I have a fun past time, It's playing the level 50 characters that I have designed to work with all the IO's and powers that I want, very often they are designed to work perfectly as they are and all holes and gaps in powersets are filled with the set bonuses and such that are effective at that level.|

For example, I want Task Force Commander accolade on my Scrapper, but I refuse to spend hours gimped just to get it...
For me, it's all about being 50, PvP, lvl 50 content and completed IO'ed builds coming together... 1-49 is not an option for me, I don't enjoy it.

You went from saying please to *** in two posts and it went down hill from there. Please mind yore manners.
And to all partys involved the "Ask a Dev" threads really aren't the place for arguing amongst our selves.

My comment was made in jest. If you weren't all the way up there on your horse you would be able to see that. So please don't try to mod the thread yourself, if you have nothing productive to say other than telling people to mind their manners then you will understand if i ignore your feeble attempt at being mum.
Oh and btw, i'm very glade that yore concerned about my manners, maybe you should be more worried about your spelling...

It's entirely my fault for wanting to stop what looked like a upcoming flame war before it started. And I am totally deserving of being insulted.

Well i'm glade that we got that sorted, just don't let it happen again.

Just to be fair, I thought the "gimmie" was pretty much a giveaway, if nothing else, that this was being said in a non-serious tone. That and shouting War Witches name, hehe... I read it as being jokingly cutesy/demanding type stuff.|

Regardless... Let's everyone get off of each other's backs, eh?
This is the thread for asking WW some questions!
I can honestly relate to the idea of hating to exemp. However, I also understand that, with the way things are setup, they're not going to make everything match up to higher levels for you to run through.
Still... Donna wants that and wants to ask WW about that. So be it!
Okay... I have to ask a question now...
WW, which McKenzie Brother do you like best and why?

I don't know -WHY- this thread has escaped my attention for so long.
I think I will live here now.
Thank you WW for answering. I really got psyched from reading your responses and questions.
Would LOVE to hear more!
Ignoring anyone is a mistake. You might miss something viral to your cause.
Certain restrictions in base building are being adjusted and/or removed so with that comes some freedom and more options, from an editor perspective, the degree of control and fine-tuning you have in placing items. So thats one thing. Ive seen a lot of creativity with the way players use one object (or hundreds of them) to act as another so my other plan is to provide more base objects, more textures, and more themed sets. Suggestions?
can't suggest! sploding of happy!

Seriously, if I can just move objects in smaller increments to line them up better and stuff... I would be so very happy.
I hope we see this soon.
(Along with all those call pieces of furniture that exist all around the game, but not in our bases!)
Although... then I'll have a lot of editing to do on my villain's casino...

War Witch TF in Dark Astoria please!!
Also, can you give us something to do in Boomtown other than stare at Babbage? I love that zone but it's just so pointless now that hazard zones have lost the appeal.
Zoning into Boom for the 1st time and walking out the gate to see all the ruined skyscrapers still stands in my mind as one of the coolest gaming moments ever.
Maestro Mavius - Infinity
Capt. Biohazrd - PCSAR
Talsor Tech - Talsorian Guard
Keep Calm & Chive On!
WW TF and BASE LUUUUUUUHUHUHUHUHUUUUUV in i19 please

Were you there? Did you make the Q & A?
What questions would/did you ask?
Ignoring anyone is a mistake. You might miss something viral to your cause.
well for one if wouldn't be if they make fun of you if your Canadian lol
id ask if they plan on making more endgame content. considering the Endgame content we got can be done in a week.
and yes i know i19 has end game but will the future issues?
also id ask about a Complete Revamp to PvP is possible.
Quote:
Yes! Not only will i19 (Has the game been bought out by Apple?) get you your first real taste of the Incarnate System, but future issues will continue to add more levels of the Incarnate System and we plan to keep on introducing more with each issue afterward!|

Actually that is a very good question. How hard would it be to change out the enemy to a level 50 counterpart (maybe not a direct counterpart, but anything simular would be fine). It would essentially add end game content for possibly very little work. Do you know how easy it is to change out an enemy type in AE...very. Would it be the same for TF/SF's?
It could be an option with a the stipulation that no badges can be awared for playing it on the level 50 option.
I agree this is not likely to happen, but it is a good thought for those that want more for their 50s that they love and worked to hard to acquire all those powers.
