You CAN tank with PFF.... just slot it for maximum recharge and pick up Taunt from the Presence pool.... then you can keep going in and out of it.

Yes, definitely pick up Assault as soon as you possibly can.

The reason why I suggested Arcana take a look at it is because I already know that she has a consistent method of testing.... and I'd just never heard of SaintTzu before.

That was awesome. This should totally be a web series.

This is something interesting. I never got the Going Rogue e-mail in my normal GMail account. That's the same e-mail account that I have IN my Account Settings right now. But I DID get it in my old Hotmail account... that I haven't used in over 4 years.

What gives? And where can I go other than the Account Settings page to change what e-mail address the marketing department has?

I prefer forum PvP.

But don't tell the mods!

Oh wait....

Ah, but Frost, you don't see that they ARE Munchkins here. Because this game has PvP zones instead of PvP everywhere, they compete with others by having more "stuff" and more "awesome" characters than others. They aren't doing it just for them... if this was a single player game, they would have left a long time ago, because there is no one to show their massive E-Peen to.

There are actually examples of that in a few threads that I have posted in recently, people literally admitting that they play to have "better stuff" and "better toons" than others. That is their sole motivation by their own admission.

They aren't Self-Actualizing like in Maslow's Pyramid. They are just petty and get their kicks by showing off "stuff".

That's their PvP in a non-PvP game.

30k to buy the recipe

Why would you pay that much for a common IO recipe? Are you just buying from the University/Workbench? If so, that's just a waste of money.

You got something against the vertically challenged now?

Explanation. I've been using that term since before I even got on the internet.

And now, reading that again... I have a new name for all the people complaining about the recent ticket mission cap. YAY!

Listen to Memphis Bill, but also consider buying uncommon IO recipes and vendoring them.... made me a LOT more money than the SOs, but that's me. And that was a few months ago, so things might have changed.

With at least a dozen other probably more qualified folks from the forums applying? I don't stand a chance.

I did try, and I didn't stand a chance. Look up.

Wow, someone earlier said it took them a week to get a rejection letter from Paragon Studios? It took me less than 8 hours.

[/ QUOTE ]

Did they give a reason why you were rejected?

[/ QUOTE ]

No, just the generic "we feel others are more qualified".

Well, I feel like a piece of [censored] right now.

IOs actually are cheaper over time... read this.

Make common IOs that you can afford, and then hold off for a few levels until you KNOW you can afford what you want. IOs never expire, that's why I love them.

Seriously, IOs make playing the game so much easier and CHEAPER.

[u]I created this thread because any dev response to anything PvP is older than 2 months and is in closed threads.

Ghost Widow wishes to remain anonymous.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'll bet Ghost Widow is really a macho man and is afraid of being outed as the one that plays Ghost Widow because it'll hurt his MANLY cred.

Gah, Cuppa beat me to it.

I've applied, but I doubt that I'll get it, considering half the people that use these forums are qualified for that position. Would be my dream job though, it would be doing what I love to do with a company I'd love to work for.

I do actually love doing QA work. Finding problems, and FIGURING out why those problems happen, and what fixes there are, is very rewarding to me.

This is exactly what I do with my current job, except with cash registers, ATMs and check sorting machines instead of code.

CoX has been steadily losing players over the years

[/ QUOTE ]

Proof?

They could always commission you as a freelancer on a per job basis without hiring you...

[ QUOTE ]
And in today's economy, they are certainly not going to reallocate funds from necessary positions intended to help boost the game's performance and playability just to have someone like me making videos for them, no matter how cool the playerbase thinks my work might be.

[/ QUOTE ]

Especially when you'll do it for them for FREE.

Something that someone just gave me? Sure. It didn't bother me, because I didn't have enough time to grow an emotional attachment to it.

But we're not talking about things that you have already, we're talking about potential "stuff", "stuff" that you COULD possibly earn in the future.

Are you honestly saying that you have an emotional attachment to the virtual "stuff" that you haven't even gotten yet?

Okay, let me try to understand this logic, please:

<ul type="square">[*]1) CoX exists without the MA system. The players are reasonably happy for 5 years.[*]2) The developers introduce a new MA system on April 8th, which includes its own reward system. The players are still reasonable happy.[*]3) The developers take away (let's be a little extreme here) 75% of the rewards on May 12th, a little over a month after the Issue was released. Many players are upset and some are even thinking about quitting.[/list]
Huh?

So, why does 3) somehow make the game worse off than 1), before the MA system existed at all?
