Quote:Boy, Joss Whedon really loves his screenings, doesn't he? I still say he cheated himself out of a fair chunk of box office revenues by over-screening Serenity.Originally Posted by Hero_of_Steel
Marvel Studios have announced that they will run 'first-come-first-served' advance screenings in cities around the world for "The Avengers".

Quote:The problem is only one of those TF is available to players below level 45, and that one not to players below 35. The Respec Trials at least go down to level 24.Originally Posted by EnigmaBlack
If they must recycle I'd much rather it be recycling of the Co-Op TFs: Tin Mage, Apex, ITF, LGTF. Heck since Incarnates came out they could have even created another one or two Co-Op TFs. They could have even strung together 5-6 DA missions into a quick Co-Op TF.

Quote:The fallacy in comparing anything Lucas puts out today to the Star Wars Holiday Special, is that the Holiday Special is the one piece of Star Wars dreck Lucas actually disavows. Anything else that is officially licensed presumably has his stamp of approval.Originally Posted by BrandX
Wouldn't buy it. But then, how is this any different than a Star Wars christmas really?
That said, I didn't watch the clip and don't really care what kind of Star Wars stuff they put out anymore. My Star Wars collecting days ended about three years before I discovered COH, and this is a MUCH cheaper hobby. -
Quote:Heh, thanks. Looks like I'm the April fool this year.Originally Posted by Honbrid
You're looking at April 2011, mouse. April 2012 is at the top of the list, although there is a questionable typo there too, namely a couple weeks that last for 8 months.
That's probably because there are so many fewer Strike Forces than Task Forces, so to keep things "even" they have to keep recycling the Respec trials.Quote:Originally Posted by _Pine_
Is it just me, or do they do Respecs way to often for the WTF.
Seems like every other WTF is a dumb Respec trial >.> and they take so long (blue side). -
Quote:Everyone knows all the good names were taken like six years ago.Originally Posted by Aneko
I like to watch new characters enter the game, and see what kinds of names and costumes people come up with. It's a little depressing at times. <.<

Quote:Same here. I had never even heard of the book series before the show aired and I picked up all the books shortly after the first season ended. I was amazed at how faithful the show was to the novel A Game of Thrones, and I was so psyched after reading it that I immediately started A Clash of Kings against my instincts.Originally Posted by Hit Streak
I should mention that I've not read the books (yet). I actually enjoy books more after I've watched a movie or show about them.
I frankly can't see how they're going to fit everything from A Clash of Kings into the second season, let alone pulling in some material from the third book. -

And on the off chance this is some kind of contest...

They've updated the list of WST for April, and what is up with the timing? It looks like they are switching from a Tuesday reset to a Thursday reset schedule with there being one WST that is only available for two days - Positron and Tarikoss on April 12 and 13.
Kinda weird. -
I enjoyed it, but I wish now I hadn't already read "A Clash of Kings" because I found myself getting distracted from the action and dialogue because I was mentally comparing it to the book.
Let's see what new characters were introduced last night...
Stannis Baratheon
Melisandre, the Red Woman
Davos, the Onion Knight
Craster
Sir Dontas Hollard
That's all I can recall ATM. -
I hope this costume set sells so well that it can single-handedly finance some sort of extraterrestrial zone (Moon, Rikti homeworld, Shivan homeworld, etc.)
We need someplace to use those awesome space suits where they won't look out of place. -

Also... Forbidden Planet Leslie Nielsen face for the win!!

Quote:Really? I figured it was because people were keeping all the enhancements the converted to use on current and future characters rather than selling them.Originally Posted by Lohenien
the reason things havent gone the way we expected is because the devs *****'d on enhancement converters and still haven't gotten them available via the other merit types.

