    Well, I found this thread last night (I've been away, and only got home just now, and didn't want to spend hours crafting a reply on my phone)...



    I'm sorry to see you go, Stase. We haven't talked much, I've seen you a time or two at events, and that's about all that I can say about our relationship with each other, I think.

    You'll be back - they all come back - and it'll be great to see you when you do.

    So, good luck to you, and that blokey of yours who has the coolest first name it's possible to have. See you around.

    Why, oh why?

    1. Why do we have to get 700 mil or whatever to get a 'good' build? I feel this system is downright pants, why should I need to farm every spare time I get to get decent builds. I have nothing against farmers and I do occasinally farm. But I just feel the farmers who like to farm a lot have a edge over people who dont farm, espicially in PvP. Why?

    You dont HAVE to do anything. Why do some people in life drive Porsche's and others walk?

    A lot of people dont want distracting chat messages while in the arena.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    How about a compromise then, a /noexternalchat command or something? Because you say a lot of people don't want distracting chat messages while in the arena, while I say that don't want to be cut out of chat because they want a quick spar with a friend.

    As opposed to a quick spa.

    Yea that sounds like a plan

    Oh right, cos its nice and balanced now of course.


    [/ QUOTE ]


    No. that's why i said even more unbalanced PvP.


    I'm not against damage "nerfs" but the powers that be have been a little heavy handed with that bat imo.

    [/ QUOTE ]


    Yea i suppose they are going a bit hard on blasters, its a shame they have to resort to damage nerfs at all really.

    I would rather just see one of the melee boostings suggestions that have been put forward implemented. Like close gap fast or add a little bit of range to melee attacks like knock out blow has now for example.

    So again, if those numbers and my guess is correct. Making an AT that was designed from the start to be a high damage dealing squishy, no longer do that said damage is a good thing?

    Lets brake all the other AT's too then? Even more unbalanced PvP ftw!

    Blasters are useless with these numbers. Heck with these numbers i'd be willing to bet it's the lowest damage AT in PvP with no protection and low HP.

    Hooray for any boost for melee chars.

    Hmmm. Not sure about that at all Ravens. I use it constantly, so do most leaders when we're searching for extra members. I think its because CoX uses so many instances. There's no point shouting on Broadcast really, half the teams are likely to be outside of range. So I stick my LFT flag on and I know that when a leader does /sea chances are I'm going to be top of the list.

    The only places I've noticed Broadcast LFTs happening a lot and superceding flags is Freedom. I think anyone on lower population servers other than the US big two use the LFT / Search system more than relying on Broadcast.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I agree, i dont know anyone that bothers with broadcast to find a team,you see the odd player asking on the way to missions but not many.

    An improved search system can only help things.

    Theres also several thousand super heroes who dont have shields, did you forget them?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    No, unlike you forgetting the ridiculously famous one who does. The one so famous that even in a genre renowned for its resurrections still made actual headline news when he was killed.

    Why don't you complain about Claws next, that's restricted to even fewer comic characters than shields, and was placed in entirely so people could pretend to be Wolverine. Oh and then Dark Melee, does that even exist outside Paragon City? And Spines. Actually, no point, it barely even exists in Paragon City as well.

    [/ QUOTE ]


    No mate i didnt forget that ONE super hero who had a shield.

    And as for the rest of that drivel, well, whatever.

    There are two iconic titans of comics; Superman and Captain America. One of them uses a shield, the other asked if he could have one of his own when got to use it.

    The idea that shields aren't for superheroes is just plain dumb, it's a statement that doesn't just fail based on the evidence, but also thematically.

    Anyway im not saying shields are bad im just saying its a shame we couldnt have had a few more modern looking ones.

    The nearest thing to a primitive (stone age) shield is the Ishlangu carried by Zulu warriors. It was made from an Ox hide stretched over a wood frame.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Hang on a sec mate, i apologise for the "cave man" generalisation, as it seems to have upset all the budding historians.

    Let me put it another way, this is a super hero game, set in the most part in the present/future.

    I was just passing an opinion that we might have now got enough "days gone by" content.

    I was trying to point out that while some shields could no doubt be construed as based on past events others are not.

    In fact I don't see a sing;le shield that I would take as that primitive, the oldest there looks to be Celtic, possibly Bronze Age but certainly not cave men.

    Besides how you tell the story is far more important than what props you use. I wonder how many BS scrappers, axe or mace tanks (not even looking at Katana or Ninja blade) have a weapon that is as modern as they are? Yet each is old tech. Or ancient weapons weilded for the good of modern peoples.

    The devs are giving us tools to realise new stories its that simple. Yes you can just take it at face value but that I think is your loss.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Thanks for that, only trouble is i dont play this for stories or history lessons i play this because its a super hero game, thats it nice simple bash this bash that.

    And the current trend towards past era's just dosent float my boat, it is after all my boat to be floated.
