I think he meant a real week of cooldown. Meaning: no matter if you're a Vet who can polish off the content in one night, or a n00b who has to do it over several days, once you move one notch over (from Hero to Vigilante, for example), you can't proceed on the path to the other side until a week elapses.

I think this is just a simple misunderstanding. To interpret a "degree" as 1% makes no sense in this context.

It might be a simple misunderstanding, but Samuel Tow usually makes sensible posts, which is why I'm surprised that he assumed the worst possible idea for it.

I, too, was shocked... was it a joke post?

You also have to realize that even though he is very good at writing and understanding it, English is not his first language.

Understood, but to believe the intention of the devs is to have characters wait two years to do a full side-switch is unfathomable.

You do not mold the internet. The internet memes you.

That's actually what I was hoping for. A system where you can't move more than one step per week, but you don't need to spend ALL WEEK on one character. Lets the player move several characters at once.

My guess would be:
"hmm... do we need to look at allowing more than 36 slots per server?"
"I dunno. Datamine it and see how many people are full or almost full."
"Oh, hardly any. Never mind."

I think the vast majority of players have not even bought a single additional slot, let alone 2 dozen.

Also, I think a lot of people like myself hurt that metric. I have two accounts because there was no way to add slots (beyond 12) and I ran out a long time ago. Offhand, I think I have 33 characters on my home server.

Most people tend to spread their characters over more than one server, and that being the case don't even need more than 36 character slots.

And then there are those few people who insist on playing on one server and that is it, and they have used up 36 slots on said server. They'll complain the loudest, but I think the real solution is for them to try a new server where they'd have 24 new slots right off the bat.

Villain<->Rogue/Vigilante<->Hero

I'd imagine that each "<->" takes a week, so at least 6 weeks to go full circle. You know that people will do other things when they are the opposite faction.

Edit:
The developers could have been a bit more consistent with naming. Rogue and Vigilante should be two different things, or they should use the same name for the middle.

That's not how it works.

It's:

Villain->Rogue->Hero->Vigilante->Back to Villain

One step each way. Once you're on the other side, it's only two steps to come back.

They are technically two different things. Rogues are still considered Villains as far as Patron Pools, trading, and the market go, and Vigilantes are considered Heroes.

Oh, oh, yes, certainly. I got that. I'm just hoping there's more to it than, say, run the Midnighter intro arc and wait a week. I'm hoping for about 10-15 hours of play at my VERY casual pace, which to the more speedy among us might be one medium long night or a couple of short runs.


Dec out.

If the devs are copying travel powers from Chumps I can't wait until they copy the Hover Disk travel power.
