If anything Katana would be more suited for a rapier. I mean honestly, the raw force put into the broad sword swings would looks silly with a wimpy little rapier at the end of it. I mean come on... head splitter with a rapier?

When I'm side-switching JUST to get a PP, I don't run teams. I don't talk to people. I blast through tips as far as possible at -1/x0 using stealth if I have it. It's just an inconvenience - I add nothing to redside by being there for the 4 days it takes me to get my PP and leave.
See what I did there? -

It has 100% to do with subscribing. Prior to Freedom, if you stopped subscribing you lost access to *everything* you had previously purchased. Post Freedom, if you stop subscribing, you lose access to *some* things depending on your Vet status plus Incarnate content.
I'm not saying it's fair that you can't get access to the Incarnate content without re-subbing, but this idea that people deserve all the stuff for free just because the payment model has changed is laughable.
Lets be honest here, premium status sucks unless you are tier 7 and above. Reson being you loose access to the invention system. So any premium player returning that has fully iod toon will have their builds reduced to uselessness. So just keep in mind that the plan was to make premium and f2p account as unattractive as they can so you buy stuff from them. Taking away incarnates is part of that plan. So its either A. Play the game you love with a sub. B. Play a crappy version for free. The choice is yours. -
Quote:I pretty much stated my point. To give the zone some attention. Back when the zone came out it was full. Now its dead. My guess as to one of the reasons why would be how secluded it is. It needs something to make it stick out more. A tram would be perfect. They added a tram to Founder Falls to make it more accessible. Do the same for Fault. I don't think a simple line of text in a contact introduction is enough. The place could really use a tram.Originally Posted by Sharker_Quint
I know what they are. It's just to get the point across. It may not seem like it, but I understand how you feel. I just don't see a point for this.
EDIT: As for tram "making sense", if they were able to build a AE building there then they best be able to build a tram. And hasn't a number of years passed since the remake of Atlas Park in the game lore? I'm sure that's enough time to get a functional tram going.
So as far as the game lore goes, we are covered. -
Quote:A good place for those is in IP on the left side of the map all the way to the war walls. Just go straight to the west of the tram until you hit the war wall then go south until you stop seeing family and start seeing tsao. There is a long stretch covered with them. Its the best place Ive found so far to hunt sorcerers.Originally Posted by SolarSentai
For Sorcerers, no clue. I always just hunted in Talos and Steel for them.
For the illusion badge I run harvey malor until I get it. His mission are 90% carnies. -

It's not a reason to go red, just switch red for a long as it takes to finish the arc and go back hero. Whether the OP's idea is good or not, this isn't an argument against it.
Just to switch over and back you were on the red side for a time period that you wouldn't have been if patrons were on blue side.
I know when I switch sides I start tip mission teams. And I have to do that for at least 4 days. That's 4 days of me populating the other side and running missions that I never would have if patrons were on the blue side.
Not to mention I rolled a brute and went red after praetoria just because of darkest night and my build plans. And some accolades are easier to get red side so that and the patrons pushed me to the red side. -
Quote:Umm, those are RED HAZARD zones my friend. Fault is green. The same as atlas park and mercy island.Originally Posted by Sharker_Quint
The whole point of having to travel to some places without using a teleporter or tram is to experience the game world. I suppose next you are going to want a tram added to DA, Striga, Eden... you get the point.
If you said I want a tram in Fire Base Zulu and Rikti War Zone it would have made a little more sense. -
There was no reason to do a lot of things that they did throughout the CoX history. Thats a really really weak argument.
Not to mention that not every base has a teleporter to fault. Not to mention the F2P players don't have super group access. Not to mention new F2P players wont have mission TP unless they buy it. Not to mention that.... you get the point. -

I bet they kept it like this to keep a reason to go red. The red side is less populated than the blue. Its a fact. Take away one of the few reason people have to go red and what will you leave them? -
That manhole, didn't know it existed until a year after I played the game. Skyway: see above.
I love the zone. Great storyline, AV's at a low level. Fusionette. The only negative thing I could say about the zone is that the dam is a PITA to go through.
And the state of the zone? It sells doughnuts. Any place that sells doughnuts cant be that bad off. -
You know, with all the options broadsword has I say skip it for awhile and give some love to the friggen katana. I am seriously thinking of rerolling my main as a broadsword because of all the cool sword options it has. Let the ugly step child get some goodies for once and skip the darn BS a few times

I can totally agree that if it was removed on accident that it shoulld be replaced with no charge, but the OLD mandible shown in the picture was REPLACED by the new skull looking mandible and that one vanished. I want them both back. Sure bring the skull version back for free if it was removed on accident. But the one pictured above was replaced on purpose and I'd pay to bring the old version back.

