Just an idea for testing flight speed. Have a friend stand exactly a mile from you while you're hovering up in the air with nothing between the two of you. Then select your friend and hit follow. You should fly straight to him with no deviations. If you don't have a friend that can help you out, you may be able to do this with a stationary NPC (trainer, contacts, etc).

I guess this is a good thing, but it doesn't really effect me. I typically die 2-3 times from levels 1-10.... and the debt is typically gone by the end of the mission. After that, I probably die about once per level, and the debt is gone before I hardly notice it. Are other people out there really dying so much?

Who cares?

New costumes = good thing

If you don't like them, don't use them.

"To an extent" is what makes me think. The quote doesn't say: "Can players who aren't in a battle team watch the battle?" it says " Can we watch heroes battle it out in the arena?". "To an extent" could mean yes, it's possible to watch heroes battle it out, but only if you're on the team.

I see your point. It would be nice to get a clarification on this.

You will be able to view the events in "Observer Mode", either when they are running, or if you are defeated and players on your side are still running around.

[/ QUOTE ] If SpongeCake is right, what could this mean? Can participants switch between active and observer mode at will? (unless they're dead of course)

Sooooo.... if there's 300 spectators observing a match, will there be 300 camera drones buzzing around everywhere? Could be annoying. Hopefully they aren't tab-targetable, or a herd of them could cause major problems. Even if they aren't tab-targetable they could cause major problems just by getting in the way.

Don't get me wrong, I like the idea, I'm just playing devil's advocate.

The idea is cool for fallen teammates, just seems like it could cause problems if spectators are drones too.

Also, how will you enter a match as an observer? I'm assuming there could be hundreds of instanced matches going on at once. Are they viewable by invitation only? Will there be a "current matches" sign to view? Random?

If you're like most people, you probably already keep both your power trays up at all times... and you wish that you could have a third one up! This bind will change the function of the left alt key (or whatever key you choose). When pressed, your trays will switch to show the 3rd and 4th trays, and when released the trays will return to the 1st and 2nd tray.

Change the paths as needed.
The reason I used prev_tray_alt for the secondary tray, but goto_tray # for the primary tray is that goto_tray # seemed more reliable... if the bind got messed up, at least another key press would bring back the right tray. Unfortunately, there is no similar command for the secondary tray, as far as I know.

Thanks to Blue_Volt's post earlier in the thread for providing a method to do this.

The prestige powers are missing as well, "prestige power quick", etc.
