Library Pass

So I understand that we can't TP directly to Cimerora,.. how about a library pass (a teleportation power that allows you to choose which university to go to "steel" "founders falls" "croatoa" and "Cap" (villains)) so we can get to the doorstep of the University that alone would be a shorter distance for us to get to Midnighters club >> Cimerora since all the Midniters club's are in front of a university in every zone

Also for people without SG's (some do not want to be one) they can have a way to get to a place with Invention worktables and not have to travel cross country for it.

Just a thought.

don't you mean Cimerora?

You can get a direct TP to Ourobous at 25

Don't overlook the invention tables in the Vanguard base. Also, there are abandoned labs in Port Oakes and St. Martial if you need a place to quickly go to craft.

As for quicker access to the Universities? Well, it really is not all that far a run from the Yellow Line to the Steel Canyon branch. And likewise, the one in Croatoa is pretty easy to get to as well. And if you need to get to the Green Line real fast from a low level zone, and do not want to work your way through Steel, the Founders Falls exit from the Vanguard Base is right across the street from the train station.

There's also the crafting stations scattered around the low level areas on the Villain Side.

Now, I am about to deliberately step on a few toes.

I think travel in the game is too easy. With all of the teleporter powers available, the temporary jetpacks and jumppacks, the exp readjust from 1 to 20, the adjustment of Task Forces to use 5+ TF level cap, and the new ninja run power in the booster pack, I say it's actually too easy to get around. (indenting because I'm talking about a different game to explain why)

I'm reminded a lot of Planetside. I've fussed / ranted / talked / insert your own verb here about the game before. It started out as a Military Simulation where players actually had to trek across entire continents. You had to take a vehicle because if you walked, you could literally be an hour or more... just walking. For a lot of the original players the appeal of the game was in the management of the army. The whole aspect of managing troop transports, army columns, supply runs, and so on.

However, the developers started to chase after the session based gameplay of Unreal Tournament or Quake, modifying the game so that you didn't have to trek across continents to get to a fight or join a fight. Where the management of armor columns really, wasn't important. Where re-supplying a base was just a simple in-cont run, and not a mad dash from one base on another continent over.

The loss of the travel, the loss of the vehicle travel aspect, saw a large percentage of the game population leave. While SOE was able to replenish some of the pop by bringing in players who liked Session based gameplay, the change to travel was one of the (admittedly many) events veteran Planetside players can point at when asked as to where SOE Lost It.

For the love of pete, Cimerora is accessible through Midnighter clubs... There are two Midnighter clubs within a couple hundred yards of a Wentworths and a Black Market. Use your damn market teleporters if you're that lazy. We don't need a friggen 'library pass'.

IMO we have TOO MANY shortcuts in the game as it is >.>

Go to Ouroboros.

For heroes below 50 (well, above 29, but that shouldn't matter when you're going to Cimerora, which is 35+), start Mercedes Sheldon's arc. Teleport to Contact. BING! There you are in the Midnighter Club! Just quit the team once you arrive, and head on through that Pillar of Ice and Flame!

Villains have to wait until 39 in order to Flashback her arc, because the devs hate villains. But once over 39, you can do the same thing!

For Heroes and Villains at level 50, start Daedalus' or Sister Airlia's Arc and the Teleport to Contact! BING! Directly in Cimrora. Quit team.

Ta da!

If you know which contacts are where, and have access to them, this can actually be used to get to a specific part of a zone too. I like starting To Save a Thousand Worlds so I can get directly to Portal Court instead of exiting to Peregrine and traveling there

Hum... Not that sure about a Libray Pass but I certainly would like some way to get to Cimerora through teleport. I´ve been trying too get Daedalus arc for that.
I don´t mind the walk, actually I could really "Walk" (toggle power) all the distance there. What bothers me are the loading screens. Whoever have played with me on Justice might now how I HATE loading screens... It takes forever from one loading screen to another. Most of the times I try logging the first time I won´t be able because game freezes on loading screen and then I´m back to password...
My computer is not that modern or powerful, and I couldn´t even figure out what I have to update so the game works better, so until I get a completely new comp (what won´t help any time soon) I´m stuck to the game as it is...

So, well, I would appreciate a TP to Cimerora... That would turn at least 4 loading screens into just one. But that´s me...

Well, I´m not crying and whining but whatever...

Thanks for the tips.

I normally get out my mobile, reverse the polartiy so I can call through time to Marcus (? the repeatable mission guy) in Cimerora, grab a timed one and use mission teleporter to get to Cimerora in a single load screen