Quote:Did you mean the center of the galaxy? 'Cause I'm not sure we even know where the center of the universe is now. Other than the vague description that Tatooine is the planet farthest from it.Originally Posted by Innovator
Pretty much. Or you could also think of it this way, the Mayans were sophisticated enough to predict when the alignment of the Earth and Sun to the center of the universe (which they called Hunab-Ku) had last happened and when it was slated to occur again.
Edit: If you think about it in that light, it shows just how important the end of the long count is...it really is the biggest new years event there is. -
Quote:I don't doubt people will do this, and I would imagine there are already tourist agencies offering "End of the World" travel packages to the Yucatan or wherever. What's funny to me is that it's not like going to the Olympics, or taking a trip to see an eclipse or something. If the world really would end, you wouldn't have anyone to brag to that you were there when it happened. On the other hand, when the world doesn't end, all your friends will make fun of you by blowing a bunch of money on a trip to Mexico because you believed in the so-called prophecy, or whatever.Originally Posted by Lothic
I take it you don't remember how many stupid things people did back when everyone was worried about "Y2K" ending the world. Trust me when I say there will be people dumb enough to travel to Mexico for this, even if it only becomes a big hippy party event like Innovator said.

Quote:You're fighting a losing battle, giggleleaks. Any time a VIP asks about a special priviledge for their subscription, there is a very vocal group of players who shout down that VIP and paint him or her as a snob or elitist.Originally Posted by giggleleaks
They Need to make the standards Clear When they first came out with the Exhalted Server they stated it would be a Privilege to join in on the Costume Contests for VIP players and now it is open to everyone Plus Exhalted has to move characters to Virtue that is just wrong when EVERY player on Exhalted is a VIP player! And why should Exhalted have to copy (and do without locked costumes) and move to virtue if that is NOT Their Preference???
I'm guessing those people never join frequent flyer programs, never participate in "buy eight, get the ninth free" promotions at sandwich shops, and refuse to accept bonuses at work, unless all their coworkers get one too. In short, they are better people than you or me.

Quote:Thanks for the info on Melt Armor, I was planning to respec into that. Your build definitely gives me some things to think about. My philosophy has always been to lock 'em up and burn 'em down, rather than to try to build for defense. One other question - is this build permadom?Originally Posted by RevolverMike
You can now take patron powers earlier. First one starting at 35. No incinerate, fire breathe or combustion cause I am soft capped to Range Defense so I stay far away from enemies. Even using hover to fight from above if need be. Tho usually thats only during trials since anything while solo is locked down. Currently have incinerate in my build since I was going to use it to hole a Hecatomb set but since the Archetype sets came out I now need 1 less purple set.
No terrify cause I dont like cones and between the other mass controls I'm usually fine.
And telekinesis just cause its awesome.
From a design point of view anyways. I always fought internally about removing it for rain of fire but i guess I wont have to now. Only other thing I'd want to take is melt armor but its not worth it on a Dom. 
Only -11 resistance. -
Interesting. I have the exact same type of character Mind/Fire/Fire dom that I have been planning to respec for a while now. I haven't made a lot of the same pool power choices as you though.
For example, I didn't take the fighting pool, and I find it interesting that you skipped Terrify, but took Telekinesis, and skipped Incinerate, Firebreath and Combustion.
Also, how did you get Fireball at 35 and Rise of the Phoenix at 41? -
Quote:Very disappointing. Clearly the Devs know we like badges - they fixed the problem with the one that was not being awarded at the end of DiB, and I'm sure they've fixed a dozen other buggy badge issues since the time Freedom launched.Originally Posted by Zwillinger
No update on this either. To be honest, I do not expect these to be corrected anytime soon.

Quote:It was meant in jest, and I would hope that's how it was taken. Though I will admit, it was a pretty obvious, and therefore lazy, joke.Originally Posted by Dark_Respite
Dude, the last time I made the mistake of asking Matt about that (which I think was at the first HeroCon when he ran the D&D game), the temperature in the room dropped about forty degrees. *I* was oblivious (admittedly because I was fangirling over Sean Michael Fish), but my husband mentioned it to me later and suggested I try not to stick my foot in my mouth like that again.
