Is it too much to ask, that you EXTEND the time you keep this in closed beta (and also open beta) so that the bugs that get trapped get addressed before it goes Live?

cos there was a LOT of stuff in I14 that got flagged by the testers and yet the issue was rushed to market; then we had a devs-vs-players meltdown that lasted for well over two months and scared off a LOT of people, all because of MA exploits getting press / blog / game reviewer coverage.

You folks cannot afford to do that again, so soon after. So please, keep the emphasis on TESTING and not "check out the new shiny early".

[/ QUOTE ]I get what your saying but I dont see many exploits coming from powers being recolored or from powersets getting ported so I dont think we will have anything remotely close to that unless for some reason we get new content thats a TF/SF or something.

Proliferation could have issues with decimal errors, table look-ups, incorrect values in general.

We could have some issues leveling up.

Who knows what specter may raise it's head as the ghost in the machine.

Colours being reset back to their defaults at X level.

Using a temp power cossie change [like the arachnos one in faultline] takes all colours/animations back to normal.

Certain colours on certain powersets cost X amount more influence to change than other colours.

Some colours dont show at all.

I remember in i14 closed beta that when i leveled a new character it let you slot inspirations with enhancements. They soon fixed that bug

QR:

Will there be an EU closed beta as well? Like there was for i14? Pretty please?

Love the second picture where someone is saying "we can do another mission".

Obviously doesnt appreciate the value of a true challenge!!! Ah the scrapper in me is calling out for that mission now!

Go to ouroboros. Set the no temp powers restriction. Use that as a guide to whether or not its classed as a temp

Yeh i count vets as temp powers

Well i joined the game just before issue 6 came out so dont have as much experience of the early days as some people here but i got a few stories!

Influence wasnt even a factor back in the day. SO's are so cheap you'ld need a few million and you'ld have a decked out character. Nowadays for the same price you'ld be lucky to be able to afford a single level 50 IO.

A trap that i personally have fallen into is that i now care about the stats/figures of my characters and not the "sod tactics! Lets roll in!". I remember one of my first characters was a FF defender and i used to think with PFF up NOTHING could hit me . . . . . . i was proved wrong very quickly!

The amount of powers you all get to chose from now is immense! With issue 16 that list will increase again [with at least another 2 in GR], a whole variety of options.

The mid level grind. A lot of people will remember the 30 - 40 grind that was brickstown. You ran out of content so quick then that you was forced to street hunt just to reach a new contact. No radio missions, no MA missions, no RWZ, no cimerora, no ouroboros . . . . . . back then you actually ran OUT of content. These days you have to pick which content/arcs you want to leave out

Invention system + the market: Has kept the game interesting and added a mini sidegame of sorts to it. Best feature added so far.

The hollows gulch run . . . . . . . remember those missions that appeared at the VERY BOTTOM of the hollows and the only way there was to run through the gulch? Yeah we had to do this before the temp travel powers . . . and before we even knew what those flaming rocks were! Oh they look harmless . . . RUN OMG RUN!!! JIMMMYYY NOOOOOO!!!! That truely defined the noobs from the umm lucky ones. Could easily spend an entire hour waiting for the team to make it across.

Ah. Also notice due to DR that overall my pve 45%ish goes to 17% - also prob about the same time. Been a while since ive been in a pvp zone obviously. Thanks for the reply without "Cry moar!" i was expecting.



[/ QUOTE ]

17%? That an actual figure because even with DR that seems VERY drastic. Somewhere around the 30% mark it should be at a minimum if your pve is that high.

They gave me fire melee . . . . . and im still happy and using it

Now elec melee? Oh im just giddy with joy!!! Can keep your pom poms while im buring the bad guys

Yeah i know, i was in beta for it when all the maps was available

Still though, an outdoor map like atlas SHOULD have floor collectables as an option. No real reason why it doesnt.

