Quote:This seems a remarkable thing to suppose given that base PvP was turned off in i13 and at the same time bases were made much cheaper, enabling many more people to make serious use of them.
I daresay the original concept for bases was partly oriented around PvP, but things change.
they turned off PVP for i13 because they couldn't get it working. They remade a bunch of items in the base editor destructible specifically for i13 and pvp raiding. The Devs could never get it to work and that is why the base raids got shut off along with the collision detector. -
Unfortunately the way it seems to me is the dev's see bases as only a thing to add to the pvp aspect of the game. I hope I am wrong, but I fear I am not. I think the dev's were hoping initially that the bases were going to be the way they were going to do any sort of large scale pvp raiding. The social aspect of a base seemed secondary.
I love to tinker on my base ever since i13 opened up the new building avenues we currently enjoy. And I hope the dev's can see from the various other posts on the base forums that there is room to expand bases in this direction and not just for pvp. But I fear, along with a few others, that this will call for a total revamp of the base architecture and may be too large for such a small part of the community for the dev's to worry about. -
Another thing I'd really like to see but I really doubt it will happen. The ability to move some of the game UI windows off the players view screen and allow us to place them on the desktop or another screen we can have opened on another monitor.
I used to play the game with two monitors, but hated the split in the middle of the screen. This allowed for more immersion for me and even tried a triple monitor setup for a while, and while that helped with the split by moving it to either side I'd like the ability to move the helpful elements off the screen but still allow the monitoring of these windows without having to toggle them on and off.
I'd move this to suggestions forms, but I really don't think that it would happen. -

Quote:heh. Its more like the starving guy outside the cafe. No matter how much we say were starving, They don't seem to hear us from behind the glass windows.In a lot of ways I see the base situation like a starving man and a master chef. The chef is like, "I already have other orders but if you wait a while I'll fix you a seven course meal". The starving man feels that, "That's great and all but I've been hungry for a while. Can't I just get a sandwich?" While base builders understand that larger changes will take a while, it gets frustrating that they can't get boring grey Arachnos box #5 added to the list of objects in the meantime or other "easy" additions of things that already exist in the game. Further more, it seems like their place in line is being skipped constantly.
If I recall correctly, the last time we even heard of anything new for the bases was when builder from this form started threadjacking pvp threads to get some attention. Lately it seems as if the dev's want the bases to just go away or only be thought of as a part of the raiding system for pvp. I just wish that bases were more of a priority to the devs than it currently seem that it is.
I understand that the devs are working on GR and don't have much time to worry about such a small section of the game, but dammit! This is a part of many in the game that I actually enjoy and would like to see it get a little dev love in one way or the other. -
I know that I will have to try it out. I just don't know when that'll be. I want to wait a bit to see what the response is from others , but from what I see it looks like a good game.

All the binds I ever had a problem with were set in game and I am pretty sure that I had not clicked the apply button not that I really think that should mean anything . I can try that and see what goes on....
Okay. I have tried setting a few binds and could not get it to drop my binds. I zoned several times and all I got to happen was to crash my computerI then also used /unloadgfx to see if my binds would drop and still got nothing. Again I did just upgrade to snow leopard so any testing my be skewed. I did wish that I could be repeated. so we could figure this out
-
actually I have had this happen periodically happen to me as well. I play on both a mac and windows computer. the only time it happens is on the mac. The mac is a Macbook pro with leopard. I just updated to snow leopard today and have recently added a g-13 logitech game pad so I haven't tried it since but I have reset my binds to the standard coh set with a few exceptions so I don't really know if I'll ever have it happen again. If it does I'll bug it but I was doing was to make sure that I applied the settings before I shut the options tab. I don't really know if it helped because this happened so rarely, but I felt that it did.

But do they have Pirate Swagger?
I know they have Pirate Costume Pieces... but they don't have the ones I listed.
This is a Booster Pack Suggestion not just for adding costume pieces. -
So Sitting here talking to my kids today. I was thinking about the new Ninja Booster in the Martial Arts Booster Pack. We got to talking about the Ninja Vs. Pirates craze from a few years ago and discovered that City of Heroes is Ninja biased.
Me and my girls believe that you should in turn add a Pirates Booster that incorporates:
---Costume Pieces---
-Parrot as shoulder costume piece
-Large Square Belt Buckles
-Jack Sparrow Dreads
-Large Puffy Pantaloons
---Weapons---
-Rapier
-Musket ball Pistol
---Emotes---
--Costume Change emotes
-Bomb Explosion
-Sea Sick
--Character emotes
-Tankard (pull out tankard of ale and start drinking it)
-Pull out Musket and wave it around
-count bouty(pirate chest pops open and start counting money)
---Pirate swagger as a travel power---
We just wanted to wanted to Right the wrong and make just out of the UNJUST! -
I actually think that the merging of the base editor and MA editor wouldn't be a bad thing at all. MA was hugely popular. And if you state there is an update to this that, not only allows you to customize your maps, but also allows to revamp your SG base and use it as a map as well I think would be huge. Along with the fact that it brings bases over from something that is marginally in the game ,like pvp is and attaches it with something that the dev's aren't gonna let fade away.
Along with this I then can see the ability to one day allow npc's to be roaming the bases and interacting with custom written dialog, and maybe one day see destructible items for those destroy your enemy's base missions. But those are just hopes of things to come that would be made easier IMO if the base editor was merged with MA.
Maybe I am just thinking wrong though -
I actually think that there are a few good Ideas here to help increase the Ability to defeat the flier. I know that while playing my Corrupter I didn't get many options to get the badge that I wanted, and I still don't have any Villains that have actually defeated the flier.
But being that ATM I am mostly a blue-side player I guess my opinion doesn't count here.
Be careful how you post, you just might tick off people that would have actually agreed with you otherwise. -
mmmm..... Can't a few people from the SG that have the vet buff pet and another with a healer do this for the SG? Just plop the people in the SG (it dosen't have to be in the SG,but thats where we did it) with there buff pet out, and heal the buff pets. The buff pets, when healed get a large amount of healing and it counts towards the SG healing badge as long as the healer is in SG mode. AT least this trick did work 7 or 8 months ago when me and a friend got the badges for our hero/villan groups
-
Yes. It has happened to me and 2 of my friends Bill. We were all playing villians and it took several hours to get just one to drop. This was over six months ago and there were others in zone at the time but I am not sure if any were blueside. I havent tried to get any PVP enh since.
-
yes you can. I bought my macbook so I can connect with my friends while I am on the road. My main computer is a windows desktop that isn't very portable and I wanted another mac for the fact that there easier to use IMO and quite powerful.
I have had it for 6 months now and haven't regretted the purchase one bit. -
Bacon is a pretty good actor and has been in quite a few good films and many more films that will not hit my movie shelf. But all in all, he is a decent actor.

Id suggest that you try PvP in game and decide for yourself. I will also suggest that you find a busy server to have the best oppertunity to really try PvP.
-
Sounds like there is another power in queue like an attack power with no target or some other power that needs a target like the vet pet power. If there is no other power waiting for a target then Id say there is problem.

Try running toggles on an */invuln scrapper, especially a higher-lvl one. Your tune will change. I've shelved mine for this very reason.

What do you consider higher level? My level 32 MA/INVUN scrapper does just fine. Granted I cannot fight mobs like I used to. I have to actually think about jumping into a group. But to me that is just fine. I actually like a challenge to my games
