Is "EDPREPS guitar system" even a real thing? I can't find any info on it beyond "this guy invented it". -

Anyone else?
Getting nasty delays and lagginess, no matter which base I enter.
Heard some chatter about it on a couple of channels too.
Is it new, or I have I just had my head in the sand? -

Now, how was HG Wells was relegated to the late 30s?... and Conan in the 60s? And it is clear to me that not enough people have read Ian M. Banks or Steven Brust.
Still, like I said. Nice list. Now, if you'll excuse me I have a web wish list to go update... -

Since the Incarnate Trials are just a "raid 'n' upgrade" grind en masse, there's no way for the devs to incorporate the player choices that made the Going Rogue expansion so much more interesting than standard-issue CoH missions.
If the Trials were complemented by some single-player missions or arcs in which characters count make meaningful decisions, the Incarnate content would be much more attractive. Otherwise, the Incarnate path is merely riding a plot on a rail. -

If it's too gray, heroes wouldn't be able to play it
edit: even if it is the unfortunate walk away and abandon the arc rather than <spoiler redacted> -
Quote:They are planning to use the store to keep new things appearing on a more regular basis - a la boosters between issues. I'm hoping more frequently than that. It appears that Street Justice is planned to be such a release. I'm hoping for Soon-er rather than Soon-ish.Originally Posted by Doc_Reverend
No, the being delayed part. I know they said "Soon after i21", but do they mean "Soon" as in, a week or three after i21 hits or "Soon" in a geologic sense?
edit: in response to later posts. more often = weekly... so yeah. goodness. -
Quote:At risk of my immortal soul... I agree with GG.Originally Posted by Golden Girl
I think some of you are downgrading Tyrant's power a bit too much - the Hamidon only agreed to the truce because it wasn't able to defeat Tyrant - it didn't go rampaging through South America, Mexico and parts of the South, wiping out whole cities and teams of superheroes sent to stop it, and then suddenly decide to back off a bit because it had a change of heart - Tyrant forced it to agree to a truce by being too powerful for it to defeat.
As a generalized reply, I have not seen any nitpicks re: the FW story arcs worth addressing in detail. The FW arcs are some of the most enjoyable in the game, IMO. That is not intended as an indictment on any other content, either. It is just good, fun stuff.
And I would expect certain heroes, played faithully, to struggle with some moments in the arcs.

As this is the 2nd wave of the Beta, yes I expect the Paragon Point system to be working at the very least.
Until the next larger wave started and stressed the system appropriately for a scaling beta progression.
You did want to help with testing right? And not just pet and hug the shiny? -

Is it certain at this point that there will be a sequel to the new PotA film?

Quote:You are right, I did miss them. Just thought the Kat was quoting someone else's effort and commenting generally on 'the BAB crisis'. (I really shouldn't do these things on the fly at work whilst updating factory capacity data.)Originally Posted by Thirty-Seven
(Looks like you skipped over Amerikatt's changes, Chyll, so I think I corrected for them properly to include your votes as well... which would be less of a problem if Amerikatt's changes weren't always in a quote box to begin with.)

The idea of duplicate Earths is fascinating, but I have a hard time accepting that the travels of the Starship Enterprise were grounded in hard science. But then again finding worlds with Romans and Nazis (and bears, oh my!) would be fun.
Quote:Are you implying that the moon isn't made of green cheese?Originally Posted by Shard_Warrior
There were scientists who believed the moon was made of green cheese too. That doesn't make their belief true or correct. -
Quote:hmm. must have mis-read the previous and thought it was corrected.Originally Posted by Thirty-Seven
Chyll, you just re-did the error with Manticore's total.
I will edit and fix. thanks
edit: or I'm just a dolt. I can't fix that, but I can fix my typo to re-re-correct reality. -
Quote:I assume you mean a focus on AoE as well, so yeah, the fire/fire is likely the best bet.Originally Posted by Starflier
So, as an avid fan of tankers and the play style, I'm looking for something a little different. And by 'a little' I mean completely different. I want something that'll go from a standstill to scorched earth in the shortest amount of time possible. Just as importantly it needs to be able to do this on the way to level 50, since I rarely play a character much after it hits 50. It doesn't need survivability in any shape or form, in fact I'd almost prefer it didn't, just a lot of shock and awe.
I'm currently thinking Fire/Fire or Fire/MM blaster for this particular character, though I'm open to other suggestions.
So, thoughts?
I'd probably wait and try out /StJ before jumping on a new tank, myself. Word on the street (bud-dump ching) is that is pretty and filled with pow bam oof -

... That's guy's an idiot.
Likewise, and I love the aggregate move response sites accordingly. But, I also like to scan the longer, more involved reviews for expanded insight to the 'why' of their thoughts.Quote:Originally Posted by Lothic
Rottentomatoes.com currently has Rise of the Planet of the Apes rated at 81% with 129 favorable reviews against 30 unfavorable ones. I basically never rely on any one single review of a movie good or bad. -
Bah.
That's a nothing.
Actually sounds like it'll fit neatly into the Castle vibe. -
Quote:Yeah, I saw one that was not particularly favorable.Originally Posted by Durakken
Btw, has anyone heard a bad review of this movie?
Can't re-find the link tho.
Still, looking.
edit:
Here is one that isn't crazy about it. Still can't find the one I remembered reading.
