Quote:In addition to global channels, I also suggest trying Server Forums. Assuming one has the luxury of scheduling these things in advance.Originally Posted by brophog02
I hear you there. Not much fun for me to spend all of my time avoiding playing the game. I'd rather die 9 million times than do a speed run.
That said, the new content is getting much harder and that makes these kinds of tactics less common. Yes, the Apex and Tin Mage have been run extremely fast, but we're talking highly optimized builds doing it. Sheer difficulty has curbed some of the speedsters.
Luckily, there are people that do like to run TFs casually, and you may be able to find them on your server's global channel, or start your own TFs with it being known that it's a casual run and not a speed run. -

When did I say I refused to use the auction house? I refuse to engage in Marketeering - buying things other people put on the market, playing around with them (either by gathering them or by crafting them) and selling them back to the market. I use the auction house to sell things I earn constantly, as I have referenced at least twice in this very thread when speaking of purple invention recipes.
I want to kill lots of dudes, get my boosts, and once in a while beat up a hero. Why am I wrong? What part of that is not what this game is about?
There are a lot of threads explaining how. -

So the person screaming the loudest for change has already categorically stated that she would not even test the new raids simply for the fact that they are raids and simply refuses to use the auction house. That and she refuses to use AE to do missions as well.
They shouldn't.Quote:I ask: why should the devs base their future design decisions around someone who simply refuses to use the content they already provided in the past? -

Oh, we're discussing flipping stuff on the market. I assumed you meant from drops.
I also already stated 400 mil wasn't much. So....read? -
Quote:If, for whatever reason, you play at off hours, and have trouble finding a Task Force because you refuse to play on a higher population server, that is one hundred percent your fault.Originally Posted by Doctor_Gemini
Let me put it this way. I can eventually participate in incarnate content. Getting geared up for it, however, requires a reasonable path. If the only reasonable way to get the gear required to run the content is to change servers, then the problem is with the system. Requiring a certain segment to change servers is ludicrous.
And if there are that many people that share your problem, why don't yall just team up?
To me it seems like you are the outlier here, which means you(not everybody else) should change something. -
Quote:If I were in the devs shoes I would set it high knowing full well I intended to lower just to get the positive reaction and good will of the players.Originally Posted by Vox Populi
It's smarter to start with a high number of shards and lower it as deemed necessary. Then everyone will cheer the wisdom of the devs. If they started low, then decided they need to bump the number up, the boards would throw a fit.
Same result, opposite reactions. We're pretty simple. -
Quote:Maybe on the lower population servers. Maybe. I'll concede that point simply because I abandoned Victory years ago and moved to Freedom.Originally Posted by Doctor_Gemini
This has to be one of the silliest arguments I've ever seen. Finding a team is never an issue, anyway. Finding a team that wants to run a TF is.
If you can't start a TF on Freedom or Virtue, that is your fault. -
Quote:Then switch to a busier server. If you're already on Freedom or Virtue and can't find a team, you're doing something wrong.Originally Posted by Doctor_Gemini
Try seeing how many of those TFs you manage to get on between midnight and 6 AM PST, and have other things in your life than playing a game that keeps you from playing more than 2 or 3 of those hours 1 or 2 nights a week.
If you refuse to use a busier server, that is your fault for limiting your options. -
Quote:There has been absolutely zero indication to think WST is temporary. Multiple places it has been stated the WST will change every Tuesday.Originally Posted by Signpost
Of course, we don't know if WST will still be there when i20 rolls out..
The older Task Forces commonly take multiple hours. The newer ones, not so much. That is a sign of a poor team.Quote:Originally Posted by Eiko-chan
I have never been on a TF shorter than 90 minutes in my entire play history. I don't like doing speed runs (I get lost and disoriented when you skip around objectives) and I tend to run slower than "steamroll" teams.
Usually, TFs I've been on have taken 2:00 to 2:30.
Once again you are limiting your options. I'm starting to find it amusing that you dislike how long getting the very rare alpha slot will take you when you refuse to do anything to speed up the process.Quote:And no, I don't want you to invite me to your speed run. I'd be no better than a door sitter, and I'm not willing to be a door sitter. -

Quote:That's what happens when you intentionally limit your playing options.Originally Posted by Eiko-chan
I've been faced with that situation before in many MMOs (it's possible to get somewhere, but only through extremely excessive playing). I have always chosen to find a better place to spend my money instead.
The latest victim was the brand new superhero game. I could get somewhere playing that, but only by doing 5000 missions. I decided that wasn't worth it. I'm really hoping City doesn't end up the same way. -
Quote:Good point.Originally Posted by Nihilii
Mostly people claiming "Shield sucks until the softcap at level 50 with billions of influence thrown at it" over and over, despite how many times the argument has been debunked.
What I have noticed is people often think something is either stupid strong(like a decked out /SD scrapper), or it sucks. To me, that is just idiotic way of thinking. There are more possibilities than the two extremes. -
Quote:If you insist on limiting your options, it is completely your fault when attaining the very rare alpha slot takes you an extremely long time.Originally Posted by Eiko-chan
That I refuse to do. When I'm playing the game, I'm playing the game, not sitting around crafting. I have my Field Crafter badge, and I'm done with any crafting that isn't directly related to enhancing my characters.

Quote:I have a few issues that you need to fix now.Originally Posted by Zwillinger
There's a lot to learn, so I'll be counting on you guys to help me learn what's important to the Community and where you feel we should be working to improve as a team.
1. Dude, where are my donut sticks? I've been craving them for like two days.
2. There needs to be a section dedicated to me. We all know I deserve it. Why hasn't it happened yet?
3. Too many people can't purple out their warshades, especially the casual player. Broken.
4. Todd McShay has the Cowboys drafting a defensive end with the first pick. Why? Did he not see our old offensive line last year? You need to mod his post before Jerry Jones reads it and gets a stupid idea(probably too late for that).
5. See #2
6. Loyalist or Resistance? This is important. We need to know if you're a patriot and support our savior Emperor Cole or if you are treasonous scum. Which is it?
7. Where do babies come from?
8. First character to level 50? AT and powersets please.
9. Why won't Ms. Liberty call me back?
10. SEE #2!!!!!!!!
I guess that is all for now. Welcome to the boards!

I get most of it, but what is the denial about shield?
-
I approve of these changes. Though what is the typical price of that Panacea IO?
-
A bit over the top reaction, but overall I'm with Lucky on this

Usually if forced to pick I would take the Scrapper. But I have in the past intentionally picked a Stalker over a Scrapper just to irk annoying know it all team members.

I wanted to post the comic link in the other thread. But I couldn't post the link to the My Little Pony comic there since it was locked because My Little Pony isn't a comic.

Quote:That logic, as you have explained it, doesn't make sense. Could you expand?Originally Posted by Toony
I find power prolifiration fairly unnecessary now due to being able to take any AT to either side.
I'd rather it be put on the back burner. -
Quote:Pain Domination is already on blue side thanks to GR. Just sayin.Originally Posted by Traegus
to OP, just to point out, Pain Domination was the red side version of empathy, or replacement for theme reasons..... seeing as how they wouldn't port empathy to redside, why would the whole new set they created to replace it be ported over to blue?
this goes along with people requesting dark miasma as a control set.....
i'm all for proliferating every powerset to every APPROPRIATE archetype, but neither of the above make that cut.... -
Quote:I fully support this.Originally Posted by DSorrow
Maybe they could add two copies of the auras into the scrapper secondaries: one with taunt component and one without, obviously coded so that you can only pick one or the other.
