Truth. And a year later they went and gave those same zones and archetypes to every subscriber for free.

Rumor has it they are gonna do the same thing with Going Rogue sometime around October.

We'll be getting a gift of 1200-1600 points when Freedom launches. That's pays for both of the powersets up front.


No they aren't. They only cost extra if you are a petulant 6 year old with entitlement issues that has to have every shiny he sees as soon as he sees it. Much like the Auction House patience is a virtue, with the exception that in the Paragon Market patience means you don't have to pay a penny.

The only reason I can think of him being upset about VIP players using the VIP server is if he planned all along to cancel his subscription and he irrationally fears that everyone he knows will go to the VIP server to get away from him.

Because if he spent any time reading the posts on the forums and the discussions in the game he'd have seen that the majority of players have said that they have no intention of leaving their current servers and only see the VIP server as an additional 12-48 slots that they'll be able to use to store less played characters.

Then don't. No one is holding a gun to your head. But there are many players who will save a lot of money by buying those two rows of enhancement slots.

Currently it costs $70 bucks to pull all the enhancements off of a single build ($210 bucks for all three builds), and we have players that burn thru respecs like they were meth addicts. That one time purchase of $40. for two enhancement trays forever cuts that price in half.

And if they are VIP's it won't cost them a penny to buy because they can save up and only spend the free points they get with their subscription. We'll be getting 1200-1600 points when Freedom launches, That's one tray right there.

Yes it does. The Paragon Market has an entire section called content and in it they sell expansions and zone packs. Admittedly at this time there are only two items for sale but so what, Freedom hasn't launched yet and more can be added.

The AE isn't regular content. It's player generated and the players or devs/GM's can delete it at any time.

Funny I remember these things called City of Villains and Going Rogue. When they were released both contained content we couldn't use unless they were paid for.

Uhm no offense but I don't want to lose all the storage I have available now with individual vaults for each character.

Vault - 12 character per server 9,600 slots/ 48 characters per server 38,400 slots.

I'd much rather see them duplicate the vault and make the duplicate a global bank.

If he has access to incarnates on the live servers now that means he already bought GR and he'll still have that access if he let's his sub lapse. Premiums don't lose anything they've already paid for.

If he hasn't bought GR yet then he has nothing to complain about because he said he wants to buy content and that is exactly what GR is, content.

I blame the parents. Too many of them have raised their kids to think that when they say "no." it really means they'll say yes if they keep bugging them about it.

Yes he did. He said it's not on the schedule, and another time he said it invalidated all the work they've put into making the game alt friendly. That means no. If he meant yes he would have said something along the lines of, "It's something we'd like to work on in the future." or "It's not a priority at this time", or "It's on the back burner".

But you can believe whatever you want, it still won't make it true.

There's not a shred of hostility in Bill's post you quoted. It's merely a statement of fact.

The only problem with badges is that there are a few that can't be re-earned. Those badges should be made account wide. Prestige means nothing and can easily be reacquired by simply doing an inf conversion.

There seems to be a few people floating around that don't understand the concept of what beta testing means. This isn't the first thread I've seen where someones upset that there are bugs in the beta. Like this . . .

Yep. He's crying because he wants all the privileges of a subscription but doesn't want to pay the sub fee.


I also found it funny he's mad about the lag and rubber banding on the beta server where there's tens of thousands of players crammed onto a single server.

Duh.

What did he expect would happen.

Not only will he keep everything he currently has if he keeps his sub active, but he will be given a $5 dollar credit (400 points) to the paragon store each month he keeps his account active.

So the truth of the matter is as long as he's patient and builds up his free points he will never have to spend any money on anything in the store.

You can't find a place to post this because your post is nothing more than a long winded "I'm Quitting!" rant and they aren't allowed to be posted on the forums.

Not for the F2P players.

Okay, but just for clarification so I can avoid any future misunderstandings, if I want to respond to something you have posted, should I send you a PM and ask permission to quote you first?

You had mentioned tagging npc's for credit to complete the open missions, but the problem I saw, and experienced once again last night was that there were so many players at the mission site it was next to impossible to complete the mission.

Last night trying to do one of the rescue hostages missions it took me 30 minutes to tag the hellions and rescue 4 hostages because there were a dozen players at the mission site causing too much lag to target anything fast enough. (inside regular missions there was no lag at all.)

Now when this goes live it may not be a problem on lower pop servers but on servers like Freedom and Virtue . . .

No. Posi also said this about power-set respecs in an ingame Q&A.

So while we may not like it, the devs haven't given us any reason to believe they've changed their minds. They want the game to be alt friendly and power-set respecs not only are too much work to bother doing, they also invalidate all the effort that has gone into making this game alt friendly.

As long as you keep paying for your subscription.
