If THAT is the return of Hero 1 (all Lost-ified) that would make for a very very sad conclusion. I really hope that isn't Hero 1's fate, I would prefer him and Omega Team dieing in the explosion then for them to get all assimilated like.

What can I say, I'm a sucker for a nice accent...

Damn typoes...

You are ebil to take advantage of that! Ebil I say!

I'll agree that time will tell. But I would nail the lid on the coffin just yet. Then again, I've been accused of being overy-optimistic so, yeah... take that for whatever it's worth.

The uk Devs are better than the us devs, they actualy have a sense of humor and 90 percent of thier posts dont involve deleting and locking threads.

Bridger's not a dev, he's their Lighthouse.

[/ QUOTE ]

You know what I mean, thier community rep or what ever thier called obviously isnt uptight and isnt a butt kisser.

[/ QUOTE ]

Lighty's trying. *giggles* Ok, maybe the whole SuperMod (*fanfare*) thing isn't a fave but, the guy's trying.

*giggles again*

*throws conffeti*



[/ QUOTE ]

Suuuuure, riiiiiight, if everyone hates it when lighthouse locks a thread for even the dumbest things that cuppa or cricket diddnt even mind and he creates supermod, something that everybody resents, do you really think he's trying and that's gonna make him more popular on the forums, I think not.

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh no, his basic style is very different and I think SuperMod (*fanfare*) was his attempt at locking/redirecting a thread with humor and without that style of his.

No, he's not Cuppa or Cricket and he never will be. No one else could be. Everyone is a unique person. His 'style' is just very different than what we are used to. And, I think our style, the humor and such, is something he's not used to.

But he's trying. That's more than some folks do and he at least deserves a little credit for trying.

It's still been a relatively short span of time since CUppa left us, and then Cricket right after... Oh he was destined to fail. Give him a little more time. Let him get to know us and how we post, our humor and such, and let us get to know him. We'll all meet at a middle ground, or fan run forums will be way more popular.

For all our BMW (that's a b-word, moaning and whining), the devs want this forum. It'll all work out one way or another. Eventually.

*bites BuckeyeStar*

I'm removing my bite from the running... There's just too many things that shouldn't be.... bitten...

When the little symbol for an active arc went live, I checked and cleared some old stuff on a few characters.

Dunno, maybe others did too.

[ QUOTE ]
My opinion.

I support the idea that previously gain souvenirs should be used to ensure higher level characters will gain the rare invention drops they have earned by finishing arcs.

This may torque off power-leveled characters but I do think the devs made it apparent that there were costs to power-leveling.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm not sure about souvenirs... Will they all drop at once? Can you choose to only get some at a time? How many recipes can we hold at one time? I don't want to miss stuff because there's a massive drop at one time and my pockets are full before the drops are finished.

[ QUOTE ]
No, I have not read this entire thread, so forgive me if someone has already posted this.

The good doctor says this :[ QUOTE ]
* Some of the sets (the rarer ones), have parts of them that are only attainable by completing a Story Arc.

[/ QUOTE ] (emphasis mine)

Then, he says this:[ QUOTE ]
Now again, I must stress, the majority of sets, including entire complete sets come from simply defeating enemies. All the costume piece and temp power recipes come from defeating enemies. There are Rare recipes (ones that have a worse chance to drop than others) in Pool A (the defeating enemies pool) as well.

[/ QUOTE ](again, emphasis mine)

OK, look at the two bold parts, and tell me, don't they contradict one another? Either you can get anything from defeating any enemies, or not. Am I reading this wrong? Can anyone point me in the direction of clarity? Can anyone convince me to start playing again and finish my arc's now? (both boudicia AND skroo bahl are on the cusp of finishing arcs)

[/ QUOTE ]

Different pools are from different sources. The big complaint is pool B is only from story arcs.

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
The trouble with that is there's a limited amount of recipes you can carry. You can have an unlimited amount of badges, but if you suddenly received a recipe for every story arc souvenir you had, they wouldn't all fit into your inventory.

[/ QUOTE ]

Really?

So I can carry around 30 metric tonnes of titanium, alien artifacts, arcane books, jars of steaming entrails, trinkets, chotchkies, techno-doodads, and something like 1200 pieces of refined components (enough to create scores of gigantic power generators, machine guns, robotic surgeons, and many other types of massive equipment)...

... but I'm limited in the number of bits of paper carrying recipe instructions I can have on my person?

errr....

[/ QUOTE ]

You're strong but you have really small pockets.

