    Glad to know that advertising isn't expensive. I've had my eye on a superbowl spot for a while.

    Ouroboros: The ‘Omega Team Time Capsule’ story arc (the updated cape mission) is no longer available as a Flashback arc. Characters that have already completed the original cape mission can still get the new version of the mission from the City Representative in Atlas Park.
    I'm trying to wrap my head around this. From GS' remarks, I take it that teams were running it, and everyone on the team was getting the cape reward? While I certainly don't condone circumventing thematic gameplay rules, I hate to see content removed. It would be nice if it was turned into an unlockable flashback, similar to many of the villain-side flashbacks. In this case, you can't run it unless you're at least level 20.

    The game was killed in issue 5 and 6, its been on life support since, they turned that down to with this MA/AE stuff, which lost even more ppl (I know because both my sons stopped playing their accounts)

    Only time will tell if the pops will ever come back, maybe they will start server merging soon?
    HAhahahahaa. Quality post.

    Hope you pick it up soon.

    cheers
    I would assume that the zone limit for the Abandoned Sewers has been lifted as well.
  5. Well, they do--but "cable" in the Shard is a bunch of natterlings reenacting The Price is Right, the Dick Van **** Show, and You Can't Do That on Television.

    ATI cards and water have an interesting relationship.
  7. Compare, also, to the Independence Bridge in Indy Port. It's just a basic suspension bridge, but has sustained colossal damage including Atlas' last stand, is littered in debris, and remains sturdy.

    The Mashu bridge is built like a freaking fallout shelter. Are we supposed to stand under it if the city gets nuked? Does it transform into a giant robot? Does it contain the tombs of undead villains? Why is it built like a fortress?

Vet badges are no more of a guarantee of a loyal longstanding customer than the loyalty program was.
    What Dispari said, and what certain people have been freaking hammering at since the beginning: Call this program what you will, loyalty or not; the requirements were "Pay on time for three months," and none of us had anything to do with those rules.

    I think they severely over-estimated how much people would "enjoy" being digested by a hortha vine. "Like riding a bus, but greener" was viewed as technically accurate, but deliberately misleading and extremely painful.
  10. Honestly, what the blue blazes is the point of the Mashu Bridge?

    You just don't realize it.
    As has been pointed out, this^^^. This is a GREAT reward at all levels of the game. If I could have hundreds of market slots, I would.

    If you don't see the value of it for your own personal use, that's just fine. But I certainly don't think it indicates the end of the Vet. Program. Heck, I eagerly await my next award. February 1 is just around the corner.

    hurray! 1 Bill!

    That is an exceptional picture. Five stars.

    Just so I can be clear (and cause I'm lazy to go read the entire thread), did the OP quit before ED? If so...oh boy.
    According to the OP, they didn't quit; they just RP'd out of the context of the game, and without an active account.
  14. So it's just you? I think I would put the Devout up for sale and join a SG that has everything I wanted.
  15. Options-> Earn XP -> Disable

    EDIT: There is an intermediate menu in there, between options and earn, but I can't recall which one since they rejiggered all the menus recently.

    I always wondered why it still said that, since we knew it was just brain lint from some weirdos--but now I know.

    *re-reads thread* That was me making that assumption? It doesn't look that way from over here.

    Also, that sentence of yours appears to deliberately refer to six years of RP and playtime. If you didn't actually mean to write that, I think you can forgive my confusion.

    But screw it. The mechanics make no damned sense to me anymore, and I just don't give enough of a damn to bother. I'll just go back to my PS3 until TOR is released. Been fun.
    That's okay, and it's your call. But you should you want to expend any effort whatsoever, I think you'll find the aspects of the game you loved entirely intact and unchanged.

    We'll help, if you'll let us.
  19. Actually, I'm sure the conspiracy theorists have their own explanation as to why the Fifth are throughout the game, now. Never expect rationality or actual data to be an efficient counter-measure to unfounded hysteria.
  20. Geez, what a grump:

    Dear humanity,

    This is not goodbye.

    Not only do you not deserve such a meritorious departing salutation, I will be coming back for you.

    When I do, I will decide.

    I will sift you like grains of sand on a beach, and winnow the chaff into the abyss of my uncaring. It is not personal, mind you--it is my purpose. I and I alone stand watch at the balance. On one scale, your puling mass of greedy, violent, destructive corruption. On the other, the last remnants of my once noble people--those you have not extirpated or oppressed.

    But I tell you this--this Omega Gauntlet? It is worthy of what my people once were. There is such selflessness and sacrifice that I had not thought you capable of. There is hope for you, if you can manage by the Twilight Horizon. It comes sooner than you think.

    I am bound now, as always, by the old ways and am not permitted to name myself. But when I return, you will know my face.

    And my answer.
