Obsidius

Welcome to the Player Questions section, where players ask other players questions.

This means that Positron will reply to your post at about half past never.

(Generally, he won't reply to bait posts anyhow, but especially not here.)

Jack is the guy who blames NCSoft for developer cuts post CoV.

How the hell would I know how many people here play WoW on the side?

There again, why pander to the gaming world in general when you can just make an announcement to your existing audience and forgo inciting potential new customers?

Fixed!

That in fact may be a good reason not to announce anything, since he may not want the message to be glossed over in the wake of Blizzard's announcement, BlizCon, PAX, etc.

Exactly. For the default path, you should be able to find COSTUME files (which can be parsed/ edited in Notepad and such) in:
C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\Costumes\costumename.COSTUME

Correct. For example, if you've crafted Draconic Wings for a character, use them in his/ her costume, and save the costume, your other character must have Draconic Wings in order to use the imported costume file. Also, the character must be the same model type (Male/ Female/ Huge).

Edit: However, if you're talking about trading costume part recipes, you can do that with a direct trade or through the Market (to the highest bidder). However, you can only trade costume RECIPES. Once the recipe is crafted, the piece is added to your character at that point, meaning you can no longer give/ sell it to another character.

So, are you implying a conspiracy, implying favoritism, or just asking for condolence? I'm a little bewildered by your message.

Wait, there's money in this game? Do I get it from robbing the bank, or catching robbers? And here I've been a dupe using Influence or Infamy this whole time. Why influence people when I can just bribe them?
They haven't adjusted our mail system to do this because they can't figure out what a "convient" is, unfortuantley. Unless you're talking about a convent, in which case I'm not sure what nunneries have to do with the transfer of cash, unless nuns have taken up banking.

Also, something about coding, IIRC from what Ghost Falcon said at Comic Con. You know, the minor trivialities

I'll try to get some pics of the PR base for your consideration. The SG is pretty vacant these days, but the base is still a testament to our hard work

Here here. With their decision in I15 to reduce the amount of grinding required for badges, I'm hoping for this and other positive changes.

I just say get it out of the way and give us a total of 10 slots, so long as the database can handle it.

I know exactly when it will happen!

Wave 5 is scheduled for [@Brewha] [Lv50-Necro/Dark][Lv50-Spines/SR][Lv50-Thug/Dark][Lv50-Martial arts/Shield] [Lv50-Sonic/Storm][Lv50-Rad/Rad][Lv50-War Mace/Granite][Lv50-Ice/Pain][Lv50-Fire/Psi] [Lv50-SS/Fire][Lv50-Granite/Energy][Lv50-Fort.][Lv50-Earth/Elec][Lv50-AR/Thermal] [Lv50-Energy/Will][Lv50-Energy/Kin][Lv50-Ninja Blade/Dark][Lv50-Crab][Lv50-Fire/Energy] [Lv50-Empathy/Energy][Lv50-Cold/Archery]AH CRAP I'M BEING TRAMPLED BY YOUR SIG!!!!

IMO, I think it was because of the relatively sparse amount of content since Issue 12. Issue 12 gave us that excellent zone Cimerora, the Midnight Squad arcs, and the Imperious TF. But since then, the amount of content has been, arguably, sparse.

Issue 13 gave us some additional arcs, helping to fill out Cimerora and the Midnight Squad, but was mostly QoL improvements. Sure, we got Merits and the much-debated PvP changes, but not a lot of story content.

Issue 14 gave us the MA, which was a mixed bag of wonderful player-made arcs and horrible exploitation of MA vulnerabilities. But besides player-made content, no conical story (except the MA tutorials).

Issue 15 was almost completely the Reichsman TF/ SF, with a smattering of QoL changes. One story from two different sides (arguably), but that's it for story content.

That synopsis isn't to take away from the difficulty and hard work in implementing things like the MA, costume change emotes, PvP revamp, Merits, and other systems and QoL improvements, but an MMO needs story to maintain interest, and people are thirsting for more conical content. And now, with Issue 16, we're getting Power Customization... but no story content, again.

Players get their hopes up because, with few exceptions, we've had quite a dry spell of content for quite a few issues. Between Issue 13 and Issue 16 , we'll have had one TF, one SF, and a handful of story arcs - but nothing like we got with the Midnight Squad, Cimerora, or the RWZ before that.

And it's mostly because most of the story bandwidth is being funneled into GR, which users will need to pay for instead of downloading for free as with the Issue updates.

This isn't a criticism or an endorsement - just an observation.

Seems likely according to the MMORPG.com article.
