too bad that you need to pay more money for this bonus feature though.....would be nice if everyone could do it also.

[/ QUOTE ]

using two accounts like that isn't a "bonus feature" - it's a fringe benefit of having two accounts.

Just like being able to solo a TF by having your second account be your mandatory #2 member isn't a "bonus" the developers intended you to have, it's just a fringe benefit.

[ QUOTE ]

If you create a second build, you can switch back and forth from one build to another every 15 minutes. This allows people to have something like a PvE build and a PvP build that they can switch to depending on what they're up to.

[/ QUOTE ]

Or a PvE Team vs PvE Solo build, etc.

[ QUOTE ]
cool, thanks for the picture. that certainly is the proof i was looking for. i should have just looked at my own attributes :P

on a side note, is there any benefit to slotting this proc more than once? I know they dont stack, and are suppressed. ie. could have one active period going when the others are in suppression?

[/ QUOTE ]

As far as I know, it wouldn't go off during the suppression.

The main benefit would to get having it go off.

[ QUOTE ]
It's not marked as a "Global" because those are different from Procs. They're for enhacements that act as if they were a set bonus. FF: +Recharge is a proc, meaning it has a chance to apply a buff to the caster, in this case +100% recharge for 5 seconds. It can not only affect a single power, powers don't work that way.

[/ QUOTE ]

In other words - the IO itself isn't a "Global" but it's benefit gives a global recharge bonus.

Greetings players,

For those of you that missed trying it out the first time and those of you who wouldn't mind giving it another look... we will be re-enabling the Superscience pack on the Test Server tomorrow, Thursday, July 9th and would love your help testing it once again!

Please post your feedback and any bugs you may find in this thread.

And thanks again for the testing help!

*sigh*

What's the sigh for?

[/ QUOTE ]

Cause I was getting hopeful that it was gonna be released THIS week. :P

[/ QUOTE ]

Understandable.

[ QUOTE ]

Not meant as an insult to BaBs, but its sad when the only dev that connects to the playerbase on any level is the animations guy. (Again, no insult BaBs, ur awesum i swearz )

[/ QUOTE ]

After all, we never see pohsyb, WarWitch (Attempt to summon - stands in front of a mirror and chants "Warwitch, Warwitch, WARWITCH!" :P), Ghost Falcon, SexyJ, or Positron.

I would of included Synapse and Sunfire but we seemed to of scared them off.

Quite frankly, that's a lot larger list than many other MMOs.

[ QUOTE ]
Well, then, as long as your here, and this is being discussed...

We Bugged and Petitioned this, and got a GM in pretty short order, but it's still a bug.

We ran the Manticore TF the other day. The team was capped at 35 and so were most of the bad guys. All but those darn level 40 Paragon Protector Elites. It was only those foes, and only in a few of the missions.

[/ QUOTE ]

yeah, it was interesting (but do-able) last week I think it was. I was 30 at the start of the TF, and so those PPEs were +10 at first.

[ QUOTE ]

If they're using any sort of internal tool to insta-kill the lieuts, or to trigger a Lord Recluse spawn on an otherwise empty map of the last mission while trying to reproduce the bug, something in said tool could be preventing the bug from occurring. Thus they can't reproduce, and thus the bug doesn't get moved up.

$DEITY knows I've had to talk with some of the people from QA at my job for logging bugs caused only when certain things occur with our internal tools.

[/ QUOTE ]

Like... Castle's(?) recent issue where the MM power in the new SF only worked with developers' tools enabled.

I think it is -possible- to have a game with CO's version of power selection or DCUO's version of power selection in the world because, low and behold, they are actually developing those games to be that way as we speak.

[/ QUOTE ]

You know, the sorry history of vaporware in the superhero computer game genre (and I'm not just talking MMOs) inclines me to say "publish or it didn't happen." Ar either of those two games released yet? (Honest question -- I haven't kept up.) Until they are released, they can SAY anything they want about their system and it's all talk. Remember COH had a classless system too before it released.

[/ QUOTE ]CO isn't out yet, but it is in closed beta (as I recall).

DCUO isn't out yet, and that's all I know at the moment.

[ QUOTE ]
this just all goes back to the continuing argument and bad attitude towards solo players that they do not deserve to have the same conveniences that others get.

[/ QUOTE ]

Solo players are not discriminated against - they get the exact same abilities to do things in-game (including influence transfer) that every other player, solo or group, gets.

[ QUOTE ]
such as the luxury of being able to transfer inf between your characters with complete and total ease and not having to rely on strangers or use risky things like the market place. i totally disagree that it should be any harder for solo players to transfer inf.

[/ QUOTE ]

And it's not. It's just not any EASIER for solo players to do so.

[ QUOTE ]
I accept that i dont have access to base teleporters or medic bays, or solo AV's thats fine.

[/ QUOTE ]

You do have access to that stuff and (depending on character build) the ability to do that last bit.

And to invite alts, just get someone to help you invite while logging in, then say "Thank you" and kick them when you are done inviting alts in - people do it all the time.

[ QUOTE ]
the ability to transfer inf between your characters should be easy and simple for everyone, like a mail system.


[/ QUOTE ]

First of all, we already have a mail system
Second of all, wanting a WoW-mail system is totally different than saying you as a solo player are being picked on, which is what I am getting from this. And the current staff's philosophy is that they do not want people to be able to WoW-mail themselves.

