another post for the forum titled

"I have found a simple solution to somthing that isnt broken"


believe it or not, the devs really arent idiots... I know tough concept... I would be willing to bet that most of them have masters degrees in computer science or sumtin like that...

it amazes me that 12 year old whiners actually think that some spew they put on a forum can solve the worlds problems... go World Peace

lol a stealth pvp whining thread... see everyone has a complaint... there is no making anyone happy anymore...

personally, imo I think that anything pvp should be like the old fps games... every toon is the same... same size (bounding box not visible), same weapons options... then it would be skill and not who farmed the most purples that wins pvp... again... only imho... feel free to disagree

I have not had a problem getting defeat all in final room to work inoffice buildings... but caves and such and outdoors

i like the idea and while I think they could put a metric on it... there is one thing they could not measure... sometimes a person is just a bad player no matter what there build is...

1. it should definitely cost inf to send mail... not a crazy amount, but enough where if slows down spammers
2. why not send a horse via mail... hello package delivery, not everything is a letter.
3. the mail icon should only be red when there is new mail... after you read it is should go back to reg color
4. spam... there should be 2 spam filters one server side, which stops all the spam from come to my website and buy inf (which is unlimited in size and would be easy to do as once the account is perma banned for spamming it would be dropped from the list anway) and the 2nd which is a personal spam list so if you get into a fight with your ingame girlfriend you can stop incoming mail.

Some of these items are the most basic features of all halfway decent email systems and very easy to implement... our email system is no different than any other it just uses an ingame interface... but ALL the features are there

I have been in games where the leader went awol forever and no one could recruit and we lost access to everything in our guild bank... so when leaders go awol, there needs to be a system in place to keep the guild going...

HOWEVER... bases add a new dynamic to this... very often leaders are dedicated base builders and the base basically exsists cuz the leader aka base builder did all the work and maybe even made all or most of the prestige...

in this event, you have no other choice but to be a jerk and if you know you are gonna be away from the game for awhile, boot everyone or have them form a new sg... there really is no other option... not saying thats the coolest thing to do... but it would have solved ur issue...

OMG... I think I met that guy... he told me the same thing... and in the 5 minutes that he kept talking to me (cuz I had already quit his team)... he told me that he had already cleared 2 runs... lmao...

I was like I dont need ur sploits... 2 runs in 5 min...

the devs have already touted and sold for real money AE as a way to level from 1-50 so i guess its time to go back to the drawing board for you...

plus why punish the non-farmers... what i hate about reg missions is all the travelling from zone to zone... now in AE I can and have made my own or done other missions SOLO (yes I group sometimes... but when no groups are avble... which is common at low levels... i SOLO AE)

we need a new forum named "I solved the AE problem and failed" crowd

I have been ar/dev since forever and I love it... and the addition of mm makes it all the more fun with the LRM...

in groups once you have your middle of the road io sets in, you will have ungodly aoe powers... yes, you dont have that one kill everything instantly attack aim > bu ... that is only good every so often... but you will always have an aoe attack up when in a group...

I never ran the numbers... but having LRM up every other pack and FA up every pack does huge numbers consistently and with no end issues...

solo game is ok... it just requires more thought... I hate cave missions and prefer things that let me take advantage of range...

definitely get cloaking device and superspeed and hover, you want to be off the ground and you do not want the movement penalty you get from stealth...

since MA is a TF... I think really long stories need to be multi arc... a grp would never get to the end if your arc was 4-6 hours long... soon we will get more slots so it wont be much of an issue... albeit you will prob have to pay for them...

its hard to keep a tf together for a long arc because a story arc involves reading... so unless your group is full of RP'ers... most wont wait around for the reading imo...

I think a longer arc would be successful if it were geared for less people (like 4) so you have a chance for rp'ers to get into it and deal with the fact that people are gonna drop...

did a posi tf a few weeks ago we started with 8 and ended with 3 (maybe 4 I forget) people... but since the tf is not maxed out that you have to have 8 to complete we were able to do it...

if you have never had an arc banned... and your arc has 5 missions in it with the farm NOT being the first... then I would say go for it... but be warned... greifers will definitely report it because that is what damn griefers do...

when your arc gets banned, if you never had an arc banned you can call customer support and they will review it... if they like your story with your farm included, they will flag it as unbannable and the griefers can go to hell... otherwise you will have to change your farm to a non farm and they will unban it (first time only after that I dont really know what they will do)...

ps definitely dont use the word farm in the title or text... griefers scan for that

50 free costume changes left... plus with AE... I can make and experiment with costumes all day long... see them in action... then save them to a file and load them up to me...

back in the day, you actually had to spend the inf just to leave the tailor and in a few days hate your costume...