I'd really like to see a tram station added in Fault. Due to its secluided location a lot of new players will miss out on a fun zone. Its located off of skyway and to be honest, that zone is a big parking lot that is hardly ever really used.
When I do try to get a fault team going its hard because of the obscure location, Everyone is accustomed to easy commutes now (I love the new tram/ferry set up btw) and a main zone like fault should really have a tram stop. A tram will give the zone some much needed attention. I'm sure a lot of hard work was put into the remake and its a shame to see the zone so desolate
On another note, lets get a flashback to the old Faultline. That zone was awesome. -

I'm guessing you wouldn't pay? Thats cool, but I doubt without any incentive that they would put this back in. I mean its been gone for years now. It should be easy as heck to add it again since it was in the game before. Give us more options rather than less. You have the option not to buy it, but I do. Win win.

So, nobody would like to see this part again huh?

I don't think any compensation outside of an extra day or two double exp is necessary (due to ALL the extra downtime, not just today).

Quote:Ummm, I dont know about everyone, but I check my email and spam folder on a daily basis. And why would you not use your real email?Originally Posted by Hyperstrike
Because everyone looks at their e-mail on a daily basis.
Because the email will get through spam filters in every single instance.
Because the e-mail they use in any given time will get through systems requiring MANUAL responses to be added to lists of safe senders.
Because everyone has their real e-mail, or even their primary e-mail put in on their NCSoft account.
That knowing chuckle you hear in the background? That's me.
You are digging deep for those aren't you? -

Okay. Let's deal with facts.
The fact is, that Paragon is trying to bolster the infrastructure of the game so that it can handle higher loads.
The fact is, you're paying for access to the service during all times NOT designated as maintenance windows or accidental downtime during crashes.
The fact is, despite noises to the contrary, you're NOT entitled to any compensation for downtime of ANY sort.
The fact is, this large maintenance window is going to happen sooner or later. It's more sensible that it happen now (as soon as possible), rather than taking it down later during the F2P push and alienating MORE users (and gaining a reputation amongst new players for inordinate amounts of downtime).
The fact is, if you're unsatisfied with the service YOU CAN STOP PAYING FOR IT. Whining and griping about something that has to happen achieves nothing.
Are we entitled to something: No, but when the devs feel they've "let us down" they have given us extra"goodies" in the past. How did they know we were "let down"? Because we voiced our opinions and concern's.
I'm glad you have that "DEVS CAN NEVER DO WRONG!" attitude, but people like you keep games in the stone ages. People that want progress and satisfaction from a product voice their opinion and thoughts on matters pertaining their investments.
Who knows (not you because you aren't a dev), we may just get something out of this because this is the most I've seen the game go down so much for such large periods of time since I started playing 3 years ago. And sitting down "taking the downtime like a man" will get us squat.
The dev's need to keep the public happy within limits. People are unhappy right now. Even a extra 400 paragon points ($0 cost to the devs) would tell me "Hey guys, I know this sucks but were trying to improve the game. In the meantime heres a bone to let you the customer know that we do care about your business".
I don't think that is too much to ask. -
Many thanks for such a great program. You should get paid by paragon studios me thinks.
-
You know, I can understand maintenance here and there, but this is getting ridiculous to be honest. If lets say my cable service went off for 3 days, I wouldn't be charged those 3 days. I know because its happened to me. You just have to call and complain.
Now I know I hit the Agree button like everyone else and that legally screws me over from getting any type of compensation for the cash I paid and the game time I'm losing, but that doesn't mean they can't do whats right and give something to quell the masses. It would be a good business move and give back a little of the faith some of us have lost in paragon studios. -
I wonder if it was removed on purpose or if it was a bug of some type. A red name reply on that would be nice.

It would have to be an instance (or series of them,) as GC is no longer an accessible "zone" - it's just part of the tutorial.
