  1. I thought of Cimerora, it would be a better looking place to do a screenshot, but not everyone can get in. You need to do the entry arc, and I think there's still a level 35 minimum level.

    Obviously a PVP zone wouldn't work, so that just leaves RWZ.

    Or because of the risk of transmogrification.
  4. Damn, missed it by one day. I didn't think they'd release it on the anniversary, I figured they'd do it the day before.

    Oh well, congrats Leandro.
  5. Keep in mind if you want to use ultra mode a laptop video card will not be enough. A decent laptop should be fine to run at normal settings, but there are no mobile video cards that will run ultra mode. You may be able to run some Ultra mode options like reflections at low settings, but no shadows or high detail. However, as you've seen, getting a good mobile card will bump the price up to $1000 or more.
  6. Yeah, I don't mind stealthing TFs. The speed runs can be fun too if you're in the right mood. A real speed run can be an adrenaline boost racing from objective to objective a fast as possible.

    Sometimes though I'd rather slow down and take my time. Especially if there's someone who hasn't done the TF before. I know for me, it took months before I got to do a proper non speed LGTF.
  7. Yay, I should be able to make it to this. My parents wanted to be done and headed home by 6PM today anyway.
  8. Too bad I had to miss this.

    The team took a vote at the beginning and the majority voted for xp, not speed. The stealthers determined the most direct point to objectives and we fought everything in our way.

    Thanks everyone for a fun TF!
    I like that method, scout but don't stealth.

    Liberty Picture!

    I should be able to make that one.

    Liberty Picture!

    Yay, for a free weekend. Unfortunately, my parents are in town to help with some renovations so I won't be on much this weekend. Not until Sunday night anyway.

    I too didn't make it for the picture, I was sleeping then.

    You also missed this part.
  12. Yay for open beta so we can finally see the new video. Great as always.

    It was worth it.
  13. Sorry Outlaw I already guessed that date. It looks like all the reasonable, and a bunch of unreasonable dates, have been picked already. Especially with i17 in open beta now.

    Yeah that sounds right, I think that was what he said.
  15. I think BaB mentioned soon after i16 came out that we can't copy the default colours using custom colours, not exactly. The best we can do is get close, probably closer with some powers than others. Something about the colour palettes working differently or something. I have no idea where that post would be though.

    I'd been looking forward to the event all week as I've never done that task force before, but had to bail just before the event kicked off due to an unplanned situation here at the ol' Hornet hive. Shucks and other comments.

    Apologies to Night Dawn's team. Hope I didn't cause folks problems.
    .
    No problem, I just hope it wasn't anything serious and that it's all taken care of now, you dropped pretty fast there.
  17. I'd guess the last week of April, but if I have to pick a specific day I'll go with Tuesday April 27th.
  18. As long as someone laughs, even if it is just you.

    Shouldn't that be "Different BAT time, same BAT channel"?
  20. I have the +perception IO in rage on my brute because I hate being blinded. Now I can continue pounding them even when they use smoke on me.
  21. I agree, how could Valor inflict such an awful experience on poor Fitz.

    "well 1 of course"
    "Ma'am are you calling me on the same line the modem is trying to dial out on...."
    "Oh......"

    I actually banged my head into the wall several times after that.
    So how deep is that spot now? Has it moved from dent to hole yet?
  23. The Devil's birthday? Is that a good thing or bad thing?

    Happy Birthday!
  24. Hmm, I don't have any free slots so I can't make a new character, or I'd try to join. If I do free up a slot I might be there.

    I'll try to show up as a spectator at least, since I missed this last year.

    Also, regarding the alternative travel powers, none of those are available at level 1 anyway. I think the only alternative to sprint at that level is for someone else to SB you or something.

    And as for throwing in the towel - save it - you'll need it to keep your Maelstron shower pictures in line with the game rating.

    EDIT: By the way, it doesn't just have to be Maelstrom - Manticore, Foreshadow or Synapse would also be quite acceptable alternatives
    Or all of the above?
