MCG_Warface

They are discontinued until further notice.......hopefully I will be in the closed beta and I will write a new guide.

Cant remember..........I need the tier 2 arcane power generator.(the same one as the turbine)......whats it called, what ingrediants, and how do I get access to build it?

Can you guys point me to the technique to get an object to tilt perm at 45 degrees. I remember someone posting that along time ago.

Yah Yah......bases, I know the devs love to hear me babble about them, hehe.

Just one tiny request.........if not too hard..........and can be done during lunch break. I promise I will send you lobster, cheetoes, and a case of Dr Pepper if you guys hook me up.



Can you code the arcane blocks........to be like desks......i.e. stackable. Just give them whatever property you give the desk. (Sounds easy right! :P)


I swear I will be your puppet for life devs!

The more I see the possibilities.

I think right now, most of all.........I want to adjust lighting just like I can in the base editor (and the ingame music). That can go along way in setting the mood of the mission.

Man I hope something like that is coming.

Hope everyone is doing well. I know I havent been around much but I finally got my internet up again. I am still on both servers but wanted to share something I have been working on.

Just wanted to offer up an AE for you I did based on a Warface backstory (some may remember the zombie invasion fan fiction about FUSION).

"A Zombies Dream" # 301889 -break from Maniac SLammers
Parameters: max xp (Lev 51-52 bosses) Autosk to 45

Storyline goes: The Zombie Lords were an ancient race devolved from undead Titans.....hence Adamastor and his kin. One of his brothers (The Shadow King) had designs on stealing Adamastors eye.....known for its powers of "seeing" the future.

In this off kilt story.....The Shadow King has stolen the eye with the aid of his Shadow Lord bosses. Admastor has attempted to retrieve the item but was overwhelmed.

A totem visits you in the night as you are the most powerful force available for such a task............(or at least available :P) -------he promises you payment for such a deed.

The only thing you desire, is the use of an eye.......or the destruction of it.

As you move in with your team, you will find 51-52 bosses (Dark Knights, Flesh Knights, Zombie Knights), 51-52 Elite Bosses (Shadow Lords) ............and finally ADAMASTOR, taken hostage by the Shadow Kings forces.

You can:

A. Leave him there and kill the mobs like you read about......for insane xp.

or

B. Tackle the Map at level 5 vice level 4 (I recommend level 4 as the auto sk 45 feature seems to flip out on 5)and save Adamastor. If you do this...........the Shadow King will spawn...........and prepare for a MONSTER bash...........oh, Admastor will help you.......

It will be interesting.......whether you die.........or live depends on who you take and BIG A CAN OF WHOOP A 5 5 you bring to the table..........


-Warface

Well if you make an Electric/STone............. and actually put money into it.......add tough and weave........... stir, You can tank ANY Hero, AV........ you are immortal and you can have fast recharge if built right

Thanks Grae!

Begs Ruby to make Warface a banner......I have art...... but noes banner

Haven't been on virtue long--came from Protector........I will finally be online more (Normally in evenings 7-9) now that I have fast internet again.

I have several lev 50 toons available for services, though I will do AE, I am at the point where I am ready to get back into Strike Forces, Task Forces, badge hunting etc.:

On my account, EM/Inv Brute (Warface) and Inv/EM Tank (Warface) for PVP (does anyone still PVP lol)---:P ---yah Im a naughty phase shifter!

For PVE: I have an 50 Elec/Stone Brute (Septimus Bane) (if he dies--or cant destroy an entire spawn himself, regardless of spawn type I make myself do 100 pushups as incentive!)........... and on Hero Side I have a 50 Fire Kin (Revalations).


My girlfriends account has a few as well.... 50 Fire Kin Corruptor (Villainess) and a soon to be EM/Stone Brute........... Hero side a Cold Defender and another Fire Kin.

Global is @TheRealWarface Just give me a shout

So, in other words...this IS just another "AE Ruined MY Game" thrtead. Yep.

[/ QUOTE ] Yes because these statements that I made "I think AE is a great thing, and has incredible potential. I also am not an avid fan of nerfing farms......and................If the devs nerfed this Incorrectly at some point it could SEVERLY limit our capability to simply make CHALLENGING missions for post 50 content.
..........." Just smacks of that.............. Because skimming is much easier-------but 20 points to you sir for the quick wit!

Happy BDAY!

Yay!

Let's all go an celebrate it by dressing in Hockey costumes, holding a cup of Tim Horton's Coffee, and flipping a Loonie!

[/ QUOTE ] I'm an American......My first time in Canada, with my Canadian girlfriend last year. When the guy at a coffee shop (no not Tim Hortons :P) asked me for a loonie....or a toonie.......... I couldnt quit laughing. I keep thinking bugs bunny is going to pop in. I dont think he was impressed with me

We all know the devs are blaster lovers..........

hehe

I really don't care about the rest of the thread (OP, do we have to do this...again? Your thread is not unique, your position is not either, give it up)



[/ QUOTE ] Thanks for reading the entire thread, and then passing judgement.......if you read on maybe you would understand my position more. I am not trying to be unique......just trying to learn a bit more about the situation.