[ QUOTE ]
Sigh. I didn't know this before level pacting. I've been level pacted with a friend of mine who has been really lazy lately, and I've leveled from 1 to 45 on my VEAT on my own without his help. So what you're saying is, I've pretty much been leveling like I've had permanent debt since level 1.

Well... thanks for the quick replies.

[/ QUOTE ]

If he hasn't played that character much at all, yeah.

[ QUOTE ]
Easy now, I was just asking to see if it's still used. With globals and whatnot it seems a bit outdated. I was curious, and I'm glad some people told me what they use it for. Thanks!

I wasn't about to make a suggestion to just remove it entirely if people use it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Emails stick around after you view them (great for the themed sgs I am in, for example, with build requirements).

Also, the game only recalls approx. your last ten offline tells.

[ QUOTE ]
For things like this, that have a very dramatic impact on game play, cause crashing, affect a lot of people, can be used as major exploits, etc...it'd be really helpful if you could bring those issues to the forums where they have a chance of being immediately and directly seen by us in addition to /bug -ing them.

[/ QUOTE ]

Fixed

[ QUOTE ]
How long does Austin take to tell you there is a problem? Are we NOT supposed to /bug items this bad?

[/ QUOTE ]

They have to attempt to verify first, and they keep pulling GW and mako together.

<blockquote> I know just a quick jaunt through the forums can suck up over an hour of my work day.

Considering how Castle (and other developers) cull feedback from the forums, it would take up a good amount of their day anyway.

Dominator's got a pvp only damage buff back in one issue or another. It was definitely over 2 years ago. I looked for the patch notes regarding the difference in damage in pvp vs pve today and the search doesnt go back that far. Before anyone starts crying"bug" please do remeber the extra damge in pvp was added intentionally. That the dev's forgot they implemented that isnt a "bug".It's an understandable oversite and will be corrected.

[/ QUOTE ]

Ya it kind of bothered me that Sunstorm called it a bug as well. They sure love to label things as bugs and exploits even though it was WAI just a few days ago.

It's an oversight that they forgot to adjust for during the dom revamp, there is no bugged code or bugged powers everything is working exactly as designed and implemented.

[/ QUOTE ]

The "bug" is the bonus not being removed before these changes went live. Those responsible have been beaten about the head and shoulders with a wet noodle, repeatedly. Not that that will prevent the same sort of thing from happening in the future, but hey, it was fun!

[/ QUOTE ]

Lol. Either those were large noodles, or not much of a beating..

[/ QUOTE ]

Pool noodles are pretty big.

[ QUOTE ]
I've seen several people recommend global channels in several posts, is there somewhere that these are listed out for newer people like myself to find? Or is there an in gmae mechanic for this that I haven't chanced upon yet? Thanks!

[/ QUOTE ]

One thing to check is the individual server forums.

Also, you can search chat channel names/descriptions (sure about the first, not about the second) in game - off the edit/add tab window, IIRC.

[ QUOTE ]
look at the to hit logs...alot and i mean alot of people are noticing that mobs have what is called an untyped attack meaning that it has no defense or resistance attribute attached to it. meaning itll always hit and it will do full dmg no matter what.

[/ QUOTE ]

That doesn't mean it will always hit.

A few things (mostly PFF) have base defense - good against everything.

Min. 5% chance to miss.

To-Hit Debuffs

Damage Debuffs.

Etc.

And as that link above shows, it does smashing damage.

Angry_Citizen - For.... well, being ANGRY. And for having an avatar that is close enough to Lord_of_Time's at first glance that I mix you two up all the time.

Definatly. Almost replied to a LoT post and said "Look, A_C even thinks it's a bad idea!" then I realized it was Lord of Time.

Both are pretty cool posters though. LoT mostly because of location, I think

You will be able to catch up and surpass.

[ QUOTE ]
Yeah, I know about those. I just want them like the ones that you can just click on in game already. You know, the emote icon down next to chat? Click on that and have them all come up...All of them, not just what is there already.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't really have time right now to go through the quickchat menu and correlate it with our list of emotes to see what's missing. I also can't add any emote that's restricted by a badge, vet reward, invention, or booster pack.

But if someone would like to give me a list of emotes that everyone can use but aren't in the quickchat menu right now...I'll add them in.

[/ QUOTE ]

Hey BaBs. I remember awhile ago, there was this one emote I cant seem to find.

It had a standing version and a kneeling version to it. It was kinda like research but instead of a book... I think you were welding or using some kind of item.

Did you list that and if so, which one is it?
Also, if its not, am I just out of my mind or was there once that sort of emote?

Thanks,

-Sin

[ QUOTE ]
So..... he's a Professional Griefer? Where do I sign up!?!


EDIT: Actually READING the article.... let me sum this up and see if I understand.

He went into a zone where players are competing against each other, a zone where players are supposed to attack other players. A zone where the purpose is to be "mean" to each other. A zone where aggression is a VIRTUE.

And he's surprised when people get angry and aggressive at him?
Someone needs to take this guy's PhD away. Seriously.

[/ QUOTE ]

Specifically - he got disappointed/angry at others ire at him when he purposely ignored the standard conventions in the zone to continually tp-drone other players - something that really requires no skills just a good to-hit roll and allows no defense if that roll gets through.
