  1. The Black Manta design was nice, and the zombie-ish Clayface looked good, too. That's about the best I can say about the episode.

    This means I'm going to have to reread the series and cringe every single time he annoyingly uses "of" when he should've used "'ve".
  3. I always aim to have a gazillion% regen. Of course, I always fail to achieve that number, but it's nice to have dreams.

    This is why I reject Arcana's math voodoo!
    I just work from the assumption that the zone buff applies first, ergo all powers are recharging twice as fast before other factors come into play.

    Answer: I know how to do #1. Step by step, change by change, I can do that if the devs asked me how. Trust me: if you think this is technically impossible even if you are a red name you're probably wrong**. On the other hand, I have no idea if #2 is doable at all given the limits of the game engine, even with large amounts of development time short of rewriting the way recharge works.
    The obvious (from a perspective of ignorance ) solution to #2 would be a PVP-zone-wide unresistable recharge buff.

    Still, if it were useful you'd see it once when you logged in, after which it would remember that you've already agreed to it on that account.

    Unless it's an AV, given that they tend to laugh off debuffs and mezzes. Which is particularly annoying given their ridiculous regen rates and HPs. And downright excruciating if the AV in question likes to (apparently) use Siphon Speed and zip around a chaotic Oranbega map with gusto any time you touch them. (I don't recall her name... was that the Diabolique others are griping about?)
  8. I lose my mouse cursor all the time. I can't determine whether it's a problem with the game, the computer, or the aging human player. I've been banking on the latter, though.

    They also (in a way) train you to be ready for them. You get a feel for how long you have until they arrive, how you should set up, how you should position yourself. They add a level of... well, conditioning if you will.
    There is no positioning yourself for the ambush that appears on top of you, or the one that appears on top of you soon after that one appears, or the third ambush that appears while you're just finishing off the last of the first ambush and then getting defeated having used up all your Inspirations defeating the 5 or so +1 enemies that appeared in the first ambush while soloing at -1/x0. The only conditioning there is being conditioned to accept getting stomped into the ground. Even the allied NPCs received that gentle conditioning with gusto in that mission.
  10. I haven't even been able to unlock Incarnate slots on any of my 50s. But they seem like a good idea to me, though the mentioned pets are the least appealing ability I've heard about.

    I'll echo that this is all bling security, not real security, and will annoy users more than helps.
    Both ISPs I use assign dynamic IP address's. I'll be reauthrising every damn day.

    I bet that it is not going to change.
    My master NCsoft account has never had the same password as my CoH/Forum account.

    Oh, and I got a purple, and while I was under the blow dryer, I sold it for 78 Mill.

    I felt casual and my hair looked fantastic. I also had that glow of having freshly conditioned hair and 78 Mill in my pocket!
    Sweet. You can make a lot of flour with 78 mills.
  13. This "Security Update" is a pointless irritation.

    If that's the way you spelled it in-game, I'm not entirely surprised you got it. If you got Disappear, though, that would be a shocker.

  20. On Virtue:
    Bad Blood (Quillpower Scrapper with spikes of extruded crystallized poisonous blood)
    Bullshoot (DP Blaster that's a minotaur)
    Gravity Whale (Grav/Son Controller looks like a humanoid Orca)
  21. ...I'd save 15 dollars a month. Unless a suitable replacement came along. Of course, if one came along before these servers closed down I'd jump ship in a heart beat.
  22. I've only seen it a couple of times myself (on Virtue), and not recently. No team is that much of a privelege to be on as far as I'm concerned.

    Being casual is a mindset of you jump in play get out and forget about it, or put it on the back burner, its not knowing everything about an AT, Power Set, or function of the game.
    That's casual minus the gamer.