I'm seeing a lot of posts where people are suggesting that implementing the Flashback system should be used to open up Start Arc drops to level 50s. Guys, I think it's safe to say that ain't happenin'. There's a fair amount of code that would likely need to be added to make Flashbacks a reality, and Cryptic seems to be pretty frugal with its man-hours. Use the KISS priniciple, here. The simpler the solution, the more likely it will be considered.

[/ QUOTE ]

/Agree.

How easy would it be to break up on of the Shard TF's into a couple of story arcs? Those suckers could use a revamp anyway, right?

I actually wanted to go with Drops II: Drops Harder

*sniff sniff*

Hmm. A faint odor of a positronic suit, there. Must be my imagination.

[/ QUOTE ]

No way, I would have gone with Drops II: Attack of the Drops.

[/ QUOTE ]

o.O

Truth or attempt to deflect the conspiracy theories?

Stay tuned next week for details!

[ QUOTE ]
Bear in mind that some of these issues will be addressed during the testing period. Perhaps not the exact issues you mention above, and perhaps the extent of changes may not be what you hope for, but there will be changes before any of this goes to a live server.

[/ QUOTE ]

Happy dance!

Also, ya'll are listening... *happy dance more*

Thanks for posting about that. Yeah, sometimes we get a little frothy but we don't have as much info as you guys do. So, we speculate.

[ QUOTE ]
It's been a while since I posted a top issues list, and for that I am very sorry.

We've been working on a few of the bigger bugs that have been hindering your overall gameplays and I just wanted to chime in and let you know that we are looking into the following with a high priority:

* Framerate drop when exiting a mission
* Missing (invisible) objects on mission maps.
* Client crash due to capes.

The last thing on the list (the cape crash) is causing us some major headaches and long nights, so it might not get fixed fully in the next build for Training Room, but hopefully it will be improved. For the meantime, if you find yourself on a team that is crashing a lot, you may want to have everyone switch to non-caped costumes for the duration. This includes trenchcoats unfortunately. Not the best solution I know, but we are working hard to get this completely fixed. Watch the boards and patch notes for when it's safe to put your capes back on.

In addition, we've made a bunch of fixes to power FXs for various powers to improve framerates. I don't have a list in front of me, but if I get one today, I will post it into this thread.

[/ QUOTE ]

Hey Posi, I've been having some of those problems. I've been dealing with them through the support center. I'm hoping that'll help get the info to the right folks faster.

Anyway, after a couple of back and forth replies we might have a couple of ideas.

[ QUOTE ]
Exactly, the fact that some people didn't get that. . . well I'm going to be nice today.

[/ QUOTE ]

Why?

*giggles*

Lets lynch 'em!

[ QUOTE ]


Besides, Doc and Lighthouse said thay're looking at exactly what some of us seem to be concerned about the most so... damn. I need a new thing to get mad at. Suggestions?


[/ QUOTE ]

You could get upset at the lack of control IO sets that really fit Dominators or even Controllers who don't want to slot controls for damage, or that even the Confuse sets require us to slot for *damage* (really silly -- there is not a single damaging confuse in the entire game).

Or you could get upset over...hrm...I dunno. Surely there's going to be plenty to get upset over!

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm not into dominators that much, I've tried, I like my corrupters right now. But my controllers, those are my 50's and what I'm concerned about. Damage? In a hold? Oh yes. Containment will rock hard.

[ QUOTE ]
I still don't understand all the doom and gloom.
Oh noes, I can't get several sets out of all of them! I might as well just delete my 50 now!
Seriously, what's wrong with all the other stuff?

[/ QUOTE ]

As the devs have already said they are directly looking into what we've all been "doom and gloom" about, your whinning about whining is now irrelevant.

Have a nice day!

[/ QUOTE ]

I never said anything about anything like that. I was wondering why it seemed to be the end of the world that you wouldn't be able to get these sets right off the bat.

Thank you, I will.

[/ QUOTE ]

My own problem, as I stated earlier was that inventions has been touted as something for shelved 50's to do. It doesn't make sense to me that the system that's for 50's automatically lock them out of something just because they happened to hit the level cap prior to I9.

That concern has been addressed.

That's all. If something is supposed to for a specific group of players, limiting that group sounds... not good. No, I can't think of a word that doesn't sound really snarky so, I'll leave it at that. But, they're looking at that. Yay!

Instead we are looking into other options to get you the Pool B choice so level 50s don't feel gimped.

Any hints?

We need way more info to get good and frothing mad.

I can get good and frothing mad without any info, thank you very much

I'm getting my froth from a cappucino right now so, I'm good.
