Gender-bending issue


 

Posted

So I took my shiny new electric dom through Nova Praetoria and did the arc which results in you fighting all of the top dogs in the Powers Division. At the final round fight, you get a decent amount of encouragement from Praetor Duncan. After winning, she kind of hit on my character, making remarks about keeping an eye on capable men.

Which is fine, except my character was a lady.

Is there some easy way in-game to see what gender a given character is flagged as, so I can tell if this char is set wrong?

You can't change that yourself, but your flagged from creation. It'd be very odd if you were flagged incorrectly.


Goodbye. Not to the game, but the players. Goodbye. Everyone, remember to have fun. That's all I can say.

Yes, create an AE mission and use dialog to include a reference to your character's sex and see which one you turn up.

Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.

Well it's either that or the entire mission is bugged, in which case I would expect a lot more people to be remarking on it...

Hadn't thought of that. I'll give it a shot as soon as I'm able to get the character anywhere near an AE.

way I heard it, Praetor Duncan is a kinky lady- maybe there's no error in the dialogue...

I know you can hit on Cleopatra even if you're a female. It doesn't really work but it's still funny.

Having other toons hit on you is fine, but it's kind of weird if they actually refer to you as the incorrect gender. IE, nothing wrong with Duncan hitting on girls, unless she's like "I like your pecs and moustache, Mister Muscles."

Well that's just it, she very clearly made a remark aimed at a male character, otherwise I would not have noticed at all. I remember during beta (with the same essential character) seeing the equivalent remark for females, so I was expecting that.

i bugged in the I17 beta ,my FEMALE Demon Summoning MM was refered to master,not mistress, they fixed it by now they say "the master".

must be a low priority on the list,hopefully with GR now on the streets,they might have time to start on the hundreds of other small bugs.
