Very little of the AP Origin content sent people to Galaxy City so they could have left that alone and worked on giving the Galaxy Origin content mission doors in AP.

Uhm are you aware that Megatron's insane? Even for a Predicon.

You are not the only person that needs the help of Customer Support. You have to wait your turn just like everyone else.

They haven't even removed the original missions from the AP Origin contacts. I've been playing my old pre-I21 characters that I made and never got around to running and they've been doing their Origin missions instead of the new Habashy/DfB stuff.

The illusion of variety is critical to a games replayability. I don't play villains because I hate being railroaded to do Kalinda or Burke. The same goes for Praetoria and Praetor White. Now the devs have turned Atlas Park into the same thing that killed my interest in playing villains and Praets.

By fix I hope you mean give us an option for a blank SG emblem. I'm sick of having my floors and windows covered in unwanted symbols. I'm actually enjoying this bug immensely and hope it takes forever to get resolved.

I was sick of both the new Atlas Park content and the DfB three days after Freedom launched. Prior to Freedom I had 10 starting contacts in two zones to choose from to having to choose between the DfB and Matthew Habashy.

Would it really have killed the devs to leave the old contacts in the game and give new characters a pop up window like the introduction to new contacts window and let new characters choose between Matthew Habashy and their Origin contacts? Moving the Galaxy contacts over each character could have had three initial contacts to choose from.

No actually you are both agreeing with me. You see the OP is implying that everyone has stopped playing all content except DfB's. And my argument is that the same thing was said about all the other examples I gave. It wasn't true for them and it isn't true for the DfB. Most people are spread across 18 servers each having 50+ zones, inside of god knows how many hundreds if not thousands of instanced missions. And only the devs could tell us how many thousands of players are actively using /hide of some sort to get some peace and quiet.

The both of you have confirmed my position by admitting that you stop doing the DfB well before you get to level 50. Sure there will always be a portion of players that will always focus on a mad rush to the level cap. That's their choice and they'll find a way to do it one way or another, but they don't represent the majority of players.

You are free to believe whatever you like. We on the other hand aren't obligated to keep a straight face.

Corporate is always worthy of disdain.

Nothing bi-polar about it. What I personally would like to see happen has nothing to do with the fact that the devs have told us that the decision to keep those perks exclusive won't change until certain people at the company no longer work there. The only thing I can do is add my voice in support of the suggestion and hope that whomever makes that decision at NCSoft changes their mind or leaves the company.


Edit: Oh and as an FYI I personally hate the policy where management and executives remain anonymous and let their subordinates deal with the brown smelly end of the stick. I've been fired from several CS jobs for giving upset customers the direct office numbers and names of the people who made unpopular decisions.

What part of it's not the devs decision do you not understand. The decision to keep those items exclusive comes from some person or persons above the devs in the corporate ladder.

The original CoH didn't come with 10 slots. It came with 8. Then when CoV was released it unlocked 4 additional slots for a total of 12.

Same thing can be said about people using the AE power level farms, TF's, Mothership raids, the old sewer runs, and begging for PL teams in PI.

The DfB is simply the newest flavor of the month to be run. In a few months interest will drop off just like it has with everything else and people will return to their old favorites or whatever the new fotm is.

THANK YOU!!

There was something niggling at the back of my mind saying I was forgetting something about that conversation. I just couldn't remember that the question was about making the perks Paragon Rewards.

I hope they do one day offer the perks in the store for people that want it.

Don't want a monstrous robot chicken leg. I want a regular prosthetic leg like we have for arms. The pirates peg leg doesn't suit some of my character concepts. A modern themed character should have the option of a modern prosthetic not a wooden stick.

I'd like to be able to choose between right or left legs as well as choose between a full leg or just at the knee.

Well that's not gonna happen. We were lucky to get that much of an answer. Being told that the people that make the decision would have to leave the company before the policy gets changed is a clear indication that it's a management decision from somewhere higher on the corporate ladder than the devs. It's out of their hands, and they aren't in a position to demand that their bosses justify their decisions to satisfy a disgruntled customer.

If you can get it that cheaply on Ebay then buy it. The cheapest I've seen the collector's edition sell for is $99 bucks.

And personally I find the companies continued refusal to sell some things to be proof that they aren't solely motivated by making money. If their only concern was nickel and diming their customers things like this would already be on the market.

I thought they were paid for each line of code that was written.

As I understand it Zwill said the trial was pulled to fix things that were reported by us during testing.

Seems pretty clear to me. Testing integrated publish/maintenance isn't something I want them rushing thru. However no answer is going to satisfy people suffering entitlement issues.
