  1. It's like you're talking in a different language.
  2. This is very disappointing and such a shame because it was so great that NC Soft seemed to have initially been thinking of giving a good level of service to their existing players.

    It'll be interesting to see whether the European online purchase of in-game items is similarly delayed as there's no exclusivity to the physical DVD release in the UK.

    Might you eventually release the in-games items from the Hero Gear Kit as a stand alone purchase also? Maybe even as a combo in-game only purchase with this offer?

    Pretty please with sugar on top!
  4. Thanks for making the extras available through an online code. It's especially good for us UK folks who still like hanging around on the US servers.

    Now, if you could let me buy the VIP & power slide online I'd be even happier.
  5. Just adding my thanks to those above for your very helpful post, Positron. It's appreciated by all us badgers
  6. My petition yesterday after 5 rocket launches was met with a "It's a known bug. It will be awarded retroactively when it is fixed for 5 launches." rather than getting the badge awarded to me.

    I have always found any GMs I've had dealings with to be helpful, knowledgeable and courteous.

    However, inconsitancies when dealing with issues like this are annoying. GMs should be following a set of rules so that all players are treated equally. It may be that Brooklyn was awarded the badge before policy changed (maybe because the fix is sorted and will be due soon) in which case I'm fine with that but I'd be interested to hear if anyone has successfully petitioned and got it in the last 24 hours as my petition was at 5pm last night.

    Just picked up Rocketman the other day after launching 5 rockets (2 one week, 3 about a week and a half later). The badge was not awarded right away but I petitioned after launching the 5th and had a GM award it to me as I was leaving the zone.

    I think it depends on which GM answers your petition (unless they've suddenly changed policy due to lots of requests) as I know of several people who had the badge awarded to them by GMs but my /petition was just met with a standard... it's bugged, it will award retroactively when it's fixed.

    Maybe I should just go launch it another 5 times.

    Whenever I hear "Build Up" go off, I immediately start running BACKWARDS. It's pavlovian, at this point. It's been a long time since anyone AS'd me successfully.

    Wait a minute... you're saying I should turn off the iTunes and put the sound back up on the game... ?

    So the 2 gladiator badges Red Cap (Toothbreaker)and Winter Minion (Toy Collector) that did not work at the time. Are they going to be retroactive for players getting the achievement badges?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Well the Toy Collector one will be at least... otherwise noone would get it

    Badge Questions

    If you guys really want Positron to answer important badge questions perhaps you might think of taking certain elements of these conversations into other threads. I really don't envy him the task of wading through a lot of these discussions... yes, they're important ones to have but perhaps the same points can be made through actual badge questions to Positron rather than arguing out your own opinions on other people's questions to him.

    Badge Questions

    Will there ever be a way for toons that have outleveled the PVP zone contacts to be able to run the missions? If they are rewarding badges, then you are arbitrarily limiting those of us that have already outleveled them. I believe Statesman said that ONLY the tutorial badges would be unattainable once you've missed them. As it stands, there is no way to get the patrol badges that I can find. I've gotten the others via teams, but only the mission holder gets the patrol mission badges.

    Exemplar/Malefactor to someone doing the mission and you will get the badge when they do.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Is that something you've changed recently or are planning to change because when I've attempted this in the past only the mission holder gets awarded the badge for patrol missions.
    To me it's seems like it's awarded the same way that a end of mission xp bonus is only awarded to the player who owns the kill x of x hunt in zone mission.

    Badge Questions

    Nothing specific to ask but just want to say that we really appreciate the comments & feedback on badges, Positron. It's already cleared up a hell of a lot.
