  1. If its needed everytime you log in (not sure yet as it doesnt work on Pinnacle), hopefully this is changed. If its already on Permanently after typing /chatbeta 1, then disregard this comment.
  2. I know. Since it mentioned Bugs/Comments, I figure'd I'd repeat myself just in case
  3. Global Chat is not working at all (and Global Friends) on Pinnacle server

    Quick update...

    Welcome back. Almost no Devs in any other games ever comment on things like this saying sorry for not being around . Makes me like this game even more.

    Don't let the whiners get to ya too much

    Jello? Flinging? Damnit, now I want to fight Hamidon!
  6. I doubt States will give an explanation for what I'm gonna ask but why did you put some of the skills info in the Issue 3 pigg files when yet its gonna not be here for 2 more Updates?

    Skills is in Issue 5...

    Issue 4 revolves around the Arenas (now under construction)....

    [/ QUOTE ]

    You better hope Skils is worth 2 update delays. PvP doesn't make an update. If there isn't as much stuff to do for 50s besides PvP, I'll be disappointed in Update 4. It had potential to be really awesome with PvP, skills because its things I can do on my lvl50 character.

    I'm not trying to make myself sound like I'm really peeved but I am just a smidge. If there isn't more end game content soon, whats the point of bring back my lvl50 except for Hamidon and maybe a TF or 2.

    A suggestion if I may.

    Right now setting difficulty higher gets bigger spawns. I've heard your not supposed to but this occurs, I have seen it. This better be changed because I am gonna hate fighting named Lt's as I will for any future characters be bumping up the difficulty since this game shouldn't be so easy on me. Also, if I set myself to Invincible, can all Named Bosses because Elite Bosses? This feels appropriate if you guys fix the "bug" with setting reputation higher and getting more spawns when soloing when sometimes all people want is higher level enemies.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I don't think this is a bug. From my understanding:

    Hard-Boiled: Normal
    Tenacious: Normal with larger spawns
    Rugged: Higher level
    Unyielding: Higher level with larger spawns
    Invincible: Much higher level

    This allows those who want higher levels to get it, as well as those who just want larger spawns.

    To rephrase, to show the other side of the argument, "fix the 'bug' with setting reputation higher and getting higher levels when soloing, when sometimes all people want is larger spawns."

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Sounds like a mistake on my end. I thought it was just supposed to increase the change of +1s/2s/3s/4s (when teamed for 4s) in missions.

    Well, you listened to your customers. Good plan.

    I like the ability to drop a mission. One question though, if a mission is dropped, will you be able to pick it up again from the contact? I imagine this system is some time in the future, so I hope that you take that kind of thing into account when designing it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    If you can't get the mission again and constantly drop missions you hate, no one had better come to the boards and complain there isnt enough missions because I will ensure their complaint is their fault for skipping missions and being anti-social and not street hunting once in awhile.

    Actually, it does both.

    HardBoiled/Hero = What you Have
    <Forget Name> = HardBoiled +1
    <forget name again> = HardBoiled + 1, more mobs
    Rugged = HardBoiled +2
    Unyielding = Hardboiled +2, more mobs
    Invince = Hardboiled + 3

    (The +'s are levels)

    Sorry to jack, but I wanted to help. Just to be safe ::hugs states again:: seriously, I'm giddy over here

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Hmm, if thats the case (I swear a dev said no spawn increases, maybe I'm wrong), that means to get Bosses that are a possible challenge again I should have more minions/lt's? Oh well, I could deal with that if it occurs

    Boss Changes

    An idea I've been tlaking about to other people for a boss change.

    Named Bosses - The current HP/XP/Damage Increase to ALL bosses only apply to named ones

    UnNamed Bosses - drop them a little to be easier but not terribly easy.

    Special Bosses - ie: Teh Pwnzororoz (however its spelled). MAKE THEM ELITE BOSSES!

    Couple of things...

    We're fixing the DE spawns in Eden so no more 41's with 30's.

