Please stop dumbing the game down just to make a buck.

Now I'm just guessing on this but I'm betting the limitations of the code will require that for every different version of Gabriel's Hammer (the different types of hammers), there has the be a recipe for that version otherwise when you pull out the hammer, it will probably be a random version as theres nothing to specify to the game what version of the hammer you have.

It could even be free and given to all and it could last for a month or so then disappear.
It is an Idea!

I LOVE playing an empathy defender, but one of my biggest pet peeves is resurrecting someone who, in between validation and execution, pops an Awaken. Not only is that downed character now very vulnerable for several seconds, I've just wasted a Resurrect and it will be a while before it is recharged. I know several other powers do that, as well (Absorb Pain, for instance). A wasted Resurrect, to me, is different.

I don't know a good solution here, because I don't know what's possible in the game code. I'm not sure if it would overbalance the game to allow the Resurrect to go off instantly, but tie up the defender in an animation for the same amount of time as now, but maybe that is reasonable.

Yes, I know that's stupid. I just think it'd be funny.

It would be a trip to see someone just attempt to make the mission because the 4 travel powers would all work wildly different in their usefulness, and I don't know that they could ever be balanced. it would be funny though if you teleported onto someone's car and they freaked out and lost control of their vehicle...

but yeah, it would be worth seeing in game.

It... is. It's far superior to Sprint alone. You don't get SS nor SJ by default, you have to spend power picks on them.

I did like the idea of an additional option for a purely cosmetic toggle, though.

So, it accomplished something at least

The only real shame about the OP buying Beast Run yesterday without consulting anyone about how it worked, is that had he asked and waited for our replies he could have bought it today when it went on sale for 375pp as opposed to the 500pp it normally sells for.

I think Zwillinger explained it best that really shifted my perception. Basically, if they travel somewhere to host or participate in an event, you're not going to get much presence because of how expensive it is. Also, they have to schlep or ship everything they use, such as giveaway items.

At the Player Summit in November, they had over half the crew there and it was awesome. Not that I would object to seeing Zwillinger, Positron, and maybe a couple more devs in my hometown, but given the choice, I'd rather see dozens of devs, reps, managers, QA people, artists, etc. by going there than five or six people here.

If I could change one thing, though, it would be the costume codes they give away. It's simply not fair to give away in-game perks to people for being in a certain geographical location, because for most practical purposes, it's simply impossible for some people to make the trip. Physical swag I don't mind so much. T-shirts, posters, etc. work really well for this kind of purpose. Or maybe codes to get some Paragon Market swag (e.g. cards that can be redeemed for a few hundred Paragon Points?) But in my humble opinion, unique in-game swag shouldn't be something that costs person A $40 and a quarter tank of gas, but person B $thousands in airfare, hotel costs, transportation, etc.

So unless something changes and they start rolling in dough, I'd just as soon we have a big shindig each year in Mountain View/Palo Alto.
