    [LIST][*]SG/VG Membership - is a character auto booted when they go rogue? are we given some sort of confirmation window or warning that we are close to getting booted from our group? Conversely, can we stay as "double agents" or whatever in our current groups if we cross over? Will there be an SG setting, like a moral tolerance level we can set within our groups?

    While I do know that there's no way I'll get an answer so soon, this is the question that's been teasing me recently.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Pretty sure I thought they said (in an interview or something) that you would get booted.

    Not really bashing on a game so much as Jack Emmert's questionable ability to deliver a decent game.

    [/ QUOTE ] If only he had done it before...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    not to dis what he's done... but from what I understand the CO dev staff (Emmert is not a dev over there, IIRC) isn't 100% professional in their public remarks about CoH/V. Which makes me wonder how good their work ethics are if their ethics are not 100%.

    I thought it was about how if you said Troy Hickmans' name three times it would summon him.

    That's crazy talk.

    It's pretty much always been just saying it once summons him.

    Where I live, what, two years ago? We (our state) had had our school zones signs changed from "When Children are Present" to "At All Times"

    A year ago, they got them changed to "School days from 7-5" mainly because "At all times" was too confusing to too many people.

    I wept.

    And people are crying about getting banned here for extreme exploits like it's a horrible injustice.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I seem to recall an issue in SWG(?) that had people getting banned for money duping. Rather, being in possession of duped money they were drive-by gifted (which doesn't require consent, from what I understand) while the actual dupers didn't get banned because they didn't possess any duped money (anymore!).

    Oh, I did not realize this. Thank you.

    Why do Performance Shifters not go for higher prices on the market then? Last I checked a Chance for +End was going for 5000 or less. You would think it would cost more if it was so effective.



    [/ QUOTE ] They used to cost a lot more than they do now. Not sure why the price crashed.

    Finally remembered the example I was trying remember about being "great" but not necessarily good or evil.

    As I recall, it's not in the movie.

    But in the first Harry Potter book, the wandmaker says that Harry is undoubtably destined for great things due to the fact that his wand's twin's owner had done great things (IIRC, been awhile for the full text). Said person being voldamort. The wandmaker goes on to say that "great things" is simply "great things" - it can refer to great evil OR great good, but either way, great things. And time for bedtime.

    You mean "oh yeah no more nerfs" followed by ED was telling folks what they didn't wanted to hear?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Wrong. He never said no more nerfs.

    He said they were done with massive changes to the /powers/ (GDN being the massive changes to various defensive powers and aoe holds for the big items).

    Then went and changed/nerfed the enhancement system.

    They are separate systems. Like like a wife and husband are separate people of the same (hopefully) functional married couple

    But evil should be allowed to make advances, win property, and alter the face of things for the worse, up to a point. I'd love it if you could 'take over' a certain % of the spawn points in an open zone so that your custom critters spawned there, for instance.

    Care to elaborate. There is no basis for some of these symptoms. I agree some of these are highly probable.

    Except for death, those are the real side effects of some drug. Didn't make a note of the name. It was just the first thing I found in google. Pick and choose which ones fit I guess.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Heck, I could take a drug, during testing, then go out, get beat up horribly and requiring hospitalization... and that drug would end up with "horrendous internal bleeding" as a possible side effect.

    And remember folks, if you sick, take your meds... unless you were also sick some other way then your screwed!

    I also will refer you to sitting "Indian style" something we all did as kids, which is no longer allowed, because that's racist, forcing quite a few elementary school teachers to come up with a quick "fun" term for it, none of which make much sense.

    Well Posi said it would be and Castle said it would be "post I15 launch"

    [u]Dark Control[u] (For Controller and Dominator Primary)

    1) Petrifying Gaze
    2) Tar Patch
    3) Tenebrous Tentacles
    4) Life Drain
    5) Cloak of Darkness
    6) Dark Pit
    7) Fearsome Stare
    8) Black Hole
    9) Dark servant


    [/ QUOTE ]

    Life Drain really doesn't fit. Tar patch either, although I think if they squeezed that it it would be moved up to at least #4. They would also go and create a ST Immobilize to put in it's place, as all control sets generally have one ST hold and immobilize (Illusion being the only exception I can think of, and it's a VASTLY different type of control).

    Something like this would be more likely :
    1. Grasping Tentacle (Or some kinda of darkity Dark immoblizing name)
    2. Petrifying Gaze
    3. Tenebrous Tentacles
    4. Fearsome Stare
    5. Dark Pit
    6. Cloak of Darkness
    7. Tar Patch (Possibly earlier, but with the res debuff way down, it would be for the slowing component).
    8. Black Hole
    9. Dark Servant

    [u]Dark Blast[u] (Blaster Primary)

    1) Dark Blast

    5) Nightfall
    6) Torrent
    7) Touch of Fear
    8) Dark Obliteration
    9) Blackstar


    [/ QUOTE ]

    I think Dark Blast as a blaster Primary would be mostly a straight port - although Dark Pit would undoubtedly get dropped for an Aim power. Touch of Fear really doesn't fit a Blast set either.

    It is possible they would ditch Life drain for something like Dark Obliteration.
    1. Dark Blast
    2. Gloom
    3. Moonbeam
    4. Aim-type power (Only change, replacing Dark Pit from Defender version)
    5. Tenebrous Tentacles
    6. Night Fall
    7. Torrent
    8. Life Drain
    9. Blackstar

    6) Dark Regeneration
    7) Dark Consumption
    8) Oppressive Gloom
    9) Midnight Grasp


    [/ QUOTE ]
    Tar patch doesn't seem right for a blaster for me, but if they did do an AoE Slow/-Res, it would definatly be later. Same with Cloak of Darkness, moved back a bit to match Cloaking Device.

    Dark consumption I could see, but the Full Heal Dark Duo in one powerset? I don't see dark regeneration in it.

    I do see a hold (Dark has always been more controller-like, just like Ice) and the melee powers make sense. I doubt soul drain would get in there; Build Up makes much more sense to me.

    And only energy doesn't have an Immoblize. I could seem them not using one, but only then would they possibly put in OG in a top tier spot.
    1. ST. Immoblize from Dark Control
    2. Shadow Punch
    3. Smite
    4. Build Up
    5. Tar Patch
    6. Cloak of Darkness
    7. Petrifying Gaze
    8. Dark Consumption
    9. Midnight Grasp

    reminds me of the old comic shop.

    We had some dolt (not a comic shop customer) park his car across teh street at about 9pm on a Friday night. right by the "Gentleman's Club's" front door on the main north-bound street. Thing was, while it took a person walking by it to set it off (Remember where it was? It went off a lot) - any car driving by in the nearest lane kept it going X.X Only time I've heard the store owner mention he might turn a blind eye to vandalism.
