    It's what we pay for.
    ...and if any of the server or network folk that work for me did such a poor job, they would be unemployed. One hour isn't that bad, 3 is unacceptable. Its not 3 servers out of 100 here, its a huge loss of servers, percentage-wise. They used to do a good job, but not for years.

    Virtue Down?

    Three of them are down...Virtue, Guardian, and Justice. I doubt they'll be up anytime soon; I don't think anyone on staff cares on weekends.
  3. I used to not mind the server update days...back when they started earlier and they came back even remotely on time. If tried to tell my Director that I wanted to take down customer-oriented servers on the schedule that they do here, he'd laugh and tell me to get my team's tails into the office earlier and remember the concept of customer service. Its just sad.
  4. Holding us all back because of one server is really pretty rude. I work in IT in management (god I miss actually fixin' stuff) and I'd fire any manager working for me that made a decision like this.
  5. This is getting pretty close to unreasonably long.
  6. Homework sounds like fun...but I haven't had any of that to do for about 17 years...
  7. I'm running out of random things to do while I wait. Organized the cd's and dvd's splattered across my desk, took out the trash, played with the cat, sigh...

    Eeeeep! NEED TO PLAY!
  8. There is a delay on the AR snipe, as well, but its not as bad.

    Accuracy

    Ok, that's nice...what enhances did you have in your attack? Did you get a 75% with an accuracy SO in it? If so that's not such a happy thing...

    I think it's safe to assume that his attack was unslotted, since he was testing base accuracy.

    I'd like to assume that, but I think I'd rather have him be a bit more clear.

  11. Just want to throw my two inf in here. I didn't read the whole thread so I'm not sure how much this has already been covered.

    Stealth, for my toons that have it, has nothing to do with defense. I could care less about the defense. It was all about being able to isolate one group of mobs in a room without getting the other 4 groups on me at the same time.

    I can see supressing the stealth component for the group that has been attacked (which isn't needed, they already all knew I was there in I4 if I attacked any member of the group) but having unengaged groups half-way across the room aggro on my poor blasters is a nightmare.

    It's not necessarily a nightmare that I can't overcome on, say, Assault Rifle because the range is good. On Energy, on the otherhand, this is devastating. I took my 26 Energy/Dev toon with Cloaking Device through the same mission on test and live and it was not fun on test.

    This is the only piece of I5 I actually look at with dread. My SR/Claws scrap is ok with the defense changes. Blaster primaries with short-ish range are gonna get better at running away (which is saying a lot 'cause they're squishy and already know when to split).
  12. I'd like to third (or 5th, whatever) the desire for more published numbers. I do things by concept, most of the time, but also get a bit of a quiver up my spine when I respec a toon and can't be sure if I'm not messing it up for a second time. Luckily, my poor, very messed up Katana/Regen scrapper turned out great with the recent free respec. Thanks for that!

    :-)
  13. This pretty much just made my day. The choice of soloing or teaming is what made me love this game (well...that and super jump).

    Thanks.
  14. I would hope for a serious look at the difficulty of the game post-lvl 30 for those without status effect protection. This has been a much argued topic but for me just comes down to the fun factor. Zero status protection outside of insps (due to the limited number a toon can carry and the low drop rate of anything other than acc insps) makes soloing or grouping without the support classes unfun. Teaming is the usual answer to this but it's just not always possible at 3am.

    Challenging is good, having to use insps is also good. It just not fun to run a blaster, for me and some others, past 30 the way it is now.

    I do love my scrappy guy, tho!
