Quote:One thing we did learn about about the Silence is they are parasites. They don't develop thier own technology, they get thier hosts to develop it for them. So, if they are developing a tardis-like time machine, the technology must have come from a previous host species. I.e. The Silence previously parasitised the Time Lords...
And the Silence obviously wanted a Timelord, probably to work whatever time machine they were cobbling together... -
Sounds like a "shush" moment to me.
Easy to see how it could arise when copy-pasting the powerset. Gauntlet AoE was disabled for a long time because of the issue of procs benefiting from the AoE (needlessly IMO, it's not as if tanks would have been OP). -
Quote:The Silence may not have been there for 1000s of years prior to the universe being rebooted. They may have engeneered thier own existance in last seasons exploding Tardis. Thus "Silence will fall" can indeed mean "Silence will come to be".My question is, when one of the Silence said "Silence Will Fall" what on earth was it referring to? I can't imagine that it was talking about the future demise of its race at the hands of some hypnotised humans, nor that it was using the phrase in the traditional sense of "small s" silence falling.
Equally, using it as a sort of play on words combination to mean The Silence will occur/come to be/etc doesn't really make sense either because they're already there and have been for thousands of years.
Am I just missing something really obvious? -
A few things worth mentioning:
Dr Renfrew is clearly based on Renfield (Dracula).
Greystrike Ophanage is apparently a nod to Greystoke Hall (Tarzen), but they get thier signs made by the same people who did Arkham Asylum.
Possibly the most sureal moment of the episode was the disapearing door window, through which we briefly saw Frances Barber with a cybernetic eyepatch. She will be back.
A throught: The Moff is recreating characters from the Dr Who he grew up with. Rory = Harry Sullivan, Canton = the Brigader. -
Antimatter wanted to be a spoiler, not help Primal Earth.
Heroes are already alerted. Villains are already alerted.
Who else might want to know? The Rikti.
So who might the "she" be on Primal Earth? Kelly Uqua. -

Quote:Hypothesis: This is because Amy has told the Doctor what happens, as she was told to by the Silent. It is, actually, a trap.There's a few things to note from this story:
1) The Doctor is expecting the 'Impossible Astronaut' and ensures that they don't interfere with what happens.
Quote:4)The Doctor's future self has engineered these events to happen and requires the American ex-FBI to be a part of it.
Quote:I'm looking forward to the second part of this, but I just know Moffat will have the mid-season cliffhanger be a doozy...I suspect it'll end with the Doctor's death.... -
Just been watching "confidential", and there are a few points confirmed:
The death will be resolved over the whole series. And yes, it really is him and he really is dead.
We will find out who River is this series.
Amy's pregnency is central.
I do have a few more hints, from Radio Times, but they are spoilerish. -
Well, Churchill was more of a charactature - he didn't get that fat until well after the war.
Oh, and Canton Everett Delaware III was played by Mark Sheppard. British born, but most of his TV credits are on US shows. I would like to see more of this character. -
Quote:They still have 200 years of Doctor left...I sincerely doubt that. Unless the BBC are happy to end their franchise there.
Quote:Either way, somehow there'll be a way out of it hence why it didn't shock me in any way. -
-
Quote:The twist is, it won't be any of those.Actually, it was so obviously going to be one or more of the above I didn't even worry about it and went straight into trying to figure out how they were going to do it.
Oh, and the spaceship - wasn't it the same as the one in The Lodger? -
Did you notice the difference in the reaction to Rory from the older Doctor and the younger Doctor? The younger Doctor is almost as pleased to see Rory as he was Amy, but the older Doctor really didn't want to know.
Me thinks something is going to happen that makes the Doctor not like Rory...
Oh, and Mickey-the-idiot qualifies as a male companion, even if only for a couple of episodes. And Wilfred Mott was given official companion status.
I think the River arc will be resolved this series. (Probably River in the space suit) -

Praetorian Hamidon is the Well of the Furies.
And Primal Hamidon is the letter writer. -
Some of the purple sets are much cheeper than others. The Confuse set is cheep, as is the Stun set, and the pet set isn't all that expensive either compared to the damage sets.

Just thought I would mention, if there are players still having trouble with this guy, the Toxic Dagger invention temp power has -regen.

Quote:It's certainly true that the more mobs you fight at once, the faster you can collect shards. Thus, +0/x8 is better than +4/x1. This also increases your chance of earning purple recipes, and Vanguard Merits if you are fighting Rikti to exchange for Gra'i Matter.It doesn't even have to be a blaster if you prefer scrappers. I'm mostly curious if there's any time:shard differences between x8 (which is essentially equivalent to a TF capable team short of the componet end reward) and those that play on a theoretical "average intended use" meaning someone with average builds playing average difficulty with whatever radio/tip/contact mission they come across. Of course assuming farmers/min maxers aren't the majority of the current playerbase.
And yes with accumulated incarnate boosts, it will get better. But seeing a baseline helps and we can always just take that baseline and assume we can shave off time because of increased capabilities. -
Quote:Sounds like it. I've had two of one mission playing on 0/x3. On 0/x8 I avarage just under one per mission. Unless you have "bosses whilst solo" off?I have gotten a grand total of zero shards while playing solo +0 to +1/8. I'm lucky if I get 2-3 shards per TF. There's been times that I've gotten completely shafted and only gotten 1.
Seems my luck with getting purple drops has transferred to shards now.
I did only get one of the Kahn TF just now though. -

The rewards for the BAF may be a bit unpredicatable, since it has been stated that they will be based around a "player contribution system" and they can produce weird outcomes.
-
It's not extreme though.
I reckon I could solo a Notice in about a month (playing 1-2 hours a day).
