Ok, now they have gone WAY too far. They have made AE to the point noone really benefits to use it.
You give us the ability to make customer critters...but if we don't make the CUSTOM critter exactly the way you devs want us to (which doesn't really make it all the customizable) then you take are rewards away.
I went in there today and was soloing a mob in the samuari mission at level 54 set for 8. I was getting one 1 ticket at a time, and was only averaging 1000-3000 influence. That is pathetic. Why waste my time with AE anymore.
AE is supposed to be our missions, our critters. But we can't make anyone the way we want. -
can you get some screen shots for us to look at. although it sounds like boxes not rendering.

sounds like your video card is on the way out. that or your motherboard. if you have a video card that you know works, try switching it out and see what happens.

Obviously Pocket D is a Nemesis plot. How else could this have shown up there?

i don't get charged taxes on my sub...
edit: and it is not NC that charges taxes, but your state. -
Quote:i'm going to stop you right here. please do not post any more on changes for PvP. your changes will over complicate it and make it actually less likely for new players to compete. i think we should just wait and see what changes occur down the road. maybe, just maybe, Castle learned from this and will make changes that will better suit the community as a whole.Originally Posted by Evangel
some good points I hadnt taken into consideration there. So, off th etop of my head how about:
[/I]
yep. and I'm going to flippantly respond that, judging how much work and effort has gone in so far to balancing PvP, perhaps the time has come to take that hardest of decisions and call it the fools errand that it is and make the resolution that, if there is to be effective PvP, we need to change the way the powers work. I do realise how breezy that answer is, believe me. Its not as easy as it sounds. But thats the solution I see.
agree with you completely there. I still think this needs to be changed for PvP to be effective.
Not necessarily:
Resistance: if you get hit, the damage is reduced.
Defense: stops you getting hit.
So, resistance can stay as it is. Defense though would reduce your "hit profile" making you a smaller target against attack types.
eg: Tanker Bob has a hit profile radius of 5ft , each 20% defense vs an attack type reduces this radius by 1ft to a minimum of the current cap.
Alternatively, the roll to hit still takes place, its the "who gets targetted" that is decided by the hit profile overlapping with the attack profile. Once the target is determined, the roll to hit is made as normal.
Fast moving targets would be harder to hit than a standing target. A tank could step infront of an incoming fireball or "crowd" a blaster so all attacks have to hit the tank. Blasters, trollers etc would have to move for position. Keeping you sniper free to find position could be the difference between winning and losing a fight.
And the changes to PvP almost killed it completely. so, PvP wont work the same as PvE. PvP wont work as a half ***** "fix" cos players wont play it. so option 3, re-invent the underlying feature to change the gameplay to more closely align with popular and successful PvP games, ie: twitch + skill + luck + tactics.
steampunkette's post above about autoturn + auto aim is pretty much what I was saying too. -
as long as they come up with some different bonuses, i say go for it.

glad you got it working.

Please, do not spam or post hateful or rude things in this thread;
that is not what this thread was started for. Be positive!!!
Hey, Paragon. I just wanted to start a thread to give the developers and other people that make this game as awesome as it is. You don't have to type articles; a few sentences should suffice. I think that a hundred people posting two sentences would be more meaningful to them than ten people posting a short story.
Honestly, I appreciate everything the developers do. I also appreciate fresh content, as it adds value to the game and the $15 opportunity cost becomes even more well-spent. However, I am also able to put myself in the mindset of the developers ("We add all of this new content to please the player base but then they act unappreciative and post negative comments about it. They experience the new content and then treat it as if it is nothing, since it is minor to them. We bust our a** for these people, yet they give us no respect") or something related to this.
For this, I think we need to make sure the developers know that their work is very meaningful to us. I feel they don't get the credit they deserve and even though it is their job to add new features to the game, they don't have to add as much as they do. (They could just add one patch every 6 months or whatever, but the game would just be like any other game. . .)
Anyways, just post your thanks and gratitude here for the people that make this game what it is. Take it away, guys!
My thanks:
Thank you for all the content you have released in previous issues (as well as the near-future updates that we are about to see soon™). I really appreciate the effort and enthusiasm you have shown this gaming community. Keep up the great work!

you need to go to the nvidia site. choose the drivers for your specific card, hit download, then save to desktop. after it is finished, remove the old/corrupt video drivers, then restart your comp and run the new drivers that were saved to your desktop. you should have an uncorrupted driver then and be able to see the colors.
edit: you WILL NOT be able to change the video card yourself. DO NOT attempt this. -
post a CoHhelper report and hijackthis report and we might be able to tell what the problem is. it definately is not because of any patches. is this happening when you run anything else?
-
your video drivers are showing corrupt. if you can get it to boot in safe mode, you may be able to fix it.

Quote:while i understand what he/she meant, there are toggles in the game that do energy damage which give a good indication of how a damage toggle would work. and as for his/her back peddling about not meaning ET, look at the title and the entire first post.Originally Posted by Clebstein
Those are PBAoE, not "enemy targeted." He's talking about toggles that deal damage to the enemy you have selected.
-
i knew you were talking about Vincent from FF7. but yeah, Vincent from Pulp Fiction could pop into mind to.
-
death shroud from DA.
lightning field from Electric armor.
those are the 2 i could find in 5 mins. both minor damage due to being a toggle. -
i'm going to go out on a really long limb and suggest everyone pull off their bids for things that aren't in game. move the infl/inf to other toons and sit back and wait. if the nerfs indicate the way the devs go, i see this being a huge problem for people with more then the infl/inf cap.
of course, if i got out farther on that limb, i would say they are going to seed the market but that would be a terrible idea. -
no. there is no need to make it a toggle. and there is no change that needs to be made at this point. it still does decent damage and i have no trouble using it when teamed. make sure it is the first attack you use on a baddie that is not being targeted by any one else. that should not be hard considering that there are always more baddies then team mates.

1 bajillion % /unsigned. we DO NOT need any more ED then we have already gotten.

do you have anything else running while attempting to log in? also, check to make sure that you have done a disc clean up and defrag. check to see if any newer video drivers are available and make sure you save them to the desktop then use driver sweeper after removing and rebooting in safe mode to make sure there are no remenants of the old drivers left.
-
not to mention, imagine the redraw issues...

stick around and you will get those rewards. vet rewards are for continuosly paying your sub fees and are a gift from NC. if you change them now you WILL piss off a lot of people and then when they leave there will be no more rewards to worry about.
and FYI, they do not give out vet rewards on a monthly basis, they are given every 3 months of CONTINUOUSLY paying your sub fees. -
Quote:speedfan is the only one i think i haven't tried. good thing to know.Originally Posted by Master-Blade
SpeedFan has the option to use C or F. I just changed mine to F as a comparison, and it reports 90F for the Hard Drive as well, which is about 32C, nice and cool... and normal.
HalfSlice, if you are not seeing any voltages or other temps, you might have to click Configure and enable a few more devices. It seems strange to me that SpeedFan would default you to just the harddrive. -
Quote:are you sure it isn't 91C. if it is, your card is running at 195.8F. Celsius is what any program i know of that reads temps reads in. you have a card that is going bad. remember that electronics are not perfect and can be brand new in the box and not work right from the start.Originally Posted by xXHalfSliceXx
Well.... SpeedFan is only detecting HD0 at 91F
Its not seeing any voltages, or fans or other temps.... Bah. -
Quote:thats because of the many applications that the word "wood" can be used for. if you are talking on regular game chat it will not filter it.Originally Posted by Stuka
Try it in the mission architect. Create a custom character and put 'wood' in his description. The word 'naked' is also filtered in the architect.
