And the pages he was on, he displayed zero personallity was basically there to a set up for the Rider's appearance.
    I wasnt too hung up over Cage playing the part not to enjoy the movie for what is was worth, but I did think he was a little on the older side to be Blaze.

    I've heard provoke would be useful. I was getting really bored with one of my characters, so i was considering re-rolling him with a completely new and challenging concept. Something unique and cool, but not super effective.
    You can use the Presence pool to stack with inherent fear powers to take out bosses right off the bat...I did that on a toon. Takes max slotting etc though to be effective.
  3. CoX isnt a comic by Marvel or DC, but heroes and vills there team up pretty regularly when faced with some sort of cosmic threat, global alien takeover etc.
    Im not a RPer and I guess I can usually see their point of view (not on this one though). I play both blue and red and I dont see why co-op play is such a big deal.
  4. So I get bored farming anything, including trials. Based on this, I havent gotten much farther than the Interface slot on a few toons.

    Any suggestions on what to pick up? Thanks in advance for any help.

    Same thing i thought when I watched the movie. It was entertaining enough, but I kept thinking..."So this is the Spirit of Vengeance and they have him cracking jokes. Theyve turned him into a demonic Jerry Seinfeld...jeeeesh."

    Hopefully more with the making the bad guys pay and less with the funnies this time around.

    So Meteor Man is like a combo of Superman/Green Lantern/Greatest American Hero?

    Essentially the people damning these guys for providing an actual supply are potheads cursing out their supplier for being bad and selling drugs.
    I agree. Im part of that "1%" that does casual zone PvPing and have sold a few PvP IOs here and there.

    I still dont get the below statements:

    "But the AFK PVP IO farming?
    People are making STUPID levels of rewards, WHILE THEY ARE ASLEEP. The most profitable way TO PLAY YOUR GAME, is to do it while you're sleeping."

    It can be extremely profitable to play the stock market in real life...I dont but it doesnt bother me that there are people out there making millions doing it.

    Save your sever transfer, I dont think its worth it. I moved a toon over when this thread came out b/c I thought Infinity WB had some slight action...I havent seen one player in there yet.

    Sorry. Maybe my experience with those gracious folks has been bad. A run of bad apples, as it were.

    What I DO care about, is the fact that the play mode which gives the greatest rewards to players is to grab a bunch of free accounts and then use one pay farm account to run what is essential a bot swarm.

    This is appallingly bad game design, and is easily fixed. I feel the Dev's made a stupendously bad decision by making the PVP sets in the first place. You can't bribe people to enjoy vile company. All the PVP sets do is encourage the very worst sort of exploitation.

    According to Hyperstrike, it's all balanced on Time versus Reward, after all. If people are using AFK farming to 'play' for 100+ hours per day, SOMETHING IS FREAKIN' WRONG.
    The PvP community is like grade school. There are some mean kids and then a few kids that jump on the bandwagon to laugh at everything they say. Then theres the group of good kids that dont really get involved in the nonsense so much. Saying the PvP community is mostly vile individuals is a wacky generalization like when I play on Virtue and hear how most of Freedom players are dbags.

    As far as this AFK farming thing, who really cares...
    If the PvP community makes up 1% of the game population and thats the main reason the devs dont care about that aspect of the game, why would the devs care about AFK farming which probably makes up .1% (I dont know the real #, just cant see that many people doing it)?

    Spoilers

    I was in a couple of threads this week that posted spoilers and the OPs were thoroughly chastised and promptly excommunicated from the gaming community by some. So I figured Id start this up like a Shalamar song, "This Is For The Spoiler Lover In You".
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urp4LNt7Ceg

    What is a spoiler?
    Spoiler is slang for any element of any summary or description of any piece of fiction that reveals any plot element which will give away the outcome of a dramatic episode within the work of fiction, or the conclusion of the entire work. It can also be used to refer to any piece of information regarding any part of a given media. Because enjoyment of fiction sometimes depends upon the dramatic tension and suspense which arises within it, the external revelation of such plot elements can "spoil" the enjoyment that some consumers of the narrative would otherwise have experienced.

    Ill start with this superbly done example stolen from another thread:

    This is a safe place, you may now commence with the spoiling...

    Chuck started his own martial arts dojo while still in his moms womb...
    so thats like 70+ years of working out and taking good care of himself.

    Jack LaLanne was in a similiar boat.
    Dont feel bad.