Are you a moderator? If ya dont want to read YET another thread.............then you shouldnt have came in. Pretty simple in my opinion, but you couldnt .........could you.

Give what up mate? Have I posted numerous threads about AE trying to get something modified? Nope........the only other posts I have made on AE are questions about a particular mission I made that I thought was banned but was only bugged..............so give up what? My first post?

My post was not inflamatory, nor was it crying........I think I posed some relevant questions. My title wasnt meant to be inflamatory either........just that I wanted that stated up front.

LOL now thats a great story! Damn NPCs!

This one would make a million times posted in these kind of threads:

pohsyb was asked:
[ QUOTE ]

Q:Is there a limit to how many AVs/EBs can be in a mission?
A:Yes, the amount of spawn placements on the map.


[/ QUOTE ]

As has been stated before there are many reasons that you my not think of that the use of this great feature and it is intended. Castle's all AV map comes to mind. WAI.

[/ QUOTE ] Actually thanks for that Darth, but I have to ask you. Why then can people report something as a farm and it get banned? Seems like the banning contradicts that statement he made. Im being serious, it just makes me wonder what their actual policy is. Im not trying to be obtuse (or sneaky as I think a couple thought in the thread, I meant the thread with sincerity, nothing else.... btw.

I really do just want to know.

All excellent points. I didnt think of the file size issue. I do believe in the risk vs reward issue, though I dont know how you attain that in a way that doesnt hurt the capability of the editor or ruin gameplay.

Nor is it an I hate farms thread.

I think AE is a great thing, and has incredible potential. I also am not an avid fan of nerfing farms. I personally think that people should play the game they want. If they love farming all day...........then have at it. If you love rich detailed storylines......I am all about it.


I know that if you want to find normal teams..........you can join a supergroup, join a global channel, get on a more populated server and you can find NORMAL teams.


I do think though there are options to modify the Arch Editor if you want to limit exploitations without ruining the editor. Can a toon go 1-50 in a couple days before the AE came along? certainly........is it easier now? Yes.

If you wanted to do it, I would look at what is reasonable.

The question you have to ask yourself is this. Should EVERY SINGLE spawn in an AE mission be an all boss spawn if the designer choses to design it that way---especially with everyone being autosidekicked?

I am not saying that yes or no is the correct answer. That is for the devs to answer, not me, though I am a paying customer like all of you. I have an opinion but I do not impose my opinion on others in a manner that essentially says "play the game like me"

Heck I have jumped on these farms before, most of us would be lying if we said we never have.

I am worried though, that excessive complaining can breed overreaction sometimes.

If the devs nerfed this Incorrectly at some point it could SEVERLY limit our capability to simply make CHALLENGING missions for post 50 content.

Example: All boss spawns. Or better yet all boss spawns and one AV in each spawn..........and allies that help you. Purpose: We all know the purpose. Is it wrong, I personally dont think so; could it affect our game in the long run? In small ways possibly but honestly I dont think terribly.

So how could the devs fix something like that without ruining the editor? IF they decided they wanted to?

What if they limited the number of ALL boss spawns in a single mission. Gave you essentially something like this:

You could have the max of four All Boss to all AV spawns.......then all other spawns have to have a mix of Boss, Lt, minions in a single mission.

So if you only made a custom character who is a boss or an AV, and you tried to save, it would give you an error and ask for lieutenants and minions.

For that to work though I would want to click on the boss and AV spawn locations, not simply say front middle or back. That doesnt work for all the maps.

Is something like that reasonable or would that be an uber nerf to the AE that limits you too much?

I am a big boy and dont mind the critique, and honestly I am a bit indifferent about the whole thing.

I just worry about what might be done to the editor at some point. I do like all the options............. and there may be an important storyline which necessitates having all bosses or all AVs in a story.

I dont know, it just seems like something might happen to the AE and I am worried what they will do.

Is it working as intended?

Maybe the best solution is to leave it AS IS. Let people simply report when they see something that is an obvious exploit, and let the creativity be allowed to the max.

I dont know, at level 50 in RV.......and IOd out........the majority of 1 v 1 blasters vs my EM/Inv Brute, I dont have a problem killing (Vet Nem staff and dark wand make the difference) ........... two blasters, one burning each side of my boodie............ that hurts. (Then again, I cycle, unstoppable, phase shift, and demonic. Without those.......yeah Id be dead.

And yeah...........I pop lucks too :P Is it skill to plan ahead when you know the numbers are against you (read % unresistable attacks---something I have been against but live with)? well if they die and I live....... sure heheh Is it fair? meh...... I play a villain :P


As far as the list........ I would put the ranged toons up top like the others.

Heavy Antibiotics worked..... one beer mixed with those.......got me a bit buzzed in Canada though......... Im such a wuss
