    Yes, god forbid a corporation that's out to make money tries to charge money for a product. VIPs are already getting free powers with i22. They plan from the start was to charge for Beast Mastery and Staff Fighting. They said this quite plainly, so don't act like they're pulling some kind of switch-up on us.

    "Delay" implies that they have missed a promised deadline. They have not.

    Given the OP's reg date, I'm pretty sure they didn't "spend their way" up to tier 9 but legitimately earned it via vet time. The snarky attitude over someone asking what to do with their spare tokens is unnecessarily hostile.

    CoH on steam

Competition is good for the consumer.
    Yes, god forbid Steam actually want to get some returns on the bandwidth cost from distributing these games... How greedy of them. ( By the way, Origin is a steaming pile. )

    Well, putting aside the previously made points of it not really being a new change...

    ...yanno, it's only their game and all....

    Funny, I've only once had a problem keeping her alive since the first fix to her AI. And they toughened her up a bit then, too.

    Yanno, I'm not really hanging on for those after the disappointment that was the fire and ice set. I was excited about the phoenix wings, and once I saw them....they look rigid and cheesy. The waterfall backpacks were cool, though. Everything else, meh.

    Well, considering they said Beast Mastery wouldn't be launching with i22 from the very first leaks, I think that this shouldn't come as a surprise. Staff Fighting's a bit of a surprise on the other hand, though there may have been the same warning on that and I just missed it.

    How are crafting and shopping not productive?

    Actually, it happens all the time. I've witnessed it with the Halloween event a couple years ago myself. Sun suddenly came up and doors stopped ToT'ing.

    Probably because, at least in this case, she's not breaking the damn rules. Just your warped interpretation of them. By "non constructive posts", they're referring to flaming, trolling, spamming and such. Not tongue-in-cheek humor.

    I think you missed the part where i said i have her on ignore, but just had to open this post since it was the 1st reply to my OP.
    The problem is that your "commenting on her" has bypassed the point of outright harassment ages ago.

    Oh good god, grow a sense of humor. By that rule, 90% of the posts on this forum should be pulled. Get a grip.
  15. I didn't get my answer. I wanted to know if they'd ever make it possible to skip the "run to the PvP zone liaison" missions and "Run to the Hollows/Striga/etc" missions without burning an autocomplete. I can see how these help new players, but, good god, as a 7 year vet, I don't need to waste time on every damn new character I make for a fedex run with no rewards that's required to get further missions from that contact. I suggested perhaps using the new contact popup to introduce these folks instead.

    What exactly would it take for you to consider it a "fair shake"? Being able to advance as fast as trials? For cripes' sake, it IS still an MMO even if you choose to solo. Of course there are going to be better rewards faster from teaming...

    ...and note this is coming from an avid soloer.

    They will not go for the obvious April fool's joke by releasing it on April 2nd, they have something else in store for that.
    History doesn't sufficiently establish any pattern useful for predicting the future.

    For an MM with of defense buffs for his pets, such as bots/FF, it's actually better to try to keep the aggro on the pets. Therefore, BG mode is much less useful to them overall. The pets will end up having much lower survival rates when BG mode is used heavily.

    You mean like the SSAs, new powersets and revamped zones coming with the next issue free to VIPs, etc, etc, etc? No one ever said we'd be getting ALL the content for free.
