i16 is out even with a bugged droprate? WTF isn't that a top priority thing?
Well, it was my understanding that it looks to be bugged.
As it stands, we know (95% certainty iirc the sample pool) that the drop rate is lower with the settings for 6 people and 1 person on the map than they were having 5 fillers off the map. When questioned about this, Synapse stated that the drop rates shouldn't have changed. Now, this doesn't mean that it was a known issue and they may still be datamining to verify that this is indeed the case.

Don't forget it IS a weekday, a large chunk of players are either at work, or in school. Happy i16 folks, I'm loving it. |
but im hoping that the purple drops will increase in the market because of increased TF'ing and mish farming, and dropping down their prices - like they used to be. But who knows - the CoH market sometimes is more mysterious and rigged than the NYSE....

As a somewhat casual player I still care about what drops in my missions... but what everyone else is complaining about (lowered drop levels, crappy drops, etc.) is what I have always thought of as Normal. I've never gotten good drops; I'll get crappy training io's and the two people to either side will be going on about the purp they just got.

Have you been looking at my characters?
No, he's just channeling your own lousy drops

I totally agree but the drop rates being borked up shouldn't constitute a delay in I16's launch. Having said that, the Devs better get the problem resolved sooner than later.|

As I've said before, I've been screwed on drops since day one, so I don't notice much of difference. But, then again I stopped holding my breath for good drops over 9 months ago. |

The only compensation for my horrible drops has been my GREAT luck in the Random Rolls at the Merit station.

It's new, different and not within the bounds of the existing lol content.
Moar "master badges" and other recycled content for the masses.
I'm not following.... Cobalt, are you saying you're glad A.E. is dying? (which it isn't)

I would assume he is saying he is glad the farming/pl'n part of AE is dieing. People using it as it was intended will of course continue to do so.

It was on Heroes.
I was deleting a Hero, and was going to give the cash away to anyone's lowbie, when it was suggested I hold a costume contest.
And, all of those get the same generic black tights motif until it is done and tricked out.
