Also a good idea. -
Quote:I have issues with grammar because I don't read sub-vocally/phonetically. I read conceptually. In my head, 'your' and 'you're' don't sound remotely the same. It takes way longer for me to go back and "sound out" the words. It may be microseconds, but in my head it takes forever.Originally Posted by Fulmens
My standard answer to "Why are you picking on my grammar?" is "I'm not your English teacher. Nobody's paying me to read your [stuff]." You've had [say] fifty people read this thread. When you posted in an illiterate fashion, you made it quicker and easier for yourself, and harder and slower for fifty other people. The same people you want to help you out.
Why would you do that? -
It would all be opinion-based, but by consensus agreement, this could be a very interesting project. I would love to be able to hit the player-guides section of the Wiki and find a classification of the various missions and contacts, as you've portrayed them.

My money is still on today. They may "flip the switch" later.

I can do that, no charge, no exchange rate, no interest, etc. My in-game global is @Thaneval and I play after ~10PM Eastern. I'll keep an eye out for you, and this thread.

I'm digging the skull-santa look. Decent pic, 3/5 stars.

What's the exchange rate? like a million infamy is like 1.25m influence?
Also, I had to laugh out loud in real life, when I read the part about calling your friend's parents to complain if the transfer went wrong. If I called my friends' parents (the ones that are still alive) to complain, I think they'd just laugh at me.

Since it takes about two seconds to look up any of this stuff, and ignoring these posts won't work, I propose that we discuss various mammals after each query.

It's extremely helpful for just about any pet users, and also useful if you have things like the combat pet, the workbench, etc.

My secret wish is that in Power Customization 2.0, Sprint and the Prestige Sprints will all be folded into one power, with those custom looks unlocked by getting the upgrade or Veteran Badge.
Then we go back to having one power, and Universal Travel can be opened up in it again with no issues. -
Quote:Walk is awesome. Sorry you don't know how to use it.Originally Posted by Mageman
What is the Ninja Run power that's part of the new "Martial Arts" booster pack? Is this just another sprint power or is it something better?
Don't get me started on the "new" walk power - just what we needed, something that de-toggles us instead of letting the baddies do it for us.

Am I tearing up at the wealth, or is the picture blurry?

Sorry to contradict (partially), but NO and YES.
Health is *NOT* a healing power. It is a REGENERATION power and is unaffected by healing bonuses. Healing powers can be identified by you going click and a green number appears over your or someone else's (or mulitple someones) heads.
Examples: Heal Other, Healing Aura, Aid Other, Aid Self, Dull Pain.
Powers that increase your RATE of self-healing for a duration are regeneration powers and are not affected by healing bonuses.
Examples: Regeneration Aura, Instant Healing (yeah, despite the name it's a regen power and not a heal power).
Also please note: *SOME* heal powers do *NOT* receive the healing set bonus. These would be the ones that also accept Damage Resistance sets, like Reconstruction in the regen set.
D'oh, for some reason I read that as "Healing Aura" and not "Health." -
So Beef, will your namesake get roguish and be top dog in the game, or will he stay number one on the heroic charts?

If I recall correctly, Hardcase the demon hunter is particularly goody-two-shoed.

Quote:I couldn't remember. It must have been 1Q for beta, 2Q for gold. Thanks!Originally Posted by Boom_King
IIRC, the Hero Con video said 2nd Quarter of 2010. That would be April, May, or June of next year. It's not uncommon, in fact it's very common, that games miss their target date and go longer.

Quote:Is Cole invading Primal Earth? And I don't mean the existing content, since everything is being rewritten. And if he is, why? Is it to save the last few humans left, on a planet overrun by the Devouring Earth? Then wouldn't it be advantageous for everyone to help him? Wouldn't that be "the right thing to do?"Originally Posted by BrandX
Well my take on it...stopping Cole from invading Prime Earth sounds like heroic. Helping Cole invade Prime Earth sounds villianous.
That said, helping Cole (and thusly the government), enforce the laws of the land (of Praetorian Earth) sounds heroic. And trying to fight the laws through non legal means would equal Villianous.
After all, the resistance isn't exactly following the laws. They're breaking them. Thusly, that would make you a villain on that Earth...while on Prime Earth, you'd seem more like a hero. -
Except that is exactly what I'm getting at. What if my hero really feels that Cole is the last best hope for humanity. Is it possible to be a Loyalist and a Hero? What if my villain just wants to break the status quo? Couldn't he be a villain and join the Resistance?
I hope we get enough wiggle-room that nothing feels forced. -
It's not set in stone, V. It's far enough away that we don't really know. They probably don't know either.

Quote:Though we still don't know anything, I have to admit I'm kind of disappointed with the whole "LOYALIST=VILLAIN," "RESISTANCE=HERO" dynamic. It kinda detracts from the whole POINT of "blurred loyalties."Originally Posted by Kierthos
The (probably) quickest way to play a Brute hero-side when GR comes out would be to start as a Praetorian, and take missions that put you on the side of the Resistance. (Praetorian characters who side with the Resistance end up on the hero-side of things; those who side with the Loyalists end up on the villain-side of things.)

As of now? No, you can roll a Brute and start as a Villain or a Praetorian. Your Praetorian Brute can go to Galaxy City.
We really don't know much else. -
Tentatively scheduled for 1Q, right?

Yes.
