  1. I was undecided until Willpower allowed me to solo Ghost Widow with my Scrapper. It is now my top choice.
  2. Also, stop it je_saist. This is like two out of three times(when my subscription is active) that I've agreed with you. It's freaking me out and I don't like it.

Most of the main publishers, as a general rule of thumb, have been bamboozeled by Microsoft's marketing machine that there are no Linux gamers; that Linux users don't pay for software; that Linux users are pirates; and so on and so forth. For the most part, their clientele (us) isn't willing to stand up and correct those falsehoods.

    Let me put it this way. You want to see a PR rep eyes go wide white? Stop asking if they intend to produce a Linux client.

    Start asking when the street date is.

    Then when they say there isn't one, get up and leave the room saying they aren't worth your time. That gets their attention in a heartbeat. When the shock hits that they just lost a sale, that's when things start to change.
    I agree with this. The part I cut out was a bit dramatic for my tastes, but the message is good.

    Once developers and publishers realize that they don't need Microsoft to make great games, I will never use another Microsoft product again. I've already cut out Apple, really they don't make anything that special anyways. Now all that's left is for game companies to pull their heads out of their ***** so I can drop Microsoft in favor of a good open source OS.

    It's not just about instant gratification. I happen to value beating up bad guys more than bid creeping and multiple trips to the market.

    I would like both. That way everybody is happy.
  7. I fully support this suggestion. Hell I want this bad enough that I would pay twenty dollars for it(though I don't expect many others to feel the same way).

    I am very open to the idea that my very high level of annoyance(or nerd rage) is fueled by a bias towards the market.

    But objectively there are so many applications for something like this. I will no longer have to delete recipes/salvage mid mission and can instead put them on the market for 1 influence. I normally solo so this won't be an issue stopping mid mission.

    Or when I craft a hundred recipes at a time I can sit in my base and save myself countless loading screens.

    And there are other uses as well, those are just the two obvious ones for me. Others uses will vary.

    Revamp Teleport

    Bill I'm confused. When you type /loc it gives you the height coordinate. Or are you referring to the mini map?
  10. Something this awesome is too good to be a vet reward. So horse-**** to whoever made this decision.
  11. Iggy, I am impressed. Well done sir.
  12. Sorry to do this at the last minute, but I won't be able to make it. My subscription runs out tomorrow, and since I'm moving soon I won't be reactivating until I get to the new place and get my cable/internet up and running.

    I fully support this. Let me know if you plan on showing up drunk, and I'll do it too.
  14. I want in. Monday and Tuesday are probably fine if it's later in the evening. Around 9 or so Central Time. I'm not sure about Friday or Saturday yet, I won't know that until Monday or Tuesday when I get my schedule.

    I would be bringing either MunkiLord(DM/SR) or Judgmental Girl(FM/WP).

    I've done just the opposite. Maybe I should try running around w/ some lowbies and see how much I like it.
  16. Working on new build for MunkiLord, my DM/SR Scrapper. Would love some input from yall.

    Few things about the build:
    1. Planning on using the recharge/healing uncommon alpha boost.
    2. I'm not sure what power to take at level 20. No slots to devote to it, but I was thinking Dark Consumption in case I get end drained at some point. I don't currently use it on live.
    3. Smite. Not sure I would be better off with more damage enhancement in Smite or the Cloud Sense proc.
    4. After the soft cap I am most concerned w/ DPS. Any changes that help me raise my DPS will be strongly considered.
    5. This is my namesake character, therefore influence isn't a concern to me. I'll spend as much as I need to get maximum performance from him.

  18. The current system works fine for me. When doing +4 content I just look at my target box to see the rank or look at the mob itself to know what it is. Changing anything at this point will add a lot of complexity to a system I've been using for almost six years.

    so /unsigned

    So sad...

    I thought it was just me! Holy crap this mission was nerfed. It use to be intense and crazy when I was set to spawn for 6. Now it's just boring. Kinda like a mini hero respec trial. I'm a sad Munki....

    This blows me away every time it happens. I typically only play my 50s, so there are plenty of inspiration slots. When I'm teaming I don't understand not using them.

    I get not using them when trying some solo challenge(AVs, Pylons, etc.), but when teaming or general solo missions I pop them like a crack head on a bender.

    I completely agree. People that get pissed about the EOTM getting closed should get over it too.

I have been here since 2006 and already know how to play, and am pretty familiar with both sides of the game. If you do not agree, I am sorry but we're going to have to agree to disagree on this one.

    2. Has nothing to do with "showing that [I] am better, more clever etc" than the developer, or better than anyone. What it SHOWS is that the lower levels are not all that fun to me. They'll be more fun with inherent Stamina, true, but I don't find level 5 all that scintillating.
    I'm gonna have to agree with you here. The low levels do nothing for me except make me wanna log out. So I will continue to skip them on 99% of the characters I do them with.

    And I will do it in the most efficient way possible. The fact that other people don't like it won't change what I do. Regardless of who those other people are.

    Now if somebody doesn't like that they have two options:

    1. Get over it.

    2. Get pissed and complain.

    I highly suggest the first option because the second option means nothing to me. So to those of you that get pissed and complain, keep doing it. Or don't. Your feelings aren't really relevant to me.
  22. Happy bday Marcian! Hope it's a good one!
  23. Hmmm, maybe I should check out those VEATs now.

    Also, B_I, warshades are awesome.

    And this sums it up in a nutshell folks. Some people, like UberGuy and Golden Girl, don't think others should have multiple options simply because they like it as is.

    People wanting more ways to unlock incarnates are taking absolutely nothing from them. But they don't want us to have options just because it doesn't fit into their idea of how we should play.
