I'd like to see compiled results as well.

Survey done & done...

Thing's I'd like to see in the market: game subscription time purchaseable with points... all the standard ones, 1, 3, 6 and 12 month subs... and maybe even the 12+2 holiday one during christmas.

Things I'd like to see in super packs: Character slot unlocks, Salvage and Recipe inventory increases

Seeing others suggestions here, I suppose there are a few more I could have put in, but those things just came off the top of my head, didn't put a lot of thought into it.

Thanks for making the survey available to everyone!

Eh, I put down old holiday stuff. Like, for example, in one of the super packs you could get pieces of last Halloween's costume stuff, or maybe a very small chance at the Leprechaun, etc.

I'll second that notion, I'd like to see the compiled results for the ranking stuff and most liked iTrial etc.

Super Packs can go away and be forgotten. I hate the system for it, the randomness, the gambling aspect of it. I do not want anything it because I want it to go away.

I selected individual player housing as a desired feature; I think it's now universally acknowledged that bases aren't going to improve from where they are. It's a house of cards from a code perspective, and can be a beast to base builders. The people who do work magic with bases are wonderful in my book, but they're probably more aware than most how troublesome it can be to work with.

I'd ask people to get behind individual housing so we at the very least have a new, easier to use code base (which could maybe become base code 2.0) and let us use all the wonderful new assets for interiors that have blossomed since Going Rogue.

It's better not knowing. All it does is get people frustrated when they decide to ignore the results. I still recall them telling us the results for what the players said they wanted next zone to be and here we are several years later and they still haven't added that zone to the game.

If I hadn't, my survey would show I am waiting on pins and needles for the Magisterium trial and have zero interest in Halloween 2 stuffs.

I am the one who absolutely loves the female vampire face. I add the cigarette from the Gunslinger set to it, turn the bats aura on, call forth my Black wolf pet, and my toons are stylin'

0 interest in the Magesterium Trial, can't wait for the Hybrid Slot...

I second the global Midnighter Unlock for the Paragon Market.

I would also like to share some of my ideas publicly. I think we should be able to get Incarnate threads as a rare Pack item, and as a rare item a random access to the Reward Table for the Incarnate Salvage (Common, Uncommon, Rare, and Very Rare, just as a Trial).

Rare and Very Rare drops should include Purple IO and PVP IO sets (account bound versions)

Maelstrom's Pistols should be added as a Rare Drop to the Packs, or as a straight purchasable item in the market. (The amount they go for in the market is obscene)

I am looking forward to the new sets, and thoroughly excited at hints of other features we may have down the line, this game is a wonderful community and a wonderful set of friends for me and I look forward to all the things we have yet to experience...

Good Hunting...

Cant wait for Water blast, Next super pack: Rogues and vigilantes (Wondering what will be the theme?), Cyberpunk costume, and costumes and powersets in general.
I think Powers, Costumes and Zone/Content revamp are the things I enjoy more.

As it it's obvious from U-Stream and the Summit I am one of the Rare players that primarily prefers non-melee things so sign me up for water blast ASAP!

Also the other options were nice but CROSS SERVER TEAMING?!?!? Sign me up please! This would...

  • Tap into all that XP surplus !
  • Make everyone happy due to endless teaming!
  • You wouldn't have to wait 'til peak times of the day to find a team!
  • It would build up the community
  • Bring in fresh players and bring forth life to low populated Servers
  • Solve the issue of running out of slots for your home server
  • Address the elephant in the room which would be a much needed server merge.

I filled out the survey, and was fine with the wording and options for all questions but one.

Answering which incarnate trial is my favorite was difficult. I do run trials now and then, but I actually sort of dislike them all, to various degrees. I would have liked an option to say "I don't really like any of them, but I play them to get incarnate salvage."

