    What I really DON'T like are powersets that are basically retreads of previous ones. (Time Manipulation is essentially Gravity Control, for instance. Titan Weapons seems to basically be a larger version of Broadsword, from what I can see.) That's one reason why Staff Fighting is exciting: it's different enough from other powersets to feel like a whole new playstyle.
    Time is NOT essentially Gravity Control and TW is certainly NOT a bigger BS. I have no idea where this kind of stuff is coming from, but it's very very incorrect.

    From where?
  3. Seeing as how I waited a full five years for the single powerset that I actually wanted(Staff melee) I don't care what else they do with powersets, I have the one I wanted.

    Zyphoid, you are a stable dude, I am waiting for the unstable amongst us.

    How convenient...
    Nah, it's called proper planning.

    Down from 200 million per ATIO this morning to around 50 million on some of them.

    I'd suggest people buying them now for cheapers.
    They will most likely continue on the down trend as more queue up to spend their RLM for the chance to get xy or z.
  7. Now that Supergamble Packs are live, I eagerly anticipate the first complaint thread crying about how much more money someone has spent in relation to how much they had planned to spend. Brilliant.

    Touched is pretty accurate for those overly concerned about what other players do in the game they pay to play...yeppers "touched".

    Other than that they don't affect my play. But the ARE robbing themselves of the rest of the game by mindlessly running DFB.
    Help channel needs to be separated.

    In terms of people robbing themselves of the rest of the game as you put it...WHO CARES!!!

    ..Oh you do...

    I had a special tribute boss in this arc which would be appropriate as well but decided to hold him back for the DIY Weather Dominator arc, which involves City Hall. Let's just say that Paragon City's newest elected official will make this your Final Fight.

    EDIT: Okay, it's Arc 497412. Contact doesn't look right since I don't have Think Tank unlocked in beta, but.
    Tyvm mate going to test it now.

    Yes and No. Yes, in the sense that material that people are familiar with is a much easier sell. No in the sense that Hollywood is interested in spending big money to make a new world/universe only fully fleshed out in the head of a off centered dude in flip flops.

    Yes, because that is where my Street Justice toon is. Oh yes a TOTALLY selfish reason I admit.

    ... or them?
    Never. Nothing can stop people from rampant speculation about these kinds of things in games. This one is no where near the kind of stuff that floats in the cesspool(forums) of other games.
  14. I think this type of ad is FANTASTIC and more should advertise their arcs.

    Any chance to get you to upload it to the BETA server?

    I love how some folks are so preoccupied with how others play the game they pay to play their way. Brilliant...

    Yes.
  17. Been leveling a StJ/Inv scrapper (36)on BETA. It is a set I thought I would not like, but by golly I really like it. After I buy Staff Fighting I might just level one of these.

    Stupidest temp nerf anyone came up with!

    An hour, fine, two hours, i can deal with too.. but a whole day?
    Are you out of your mind?
    If I had written the bold part someone would be so far up my crapper..., I guess the rules only apply to people that they are watching or whoever their stench lets them know about.

    Brilliant....

    And yes, it is a failsauce nerf if there ever has been.

    Ok thought so, yeah that's no replacement although the point made that they may not ever do it again is well taken.

    (Gaming company thinking)If I can sell you 30 more 1/4 double XP units instead of giving everyone real double XP, why would I ever do a double XP weekend again.

    I know I bought 30 of the things during Black Friday... still havent used them all yet.
    Is the XP boost 25% or is it double XP?
  21. I have a late 30's Dark/Dark and Dark/Fire on Beta. They are pretty darn strong. I suspect you will see these combos quite frequently on live. I was also considering testing the Psi combo's with Dark as well.

    Yes, it brings DOUBLE XP for ALL for FREE. So yes.
