wish i could find it on youtube, but in the final chapter of giant robo, they have an archer shoot a volley of arrows that looks like it inspired our rain of arrows move.

no dude, seriously, do, it makes colors sound awesome.

it really is.

first thing i wanted to do when ae came out, but could never get the flow of the mission wto work right, so am waiting for improvements in ae before tackling it, for it to fit my idea you have to beat him up repeatedly, burn down his home(using the mayhem arson effects) and destroy all of his belongings. cant do it yet, but am waiting.

dude, i'm a lifetimer on that other game and i don't get any email from them, what gives? i feel so unloved

oh, no question there, I didnt say they had an ironclad reason to think it, just that it does seem to suggest that the tiers will be going at different times, does it not. now the idea that you must have been in the loyalty program, or any real precondition for entry has been set in stone is completely off the mark, but i could understand where some would get the impression, even if that impression was mistaken. as i said, I am hoping that the waves are primarily functional in nature, where the more organized bug-busters get in first, because they will likely be the most efficient resources to hunt for game affecting bugs and balance issues. and those of us who are simply too lazy to go through the trouble of unsubscribing during slow bits get in later.

and i sadly didnt watch the herocon video, vids load very slowly on my connection, and most of the vids i have seen were kind of long, so sadly there just wasn't a reasonable block of time i could devote to watching all the herocon vids.

ya know man, yesterday i saw a ds game which was basically a pedometer and a walking chart that went for 50 bucks, first party nintendo titles are only 35 bucks...so dont underestimate how many people may actually buy this in reality, i understand the purpose of the preorder goodies, maybe sto went a bit overboard with theirs, but having goodies purchaseable in a pack wouldn't bug me that much.

To be fair, the loyalty program announcement did suggest that there were three tiers for access, first for 60+ers, second for loyalty, and third for preorders. now the definition of tiers is nebulous, but usually tiers are used to denote different levels of quality. This is, as i said, not guaranteed, but it would be a bit like if a collecters edition was undifferentiated from a regular edition, not a lie, but an unusual usage of the word with unfortunate connotations.

i will say that this thread does have some epic dramaticism for something that could easily be resolved by customer service reps, and the fact that the original poster hasn't posted here recently may indicate that situations on the ground may no longer be as they were, and now we are just playing kickball with semantics. I dont care when i get in, though i should "officially" be in the first tier, whatever a tier turns out to be, but i'd prefer testers with proven records precede me, because that's what the beta is about, a test, not a freebee look.

at times, but they have quite famously accepted gift baskets in the past, and at the very least, babs and "some other animator" deserve baskets this year.

well, any system is going to have some scheduling conflicts. the timing was kind of blatant, the first superhero mmo came out in competition, and they were hedgeing their bets to make sure that they retained subscribers through the usual length of time people try new mmos, around 2-3 months(not sure if this stat still stands, warhammer and conan pancaked fast, aion seems to be keeping momentum though and champs, no numbers released but the pop seems steady when i play). as you said, your funds were tight, it happens, particularly now, and is perfectly understandable, but if they picked any timeframe that could happen, and this timeframe was seemingly picked for a very specific reason. there is no reason to be ticked with them, life simply happened, and no matter when they had tried it, life could have happened with the same discourtesy, its not their fault.

besides, noting your join date, do you have 60 months yet? that was the first tier, so the whole loyalty thing is superfluous to them other than the badge, which looks cool but is purely cosmetic.

i have seen people use these proxies for ip blocked asian mmos. do your research, there have been cases of some pretty massive security breeches caused by them.

ditto as well, i'm thinking mind/psi, as a concept i was going to make red, but i have some concepts.

come on, make a golden girl nightwidow hero

I myself plan on making a nightwidow go good.

very good time actually, I know that i'm having a tough time getting caught up myself, and with the winter event coming soon...i will have stuff to do, i'd just wish that maybe a few more crumbs had shaken out since october.

/goes to get a video camera and a kiddie pool filled with jello.

i'm just going to be quiet as smirk as to whether those two are intimately related.
