I don't have any pent-up rage about anything - certainly not a computer game
The game doesn't take itself too seriously, and neither should the players - it's just entertainment
And it's better to look for positives rather than negatives anyway - in RL and in-game

[/ QUOTE ]

A pathetic effort. Get in touch with your inner female dog!

Where the F*** is the animated hair? Where!? It's another day at NCSoft, what shall we do? I know! LET'S NOT BOTHER WITH THE F***ING ANIMATED HAIR AGAIN! We've already actually put some in the game, but screw the players, it's just for our piece of blatant 'edgy' and 'dark' fanservice that keeps the young freaks coming in! It's even better that we didn't bother doing that properly as well, since she doesn't show any skin or cleavage and is an untouchable ghost. Oh yes, our piece of female fluff that gets all the advertisement face time isn't even as alluring as SQUIRREL GIRL! At least SHE can make jokes about NUTS!

GIVE ME MY DAMN ANIMATED HAIR!

Mostly. Your objection, in this case the lack of animated hair, is more of a skeletal framework upon which to build a vast fortress of vitriol and hate. Through judicious use of lunatic tangents, brutal similes and horrific excalamations of violent retribution you will cover many subjects with only a loose connection to each other and the main topic, but ultimately support it.

Well, if you're going to get angry about something, wouldn't making it clear what you were angry about make it more likely that someone might help you?

Not really... because some Forumites aren't looking for anything logical, like that. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some Forumites just want to watch the thread burn.

Ghost Falcon looks like he cobbled together his costume from Ikea offcuts!, all that yellow and angled cardboard-esque pointyness going on! - I hope he kept the receipt from Icon!.

[/ QUOTE ]
So true. The first time I ever saw Ghost Falcon I thought to myself "now there's a guy who hit random on the costume editor."

5) Outbreak. Surely no-one (except very new ppl) use this facility anymore, except for getting the Isolator badge. Either change the no. of foes to 20 or 50 to speed this up, or get rid of it completely.

[/ QUOTE ]

Erm, so what are the new players supposed to do then?

Not to mention that it would cheapen the badge for those who got it already.

And I actually use it whenever I start a new hero; it really isn't that big of a issue for me.

Pfft, that's your choice

The timer between the waves isn't down to the team, and it's the main bit that puts me off

If they removed Outbreak, there'd still need to be a tutorial area - new players shouldn't have to rely on the Help channel to learn about the game.

Hero respec is too easy now... in the old days it was too hard especially for those who actually needed the respec. My first scrapper a very poorly built Dark/Dark scrapper did it an estimated 30 times and failed each time. Now it is a little easy.

1)The great Paragon Marathon - I totally agree on that one. Even after you got the travel powers you have some of these. I don't mind going to another zone but some of them are really boring. Like patroling Talos for Freakz activities, clicking the phones. sighs.

2)The Shadow Shard. Oh yes. I thought it looked cool the first time I came there. Then I tried travelling. Oh no. And then I saw the mobs... of something mixed up between Doom and Hollywood aliens. If I had to look at those mobs forever I would rather be blind.

3) Lack of postal system. I'd like to be able to send gold or recipies or whatever to my other toons or other players toons without seeing them. Choose the items, fill in the name, send. Simple as that. I would also like to not having to go to the contacts to buy inspirations. :P

1) The damn endurance slog till you hit stamina. How can running out of endurance every few minutes be fun?

2)The cut and paste missions.

3) TFs because of the way they're constructed I can rarely, if ever, join one. Generally i can only play an hour or two at a time and Ide leave a hole in the team.

4) The way the devs have completely disregarded SGs.

5.. I'll stop there.

Presumably because you know how to handle it nowadays.

Borked builds should set the baseline of a respec difficulty, IMO. Not those who already know how to handle the things.

And people say WoW is fun.

All powers could start off at level one costing say, 5% of their eventual total endurance cost, with 5% being added every level until 20 when they're full price.

Problem solved, I'm a genius.