I think the entire AE building should have power suppression... with all the griefers that just auto spam graphic powers to lag the building...

when you drop and republish an arc, doesnt it get a new arc number? so if you kept the name the same but unpub repub... an exact name search would find it... but number would not...

imo interupt is a solo or pvp enhance... i dont slot it in snipe and if i want to snipe mid battle, i snipe... i dont know what dps'ers ar talkin about... I am a blaster, if I am getting hit that much during combat, I have a lot more issues than an interupt time...

Didnt Dell buy Alienware??? If so, I would be hesitant to give Alienware a thumbs up based on rep...

Also to the OP, as much as I hate to Flame, this is really a random thread that has no relationship to Coh whatsoever... if you throw enough $$$ at a computer yeah it will run Coh great (maybe?) and still be a tremendous waste of that $$$

imho all you wanted to do is toss out a random thread to see what would happen, as gamer forums usually have a bunch of tech people in it... well happy day

if your generating 30k+ tickets a day... why even bother? isnt just the raw inf from the runs enough??? that has to be what... 30 mil+ a day??? (neva actually figured it out... just guessing)...

the only legite email i ever get is to myself from myself (like a little notepad)... and even that is questionable as spam

I think if we want the devs to give us the option to turn off email or something, we need to take action...

1. never delete email - with all the daily spam... the mail servers would be off the hook in no time...
2. send lots of legit mail to everyone we know and dont delete it

sure now I will catch hell for this post... but this is america... its easier to beat up on the little guy who wants things fixed, then to actually stop the criminals who are screwing things up... but oh well...

I wish the devs would come up with a proper respecing system

/signed

not that they will ever do it... but does it really matter... is it such a big deal that they cant do it...

while I am partial to my Ar/Dev because I have solid aoe, good single target and device for control... I would offer some of the following to crack the AT

1. get Hover by L12... your not going melee so you need to be off the ground
2. Get by L24 either stealth (which has movement penalty) or cloaking device and super speed... which will provide you with invis
3. I find a lot of blasters that have problems have a strong melee background... there is no scrapping it out toe to toe... I am not saying run and hide... but a dead blaster is a useless blaster... in groups, I dont wait for heals (I am usually out of heal range anyway), either I heal myself or I am outta there, drop aggro and come back or drag the mob through the tank... you need to react to the first hit
4. I dont know dmg numbers for other blasters... but my screen is constantly littered with dmg numbers from all the aoe, its the best part...
5. in grps, redraw is your friend... while it does not happen often for me, when it does, I view the brk as helping the tank maintain aggro...

Stick with your AR/Dev imo... get into a good SG or find friends and group up a lot... the damage is awesome... yeah we are squishey... its called situational awareness...

I have been playing AE (where it is easy to get grps) a lot lately and having a great time raining down metal on mobs and rarely getting killed... the only time I will die is if I lose track of a squirrel (a mob that climbs trees or poles to shoot me)... the aoe dmg is fun...

AR/Dev with MM.... I always have an AOE attack up and ready to go... as for KB... if you are fighting 52 or 54 bosses kb is not that bad and if you have some people tossin down holds kb is a non issue...

if you alternate the kb attacks with the non kb's and do not slot for kb... the tank will taunt back any kb mobs fast enough... plus unless you are grouping with lower levels... the mobs really do not live long enough for kb to be an issue...

ahhh ic... well thats cool... if they spent 2 extra seconds typing they might get more help (need an extra person for 2 seconds to spawn a larger mission)... with all the scams in the world today... I like to err on the side of paranoid

thnx 4 the response

depending on the speed and the maintenance condition of your computer and memory, verfying can easily take 8-13 minutes or longer... granted it could be less as well...

what the OP might be talking about though is that the initial timer that pops up might say 20 min... but since it recalcuates on the fly, his actual time might be much less... in any event...

my issue with it is, that its usually nothing and if I want to cancel the damn verify then I should be able to... just cancel and log back in... and if cox is truly broken then I know what to do... shut down and do the verify... forced verify is bs...
