They already have in a way.
Subjectively, the redside arcs are far more enjoyable (for me personally at least).
The redside 20-40 SF rewards much better than the blue side one, especially when they show up as the WST. -
Or, I'm going to bring whatever I want to a team.
And if I'm asked to sit one out, I'll just add a note about the ignorance about the team leader and form my own group. -
Quote:It was beyond objectionable. It was on the same level as Decker's awful voice over while Batty was dying. Even small children (I know because I subjected them to it) understood what was going through Vader's mind.And Vader saying "Noooo," was objectionable, but Luke screaming like a little girl as he plunged down the reactor shaft in TESB was OK?
I thought the Luke scream was only in the Special Edition release and removed in subsequent releases?
For reference, I'm using: Theatrical release (77-83) -> Special Edition (97) -> DVD release (04) -> Blu-ray Release (11)
As for the prequel trilogy and general botch-ery, it could be worse. One draft of Revenge had Palpatine reveal to Anakin that he created him via Midi-chlorians, thus was his true father.
Other side note, I don't know if I'm going to Star Wars Weekends this year at Disney World. I've been the last three years (09 was my first time to it, 10 for the 30th anniversary of Empire, and 11 for the relaunching of Star Tours). With only the re-release of the Phantom Menace supporting it, I may wait until next year for the 30th anniversary of Jedi.
Or probably go for both. I'm weak like that. -
Rather than make a brand new topic, I'll just piggy back.
On the blueside arc, prior to the fight with Mako and the Arachnos B-squad, I was able to use my destiny power (barrier total radial invocation) to buff the heroes and Mako and his goons.
I'm not sure if the game treats them as hero NPCs prior to engagement, but it was quite surprising to see them actually act me after receiving the buff. -
Quote:So does that mean I22 will be out before the next issue of WWD?
We didn't do this for Issue 22 because the story arc will still be in the midst of being released when that is launched, and we want the game to reflect the state at the end of the story, not the point five-sevenths of the way in. -
I'm not entirely this story can be told, due to the circumstances surrounding it. Moderators, please feel free remove to it.
Once upon a time, we were testing another version of the game. A powerset was leaked (Beam rifle).
When it was discovered (like the Beast Mastery - someone created a blaster AT and noticed a new set), the forums went crazy. A redname jumped in and asked how we knew about said power set since it wasn't supposed to be in the build..
Our response was "Uh, it's currently in the game"
To which the response from the redname was "oh. That's not supposed to be there. Enjoy" -
I think RadPanda came from a discussion we were having with a friend over the disappointing (To me, at least) Red Panda exhibit at a near by zoo. Next thing I know, there's this Red Panda-ish hero standing next to me in Atlas.
As for the eagle character, I can't really remember.
Despite being about 3 feet from her while she was working on it, this really surprised me how quickly it was done. Cami originally intended to do five busts per day. There were often times I was either sick or at work and she would have about 8 or 9 done in a single day. And had shaded the previous ones. And made me a PB&J sandwich when I asked for it.
Then the bio work was made exceedingly difficult because a few of her characters are counter-point to my characters and I was lazy about writing down my own biographies. -
-
They do send out emails fairly regularly to inactive accounts when there is something to announce.
I came back after a multi year hiatus because 1) Free activation weekend and 2) more details about Going Rogue were coming forth. -
First pack (of the two) is the Pocket D Pack.
Second pack is Imperial Dynasty -

so did we ever get word if the Celestial Armor Pieces were going to be available for purchase outside of the Tier 9 VIP window? I can only recall a vague, wishy-washy "We're looking into it" response, but I'm probably forgetting something
Or, can we get a rough idea of how long the "limited time" till it disappear actually is? or of when it is going to be rotated back in? -
Quote:It was that Jeffrey Kaztenberg really pushing "adult themes" in the animated features at that time. It paid off well here (Compared to when he wanted Pixar to turn Woody from an insecure character to a jerk).Going off topic and letting my fanboi flag fly, but IMO Roger Rabbit is an adult movie with asides for kids, almost the reverse of a typical Disney animated picture, like, say Aladdin.
I'm still surprised Disney never brought it back under the Disney brand, but rather chose to keep it Touchstone after all these years. Especially since, for a while, it was promoted so heavily with Toon Town at Disneyland.
And not to mention, it features one of the greatest slang words known to man - cack.
As in "Marvin Acme. The rabbit cacked him last night" -
Some of the CoL pieces were leaked onto the market Monday Evening (7 of the pieces, the masks and the head details - ranging from 20-40 points).
The Titan Weapon pack and individual weapons as well (Though, the pack showed up as 0 and the weapons themselves were priced appropriately)
Hopefully it means some alteration is being done to the pack. -
I'm a little disappointed someone from Paragon Studios isn't making me pancakes and bacon for breakfast while they inform me about the game.
I have to use "their" plentiful, easily accessible tools to find out information, which is totally unfair. I'm a VIP! -
With Freedom, there had been tweaks made to the zone capacities. In what way, I'm not entirely sure. I just know there were adjustments made and said adjustments are why there are, say, two instances of AP constantly.
Maybe with the excess pets, (Lore, MM, Temp so forth), the zone can't handle us anymore. Though, it'd be a shame for a cap to have put on a fairly unused zone.
I actually survived through the first round of disconnects. It wasn't until we made the first attempt (the charge at Hami portion) that I disconnected, after everyone started coming back. -
No.
The brand isn't strong enough to support a sequel. -
For sales to be impacted by the rocket board, there would have to be a larger demand for any vanity travel power versus the demand for the specific one.
I don't have the marketing research for Paragon Studios, but I'd imagine the threshold for the rocket board has already peaked. The market for people that just gotta have a vanity travel power, regardless of what one, is small (assumption on my part).
It was a fun niche product when it first arrived. I think I've used mine twice since I bought it many moons ago.
But the idea of treating the rocket board as the base power and purchasing new "skins" is an interesting one. Would people be more accepting if they had to pay an additional $1-2 for a new skin for the existing power? Or would there be cries of money grubbing for not including these skins with the initial rocket board release?
Based on consumer feedback in other markets (Say, downloadable content for console games), there doesn't seem to be an accepted window of "Well, you waited just long enough to have not been working on this during the initial production" to "Well, I've moved onto the new game. Not interested"
This is, of course, ignoring the actual work that went into producing the magic carpet and assuming it is just a simple reskin. Though, the group fly aura is a nice idea. -
Update for January 3rd looks to be sales on the rocket board and mission teleporter.
And the magic carpet is now added. -
Quote:I had to double take this myself when I saw the list.In fact, other than the ITF January is a straight-up repeat of the weeks of November 29th through December 20th. The only difference is the respec trial is a different level bracket. Weird.
With the DA revamp coming, I think I'll take the slower path just for a change of pace. -
Never announced as a change, but I assume it was the way to correct the other bug regarding completion and the badge.

Better price than I anticipated, picked them up for all the accounts the morning.