I agree my favorite trial is actually the Mag trial but you didn't have that option!

meeee tooooooooo

i was uber bummed to hear that meelee armor, and radiation at that was chosen in the powerset panel.

but ecstatic to hear that air blast was a close runner. i'd so present that in a heart beat. if i could have gone to the Pummit, i could have presented an excellent case for Air/Wind blast with power names, functions, and illustrations in an entertaining, amicable, and professional manner.

but i know a bunch of folks like meelee :/. i'd have preferred forcefield armor more. [think Armor from X-men] too bad that wasnt on the survey. a basic box for you to contribute to the various panels that happened. costume one was another meh. but if im to get my eventual Dino-costume pack that others will go 'meh' for, then they should get the same fulfillment in return whether or not i want a post-apocalyptic costume set. any new costume parts are more than welcome.

First of all, long post is LONG.

Secondly, Thanks for the survey Devs I love taking those things when they pop up in my e-mail after closing a ticket with Customer Service.

And now, onto the fun part....

So glad this Praetoria bit is almost over. I'm so sick of it.

Praetoria is a ghost town now, thanks to the fact that you can create any AT and start on any side now. Open Praetoria up so we can leave that zone, if we choose, and not be tethered to it the way it was when GR came out. I'd play in Praetoria more often, because the storyline is freaking awesome, if I didn't have to spend 20 levels there, before I could even step foot on 'normal' ground.

The idea of sticking 1 singular costume piece (Maelstrom's Pistols) in an iTrial with a 4% drop on two occassions is just plain silly. To be entirely honest, thanks to the problems TPN had when it launched, I think I've only seen that trial run a scant handfull of times. If you're going to make a 'special rare costume piece' then make it drop like a purple in a regular mission for gods sake. If Maelstrom has to be present for it to drop, fine, make it a potential drop in the couple of tip missions he's featured in, as well, or in any praetorian based content.

Okay, bases, yes it's a house of cards. Yes, us (basebuilders) spend 100's of hours building gorgeous interiors with a limited amount of 'stuff' to play with. The very idea of personal player housing (even if I had to buy the space with real money from the Paragon Market) using a new code (base 2.0) and current SG bases becoming 'legacy' makes perfect sense to me, and is a little exciting to think about. Or, I'd be just as happy tracking down the original base coders, and beating them senseless (or asking nicely, whichever came first) until they fixed, left notes, and made it perfectly clear how to work with the code of the base system. I'd be willing to learn the code, if Paragon ever opensourced it. Maybe between all us geeks, nerds, brainiacs, and creators, we could fix what they never told you guys how to fix. Consider opensourcing the base code maybe? I don't know, it's worth a shot of asking for it, if you're taking requests, LOL.

Cross Server Teaming?? Yes please. I'd much rather go do something else, while waiting in a queue line to go on an itrial, than stand around whatever zone itrials are formed in and spam 'LF trial' all day long.

The ability to add myself to a supergroup, or be automatically added to it, and let me decide what I'm going to do with the toon later, instead of having to hope and pray I find 1 person to take time out of their day to help me into my own SG, or (if you're in an active SG) pray someone from that SG is online and can invite you. We need some sort of invitation system, where you can type in the name of a toon, send it to them via in-game e-mail, they accept it, and BAM they're in a SG, without anyone having to be there to put them in. Have advanced options, even, if you want to preset their ranks.

I could go on for hours on more stuff, but I think I'm going to stop here, mainly because the servers are back up and I have to go IO a new 50.

Happy Hunting

I agree! I guess a lot of players prefer Melee and Masterminds over everything else which is cool but KA-MONNNNN lol.

I was thinking the same as you Davey. I was screaming at my monitor when they were presenting air blast! I was all like "no, no! It should deal -Res and KD! lol" The las who pitched Air Control did an EXCELLENT job though!

Well I guess if it had to choose any Melee Primary/Secondary it would be Radiation so I'm not tooo disappointed. I just hope rad melee deals some -res, small -def and toxic damage...but not to crazy we don't want it to outdo TW or SS :P.

Cross Server Teaming isn't my top pick but it's intriguing me. I'm guessing it can work since there exists global channels. Would it be using instanced versions of TFs? Or would it just be for the trials(DFB,DIB, itrials)?

You're not alone. So did I. And while I picked 'New Powers', I'm also very interested in how much easier teaming would be if 'Cross Server Teaming' were implemented.
