No.

If you want to play casino games while your playing CoH, you can run a seperate program and toggle between the two games.

/signed for some side diversion in game that could be done socially. 1+ people able to participate.

Personally I have myself been a fan of these things in MMO's. (EQ2's lottery goblins + card game). I wont go out and buy stuff to play it...but something minus a charge would be neat.

/signed I've always thought side games would be a nice addition to this game for a distraction.

I wouldn't mind if these were put in, but I think I'd prefer the Dev team to be working on content for the main game.

We've got enough to do in the game. If that doesn't interest you, then play a different game. A browser game. Hell, go on newgrounds if you'd like.

/unsigned. we already have enough people still whinning about not being able to find teams and we don't need anymore. adn i agree that i would rather see the devs working on main content then side games.

He can't. Well he could but he reupped his sub for a year when the MA came out and he's mad because they took away his exploits. He's already complaining about the new Going Rogue edition.

This is just his way of venting his frustration.

Don't you win something for making the first "go play another game" post?


Gotta love it when an idea is posted, and someone who doesn't want it says, "Go play another game".

Ever think maybe people that suggest these things ARE satisfied with the game, but that they enjoy it so much they want to see it expand and grow in new ways?

It doesn't even matter if it would ever get done (which it likely would not)...you should still not begrudge someone for simply making a suggestion.

OP's posting history aside, why would you want to drive a paying player from the game?

And for fear of Mod08, lol, I will not get into this further. OP, don't stop making suggestions because someone is rude.

Only compliant i had was it would need to be whole new game if they was offering game changing content at a price.. If not then would be BS

And secondly no reason i cant play pool are use the slots in PD and St.M while i am waiting on people .. Waiting on people is boring .. would fix that... Not like this is a hard thing to do.. Mini games would be nothing to ad

I actually like the idea of having minigames, but I don't know how they'd work them in properly. I'm a huge sucker for stupid quick flash games online, that's probably why I don't mind the idea that much.

Just answering this question and not implying the OP has done any of the following.

Let's see . . .

The GM's may have discovered the player in question works for an RMT company.

The GM's may have discovered the player in question is an RMT customer.

The GM's may determine that the player in question has knowingly used an exploit in the MA and the severity warrants their account be banned.

The GM's determine the player in question is trying to sublicense, rent, lease, loan or otherwise transfer the Software for profit.

The GM's determine the player in question is making discriminatory remarks which are sexually explicit, harmful, threatening, abusive, defamatory, obscene, hateful, racially or ethnically offensive including excessive obscene or vulgar language.

The GM's determine the player in question is continually violating copyright after disregarding repeated warnings to stop.

And those are just a few reasons why a paying player might be forced to stop playing the game.

And there's no reason why you can't have a second program running and you toggle between both games while you are waiting.

You can even set this game to window mode so you can do both simultaneously.

The end result is you get to amuse yourself while waiting, and the devs get to focus on more important issues. Everybody wins.

im going to ask this then. how would you interact with them?

how would you know that the person or event you were waiting for is there/started?

would it place you in another screen so you can't see anything else?

how would you get the character to perform these functions?

what would be the rewards for doing these side games?

how would they tie into the current game?

these are just some of the questions that must be considered and i'm sure more will pop up.

This could be a big problem. If the games gave rewards the system could be exploited. This is supposed to be a hero/villain game not Bob Barkers Farming for Dollars.

well, by rewards i meant badges so i should have said that instead :

Minigames are always nice, I wouldn't want to see a huge amount of dev time put into it, but if it was easy I'd be completely for it.

I just thought you were remembering the arguments in one of the previous mini game threads where people suggesting gambling with influence/infamy.

actually i completely forgot about that, lol.

Minigames have been suggested before - like making the... think there are/were pinball tables in Pocket D work.

As JUST a little aside, sure.

Throwing INF or other rewards at them... nope. Nothing other than pinball-esque "top 10" lists.

well, the whole idea of me asking brew the questions was to hopefully make him realize how much thought has to be put into an idea before they just say do it.
