    That means we'll be able to *see* the exploration badges now!!


    When you hit 1,000 badges and get the 1,000 Badges Badge, it will probably unlock the 1,001 Badges Badge.

    Craftable Temporary Powers: You will now have a much cleaner and more consistent way of finding and crafting temporary powers.

    Increased Mission Count: You can now have seven active missions (previously three).

    Show Last Objective: This UI improvement lets you find your last objective on a mission map, making it easier to find something you've missed.

    Auction House: The UI gives you new options for sorting search results, your Auction House inventory is now separated by clearly marked tabs based on the item's status, the Auction House text entry box now autocompletes, and a single click on a recipe displays all salvage needed for that recipe.


    In-Game E-mail: You can now use in-game e-mails to send Influence/Infamy to your own characters or to other players' characters via in-game e-mails. (You still cannot send Influence, Infamy, or items from a Hero to a Villain or vice versa.)

    Why? Ultra Mode has no effect on new missions, in fact, it's been said that it will hardly affect the look of instanced missions.

    Is Issue 18 coming before Going Rogue?
    At this point, Issue 18 will be the accompanying Issue of Going Rogue just like Issue 6 accompanied CoV.

    I thought they hired all these new peeps so we could have new issues every 3 months or so. ?
    First, it was 3 per year, which averages out to once every 4 months. Second, that was the promise of Cryptic before the buyout. We're under new management and new management has stated that 3 per year is a soft goal, not the hard goal it used to be. Additionally, under new management we're getting 3-4 booster packs per year, and now, a complete EXPANSION.

    Would rather have new task forces... could care less about updating old ones. 8 missions is weak IMO, for a content update. When they said content update, I was thinking like 5 or 10 levels of content.
    First, it's 16 missions (2 arcs x 4 missions x 2 cities). And second, care to quote where you heard this called a "content update"? We were told there'd be content before GR, not a "content update." And of course, it's easy to make your point when you don't count half the missions and discount the new content that will be in the revised TF. <rolls eyes>


    Quote:
    I hope this gets alot better, new zones with all new content. We desperatly need a new issues like this one: Forest of Dread
    I agree with you. However, your expectation that something that ambitious would come between now and GR is your problem. We were clearly told that this was going to a minor tide-us-over Issue until the huge content dump of GR.

    Um... then... it's a shapeshifting power-copy-cat!

    There was absolutely nothing in the announcement which would even hint that this was part of I17.

    and they have mentioned they have plans for an "electric control" set for sometime in the future (possibly between i17 and GR, but nothing specific has been mentioned)
    At HeroCon it was definitely presented as part of GR and they said that Dominators *might* be getting it.
  8. So, I'm guessing that the Dark Mirror enemy is your Praetorian self that will have your powersets and maybe even copy your character costume.

    Zombie Man's not worried, he's defeated Nosferatu, so, he can defeat 'himself.'

    Make sure you have the latest graphic driver updates and motherboard chipset/CPU driver updates. Go to the manufacturer's web site and here: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Default.aspx

  12. I think you'll want to see this, which is what happens when you can crank physics particles to the level of "zomg! not recommended!!"

    Nope. Powersets just take too long to design.

    We *might* get more proliferation than just Electricity Control. Proliferation is relatively easier than new Sets. And since GR's release date was moved back to make room for I17, there *might* be more proliferation.

    Grrrr

    Hsssss.

    Does anyone think that uninformative thread titles are a waste of time?
  15. You can go into Menu > Options > Keyboard and select different keys for movement. You may find some that don't cause these internal hardware conflicts.

    E.g., you can move the WASD movement keys to ESDF and see if that helps. If you're a touch typist with your fingers on the 'home row' keys, this set up makes better sense anyway.

    Or, get a new keyboard. Go to a store with keyboards and display and try them out and see if they beep at you when you try chording the movement keys with each other.

    I'd say it's crossed the line of condescending into inane sexism.

    But it's nowhere near the inanity of this. (The Smith College comment video. NSFW)

    Click on it and you get a message.
    Is it there on both the hero arc *and* the villain arc? And is it not there in the actual zone?

    Umm... the part where you're insulting intelligence... you might want to spell things correctly -- and I'm being generous here.
