    Doesn't anyone listen to anyone anymore?

    Let's see, I could look into this and put about one ounce of effort into it...nah, I'll just make up some elaborate cult-hoax concept, justify my actions, and place the blame on the Forum Cartel.

    Seriously. Nemesis is dead, Bella is in the Resistance. What I'd really like to hear, is a hypothesis as to why we would all lie about this.

    -The QoL changes with GR will probably be there too.
    -Maybe the new powersets.
    Holy crap, really? Will it have my paisley unicorns in it, too?

    Holy crap, does your rock have extra room under it? I could use a nap!

    On a less snarky note, I have to agree with Zombie--I think we will see I17 after GR. Feel free to pleasantly surprise me.
  4. That much, we don't know. As you said, the SMASHtasticness of the character may be a slight give-away.

    I've had that page bookmarked for a while. I've been watching.

    I have always wanted to try a Brute because of the fury machanic but unfortunately it's only for villains.

    My question is...do I have to wait for GR to come out before I can create a villain and then bring him blue side...or can I create and start playing the Brute right now and switch him when GR comes out?
    Both.
  7. You said manual restart.

    Is the computer downloading the entire game again, or is it just verifying all the files are okay after the crash? There is a difference.

    If you frequently have this problem, you can always bypass the updater and run the game directly--but you are often better off verifying files against the main server, and you'll always have to check for new updates.

    3 more months and I can earn all of the badges in one day...
    And this was the post I was waiting for.

    There you go, then. Thanks, Uber.
  10. If they merged the markets, they could eliminate that discrepancy.

    Grant you, blue-side will always have more inf. because more people play blue-side. But a merged market would equalize the inf. distribution, as well as the swag distribution.

    Let us solo TFs

    I still support removing the TF/SF team size requirements.

    I still don't have my waist capes.

    I was waiting for this thread to pop up. I think I have three or four left to go, but only one that is at less than half-way.
  14. There are a number of us that would certainly like to use the "epic" costume pieces/option on more than one slot. It's been brought to the Dev's attention, but what they decide to do is anyone's guess.
  15. There are a few rewards that it doesn't affect (I think [Assemble the Team] is one), but by and large those are the exception to the rule.
  16. For other folks visiting this thread, I offer 1:1 on Virtue, though I just had a large transaction and don't have much infamy to spare. Hopefully that will clear up soon.

    So...this is how I scored my purples? You know, I haven't seen my mom in a while.

    in fact i do have them and have bunch of toons purpled/IOed out
    Oh, I see--it doesn't apply to...you. Roger.

    No, no you've taken this thread straight to total entitlement rant. You state that you've purpled out multiple characters before, so you clearly know what you are doing. You just don't feel that this time around it merits any effort.


    Oh, I know the OP isn't actually reading this thread. So...GO GO PUM!

    I think the indication is that they were undervalued to begin with.

    Also, OP, I really haven't put that much effort into it, and I have two characters entirely purpled out and one with multiple billions banked. If you refuse to pay the BUY IT NAO price and underbid, you can easily cut the estimates you quote by a third, if not half. You'll find the market forums are full of helpful tips.

    Sheck, I thought that's why they named the dogs that? You mean you can't pick them up?
  20. Clip music, like clip art, has a tendency to crop up in multiple places.
  21. I can't help you on Liberty, but if anyone else reading this thread needs help on Virtue, I can do that!

If it's a mutually profitable one, then so much the better, wouldn't you agree?
    Mutually profitable? Yes, I agree.

    Equal or reasonably similar opportunity to receive the code? I also agree.

    Except I think that's what we have right now. You don't even have to go to HeroCon, or any of the previous convention events where they gave various codes out. You can just watch a thread in here, or the CoH twitter feed, and try and score a free give-away. Niv has been giving away, I think, every single different kind of costume they've ever offered as a con exclusive. And when the codes are flowing, they do several a day. And they do UK as well as US. They're just giving them away. Heck, they even tell people when they're going to do it.

    Frankly, I don't see how it can get any easier. Buying them in the store, which I again support, at least requires someone to pay.

    You're right, my hyperbole did not help. Sorry.

    I support having them in the store. I said so at the beginning. I'd love to see further income for game development.

    If you're saying that it takes different investments of time and money, for people in different locations to attend the con...then you're absolutely right.

    If you're saying that NCSoft shouldn't give them away at the con, then you are entitled to your own opinion. Similarly, if you want one for your account, you are equally entitled to your own opinion.

    Getting costume codes isn't impossible. And the suggestion that it is for "many" is, I think, a gross exaggeration. The fact that NCSoft is just giving them away for free is a testament to that fact. Anyone can get one, if you put effort into it. This whole thread smells of an entitlement rant (I did NOT put that tag down there). I have yet to see any legitimate argument that giving free stuff away because the Dev's are nice is a problem.

    For the record, I don't have one. I'm not interested in putting the effort into it.
