The other thing I wanted to say about that, is that I don't buy when developers claim that us mean posters hurt their feeling and make them not want to talk with us. The developers have the control. Their input has much more force than any poster. I'm sorry but suck it up. This is the only service industry where client service is thought to be optional.

But that doesn't mean we have free reign to be a raging douchehat, Living.

Let's put it this way: If you went to McDonalds and the cook put pickles on your Big Mac when you specifically said no pickles, would you go back the next day, not order anything, and just stand there taunting and insulting the cook? Would you change your name to EvilStupidPickleCook and rant about how he wasn't are man because he didn't know how to take the pickles off your Big Mac to any customer who tries to order? Would you go up to other cooks and go, "Hey, we love you, man. I trust you will take the pickles off my Big Mac. So don't screw with my Big Mac."

No other industry allows unsatisfied customers to attack and harass someone working for them.

The conspiracy theories and personal vendettas against developers of this game are childish. Please grow up.

There were other solutions. Take off the blind fold.

[/ QUOTE ]

So what are some of your ideas, oh great and wise LivingHellfire?

I'd rather they go back to the drawing board in I7 and rework the way end drain works. Get rid of the "all or nothing" of it. Make it so that any enemy can't do all of its moves with 2 end points anymore. That would instantly make end drain better than it's ever been in this game, even if we can't one shot drain those bosses anymore.

[ QUOTE ]
Fine... have it your way. For over a week blaster were posting about it and we were ignored... again...


[/ QUOTE ]

Except we weren't since Castle posted on it. He never promised an immediate fix, though, and said they were looking into it.

So please knock off the pity party. You are making the rest of us blasters look bad.

[ QUOTE ]
What kind of bizarro world do you live in? Did you read my post? Your own even intimates that you yourself are under the impression that he was aware that it was the wrong move and pushed it through anyway.


[/ QUOTE ]

No, it was a move that had to be made for other reasons that unfortunately affected endurance draining heroes and villains.

But, carry on. How would you like Statesman to rectify this situation? What would be better for you than a verbal apologize? 40 lashes?

[ QUOTE ]
Let's not forget that it was on test for like, 6 minutes before it was jammed through to live.


[/ QUOTE ]

I know being an irrational ranter is your schtick, but the patch that included the changes to endurance for bosses and LTs was on test for over a week, actually longer than most patches have been on test that have included far more than that patch did.

Haha! Someone needs to get Beef Cake on this stat!

[/ QUOTE ]


Actually Beef knows and said it is too insane to attempt. So even the most dedicated of us badge whores is saying hell no.

[/ QUOTE ]

Could this be the first time in the history of badgewhoring where Beefy says a badge is too insane to get yet Taser is actually considering it?

[ QUOTE ]

This is awarded for defeating Rularru Sentry Bosses. Is there a mission in CoV that has access to Rularru Sentry Bosses? I don't know off hand.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, there's at least 1 from Technician Naylor. It's "Rescue Rimsey" in the 35-40 contact chain.

Edit: Just to clarify further, it does indeed spawn the eyeball Overseer bosses.

[ QUOTE ]
To me it doesnt matter if you can forcce a spawn or not. The CoV mini-GM's spawn faster than CoH GM's in any case. I've smacked down D/S numerous times myself. I only made my statement because Taser keeps reposting his challenge constantly. It needs to be given a rest. Please. BTW, I generally enjoy Taser's posts. He is quite informative, but not ALWAYS right. There is nothing wrong wiith that, is there?

[/ QUOTE ]

Nope, nothing wrong with it because I'm right. I've even searched Cuppa's post history as far back as CoV's release and found nothing that said "Deathsurge is not summonable, he's random." If you have the post where she says you cannot summon her, do post it.

How many times do people have to post "I summoned him 2-3 times in a row after killing 120 gremlins" before people continue to claim this is random?

The hard evidence we have is the countless reports of people stating that they were able to make him spawn after killing 100-150 gremlins in CaD on both test and live servers.

I'm not sure why there's so much debate about this one since it's so easy to verify. Go to CaD. Make sure there's no Deathsurges spawned. Kill 100-125 Gremlins. Then kill Deathsurge. Repeat once. No way a random spawn would randomly spawn that fast.

Can we get a link to the post where she said this?

Because I have redname confirmation through PM that you can summon Deathsurge, too.

[/ QUOTE ]

Let's see it. Copy and Paste.

Nice attempt to bait me to break forum rules by posting a PM.

It's for 100 boss prisoners.

So it's possible to get Warden without killing enough bosses to get Mob Specialist.

I have *yet* to see the Eden Giant Monster ever spawn, as I think it gets lost in the trees?


[/ QUOTE ]

There is no Eden Giant Monster, so that might be your problem.

I don't know, Lum.

I agree with you that interest in Giant Monsters has waned big time on Pinnacle. But I'm thinking that, if they make the buff to the rewards substantial, we could see at least an initial rush for them again.

Look at AVs. If fighting a Giant Monster gave everyone who's on a team that does 10% of the damage the badge, double XP, salvage, and a +3 SO, it could make them more interesting.

Personally, I'm hoping for them giving all Giant Monsters a special enhancement, maybe one that buffs 1 aspect by 50%. That'll bring interest back to the monsters. But this is most likely a pipedream.

Oh joy. The Dev Digest is herding Forum Trolls for us.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, how dare those stupid trolls use the facts and logic to completely ruin the hysteria of calling for future nerfs.

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM.

PvP zone badges seem to be working fine following the guidelines Posi himself posted at the beginning of this thread.

Can we please try to be a little less hostile to a dev taking the time to answer our questions?

As far as I know, only the following badges are bugged:
Fortunata Seer
Spider Smasher
Mu Guardian
Gunner

Posi,

Not sure if this has been asked lately, but when will we be able to earn a badge for killing Deathsurge.

Also: will villains ever get Demon Slayer for defeating Baphomet in Magus' mission in CoV?

You're lucky, cause I made such lists for City of Villains and City of Heroes

[/ QUOTE ]

Ooh! Villains can get a Sorcerer!

[/ QUOTE ]

Just a word of warning: Sorceror Gladiators were removed pre-beta.

I made one of these last year during the infamous Kill Skuls photshop thread. Don't believe me? Click here ! It's on the Avatar page.

That's nothing: my old Taser avatar is still on the third page of that site.

I've created a monster of a bandwagon.

*waves to Positron*

Will Snowbeast also be fixed?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes. This is given to players who got the Toy Collector badge in December.

[/ QUOTE ]

Whoot, I remember sending you a PM requesting a snowbeast gladiator in CoV Beta! So I'm retroactively taking credit for this idea.

Come to think of it... the gladiator awarded with Toothbreaker was on my list, too, and I know I was bugging Recluse for it...
