  1. Since I can't set foot in the proper Galaxy City; I'll be standing under the statue in Atlas where I began my beta journey with Tyger on Union.

    I will watch the sun rise out of my window as the sun sets for the last time in the City.

    And I will mourn the loss of a companion of nearly 9 years tainted with the last chat I will see: "You have been forcibly disconnected from the server"

    I found a way to get anyone into any Resistance underground base. Stumbled onto it by accident literally.

    Teleport supression covers the entire chamber... except if you stand in the water. That little trench you have to skip over is immune to the supression so if you have recall friend; you can port anyone inside; hero, villain, rogue, vigilante or even Loyalist.

    AP33 Forever!!

    For-ever!

    (Logged in an alt parked in Atlas and 33 is still up).
  4. Wow, official response and it only took them FIVE WEEKS TO MAKE ONE FRIGGIN PARAGRAPH!
  5. 6 hours for server hardware maintenance, 8 hours for a publish. That's the window they give in case the proverbial hits the fans during system testing.

    It's back. Needs more bacon.

    Well this is what you should've seen.

    I found the Nova counter, just missed the first eruption in the NE and then nearly missed the second which thankfully I didn't turn away further than I did.

    I also searched in vain for the Imperial one. Thankfully the directions for the Nova one were accurate.
  10. Only reason I wouldn't pay more than now is I was already paying for 6 accounts

    Although $1 or $2 wouldn't be that much of a stretch even if they only offered it monthly. It's amazing we're still on the same priceplans as when we started 8 years ago.

    Just like the threats we've seen virtually played out in the Rikti War Zone, Dark Astoria, Pocket D and other such places, there comes a time when you take up the cause of people you never imagined you'd be working with and fight for the opportunity to argue over who the heroes are and who the villains are another day.

    I wish the Crash Site and 'Faultline' were accessible via Ouroboros. I never got to see the old Crash Site properly before i9 and I loved floating down into the deep crevace of 'faultline' and seeing Circle of Thorns demons waiting there.

    I'm glad this was changed though. The problem was when events became triggerable by players AND were running back-to-back. Admin spam soon filled entire windows as Rikti Invade, Rikti Invade, Rikti Invade was literally spammed in every window. It's better in small doses.

    That is awesome. That's just like minimum settings where the tint doesn't show on my system. I love the change.

    Incidentally; the metallic sheen is still there but the tinting is gone, correct?

    Is this behavior of Overwhelming Force indeed just a bug? It's certainly...weird. Are they supposed to have "levels?"
    They do because of the way they are awarded by the table system at the end of the event. It was also an issue as the enhancement screen was reading this and not allowing them to be slotted on characters who weren't high enough. This was fixed.

    Also:
    Because someone has to post it in these things (30-day rule, bleh).

    "I just want the costume parts and don't give two hoots about ATOs".

    I gave up on a separate release for the costume packs and used some tokens to buy multipacks. I'll do the same when the second one comes round since I don't find the other repeatables worth tokens.

    OPs suggestion is nice; never gonna happen.
  21. Am I the only who saw "Prisoners have broken out of the Zig maximum security prison!" and thought "NO! Really? /JimCarreySarcasm".

    Looks like Kings got that up-to-20 upgrade after all. Gives it a neat tie-in to I.P. which will now be between Kings and Brickstown...


    ... so Independence Port revamp in i25?

  23. A friend asked me to help out with his base. Now while the walls were made of pine (lagtastic) and a nightmare to get around at first (before I deleted them by the hundreds) he had made a few good entries like a fireplace, breakfast bar/open plan kitchen and one of the best items:



    A four-poster bed. Desk blocks for the core of the bed, cabinets for the edges and headboard and a wall-seating unit for the pillows. The posts are made of freestanding banner details sunk into the floor to conceal the footstand and the tops clip into the cieling giving the illusion of a four-poster bed.

Males and Huge can still pick this pattern on Pants lower body, Star herself can still reset to it but it's not possible to select in the creator itself (files won't load without 'fix'ing either).
