Yeah, I'd actually be tempted to put in some defense items into my bases now. ^_^

i would really like to keep the base defense bug ONLY if they fixed the bug that is affecting control, energy, medical, and teleport to be considering hostile as well since destroying that would be bad for the base
While I can see the attraction, it should be optional.
It's not how many times you get knocked down that count. It's how many times you get up.
Maybe there could be an option togglable from control-generating base items that can turn base defenses to "training mode" making them attack anyone in the base.
My bases like me too much and refuse to attack me. 
I really do like it, to be honest.
I could move my chain guns to spots that wouldn't fire unless there were visitors that shouldn't be there.
Where to now?

I really like the Scorpion Turrets I managed to get for my hero base during that base badge bug that let me buy them. 
I just started tinkering with this bug on my base last night. I enjoy it also. Kinda fun to see what each item does.
I have gone to find myself. If I get back before I return, Keep me here!

the most interesting thing i noticed was that the improved igniter does unresistable dmg (2 of them hitting my stone brute at once could nearly kill him)
Necro, other than the igniter, is there anything else that does decent damage?
I noticed that not only is the damage pretty good, those things are very accurate (I'm guessing they have the pet +25% base accuracy that malta gun drones have but not sure).

I can be found, outside of paragon city here.
Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.
They might as well leave the bug that way there is some use for these items other than collecting digital dust lol. I may end up putting some of these in my base just for kicks and giggles.
Who do I have to *&^% around here to get more Targeted AoE recipes added?

I'd be down for keeping this functionality, IF we could designate it to a specific room (a new room type, perhaps, with space to build and secure).

98% defense is meaningless against turrets that con +32 to you, it seems

Huh.
I personally welcome our base-based overlords and am waiting for them to ask me if I am still there.

the chain gun and regular energy turrets are very weak, the scanners do like -10% def and resist, and the gas trap does a very long -tohit debuff (-4% for 1 min, doesnt stack with itself though)
the scorpion surprise turret has a mag 3 stun attached to its dmg but it isnt much stronger than the other guns
of course this is testing on my stone brute, vs a squishier toon they are all do quite a bit of dmg
one other thing i noticed is that each defensive item has a varying rank in small and large equipment
chain gun, energy beam, gas trap, scanner all are classified as small equipment and only have ~1200 hp
improved igniter, force bubble are classified as medium equipment which have ~3200 hp
scorpion surprise turret is classified as a large equipment and has ~6400 hp
i have not had a chance to take a toon in there which has a power analyzer to view resistances but the scorpion surprise turrets take forever to kill
