That's part of the problem. We don't know what's coming and when this happens...

It's kind of a jerk move.


I'm also not exactly reconstructing his words. It's just when you throw out "It's my personal favorite" it's usually not the most disliked type of item for your players.

Pffff. My hypocrite levels are rising in that I would gladly buy a tiny elephant.

Actually totally forgot about the anniversary. That's a good point.

It is subjective when they're releasing content that adds little to no depth into the game rather than something that'll keep people around and active for a month or even several months. But instead we're getting bombarded with these vanity items. They ARE nice but the developers seem to be a bit too proud of them.

So yes, there is an issue of quality over quantity here.

Here's a kitten to keep anyone annoyed with me from hitting me over the internet.



See people think I'm being a spoiled brat when there's new content every week, and I may be one, but I've even said before I don't care if there isn't something new that week if it means actual work is going towards the prime gameplay elements.

Oddly I seem to have more trouble with Arachnos than I do malta on recent toons O_o.

Quality over quantity.

Seemed like a last minute hideous decision they thought up and thought it'd be funny. Also makes the lion seem like a steal with another pet included.

But remember, no more than 1 pet out at a time.

Nah you're just reasonable. I've been doing the same as you for some time but I'm nearing 50 on my fire melee/shield (Which'll be my sixth or seventh 50 in a year. I need to see some sunlight) and running thin on stuff to play. I don't want to get real into a toon if staff MIGHT be released soon, see? If it were confirmed it were say at the end of April I may be able to.

Really? Haven't had too many problems with super packs. If anything it's I always seem to get a bunch of Rares and VRs within 2 packs on beta and will go through about five or six on live and just get reward merits and revives :P.
However you mentioned you're a EU player? What's happening with super packs on the EU servers?

They had a calender last month. I guess it was a one time treat. Needless to say, as much as I've been throwing a childish temper tantrum, it's not the end of the world. It's just really frustrating to hear "No staff tomorrow but oh man you guys are going to LOVE this!...It's the most infamous type of item in the game!"
If we simply got a "No staff tomorrow " I'd be more "Well okay " than turning into the hulk.

I do the same when it comes to sounds since CoH doesn't (usually) have mission music and I got tired of the First Ward/SSA battle theme after the third or fourth time of hearing it.

It's a brilliant marketing scheme that we don't know what's coming up, because VIPs won't cancel their sub so they can stay around and see what's coming. It's cold and dirty, though.

I'd be definitely okay with some more vicious looking beast travel powers. Coyote's pretty adorable and actually really fast, but I feel silly when a big badass dude turns into a pipsqueak puppy thing.

Issue 18 kept me busy with all those powers up until I21. I would 100% agree with you if they weren't releasing pets almost back to back.

^And this

1. Never said I was going anywhere or playing anything else.

2. No. I can't. Beta is down until I23 release.

My TW/EA(Energy Aura) brute has never run out of end since I've done this if you don't include T9 crashes.

Sure I wouldn't be as disappointed, but I would at least like to see those hecatombs hit since they ARE melee IOs and staff IS...Well. Melee.

:O

And no, that wouldn't make me buy a pet if I already have staff.

The liger's pretty hideous, even on ultra. The lion's okay, but how long has staff been out?

Yes I know we just got beast and that's fine, especially after a long line of melee powers. But they've released a load of pets back to back but not things that'll keep you entertained for more than five minutes.

I'd like to know what people actually do with the pets besides pose and take pictures with them.

Or it ate it.

I certainly hope not.

Yes I am aware vanity pets are technically "content". But it's obvious on what I mean by actual "content". And yeah, the lion was on the beta server as well as staff and hecatomb.

Yes please.

Don't give them an excuse to delay staff any longer :<

They're actually in the market?

Wow I was mostly joking when I said "Oh wow what are they going to do, release more vanity pets instead of actual content?" but wow.
