It was pointed out to the Devs in Beta that the new SSK rules would affect the dynamics of PvP Zones and their response was, "<nod nod>."

See link in my sig.

Tomorrow!*






*most likely

That is the right address. Finally took long enough for a commercial enterprise to make it to Internet search engines.

If posts in this thread are deleted, it's because Cryptic/Paragon has a history of keeping their location secret. Unlike Google, they probably don't have security guards at the door of their building, and they probably want to discourage drop-ins, even friendly ones, and especially nasty ones.

When Cryptic first did their own separate corporate web site separate from the NCSoft-run forums/website, they had a Dev blog where they showed pics of the studio and other in-house info. Also, their corporate web site had a physical address on it.

Then, all of a sudden, the address disappeared, and all the in-house blog and pics disappeared as if they want to 'zero themselves out' and 'drop off the grid.' You think they were entering the Federal Witness Protection program.

Meanwhile, Cryptic's address was still Googlable, so, I don't know who they think they were hiding from.

When Paragon split off, they retained Cryptic's crypticness and hid their physical location of their new site from the Web. It was a testament to search-fu prowness to find it anywhere on the 'Net -- the only location was buried deep in NCSoft's corporate HQ web site in flash pages, which are not catalogued by Google. So basically, they're hiding and their own corporate HQ gave them up.

Of course, I found it right away. Google maps Street View showed pics of their building under the corporate logo of the previous owners. Then last year they updated the Street View photos with blurry night pics. I kept sending Google complaints about that. Now, the Street View shows a more recent view of the Paragon store front. And, it sort of looks like David Nakayama is out front making a phone call.

And true to form, there's no signage indicating that it's Paragon Studios.

It's on Google now, there's no putting that Genie back in the bottle.

There was no nastiness meant in the reply, just a correction to the assertion that the whole studio takes five weeks off.

Uhhhhh.... no.

They've always worked frantically up to Christmas.

They've always taken Christmas to New Years off, as in the whole studio together.

Except the poor server engineers who need to run maintenance and feed the hamsters.

And thus it's woefully outdated since SSK is the obvious answer. Even before, you *could* increase your spawn by one virtual teammate through the difficulty system, but to say "find more teammates" when the new difficulty system is the easier answer shows that the tip is outdated.

Outdated doesn't necessarily mean wrong, in my point of view.

Salvage = Inventory.

Except recipes.

And enhancements.

And inspirations.

I'm working on my pic of dual wield crossbows.

Well, there's a development that has happened. Any new player to CoH would say, "Huh, how come Positron has his helmet off if he's sealed in it?"

You missed the part where I said a 'personal base.' No other members to steal from it. Such situations is almost exactly like an account based Vault, except the Vault would be easier to manage, but the personal base can hold more.

Just the one time with a safeguard. Didn't try again since you have to run three missions first to get the safeguard back.

Arg, stupid advanced editing. I took the S out of the link, but not the url.

Thanks.

Woah, woah, woah. Let's not make our dreams in life so impossibly unobtainable.
