I7 changes:

1) Working on Oil Slick. I think I have the 'oil doesn't always light' bug fixed (hard to tell - it never failed on my box, but it was replicatable here.) I refered the 'wrong team in PvP zones' issue to programming.
2) Poison Gas Arrow -- this should work the same for all AT's now.
3) Archery: Fistful of Arrows, Rain of Arrows and Ranged Shot animations shortened.

I am just... just so happy!
I'll be playing the heck out of my Blaster on Champion when this rolls around!

Archery getting some love!

I mean seriously, what's the harm? It doesn't go towards an accolade, so it has no real effect on gameplay. It's just a little, shiney, and ultimately useless badge.

Surly some of these things could be fixed with a simple run through with a spell checker.

You should see far fewer typo's in powers with I7. Thing's like "it's" for "its" on the other hand, are still likely to crop up and be low priority fixes.

Ah, and my teacher said English was dieing.
Its alive, it's alive and well.

Oh... and before I forget.
If all you badge hunters haven't read this book. Do so, its freeing.
The Sneetches

And last but not least.
If at level 50 you can go and get the isolator badge. Just because my character has the Isolator badge, doesn't mean I don't want to do the mission.
... and have...ha, ha, two, ha, ha, ha, badges! Muuuhhhahahahaha!

Cuppa's been trying, but she has yet to be able to convince the devs to throw us a bone.

IF we were to ever add a way to get Isolator post-Tutorial, it would most likely be incredibly hard to get. Annoyingly hard. Irritatingly hard. There-would-be-a-zillion-people-asking-to-make-it-easier hard.

But IF we were to add it, it would be available nonetheless.

Oh, lord.

Down with Isolator, Up with people!
Lets see how long this thread lasts until it goes over-the-top.

So Castle likes chess, and Castle works on Game Development.

DEEP BLUE ANYONE?

Also what’s with all the angry posts?
States tells us two lines of information and we're jumping to conclusions. Let the man create first before we judge.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, obviously Statesman meant that we are able to invent things in our brand new (free) laboratories that each character gets, selectrively hidden in their apparement building where we get to choose to place whereever we want at any time!

And obviosuly he meant that we can invent things such as enhancements, new powers, new people, NPC killers, Stalker-proof armor, nuclear bombs, inspirations and anything else we desire!


DUH!

[/ QUOTE ]

Ohhhh I forgot to add my own ideas on top of what Statesman said. I see now! Its quite simple really.
NURF THE INVENTIONS! BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Skills are shelved.

Inventions? :-)

[/ QUOTE ]

No Loot, Yes Inventions.

Confused? Possibly.
When I played V&V ... set the way back machine to 80 something... I had a character that was an inventor and my GM and I had a great time playing it.

Here's hoping for the defect BOOOOM "side effect" Percentage!

Remove the isolator badge.

[/ QUOTE ]

Agreed. If it'll stop this ridiculous arguement they can have mine back.

Take it completely out of the game. Problem solved.

[/ QUOTE ]

Down with the isolator badge! Nurf it in I7!

Pax, when you quit ranting and can give me a LEGIT reason why my pre-i2 toons are being discrimnated against I'll start paying attention to your posts.

[/ QUOTE ]

Legit Reason? Your reason is right here! *Rips off my shirt* Look at this body! Flawlessly scupltured in service of our forums! Feel how the pulse with loyalty, how solid and serious they are! Feel how! If you don't believe me, then they'll make you believe! Feel!

Finally someone with some sense! LOL
Put this thread to bed!

Trenchcoats are announced.
Off topic?
I think not.

I think it would be great if one of the people you talk to in Outbreak TOLD you about the badge system and mentioned Isolator then new players could get it. ( this goes for CoV to and it's hiden badge)
As for older toons sorry I have to say I'm against it being given out to them ( and plz note my main doesn't have it) becuase then people would be whanting the other badges they missed after all if you get Isolator I should get another chance at the holiday badges I missed out on do to my net company chrashing over the holidays, or give me a chance to earn the badge for the 1st anvierssy. Note this is not a whine to get those badges this is a exp. of what people would start demanding

[/ QUOTE ]

Weren’t the Isolator Badge and Easter Egg of sorts? And if so, isn't telling us about the badge during Isolator kind of take the point away....
However having a Badge lesson, and perhaps an accolade and a gladiator lesson would be nice.

interesting... selling team space to 50's as examplers for badge opportunities...

Hmmmmnnnnnn....
Thanks for the advice to the noob.

"SMACK" snap out of it!

Now there's an IDEA! BADGE TRADING!!! Woo! Hoo!

oookay...
How much infl is it worth to you? Say... 100,000?
The price is too high.
Come on I don't have all day.
I'm thinking!
In five minutes I'm taking my business elseware.

Lookout! Its a Cape!
I thought I smelled spandex!

If I could, I would give you my badge.

I realize that my post from before sounded... offending to thoes who collect badges and that it is important to them.

Sorry if I offended. Didn't mean to.
To thoes who read peoples info... even the badges... thank you for taking to time to get to know my character. Hopefully we'll play some day and the Roll-play will be fun.

Last and not least...
Spawns still get stuck in walls.

Why are people so into badges? I think they are neat and all, and it's cool to see the BADGE popup.
Some badges give a bump or bonus, I understand not wanting to miss that, but Isolator? I mean, after a while you forget you even have it.
I'd much rather they spend the time on things like... making sure spawns don't get caught in mission walls... and making Archery a little more player-friendly... you know things that effect the PLAYING of the game itself.
Not every hero can experiance all the content. Ulysses will never experience Portal Farming, Herding, and other first year things. I can't say I've been active since Beta, the list goes on and on and I accept that. Why should badges be any different, espically when I can make like sixty alts on so many different servers.

And lastly, who pays attention to others badge lists? Honestly.

So.. ahh... why not just give the badge away? You know. If you were here before I2, why not?
And cookies, hand them out also. Cake and Cookies, Pie even.
Well, I guess you'd have to earn the Pie.

Point is.. I betcha' that Statesmen doesn't have an Isolation Badge. Does he care? I don't think so. He's beyond the badge.
Start a new Alt.. get the badge.

Anyone remember the old D&D cartoon?
Anyone remember the Cavalier?
Shield, Shield?
Nuff Said.

First Day, played game... Hooked.
Second day read threds...Hooked.
Thrid Day PM'd States, and Cuppa with simple Thank Yous.
Fourth Day, recieved PM from both States and Cuppa saying thank you and welcome.

A reply from CuppaJo delighted me.

Once from States, suprise. When was the last time a game designer made himself that available to his audiance.

It's the little things.

Thank you.

Great. As a solo, Looking forward to playing the new changes.

Hope it works out and thank you.
