Why the heck do people keep doing this?!?!?

Just run through to the AE building and use one of the lowbie villain missions. There are a couple set up to mimic the typical sewer run. Use a little caution while heading to AE, and you should have no trouble getting there in one piece.

1 - AE farm to L23. Yes it's lame, but I wanted to get playing and I have guys I'm playing for real on another server.

Nothing wrong with that at all IMHO...

What about when the leader goes AFK inside a TF mission?

We had that happen on a positron once. We finished the mish before the final substation mish. We call came out, except the leader. We think he fell asleep at the keyboard. Called a GM, they couldn't do anything. So after waiting 15 min or so for the leader (who never did come out), we disbanded. On a faster TF it wouldn't have been a problem. But on something like Positron or Dr. Quarterfield...that's a REAL Painful way for a TF to end.

As a result...I haven't done a TF since.

[/ QUOTE ]

Why not just have everyone log out for the evening and come back the next day? I'm sure by that point the MIA leader would have logged, and the first one back on would get the star. You'd stay on the TF team, as long as there were at least 2 players left, and you could have completed the final mission.

I agree... I don't think anyone should get their hopes up too much at this point until more details are released.

If the expansion Going Rogue allows me to switch the "real" Paragon City from the Isles and vice versa the developers have a sale. If not and its an alternate "reality" I won't be buying.

If the dev intention of the market is to allow the free flow of goods from one player to another rather than allow for profiteering (which seems to be the case since they have added merits and tickets rather than increasing drop rates) then keep the markets separate is going in the opposite direction from that goal.

If Going Rogue puts you in an alternate "reality" complete with it's own self contained economy it will just further dilute the markets on both red and blue side since the total CoX population will be spread across 3 non-linked areas rather than 2.

This would seem to be poor economic planning on the game level on the devs part if so.

[/ QUOTE ]

This is what I am worried about. That it will just end up being essentially something like another co-op zone. I really hope I'm just being pessimistic here though.

Yep! Progress is definitely speeding up now.

Congratulations, Sil!

[ QUOTE ]
I think you may have to high of hopes for Going Rogue. I really doubt it will allow you to make a full transition to the other side but will instead place you in an alternate version with limiations ... but what do I know? I haven't seen anything to say one way or the other, I'm just keep my expectations low.

I'd be gone.. Without IO's and the market, this game would not have kept my attention for more than a couple months at the most.

Is there any way to change the default comments that pets make when issued commands?

thats the way it is on freedom

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, there's your problem right there!

[ QUOTE ]
Here is 5 minutes of broadcast on Freedom in Atlas 1 - color coded by -
level appropriate
hopefully level appropriate
farming related
Characters outside of the level range for Atlas


[/ QUOTE ]

The only problem I see here, is that you seem to feel that you are empowered to decide what is and is not appropriate use of the Broadcast channel, and that only certain level players should be allowed in Atlas Park.

Perhaps your ire would be better directed at the devs for placing a MA building in Atlas Park, and allowing players to level from 1-50 in MA. And perhaps your time would be better spent actually playing the game, rather than obsessing over what other players say in Broadcast.

Here's a tip for you: You can remove Broadcast from your chat tab if it bothers you so much. Or, you know, not hang out in Atlas maybe...

So what's the story with the rep badge? Was that info accurate? It sounded fishy to me.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, no. There are no requirements for a PvP recipe to drop other than to have a PvP kill with someone within -3 levels to yourself.

[/ QUOTE ]

So, just to be clear, is that up to a +3 or -3 level difference? For example, a level 30 and a level 33? Or is it like a normal PvE minion that won't drop anything if they are more than -2?

[ QUOTE ]
I'm there with you, Helios_Carnage.
I'm already actively doing so.

I'm also taking time to report players broadcasting for :: <ul type="square">[*]more members for AE farm teams[*]players broadcasting that they are looking for AE farm teams.[/list]
I send along the time, server, and side that they sent the broadcast message along with a cut-and-paste of their message and their global handle.

Needless to say if you say anything about PL-ing you're getting reported as well.

[/ QUOTE ]

OOH! OOH! Report me! Please?

*goes back to farming and PL'ing*

[ QUOTE ]
Oh for crying out loud im reporting this thread myself. It's obvious you people don't give a damn about what happens to the game and are quit happy to let it get ruined by famers destroying the AE with the farm stigma.

I don't understand how so many supposedly reasonable people can jsut be ok with this. It jsut goes to show the mentality of the forum users. You don't like to complain about anything. Anyone who doesn't believe the way you do is wrong. Anyone who has a problem with an aspect of the game is wrong. Oh unless it's something pre-aproved by the forum dev defence force.