Please make the atlas park maps able to have "collectable objectives" on them!!! I have finally found a way to have a ceremony for your character but the only map of atlas i can do this is the ruined atlas map and thats not very "congrats!!!".

Glowie in the middle with allied non combatives surrounding it all clapping/cheering for you [Woo thanks for saving the day $name ! etc], with even more non combative npcs allies scattered around cheering you on. One or two signature allies though.

Collect your "reward" for saving the day and then suddenly an ambush of X enemy! All out fight in atlas with you again saving the day!!

Please let my dream come alive of having a mission that is rewarding and celebrating our heroes for their hardwork!

Just like to say . . . . i HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE maps full of AVs

Though it isnt hard to make a single 1 on 1 fight test mission. Pick a tiny warehouse map which is basically a corridor with the AV at the back and bingo. Its you v him and possible 2/3 minions. Great for test or trial runs against custom mobs

It acts as a debuff on the enemy too so yes it will drop.

Anything that affects an enemy player/npc will be dropped when hit with a status effect.

Currently my fire/da scrapper is level 22 but levellin fast [yes i know lol DA but i like it] and want to have the second build built for sirens pvp.
Any builds/hints or tips for my character? Bit unsure what powers/set bonuses i should be going for at that level since iv only really aimed for level 50 builds before. Guessing resistance isnt as usefull at this level as say at level 50 but def would be better off?

Also, cloak of darkness . . . . . . worth taking or better off with tactics?

Final fight in drunken master [different language warning]

Even when you cant understand it, its just an awesome fight!! Jackie has full on scrapper lock here

An arc that has you saving the world [in some random way] with the final mission having you go to atlas park for your celebration where the civilians of paragon come to greet their new hero.

Upon standing upon the top of the podium, the final ambush happens and an all out brawl happens. The civilians all scatter [and are untargetable since civilians] while you and a few random hero NPCs try to defeat the villains crashing your party.


^^^^ Would play that nonstop.

• I upped the difficulty to the max and the Atlas Statue just animated and threw the ball at me.

Would so PAY to see that happen Be worth the debt!

[ QUOTE ]
Yeah I've always wished there were some good Warrior arcs in the game. They have a kinda cool background, but no exciting stories. They are just sort of a forgotten group, more or less.

Have you even played the midnighters arc with them in? That final mission in their arc is . . . . . . . . . . ambushy with a flavour of carnage

3) Directed specifically at "Teh Sexy Jay" Super long gloves that go almost all the way up the arm...
Like this -> PLEASE!


[/ QUOTE ]

Why does that woman have 3 arms?

Been that was for ummm 2 plus years i think?

Players decided it was more of a launch pad than anything since theres one building over on villains too. Will it ever get finished? Only the devs know

FF generator!!!!

Poison trap!!!!

Two of my most favourite powers ingame now heroside!!!!

I sometimes don't understand why people solo on a MMO like this game. I have done it and hated it. Soloing is boring for me..much more fun w/ a team even if the team sucks.

[/ QUOTE ] Just a matter of personal preference. I solo about 95% of the time. For me it's about setting my own pace and doing exactly what I want, when I want without having to take other people into consideration. Also, I get annoyed when you have one or more teammates on the team that insist over and over that we need to get a healer, or a kin, or a tank. So instead of getting myself in trouble by telling those people what I think, I take my toys and play by myself. I also find it is easier to challenge myself when I play solo.

[/ QUOTE ]

Same here, most of the time i tend to solo so i can do other stuff at the same time. Whether its just watch a dvd or talk on the phone, i know i can take my time [obviously i'll team now and then also though].

Now i want to create a MA mission of the exploding zombies built for a team of 8. Want a challenge, do that

But yeah in all seriousness, great addition!!!! Can see this issue needing a LOT of beta testing before live though

[ QUOTE ]
And "Other features to be announced" makes me happy. LIKE WE NEED ANY OTHER ONES!!

[/ QUOTE ]

Always say yes to more features
