  1. I can think of only one type of customization that would truly require an entire expansion and gobs of developer man hours to produce... especially if conversations at Comic Con last year still hold any water...

    Also, I was the guy who dropped the bio nuke... What? No one told me not to before we started

    Griefer

    It just wasn't necessary. If you had done it before we went in, I wouldn't have complained. With all the other things going on-screen, it was just a heavy lag trigger for me and some others.

    We regrouped. All good.

    Noted for the next run!

    Also Az, think I'll try to do the Beast Within the Mountain next, on this upcoming Sunday. Lowest level SF, but I've never done it. I'll nail down an exact date & time ASAP.

    Edited because I have a birthday party to attend on Saturday.

    So how was the LRSF for you yesterday Obs?

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Not too shabby, but I thought you would know, yes?

    We only had the one team wipe on the last map, but my darn pets wouldn't stay at range, leading to a ton of re-summoning. Also, I was the guy who dropped the bio nuke... What? No one told me not to before we started
  6. Thanks for the meeting Az Anyone from any SG who's a Triumph vet is invited to host or help with an event
  7. Sorry Baba, Azrial gave me your message, but I was already done with it by the time you logged in :? Wanted to post yesterday but work was busy. Thanks for the offer though. Maybe you can join me for the next round, or when I get my Crab to 45
  8. Hmmm... how about tonight? 4 or 5 pm PDT? Or ASAP?

    Not what he's saying.

    Participating in the current one will give you a BETTER chance to get into future ones, not the ONLY chance.

    True, plus there's other stuff to test. But, meh, was looking to skip this round
  10. Well this strikes me odd. I don't want to test I15 the TF/ SF because I want to leave something to do when I15 goes Live, but now my future participation in potential closed beta my rest upon testing I15? I hope that purposefully not testing certain things won't detract from my previous testing and reporting efforts :/

    I believe Crockpot, in his Speedo-laden glory, was the first to set the trend.

    Yes, that seems reasonable.
  13. I'll see if I can make it Saturday, but no promises. Don't know what we do since the SG is running light atm, but maybe we can host a party somewhere.

    Have you tried the fire grilled quesadillas at Chili's, they're pretty good. The steak and portobello is still my favorite.

    Chicken Tetrazzini!

    [/ QUOTE ]We used to have Chilli's out here, then one day, poof, they just vanished. Like, no major news, no 'Oh, the business is in trouble,' just poof, the signs were pulled down and the restaurants emptied. It was really quite surreal.

    I just hate trying to build up my nest egg and seeing profit going *poof* because the game needs a money sink

    Come on, this is 2nd grade stuff
  17. I'll be pulling one arc, revising another, and making a new arc come I15.
  18. I know, just can't decide what I want more. Might have to take a look at a few sets to see what I want to do.
  19. 1) Travel Power at lvl 6 (just got & used this last night )
    2) Nemesis Staff
    3) Sand of Mu
    4) Assemble the Team
    5) Base Teleporter

    My Crab Spider is a super-tight build. Like many, I forewent a travel power altogether, since I could only squeeze Combat Jumping into the build. However, as of last night, I respecced him to move some powers around, and to also skip straight to SJ at lvl 6 Not sure I'll use this in every build, but it sure came in handy, and might do well on my PvE builds.

    Edit: how could I forget about Assemble the Team? So darn useful!
  20. Well, I figure either way I'm set, because what doesn't go into Channelgun can always fit into Longfang

    Thanks you all for all the posts. I hope this thread helps people with similar issues. After talking it over with my wife, we have decided to cancel our accounts and leave the mmo market for a while. We just couldn't get passed how NC Soft has chosen to deal with this issue. The fact remains, they handed people the tools, written directions, and let people do as they pleased. Now they want to punish customers because the dev team put out an unfinished product. Again thank you all for your help and good hunting.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    They handed us some tools so it's not our fault for using them for things that we're not supposed to do? I don't agree with that, "personal responsibility" and so on.

    Because of the above this is an unfinished product? I don't agree with that?

    Not trying to flame you or anything, just calling things as I see them.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Agreed. That's like blaming a car manufacturer because someone used his/ her auto to wantonly run over pedestrians. There is an amount of common sense required from the operator to understand how to use a tool, and understanding the laws and "what not to do."

    Now, regarding the definition of farming arcs and where the line was drawn, I'll agree that the line is vague, and probably for a reason (because if hard numbers were given, players would get as close to the edge as possible). However, as Mod8 suggested, the best recourse is to open a case with CS in the case of a banned arc, to get things straightened out. It's not a foolproof system, but rarely do such things exist.
  22. I think you just convinced me to keep the one I picked up the other day for my Crab Spider. Which is a tough call considering the market price for it Hello Channelgun!

    That was your first time ever running Temple of the Waters on Saturday?

    To be blunt, why should I care? This supposed bug is something I rarely notice, and hasn't lessened my enjoyment of my Kheld, and is therefor trivial to me. Why should I care about your "torches and pitchforks" movement?
