Discussion: Issue 20 Sneak Peek: Lambda Sector Incarnate Trial and random Code Giveaway!

Jedrious · 02-27-2011 01:19 AM

Am I the only one that's more interested in what the Rikti Costume giveaway is than the Lambda Sector sneak peak?

The mega-brawl wielding Malta have been replaced with mega-brawl wielding Hellions. And Scrapper and Tanker primaries will be useless against these escaping prisoners.

*Looks at the 2 Praetorians that it took 18-47 Incarnates to defeat*
Incarnae path? I'll have what they're having isntead.

The best comics are still 10�!

No.

Well, Praetoria IS the "Coming Storm", right? That THING we've been waiting to get resolved for, like, ever now?

Allied to all sides so that no matter what, I'll come out on top!
Oh, and Crimson demands you play this arc-> Twisted Knives (MA Arc #397769)

It's linked to it, but it's not the storm itself

So is this Pocket D code giveaway event starting at 5pm EST, or is that when the server goes up? Or both?

JanusFrs · 02-28-2011 01:41 AM

My thoughts of this:

1st of all: YAY! I can get to try these new, well-spoken-of Incarnate Trials, gonna be awesome

2nd of all (which is really in continuation to 1st point): I'm from Europe. can I PLEASE get access to the Character Copy Tool, PLEASE?? I don't have any Incarnates on my test server; heck, the only lvl 50 I have there isn't even slotted out, so he won't be of much help against lvl 54, Incarnate-only super groups.

3rd of all: Who brings cookies?

By all the gods I hold favour with, I hope that is not the case.

Me too (although currently I don't hold favour with any of the gods).

The coming storm being Praetoria would be a massive letdown.

Angelxman81 · 02-28-2011 04:24 AM

The damn character copy tool doesnt work for me...
I just cant see the page, doesnt load.
I guess I will miss this event too. I hate having a EU account.

Can I join your Rikti costume fan club?

SolarSentai · 02-28-2011 07:59 AM

Are the Rikti and Animal Pack codes the only ones being given away?

If so, I have both already

Though... I could be persuaded to attend for a PPD Hardsuit or carnie code *innocent smile*

And reinstalling Beta... *cringe* Time to clear some HDD space.

The devs are aware that the character copy tool isn't working and are in the process of fixing it.

Ok, i gotta ask, when it says 8pm -11pm EST, which i converted into 7pm-10pmCST, What happens If i can only show up at like 8pm CST.

TsumijuZero · 03-01-2011 03:15 PM

It was really great to see the Devs EU side tonight, but I was disappointed to see codes being given out mid testing rather than as a pre testing event. People were either scrambling to copy codes from the admin channel whilst trying to test Lambda sector, or missing out entirely!
