Going Rogue - must have list

At 50 for TF's you missed
Faathim
Justin Augustine
Sara Moore

Under the new system you also get your full powers on Doc Quaterfield. And lose only your level 49 power on the Freakspec.

just sayin'

Have you read Maelstrom's "full Biography" on the Going Rogue site yet?

He was "Whirlpool", then became "Maelstrom", and has non-"subordinate"/Ally status in relation to Tyrant - a seemingly unique thing in Praetoria.

IDK what that means - if anything so far as the storyline, but it could!

I get your point, but lots of things listed in this thread are redundant. I mention End Game because I'm stressing the importance of it. The population is aging, leveling is on avg faster than ever and there has been a pretty large shift in support for people that don't want to play the reroll game anymore.

What I'd personally like added to the list of meaningful and engaging end game content is world activities. Random disasters, better and much more varied invasions. Where's the arachnos invasion when they overrun Siren's Call, or Recluses Victory that spills out into Steel canyon or where ever?

I can go on and on, but in short most of what I'd like are things that bring life back into the "world" aspect of the game that they have all but killed off entirely. I want to see lots of heroes/villains engaged in something that is bigger than one individual instance such as the STF.

I want a warning to pop up that villains are kicking butt in SC and that arachnos are about to spill out of the zone if you don't do anything about it. When they spill out of the zone I want a bunch of destructible objects and hero npcs fodder to spawn that the arachnos crush. And then I want a warning to pop up saying that if you don't go kick arachnos *** they are going to "do x" that will weaken all heroes. If you fail to act and arachnos wastes SC then all heroes regardless of zone are hit with a minor-ish debuff (like -5% def, some -speed/recovery, etc).

I realize not many would jump on board with such ideas right away as it disturbs the "easy street" set up we have, but I'd like it.




Definitely, I think it is safe to say that 90% of heroes occupy ~5 zones and that the other ~25 you are more likely to encounter a tumble weed than another hero. While they are pretty and neat to visit now and again when so few people get any use out of them all they are is bullet points on a feature list rather than something that actually matters.

I disagree very much. Just like in rl texting them isn't the same as seeing them. But this is just a difference of opinion so meh.

I'm sort of against new zones, yes I'm looking forward to the ones that GR brings, but it is mixed emotions for me. One one hand we have dozens of zones that are little more than empty space. I'd much prefer less quantity and far more quality.

Look at it another way. I'd rather they spend time improving the content we see 97% of our playtime than a Boomtown revamp. What I'm saying is I'd much rather the artists and level creators flex their muscles and work on the instanced maps that exist and will be introduced in GR. I think we are beyond needed reskinned maps and need actual new maps which means overwriting a bunch of existing ones.

They do? Funny, I didn't notice. I have just as much fun playing my level 1s as I do my level 50s, and all the levels in between. I didn't realize I had to have a reason to get to 50 other than I get experience for beating up the bad/good guys and foiling their plots. I must be doing it wrong.

ya well lots of us get bored easy with boring low level content that drags. like i said previously i love this game so but I enjoy a million times more playing with my level 50's that are at the top of their game and truly super then playing some low level that has to rest every other spawn and only an attack or 2 to use.


Your confused alright.

Bravo you just named the worst content in this game that hardly no one ever plays and excatly what should NOT be added in GR. Lets start shall we

Faathim: No phone the whole time and multi zoning equals bad idea and pointless time sink

Justin Augustine: It was ok at first but then the last mission is so foggy way more so then even Dark Astoria it left a really sour taste in my mouth not being able to see 3 feet in front of me

Dr.Quarterfield: /wrists if i ever get myself into a 5 plus hour TF without knowing again

Sara Moore: From the other shard TF experiences no thanks you i learned my lesson so can't really comment on this

Respec Trial: Yay for the exact same 3 trials just with different enemys and waiting times in the lovely reactor room.

Bravo if this is the kind of content that is seen in GR I will leave 100% certain and not for another game just with lack of satisfaction.

You are called TWISTED Toon, y'know...

Well twisted or not ITA with ya. I've never really felt too tied down to one character, and it took me nearly all three years of playing so far to hit my first level 50. Don't feel like any of that time was wasted a bit.

I have to disagree with you here.

"A lot of the players" seems a little sketchy. If you make the game harder at level 50 (i.e. "balance around IO's") you change that to "all the players will have to use IOs".

It's pretty hard to have sympathy for someone that works that hard to make their character powerful and then complains that the game is too easy. Do they not realize it's optional and they decided to do it?

Currently I have options. Some characters I frankly don't invest as much into and just randomly throw enhancements at. SO's still work fine and that's nice. But if I do decide I want to "uber" it up a bit, I have the option to start shopping and crafting to achieve some better capability. It's like a different (and more time consuming) version of the difficulty slider.

And there isn't any set "level" I have to get to either. I can go from SO's to generic IO's and get better performance or start with set IO's for dozens of other combinations. I can start throwing serious money at a character if I want and make it into a mini god (purples and such). It's my option...and I love options. A "harder game at lvl 50" takes away the more casual options.

So which of the levels I just described do we balance around? How many of the options get taken away?

The 'foggy' final mission is Sara Moore not Augustine, so I'll take those as reversed comments.

And I wasn't necessarily saying they were 'good', but if you are listing things that a 50 can do, a comprehensive list is much better than an incomplete one.

Of those litsed I find the respec, Sara Moore and Augustine more fun than the the Khan TF

Faathim is about on a par.

I totally understand where your coming from but we serioosly need more challenges like for example,having to take down the towers before you can take down Lord recluse. There is strategy here and not every tank in the game can handle Recluse even with an emp and there back.

I'm looking for more content like this. There is already enough content in this game that is riduciosly easy.

And yes it is my choice to make my characters more powerful but it's because i love all aspects of this game. To tell you the truth I kinda feel sorry for those that don't use IOs as there a wonderful part of a game and if I didn't use IOs or this game was devoid of them, I woulda left this game before my 3 month vet reward because of shallowness.

IOs make this a deep and rich game in my opinion and what's the point of putting something in your game if not to make it harder, just for the hell of it?

Come on already I'm not talking about making low level content any harder I'm talking about level 50 content harded.

Any ways this is what I need to hold my attention and I have a feeling NCsoft is gonna deliver anyway



PS: when single toon can solo Giant monster because of IOs for christ sakes make this game harder
