Quote:So would it work if they used the CoH helper program's cropped dxdiag log?Originally Posted by Arbiter Oates
For those frequently crashing in Incarnate Trials: I'd appreciate receiving any PMs with your dxdiag info. This info will probably be cut off by the text limit in the PM, but we don't need the parts that get lost. -
For some reason, Paragon's web team doesn't/can't hide that. It does not work - it was not given any permissions to upload to their server.
So for any and all pics, sig or otherwise, upload to some webspace (Imageshack is popular) and link to it by placing the URL for it inbetween [IMG] [/IMG] tags. -
THe fun thing was is I was putting together an ITF when this came up - I was thinking "oh no!" at first.

Canada is part of North America is it not? Why the rules have to explicitly put "including Canada" is odd to me, might as well just say "This offer is only valid in The United States and Canada." since I highly doubt they're including Mexico in this.

Quote:"Disaster Movie" pissed me off so bad I forgot to ask for my refundOriginally Posted by rsclark
Actually, it does. I've never been refused a refund at a movie theater. I still think they should have paid me for watching that half hour of The Medallion, though.
The chipmunk scene from the commercials was the best part. And even that ended up sucking when you see how long it went on.
I think I once heard them say they get their soda for free... yet they apparently pay nearly $3-5 a cup and gotta charge us that for the "free" soda...Quote:Originally Posted by Mr. DJ
they get the vast majority of their profits from their food anyways -
Quote:Used to be manual, and the normal "free" (GM) version still is. THe Bought/server transfer version is automated, however.Originally Posted by Sailboat
It's my impression that cost is primarily intended to be a deterrent, as the name-change process is manual and they don't want thousands of requests flooding the staff.

However, it does have a nasty self-debuff on proc :
Although to be honest, I'm not sure if those two DO go together, of if the MT was in itself a MT. -
Quote:It's a... Token Gesture of AppreciationOriginally Posted by Mr. DJ
So what do you call something given to us for free on a monthly subscribed basis that we'd normally have to pay $10 for? it isn't nothing, I'll tell you that.
I'd call the Flaming Bag of Poo (now public domain) vandalism and attempted arson.Quote:Originally Posted by Giant2005
It is something the majority of the playerbase has no desire for. Sure it is something for nothing so technically a "gift" but the same can be said if I were to leave a flaming bag of poo on your porch.
It'd be nice if it could be exchanged for a Rename token, but as it is, I'll probably end up using two of these to rename characters every so often.Quote:Originally Posted by GPBunny
But then again maybe I just read too much into it, and the Devs thought having a Free Transfer would be nice since so many wanted the free transfers in the past. -

Quote:First of all, www.paragonwiki.com is always a good place to check (in this case, www.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Reward Token)Originally Posted by Finduilas
A sort-of-related question:
I have 33 tokens earned on one of my accounts, and I thought I heard there was a way to earn extra Rewards by buying Points in the store. Is that correct? And if so, how much do you have to buy to earn a Reward token?
Every 1200 points purchased earns a reward token. However, your first purchase ever also earns a token, so you can nab a token for $5 if you haven't bought any before. -
The only place involving your account that will mention it is in the Paragon Rewards screen - the meter to the right will mention when you've unlocked the Tier 8 bonus, which includes "+150 Paragon Points a month" for VIPs.
-
And this isn't unique to free players, it just how the game was rebuilt to accelerate getting in game and will affect all new installs.
-
To be fair, it was never in anything marketing stamped - the upfront tokens bit was all from the Ustream chats and the like.
-
You also could try creating a new character and see if Street is available for use. I heard it is, but didn't think to check that when I was on last night.
-
You will get 550 once you have 34 (or more) tokens earned.

Confirming both of these. Once you get them, you keep them.

I'd look up a copy of GR on amazon or such

Alternate Animations for shield are made to look as much as possible as their non-shield originals. So there isn't, usually, much difference to see.

Melee in-set knockback protection (with the exception of Grounded from Elec Armor) also has 10,000% knockback resistance, which essentially turns that knockback into mag zero before the protection's even applied. As an example, Recluse's Spider Smash power on the STF will KB my Defender, who has 26 points of protection slotted, but it won't touch pretty much any melee with in-set KB protection.
Melee tends to get outright KB protection for the few cases of unresistible Knock-back in the game.
Note all three KB protection IOs are simple global IOs, and non-unique. You can go all three Karma if you want,for example.Quote:Originally Posted by Organica
More importantly, while 4 points protection is good for much of the game, 8 points protection does not cover very much more than that. Most people advocate 4 points or if you really want as much protection as possible, go 12 with karma/steadfast/BotZ. -
Quote:True, but they don't have any inherent defense debuffs - so you can buff their defense and they live (longer).Originally Posted by The_Spad_EU
You can buff them like any other pet, but their inherent self-res debuff means that a single hit will almost always kill them. They also appear to have a higher threat level than you as "undecided" mobs will usually pick them to attack first over you.

THey are referring to, I think, the fact that most people don't know you don't need to enter the queue in a team. That if you just enter it solo, it can form a team for you.

If you want to change an SG name, and are the SuperLeader, ask. Seriously. Just send in a petition, and ask.

Quote:As I said, I was just referring to the VIP "allotments" not the as-you-buy-points.Originally Posted by Comrade Hero
I can confirm this.
I was curious to see if a first purchase of Paragon Points gave you a free Reward Token as indicated.
So I purchased 400 Paragon Points for $5 and lo and behold was awarded a free Reward Token.
This can only be done once. But you can also get a Reward Token if you purchase 1200 Paragon Points - I haven't tried this yet, and probably wont. -
Quote:This thread is about VIP Points and tokens and such.Originally Posted by all_hell
Tokens for buying stuff are awarded immediately.
and going back to edit in what I recall hearing about transfer tokens. -
From what I am understanding :
Paragon Points : AkA the little buggers for the Paragon Market
- Points are to be awarded one month at a time, even for multi-month subs, on your "monthly" bill date
- THose who have a bill date from the 1st to the 10th will get theirs on the 11th
- Those who have their points delayed as above will have the award date move closer to their bill date over the nexxt few months until they are awarded on their bill date
Rewards Tokens : The big buggers for the Rewards Shrub- Awarded for 1 month of VIP sub, and every 12th month subbed after that (and buying Points)
- THe token for a bill date will be awarded not then, but before the next bill date (Billed Oct 10? Token will award Nov 9)
- THe original plan was to have all tokens for a sub award up front, but technical difficulties stopped that.
Transfer Tokens : The things that Move People- They are accured by having an active sub on the first of the month
Questions for Z or other Red-type
- Points - The "resync" should be done by Feb. based off other player's interactions with support - is this right?
- Tokens - Is it still the plan to chnage the sytem to reward all tokens for a sub on the first day of subscription vs. one per month the day before the next montly bill date?
- Badges - The yearly badges - Will new badges be awarded based on pre-freedom "Played" time + Post- freedom subbed time, or just paid sub stime?
- Is the bonus yearly token tied to the yearly anniversary badge?
