I'm thinking the same as MG. You'll probably get the "theme" and the "individual customization" choices just like particle powers.

2 story arcs in Issue 13.

I feel ya, though. The developer content output has been very disappointing.

[/ QUOTE ]

Wasn't 13, 2008 though?

[/ QUOTE ]

And 2 story arcs? Wasnt there [hero side] 3 level 20 - 25s and 2 cimerora ones?

Want coffee?

One quick question for the devs... Epic and Patron sets aren't mentioned. Are any of them customizable?

[/ QUOTE ]

Along with kheldians + power pools.

Hope they're in since i want my white warshade with pink superspeed to happen!

Damn Stalkers got the shaft in proliferation... Wanted Fire Melee so bad.

Head Splitter is the shaft? (assuming they get head splitter)

Assasins head

Am i correct in thinking that with the new difficulty setting, an 8 man team can face even harder enemies? Or will it mostly benefit people NOT in a full team?

Poison traps for heroes! im happy

It's pretty fun to wander over into programmer land and causally ask, "So what's up with the chat bug?"

They have said that not having reliable repro steps makes this particular bug nigh-impossible to track down, so if anyone can figure out a way of making this happen 100% of the time, I'm sure those guys would name children after you or something.

I'd even push for Posi to hand out the vaunted 'badge-which-must-not-be-named"

That sounds like a bet...

Wheres our announcement!

A work around is to /leaveteam when you die. You exit the map, go to hospital, then rejoin the team.

I prefer to fight the jailers myself though.

[/ QUOTE ]

Tried that but the map wouldnt kick us off

Was on a PUG last night/this morning [bah your different time zone is confusing!] in the hollows doing some of the repeatable missions.
Was on a full team and we were quite easily just storming through missions. Then it happened, we came across a CoT mission. After the team wipe in the first mob we all clicked go to hospital since we forgot about their jails

Firstly it was quite good since half the team had NEVER experienced being sent to a jail after defeat and couldnt understand what was going on [though they all thought it was cool which was a good thing]. However after defeating the jail door we each got defeated instantly by the guards outside the door.

After the 5th/6th time of dying and defeating our jail we had now all defeated all the jail doors. The only problem was that everytime we went to hospital we all got instantly ambushed by the guards outside, it was a cruel and twisted non stop tortue scene in which they kill you constantly. The team had zero chance whatsoever.

Now i admit i couldnt stop laughing at this whole thing, for every minion we killed they killed us 10 times each no matter what tactics we used.

So while it was some great random fun i had, please reduce the number of guards at a jail! It just made it impossible to finish and we all had to log off/back in just to reset the mission.

Oh and more jail type missions please!

Nope, i believe its a cruel myth to tease me not getting ANY. I'll believe it when i get one . . . until then . . . your all cruel

I wish. Thus far, all it's done (AFAIK, at least) is drag the ratings down since those Gunmen will pursue the player practially anywhere - something most people aren't used to and can't adapt to, so I get 'impossible not to die, this sux' kind of feedback

[/ QUOTE ]

Gunmen arent exactly the biggest challenge in the game though are they, you could have easily been evil and throw in a few bosses. As it is, a gunmen ambush would be a welcome suprise but something that if you are half decent, should be able to handle.

MA is my challenge mode anyway, push the limits of our characters!

sigh.

People still need prestige to build stuff?

Happy birthday US version of GG.

Wednesday seems like a reasonable day to expect a major news update

Hey there and welcome to the game Glad you are one of the people that do like to chat and team a lot.

In regards to more broadcast chat, people tend to have come to the conclusion that the majority dont like broadcast being used for something that everybody could see. People tend to use it for event notifications/team searching or recruitings/sg related objectives and short "congrats" to people who have just achieved something special.

I like you have recently joined [though i have been in the EU so past experiences] so would be happy to level a new character up on virtue and team with you Main thing though, is that if you have ANY questions, no matter how "noobish" it might seem, just ask and we'll answer them.

So . . . . come across frostfire yet?

*adds blood_spectre to the list*

Got my eye on you mr!!!!

Heh, I did this on one of my arcs as well. In the third mission of "the Revenge of Hro'Dtohz" (1356), the player is dumped into what is essentially a Rikti zone invasion. The contact says to be careful and that if the player gets too much attention from the Big Bad prior to defeating him or her, the Rikti response will be swift and deadly - and it is. If the player defeats all the optional bosses, an ambush of Gunmen will teleport in right on top of the player and attack.

Thats the kind of stuff which gets a high rating and feedback with "i love you".

The only missions i ever remember are ones with things that you dont expect. For example theres a great arc from an EU player [highly rated over here in the EU] where after you rescue the hostage, an ambush of titans comes after you. Now you think you have time before they get to you since they spawn at the start of skyway bride . . . . . but soon as you turn around . . . . those missiles come flying! The range is immense! But for the pure WTF?! moment its always stayed in everybodys mind.

More traps/wtf moments please

If anybody knows any arcs with stuff like that please send me a message!

It was a trap to lure all farmers into one thread and nuke them all.

Either that or they got busted.

Im happy with either.

No wait i prefer the busted.

Could you get busted with a nuke?

Ok now see here i was thinking that scrappers are becoming the least common AT around. Started a team earlier on freedom in hollows and i was the only scrapper in the level range. Found most players are now using either blasters or controllers personally.

So basically the general feeling is that we will and should anyway have poison traps all around atlas?

See, i feel evil just by thinking about making a poor hellion be sick so a level 1 can beat [i mean arrest] him.

I've actually done this. In my VERY light hearted noob vr training mission [just look up @damz], there are mini "traps".

The contact says to just collect certain objectives and then defeat the bosses that spawn from them. Do that and you finish the mission.

However there is also on the map a destructable object [car] which is titled "please dont destroy me". Obviously this would be VERY tempting for any player, but not keeping to your objectives and destroying it results in a hard ambush.

With the glowies i did the following.

Objectives = 3 safes [each one trigger a boss to spawn on the map to be defeated]
Fake glowies = 3 safes [collect all three and a hard ambush spawns once again]

Apart from or two spawning issues iv had VERY positive feedback from the way it works. Obviously though someone with a much better/fluent english language would do much better than me.

Self busted?

Level 30 rikti lf hami team [honestly we just want to trap it!]
