  3. Fellow colleagues, this particular topic of randomly based discussion shall consist purely of gentlemanly antics, phrases, and colloquialisms.

    Allow the topic to commence!

  4. Over the last week or so I have been putting my first real serious effort into playing with the market, mostly in the form of flipping a TON of salvage of a certain kind for tasty profit.
    This is good and nice but...slow, very slow. I think I have enough cash at this point to start treading into the big boys game but im not sure how to go about it. Any tips you ebil marketeers?

    Not at all, I got it in Nightfall, its wicked mitigation. I also got the +hold proc in unbreakable restraint in my Tents, hehe.

    And have they disabled PMs (it seems so, can't PM them now) in favor of Twitter?
    you can still PM devs foo!

    I would guess that's the primary reason it probably won't happen. They don't want to seem like they're directly copying CO, even though it's a mechanic that's been used to death in fighting games for over a decade. In no way did CO invent it.

    How is it any more a departure in playstyle than Dual Blades' combos are? That was a radical new mechanism unlike anything that was in the game before and it got incorporated just fine.

    My understanding from the thread above was that you wanted to be able to do more damage on demand, to stop "holding back." I was looking for a new mechanism that wasn't a direct port of an existing one like Fury or Domination. The concept of a per-power charge-up meter is seems perfect to me (of course since it's my suggestion of course it'd seem perfect to me! ).

    Still, given that it's a central part of CO's attack mechanics, debating its merits probably falls into the "how many angels can dance on the head of a pin" category, which I think is a shame.
    =P in the case of DB, its quite a bit more sophisticated then champions charge up mechanics, at least in feel and use. Tanks are fine as is. They are tanks, they tank. They cannot have high high damage because that would make them waaaay overpowered. This whole "Tanks dont really pose a threat" is literal non-sense. They can absorb a ton of damage, its safe to assume they are very powerful from a in-character perspective. However you have to accept that they need to have a drawback to be inline with the other ATs in usefulness.
  9. The devs still post on the forums, however the dev digest is broken right now, you have to search for their post manually by going to advanced search, setting it to display by post then entering their individual usernames. Twitter is just a nice extra, I like it.

    *edit* Also the devs are crazy busy with closed beta right now so it should be expected that they will be fairly quiet.

    ....It kinda has to be for mac too? Since y'know...Going rogue is a expansion, not stand alone and actually, even if you don't buy expansions for online games 99% of the time you receive the data for it anyway.

    =D Awesome, both my MM's are crying tears of joy, but this begs the question...Does this go for the pets of pets? (the hovering things protector bots summon, etc..)
  12. There IS a mac version allready available. Now a ps3/360 version is just VERY VERY unlikely. This game was designed to be run on a system that uses a mouse/keyboard as its primary input. Also to publish a game on 360/PS3 there is very expensive liscencing fees involved that make it not the best idea for business especially if it flops. Another thing, even though the 360/PS3 are nice publishing it on those systems could potentially prevent integration of future technologies since the PC version pretty much has to match the console one.

    Think about the MM's now they should be even more accessable.

    Ding ding ding, we have a winner! I was actually going to make up some silly features but then I got lazy and just copied the lyrics to the themesong of "the fresh prince of bel-air.

    >o> at any rate I lured a good number of people...
  20. =P im lol'ing at it right now. It's nice but people hate me! My feelings are hurt... *negative rep'd*

    *edit* If you seen the last couple of movies hes been in youd know he needs some TLC, they were awful.

    "Now, this is a story all about how
    My life got flipped-turned upside down
    And I liked to take a minute
    Just sit right there
    I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air

    In west Philadelphia born and raised
    On the playground was where I spent most of my days
    Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
    And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school
    When a couple of guys
    Who were up to no good
    Started making trouble in my neighborhood
    I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
    She said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air'

    I begged and pleaded with her day after day
    But she packed my suite case and send me on my way
    She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket.
    I put my walkman on and said, 'I might as well kick it'.

    First class, yo this is bad
    Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass.
    Is this what the people of Bel-Air living like?
    Hmmmmm this might be alright.

    But wait I hear they're prissy, wine all that
    Is Bel-Air the type of place they send this cool cat?
    I don't think so
    I'll see when I get there
    I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air

    Well, the plane landed and when I came out
    There was a dude who looked like a cop standing there with my name out
    I ain't trying to get arrested
    I just got here
    I sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappeared

    I whistled for a cab and when it came near
    The license plate said 'FRESH' and it had dice in the mirror
    If anything I can say this cab is rare
    But I thought 'Now forget it' - 'Yo homes to Bel Air'

    I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
    And I yelled to the cabbie 'Yo homes smell ya later'
    I looked at my kingdom
    I was finally there
    To settle my throne as the Prince of Bel Air "
    You heard it here first, Cabs, player housing and b-ball meta-game.
  25. Guys you won't believe it but I found a bunch of new info on issue 16!
    Okay so you though power customization was awsome wait untill they show

    and that was SO cash! Anyway I hope you guys are as excited as I am!