    And we're making a few changes to make Shadow Shard and Crash Site more accessible. For instance - putting a teleporter in Peregrine Island so that player 40's can get to and from easily.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Didn't Ravenstorm say a few months ago that the DE lvl41 in spawns was gonna be fixed but that never happened, same with Jurassik spawning in CF where you guys acknowledged the bug, said a fix was coming then it never happened.

    And quick question, when can we expect these changes? Update 4 or sometime soon because those 2 changes are really needed for the 30/40 crowd.

    hehe....funny!

    Some peeps have seen Geko on Test server in the past. Not sure I'd want to tangle with a pet summoning blaster tho.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I've seen Geko when Update 2 was on Test. He was in the Dance Party spawning a few "friendly" AV's and made them dance. I'll never forget seeing Infernal and Diabolique dancing
  15. As long as the possibility of pay stuff is big and worth whatever price, I'll pay But keep the free stuff coming. I like to brag to other MMO people who don't get nearly as much stuff for each "free" update as much as we do
  16. ehh, I dont want to play my Kheldian with Blaster HP, IMO. I personally am trying to make my Kheldian/Peacebringer when it goes live, I can get as close to Scrapper damage as possible even though I can't achieve it completely.

    Giving me Blaster HP would negate any possible chance of doing it. But if per se, I went into Dwarf form and got the added Hit points so I feel more like a scrapper, I would enjoy it.
  17. Sounds good. So there will be a mixture between new posts/threads by devs here and also devs still posting occasionally in the other boards also? Just double checking

    I dont understand why you game companies insist on supplying the English speaking Europeans with an inferior copy of the general US release.

    For me localized European support means waiting many many months to get your updates due to translations being done for the other localized versions(mostly German and French).

    While the German and French localized versions will get plenty of support , the English localized version will be the "redheaded stephchild"

    Dark Age of Camelot showed this behaviour , World of Warcraft is very much heading the same way , I certainly will avoid localized versions of games if I can , I dont like paying for inferior quality.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Jeez, your quite the downer.

    But where is your proof to backup your claim that CoH in Europe will have to wait longer for updates, etc..? (Yes, I know Bridger replied but an answer from Phobiana would help )

    Before bashing a product that isn't even out, learn the facts
  19. Nice.

    BUT, my only begging request is to get the Kheldian crash issue fixed before putting Update 3 Live! Please?
  20. Cool stuff. Now..to find a way to move to Europe

    Mission customization: Choosing between "regular" mobs and +2 level mobs is not really what I would call a customized mission.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Sigh. That isn't at all what I meant. Mission Customization means, well, a mission has been customized. It's where we go back over old missions and add new art & functionality.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I don't suppose there's any chance of that happening for higher level missions anytime soon, is there?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It is already happening. Tyrant's mission is now in a Lair type thing. Mother Mayhem's mission (on the praetorian arc I believe) is in a Hospital like setting. In Update 2, they redid the carnie outdoor mission and put a tent.

    You obviously don't group with other people otherwise you would know of these changes and upcoming changes.

    I love Statesman, but I think we need to be fair here:

    Global chat is not content-related under any circumstance whatsover. If anything, the clunkiness is more aimed toward powergamers than casual gamers. Also, if you're soloing, why would you need global chat? (Ie., a team-oriented feature.)

    [/ QUOTE ]

    It's not that clunky. I've been playing with it on test and its easy to setup. People just whine because they can't type well or sit down for a minute to LEARN it.

    Plus, Global Chat is meant for the more hardcore'ish crowd but also the casual crowd. If multiple SG's have Alliances, they can chat back and forth all the time in one channel ie: more hardcore'ish crowd. And for the casual people, they can get them and their friends their own private channel made and then chat in it all they want.
  23. Nice. How about them resist inspirations now?
  24. Your assuming that the Epic Power Pools are gonna be insanely overpowered. That is your assumption. My view is that these will be as strong as any pool power is. It's not the same "oomph". So when my scrapper might get an Energy Torrent, it doesnt mean I'm gonna be doing the same damage output as a Blaster's version does. I know its gonna be weaker because its a POOL POWER. Keyword: POOL POWER.
