Not all people do AE farms Just saying there are some none corrupted people here.

I'm not saying everyone in-game is farming.

My point is that MA/AE has given a vehicle to those who wish to do it, and do it they shall (go to AP or Cap and see who's there opposed to other zones - I'm sure they're there because those zones have an amazing array of missions and content).

If you don't farm, more power to you. But honestly, the only advantage that double xp gave was faster levelling. And, well, I'm not a genius, but an all-boss MA single mission arc with custom mobs on an outdoor map is not designed to teach you the lore of Co*, and there's a ton of these it seems (and as much as they're pulled, more seem to replace them as is evidenced by the broadcast chat in AP or Cap).

Why bother? Even with the changes made to MA/AE, it's still farm-city.

Oh, wait, someone could get to 50 within 4 hours instead of 8...

And no, I'm not trolling. Probably not being diplomatic, but not trolling...

Obviously, the telling is in the playing, but at first glance this is an absolutely amazing achievement from a company who I'm sure has had the usual restructure dramas to deal with.

As another post said, it will be interesting to hear the complaints, simply from the point of view that they will have to be inventive. It will be good for a laugh.

I'm very excited about this issue - so much stuff for both sides of the game. Well done, guys - now, I wonder whether Blizzard will release their next expansion for free??

PS - After reading the list for i12, I hope the "I pay my $15 per month" threads will decrease. I for one think this proves beyond doubt that we get value for money. However, I'm expecting a different debate to start now, along the lines of "there's so much to explore in-game - you've caused a divorce!"

While I won't be able to partake for all 3 days, I sincerely thank the team for giving so much notice.

So, things may seem a bit quiet here on the boards, but over here...in the new digs, things are hopping.

Today earmarks the first day at the NCNC Studios and there is an air of excitement as we all unpack and set up in what will become our new home.

Good luck, and all the very best for the silly season. Remember, when christening the new place (as it's the perfect time of year to do it) stay away from your PCs - otherwise, the boards will be full of posts about the giant monster spawns that suddenly appear and attack only scrappers and stalkers.

While it may be the first drunk office prank I would actually endorse, the melee amongst us might not

Just as an update, I (by chance) ran into an ebay hero last night. To cut the story short, he was a 27 month vet who had been inactive for two years (he said) but could still get all the vet badges with an inactive account because he had the login and password.

When I challenged this, he said "phone" and then quit team. LMFAO.

However, it will be great when the CGT bugs are fixed!

I'd like to say 'thank you'. I didn't have any accounts, so decided to join up now that a universal login was available. All accounts were created with one set of input data from me. Bloody brilliant!

Keep up the good work!!

Due to ad hoc RL interferences that weekend (and the fact that Australia is almost a day ahead of server time), I'm going to miss most of it.

However, well done Posi and team!! Hopefully the next one will see me able to take full advantage of what is a fantastic thing!

For those in the Brisbane, Queensland area, I have bought the last card at Indooroopilly.

There are no cards at Redbank, either CBD stores, Cairns or Toowoomba.

All stores tell me they're not getting anymore in (hardly a surprise) but cannot tell me if they're getting the new PlayNC cards.

Any comment from the mods for Australian distributors? Can I purchase the codes through the internet from USA or Canada and apply them to my account?

what about australia? It seems apparent that EB games here have recalled all their current COV timecards and no-one knows what's happening. Please tell me that it's because they're getting these new time cards...

I second this post. Although we're a small number, it would have been nice to have our vendors (if any) listed in the outlet listing...
