

    Amazing. But is it wrong that it's the "Major Gameplay Improvements" that excite me the most? Of course, I am still extremely excited about the VEATs, Cimerora, Powersets, Midnight Squad, and the Hollows improvements.
