  1. I'm rather partial to a name I saw over in the DP beta forum: Hare Trigger. A bunny girl. Another by the same was Herr Trigger, costume design should be obvious.

    Actually, sounds like the name was a play on "gun kata". Gun-fu reference.

    Would be even worse on those other forums. You -may- get trolled on those other forums for asking a question. But you -will- get trolled on them for starting your post out with something like "I know I'm gonna get trolled for this...". That's inviting the trolls to come play.

    You know, that's not exactly a good way to start if you want to keep on people's good sides. The fact that you have gotten mostly helpful responses is a solid testament to how wrong you are about these forums.

    The answers that've been given are pretty on-target. You should be able to just log in. If you can't, contact support.
  5. Above 60? Hell, above 30, while not unnoticeable, is trivial, IMO.

    Get real. It's a game. Get over it.
    There's a difference between "PLing efficiently" and "exploiting". You know damn well what I meant. Put the strawman away.

    There will be lvl 50 noobs no matter if there are exploits present or not.
    True, but the exploits make them more numerous by far.

    Nobody's saying their way is the only way to play the game. But that doesn't mean there aren't WRONG ways. And the DEVS ( You know them, the guys who make the game and, thus, the rules. ) have made it pretty clear that abusing PL exploits -IS- one of the wrong ways.

They think they are never wrong, like they are experts on everything having to do with this game, these people are just as annoying on a tf or whatever mish!


    The truth is, you have a choice as to who you play with, if the noob index is to high you can always quit the team... when you join a random team you get what you get... To avoid this, form your own team or join an sg and play with them, play with friends if you are low on friends join virtue and I'm sure you can find people to role play being your friend, then play with them...

    for the record there are plenty of people that have level 50 toons that have never gotten pled and still have no clue how to play their toon.
    it's just something you have to deal with when you play any mmo
    I'd say that the dramatic upsurge in clueless 50 n00bs served as proof enough that the exploits were affecting everyone. 'course, I don't see what that statement had to do with "using my logic"...

    Yeah, sure, I can quit a team with bad members. But when team after team ends up being like that in greater frequency since the exploits came to light, I don't see how anyone in their right mind can say that exploiting "only affects me if I let it"... Having to quit the team because of it affects me. Yeah, I choose who I play with...but that doesn't mean I don't end up wasting my time with PL n00bs trying to find a decent team.

    I don't care if I play an MMO with other people. I'll play however I want, as long as it's in accordance to the EULA.
    And here we come to the point of the matter: If you're abusing an exploit, you're not playing in accordance with the EULA.

    It doesn't matter who you're "playing for". The fact that you're in the same game with other people in and of itself affects them. In a single player game, play however you want. But when other people are involved, nothing you do affects "just you".

    ...and I'm supposed to know how well they play their character before I've ever seen them play? Golly, I didn't know psychic powers were a requirement for playing this game!

    Different name, same thing. I think "Bubble farm" was just more specific. "Meow" refers to the uber farms in general.

    Kind of a random codeword for the uber-PL exploit farms from the early days of AE. It's linked somehow to the first big exploit farm mission that was created, though the details escape me at the moment. It was a mito farm, as I recall. I -think- the mission name, details, etc all only said one word in each field: "meow".

    Don't you love when people think that what they do doesn't affect anyone else in an MMO?

    very fact that you can have some control over how a story or mission
    is told is to ME a good thing.

    But I may one of only a few that feels that way.

    Cheers!
    I agree. It's a fantastic RP tool, really. Nice to whip together something for a storyline and run your RP buddies through it.

    If they didn't like leveling quickly, they wouldn't be doing it, would they?
    "Many, many people" =/= "most". Just because the speedballers are the most visible doesn't mean they're the majority.

    And what I said still applies. Again, their house, their rules and all. What's wrong with a game's creators making the rules for said game? When did this become a problem?

    Really? And you've got research and figures to back this up? Or are you talking out of your rear ( still )?

    No, just more of NCSoft closing up blatant exploits. Get over yourself, they were awarding WAY too much xp for the challenge they posed.

    But I fail to see the problem anyway. Their house, their rules and all. I'm wondering when it became a problem for the people who make a game to also make the rules for that game...

    That's all it is on the surface, yes. Even underneath, the tweaks aren't that huge, but they do make a huge difference. Windows 7 is what Vista should have been. Unfortunately, you can't get the major stability, compatibility, etc improvements without shelling out for the upgrade

    OP, have you watch the footage from Hero Con? The 14:00 mark is when they start to show the fancy Ultra Mode stuff.
