There was a time we could do Devouring Earth GM's. Had a mission way back with a map full of Recluse AV's and 5 ally Boulders you could rescue. How many Recluses does it take to kill a GM?? At least 10...

I'm laughing as much at the Devs for sticking us with a crap TF as I am at your cavalier attitude about beating it.

Using 50's and skipping to the end of the non-defeat alls does make it fast.

Is Issue 18 coming before Going Rogue? I thought they hired all these new peeps so we could have new issues every 3 months or so. ? edit: Would rather have new task forces... could care less about updating old ones. Happy some of you are getting animated tails, I have no interest. 8 missions is weak IMO, for a content update. When they said content update, I was thinking like 5 or 10 levels of content. I hope this gets alot better, new zones with all new content. We desperatly need a new issues like this one: Forest of Dread |

Seriously. Take a break from the game. Log off and don't come back until GR releases, if you're that bored of it. Then, if you come back and it's still 'boring'...well, maybe your playing the wrong game? Has it never occured that maybe other people don't necessarily have to have the exact same opinion as you?

Take a break, play something else, I generally go for single player stuff myself, and come back when you've got that urge again to play.

I mean, our devs aren't androids that don't need sleep. They are human. New content takes time to make. Time to make sure it works like its supposed to. Time to test. I'm fairly certain they don't purposely not give us new content. (Depends on what your view of content is.)

Like all of you, I am allowed to express my feelings on whatever thread I wonder into.
I was expecting more from Issue 17 because we havent gotten a really Great issue in a long freakin time.
edit: You keep saying take a break. I HAVE been on break from doing anything in this game for over a year. Waiting for new dev created content... waiting and waiting for something new to do, a new path to 50... been waiting and waiting, happily buying all their little packs on multiple accounts, "Supporting the game"...

That should take over a year and a half, so I am not really worried. UNLESS they dont put alot of actual content in GR. Then it wont be a problem for just me, but alot of other people as well. |

GR has end game. I know people in other games that have been happily playing their end game for years. I expect the same atleast from this game, if not better.

I personally love dev content (long as its not hero side and low level *shudder*) but its not the meat of the game for me. I get a lot out of RP and doing my own stories, AE was a gigantic boost for me for that.
Its just perspective, all of us want something different from the game.
Not sure if you RP but you could look at getting into a story driven SG that does solid AE arcs and in game stories/writing. That might sate some of the content urge for moar new stuff. Not canon but it can be fun.

Actually, the original design intent of TFs was that they were supposed to be a multi-session affair done by friends or supergroup mates over the course of several play sessions. That's why Posi and the shard TFs are so long.|

With the introduction of Croatoa, that design philosophy fell by the wayside and all the CoV SFs were much shorter (and villains complain about not having hefty SFs that can give big Merit awards).
Players have figured out how to do the legacy TFs in a relatively short time (one play session) by means of stealthing and only doing the minimum required for each mission. Doing it exemplared with your +5 powers and having SSK bring everyone up to the level cap of the TF has also helped tremendously in speeding up the legacy TFs (in which multiple team wipes were the norm!).

I'm extremely excited for I17! It's much better than I thought. I won't be able to use Ultra Mode, but it looks like there's plenty of other stuff in this Issue to play with.
I can't wait to try out the new story arcs. 4 new arcs sounds like a good ammount of new content to keep me occupied until Going Rogue. I'm interested to see the changes in the Positron TF and I'm looking forward to finally doing the Silver Mantis TF.
I'm also intrigued by the idea of crafting temp powers. That might give me a reason to craft.
And yay for new Architect stuff!
All in all, it sounds like a fantastic issue.

Honestly, I interpreted that as that only Influence/Infamy can be mailed, but you can't trade anything between Heroes and Villains, INCLUDING ITEMS, since that's currently the case. In other words, unless confirmed otherwise, I'll assume items were not mentioned as being able to be emailed because they cannot be.