[/ QUOTE ]

If many reasonable people have one type of opinion, and you have one that is opposite to that, what does that make your position?

[ QUOTE ]
Reporting it in itself doesn't get it banned. They look at the reported content before banning them. The report gives them a 'flag', if you will.

The fact that they are indeed banning farms makes it impossible for it to be griefing by reporting an arc as such.

Farm, don't farm, whatever. It doesnt matter to me, but implying that someone who reports farm missions is griefing is plain wrong.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, they don't. It is obviously an automatic process. If an arc gets enough complaints to push it over a threshold compared to how many votes it has, it gets banned automatically. It is then up to the player to appeal the lock.

Hm... I don't think I've farmed this thread for post count nearly as much as I could.

[/ QUOTE ]

don't bother post count badges are being removed in I15

[/ QUOTE ]

Not entirely.. You'll still get the first post count badge just for logging on to the forum and post one post.

[/ QUOTE ]

Fix't for you.

Post count is the number of post you made, not read.

[/ QUOTE ]

Nah.. Actually posting would require effort, and under the new guidelines of making sure that certain players can not achieve things that others cannot, it would be unfair to require that.

Have they been making finding a normal team in Atlas almost impossible? Have they been ruining a fantastic addition to the game by clogging the MA lists with pointless missions?

[/ QUOTE ]

What normal team in Atlas? A sewer team?

Honestly, if you are playing through normal content, how much of your time is spent in Atlas anyway before moving on? An hour or less?

And who put you in charge of deciding what is a pointless mission? I could say a mission with a crappy. half-baked story filled with spelling errors and a bunch of mary-sue custom critters &amp; sub-standard rewards is "pointless", but I wouldn't presume to tell another player they can't publish it.

So, what's a farm then? I'm curious what your criteria would be for reporting another player. Sure would be a turn-off to be a new player coming into the game after buying the MA boxed set and having to deal with spurious complaints from some other player on a self-righteous crusade against missions that don't meet their standards.

Why do people seem to be begging to get MA missions nerfed?

Heck, let's just get it over with and have all rewards in MA reduced by 75%...

My /SR has to go to pool powers to slot a Steadfast for +3% defense, it's not fair~!

[/ QUOTE ]

A more appropriate example would be if SR could not slot the Steadfast unique at all, unless it was paired with DM or Katana. In that example, DM/SR &amp; Kat/SR would get a benefit that other sets paired with SR would not.

This is what is happening with the RIP sets and MM's right now.

[/ QUOTE ]And again, the Recharge-Intensive Pet Damage sets were never meant for standard MM pets in the first place, so the analogy doesn't need to fit that well.

[/ QUOTE ]

OK, but what is the negative of allowing MM sets to accept them? If it is somehow overpowering, then no MM primary or secondary should be able to accept them. The only reason, as far as I can see, was that prior to the recharge change to pets, the RIP sets would have increased the recharge rate of the pets themselves. That is no longer the case.

What is wrong with giving players more options?

I tried to do other things : being about 40 I wanted to do Numina and the 34-43 respec. I didn't find any team in 4 days that wanted to do a Task Force. Now I think the game is broken as you have lots of difficulties finding a group just wanting to play for fun.

[/ QUOTE ]

So, why is it that I can find teams to run multiple TF's on any given day on a low population server like Protector? Joining or forming teams is not difficult on any server, if you simply put forth a bit of effort.

*Join your server's global channels
*Find an active SG
*Use the forum section here for your server
*Make friends in-game
*Set your search flag to Looking For Team

Do some or all of the above, and you won't have any trouble getting teams.

[ QUOTE ]
Another sad thing is that with the AE currency you can buy some Hamidon Goo or Mu vestment for 540 and sell them for 750000 influence easily, which totally unbalances the influence system.

[/ QUOTE ]

So, making rare items more available to players is a bad thing? I don't see it that way for some reason.

[ QUOTE ]
No need to do the respec mish as I can buy the recipe once each day of play ...

[/ QUOTE ]

Really? You are going to make roughly 80 million influence per day by running AE missions and using tickets to buy rare salvage? Let's say you are getting 1 mil per rare salvage. That comes out to 80 salvage X 540 tickets each, which comes out to 43200 tickets. While certainly possible, you're going to have to sink some serious time into that.

[ QUOTE ]
I hope they nerf the AE XP and stop selling those rare salvage.

[/ QUOTE ]

There have been enough nerfs already.. There is no need for more.

BRILLIANT!
