    I guess it's nice they had time to add new random visual effects to the alakazamreact emote.
    But when are they going to allow the juggling emotes to be used while Hovering?

    I suppose a person could easily argue that both of these emote QoL improvements are highly questionable uses of the Devs' time and effort. But at least having versions of the juggle emotes that work while Hovering would seem a tiny tad bit more visually satisfying (if that's the right term) than the alakazamreact emote being random. Oh well.

    Hovering while doing the CardTrick or ThrowConfetti emotes look so dang cool.
    I'm sure juggling while Hovering would look equally nifty.

    Er? That should work. I'll look into why it's not.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    I recall sending you a list of all the emotes that do and don't work while flying. Since you never replied I just added the info to the wiki.

    Just finished it blueside. We had 2 BS/Shield Scrappers, 1 Katana/SR, an Energy Melee tank, 2 Controllers, and a Defender. Kin, Rad, and Storm. We had another person who dropped early on. We had no trouble taking him down, including all the AVs he called to him. We finished the whole thing in 1:20, and we weren't rushing and none of us really knew what we were doing, so we could've been done much faster.

    People don't do regular story arcs because they're crappy for both exp and merits.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I still do regular mission arcs for the stories and the fun. I also do a lot of AE, and even radio missions. I've never really seen the need to be one dimensional. Variety is good.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    In teams, though. I should specify. I do lots of stories while soloing.

    Uh. I dont see people running around doing AE missions. I see people doing those damned Radio missions over and over and over and over again. Honestly I don't mind doing a few when we first get a group going so we can get into the swing of things but I'd loce to do some other missions once and a while.

    Part of the problem with the contact missions hero side is that the missions are spread all over the place. I don't mind going back to the contact but I do prefer the majority of a contacts missions to be in teh same zone. Such as with Villain side. Still there are ways to minimize that. Anywho. I want to see more regular missions to but I don't think what we curretnly have is ruining anything.

    and over and over and over.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Actually, part of the problem is there are two extremes with rewards. Either you want exp or you want merits. If you want merits, your only option is to do TFs. If you want exp, your best option is to do AE, or newspapers because they're short and easy and there's no travel time.

    And unless you're the team leader, it's often a challenge to actually be able to read the story!

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Plus you don't get any merits. You also don't get bonus exp for finishing an arc or for hunt missions.

    I got a kick out of this.

    /e alakazamreact now changes you into a completely random object, not just a pumpkin.

    [/ QUOTE ]And they made the smoke flash look cooler!

    [/ QUOTE ]
    They used the Presto Chango smoke, which looks really cool. And some of the items you can change into are really funny. It does now root you for the duration, however, so you can't pull out of it.
  8. I was hoping this would be about the Romans using the coffee drink emote.

    Frankly, I think it hurts the community when these pieces are not available to the general player. New costume pieces create excitement; limiting them just creates resentment.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    I respectfully disagree.

    While I can see that some people might be upset that they don't get certain things for free, you must know that there are things tied to that price tag. If they didn't cost anything, those pieces wouldn't exist. So if there were no "booster packs," you still wouldn't have those costume parts. It doesn't mean they'd be available for free.

    Devs had also said that the booster packs have paid for other features to go live sooner. If it wasn't for the boosters, some features wouldn't exist, or would at least take a lot longer to appear. The booster packs pay checks for people to work on the game. Extra people and/or extra hours.

    Costume parts are non-game-affecting. They're just cutness that you can opt to buy. If they aren't worth it to you to buy, you don't have to buy them. I like to buy them, because I'm a sucker for cuteness. Plus, I like to support the game.

    In a way, I see it like getting a car. You pay a certain amount for the car. The same amount everyone pays. Some people end up paying extra for power windows or an XM radio. It's optional, and you opted not to get it. It's weird to sit around saying you should get those things for free, especially since the company couldn't afford to give them to you if you didn't pay them for it.

    Cause if you are like me and you are pleased with your character that you have been working slowly on for the past 3 years, you woild now have about 15 freespecs.
    Which I could then use to get lotsa money by selling back my enhancments. Not like I need the money, but I could...

    [/ QUOTE ]I'm failing to see how that would work. Once you sell back your enhancements, you have none. You could respec again, but you'd have no enhancements to sell back the second time. Unless you bought new ones, but that just would lead to buying and reselling the same ones again. No profit that I can see.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    If you sell to NPCs, yes. But if you instead pull them off to sell on the market, you can only carry 10 at a time. Meaning you'd need to do at least 6 respecs to pull stuff off of a high level character.

    Wait, people are getting the Cyborg pack for free? Curses! Why couldn't I get the Magic pack for free... or all the others I bought

    [/ QUOTE ]
    This bug could be happening to me and I wouldn't know it.

    I already have $30 reserved for the Science Pack, which I intend to buy -- three times!

  13. But issue 14 was already 13.5 so does that mean 15 is really 13.75?

    Also, they can't work on i16 fulltime cause they also have to work on GR.
  14. Let's see. 31st is a Friday, but I work Saturdays. I already have enough PTO to take a day off. So I'll submit a request for that Saturday off. That way I get paid for working on a Saturday. So I'll get paid $84 to stay home and play City of Heroes during double experience.

    I'm actually a redname. I can safely say that because I know nobody will believe me. Unless that's what you expected me to do. Or maybe that's what I want you to think...

    It appears that you and at least one other poster actually thinks this is my account name. At first I thought that this reply was a weak attempt at flaming. On further consideration, it seems that I overestimated you. Let me break it down for you. I x'ed out my account name. I wouldn't post my account details on a public forum.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    I know sarcasm can sometimes be difficult to read in text, but come on. Did you really think we were serious? And then jumping to the conclusion that we were trying to flame you? You should really lighten up.

    I hate the unannounced major server barfs. They should really schedule their downtime and server issues. I also hate when the game crashes without warning. There should be a pop-up asking if now is a good time for the game to crash, just in case I'm in the middle of something.
