I hope they dont release many more. People are going to see this stuff somewhere, and are going to think 'oh that looks cool, I might try it' then when they get the game and get in there, they're going to be dissapointed that they have to fork out even more, just to get something specific they saw.
I would like a couple of boosters but I have no way of paying electronically, so for me, its just more stuff to miss out on.
To be honest I'm curious how you pay for subscription without paying electronically - Timecards? Be nice if NCSoft had a system like time cards for the boosters, which even better would be a way of gifting people with boosters. -
The main reason I havent used capes on toons is after 20 levels I'm kinda used to thier default look. Getting the vet capes at 1st (and to lesser degree the magic and Valkryie) meant I used them more. I suspect a freeze frame shuddering halt to atlas in the first few times after the new ones are released.

Lovely, all for this one and will be getting it. Unlike that emote one.
Hopefully a little cheaper than the super boosters, but I don't think it will be.
And I'm kinda glad there's no power included, as dont feel too many buff bonues should be a pay to get thing. All for other moverment abilities like different animation nnja run, or an assemble the team type power etc, just getting cautious of all the buff stuff. -
Besides knock backs, siphon speed with the Proc for damage.

Actually, they do. Lemmings don't jump the minute they come across the ocean or cliff. They spend hours waiting at the edge, until their urge to live is overcome by their urge to continue migrating.

Quote:My guess is too many people thought they would make inf when the markets merged by buying up lots of special PET IOs when they were blueside cheap, and selling them after merge. Crafted enhancements are easier to store (1 item over 5 salavage + recipe, and can be stored in a SG base).Originally Posted by Willowpaw
I'm rather surprised that the crafted Expedient Reinforcement is selling for less than the uncrafted. That seems rather backward.

Maybe the PEGi rating is trying to account for the online experience, which ESRB doesnt...

IIRC Oro only does arcs that have a badge assoicated with them, and you miss some things like the temp power from Boccor if you do it via Oro. Turning off XP works best.

Quote:Most missions that I solo I tear though scores of minions, and then beat on an end bad guy. Much like in most comics they line up to be fought and dont swamp you.Originally Posted by Raster
In those other games you are not playing a "Superhero" in COX you are. Going 1on1 is expected in most MMO's. but in a superhero MMO, feeling like a superhero I feel should always be important.

Quote:I've found that killing everything helps trigger the last glowie indictator. Skipping a non essestential mob may be why it didnt show. *shrug* at least a few times when i have gone back and defeated everything its then displayed where that last clickie is.Originally Posted by Raster
Yes its great when it happens, but like I said half the maps it does not do that for some reason.
Remember to /bug missions that dont show the last objective indictator too. -
Quote:I faced over 7 of them last night in a single nemenis mission.Originally Posted by Silverado
I've probably encountered like 7 Snipers tops in my 4 years of playing
That makes the 7 sound very low for 4 years unless you activatily avoid nemenis.Quote:Originally Posted by Silverado
Not that common at 50.
Just today I ran a few Nemesis tip missions and one of them had 2 snipers. -

You just make this stuff up as you go along, don't you? You have NO idea what you're talking about. Stop acting as if you're some kind of authority on what the dev's thoughts, policies, desires, statements, etc. are.
In over two years, I've never seen a poster who tries as hard as you to act like they know what they're talking about, and is so consistently wrong with nearly every single thing they say. And, as usual, when you get called out on it in a thread, you'll never show yourself here again, and just wait for some other thread to pop up where you can act like you have a clue what you're talking about... -
Quote:I agree !Originally Posted by Biospark

This is why I love this game, and what will keep me here for a long time. As soon as the game becomes end-game, raid-centric advancement, I may not leave right away, but the writing will be on the wall at that point.
And I worry a bit, Halloween/Banner event & the improved winter event made it look like CoX was getting very mass teamed focus, and were projects of war witch.
Then Cathrdal of Pain, though that one had to be mass team imo given its history.
I'm glad tip/moralty missions are so well solo balanced.
I hope the difference for getting the incarante slot via the special TFs compared with solo isnt as far as the difference between earning power of gaining reward merits in taskforce com vs Story arc. -
Quote:So the issue for you is actually about redside on your server, not ATs.Originally Posted by newchemicals
Everyone is blueside
There is another player who runs on vside so I can duo. Otherwise I have to pug it if I want a team there.
Made my stalker a Rogue since you can actually get mission teams there.
Heck, I am in the process of making most of my villains rogues/heroes. Once I get them to 40+, do the Patron Arc and get the invader badge I wave bye bye to RI forever.
Redside is mostly AE begging in Cap and farming 53s in Grandville. -
Quote:That would make the party pack an exploit.Originally Posted by Mattwo7
I think the fact that the devs have NOT commented on the matter is proof enough it's an exploit. If it wasn't the CR team would already be here coving up the truth. Replacing logic with rage is a BAD idea

You also see prices when you go to add more time etc iirc

It's on my stance list... I'm trying to bind it into a macro... what in the flying hell is the /emote command for it? I can't figure it out for the life of me and google is giving me no help.
http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Category:Emote_Animations is a list of all the emotes and you can click on them to see an animation of it. -
I still hand wave that the floor building plans and thier non linear pathways/levels are due to good planning in case of rikti invasions getting in. Paragon is built for urban defense.

Quote:You seem to keep saying that minimal effects is easy for the devs to do. I'm wondering why you would think that?Originally Posted by Zemblanity
Of course we'd all like our own detailed version of each and every power, spinning flame-eyes and all, but the devs are limited in what they can deliver and thus their priorities might not allow it. Minimal FX, however, doesn't really impose much work on the dev teams and we can then use the best costume designer in the history of video games to make our toon as close to what we want as possible. Check:
- Does Minimal FX Option on elemental armors interfere with other players' ability to enjoy the game? - No
- Does Minimal FX Option on elemental armors create any sort of heavy burden on the Dev teams so as to delay other content they might otherwise deliver? - No
- Does Minimal FX Option on elemental armors go against the Dev teams' creative designs? - This one I don't know, though I can't imagine it being true.
Do you have anything to back up that it wouldnt delay any other content?
I'd rather that time spent of the power pools & APPs. Not against minimal effects, but really doubt its that easy.
Each would need a new animation (x3 for body types), that animation would need to work with every possible power combination for that armour (x3 for body types). Insert the rest of standard code rant. -

Yeah. I hesitate every time making sure I spelled it right and everything.
Even though I seriously doubt anyone else has something even remotely close to @Maestro Mavius. When your sending tens of millions in a single email, caution is key.
