Thanks for the quote from paragonwiki. It sure makes things more clearly then the picture did.

A bit surprised by the small difference between tier 9 and tier 9 vip.
However, the differences bewteen Tier 9 (vip or otherwise) and the lower tiers is big.

This is not the way I would have prefered to see things implemented. I would have prefered that every VIP had been given the same access. Of course longterm players would have had more goodies to start with but every VIP should have the same opportunities to get the new shinies. So for now, I will remain negative about this part of the F2P transition.

When can I summon Steelclaw to get on the spot help with delivering puns?

My two cents.

I am dissapointed.
The benefits of Tier 9 VIP is way beyond the normal benefits we could have gained from being a Veteran. In the past these were nice to have but they were not unbalancing that much (though sands of MU etc came close) I had been expecting to see a VIP treatment to ALL paying players, not just to those who have been here 7 years.

It feels like a blow for somebody like me who has been here a long while only to see that suddenly those who have been here a bit longer get very very very big advancements like uber IO's that will be the new must haves.

I already pay for this game. I am unhappy that I NEED to pay more to be at the same levels as other players. I pay a monthly fee and I expect to have the same benefits as everybody else who pays that fee.

So yes, I am unhappy.

It is a good arc and it was a pleasure to play.

About the vigilante thing. It would have been nice if we could have opted not to finish the mission that way, but to refuse to blow up innocents. Perhaps you could tweak it in such a way that people can 'fail' here?

For example you can have them finish the mission with setting a timer. Or alternatively they can fail by destroying the explosives.

In that way it will be a morality choice and the arc can remain heroic. However the heroes can be on a sliding scale when they opt to finish things up permanently.

Since this patch the zoom function in the tailors does not work anymore. Sometimes a patch ruines more then it fixes......

I think that the time yto debate this is well beyond us. It is there, it is used for farming, prices rock to ridiculous levels, overpowered characters run amok. We cannot turn this back. It is here to stay.

Only thing to discuss now is how to make some of the problems less problematic.

To name two of them:
The AE babies. Removal from Atlas and Mercy might help a bit.
The difficulty for finding nice non farm missions. A simple searchable tag in the AE interface could do just that.

Samuel got some good points. I feel that we are in similair positions. I also just want to have fun. I like to play the game, not watch others who mamanged to bcome ultrapowerful do everything while I am just a token hero/villain doing some negligeable stuff. Getting facepanted all of the time because the tank is soloing the whole map instead of doing what the tank used to do.

It is great that we have IO's and Incarnates but gone is the time that you needed each other to fullfill a task. That is nice for those who want to brag that they soloed ITF, but for casual gamers such as me, it is less fun.

The Foreign Minister visit.

Where a highly controversial 'minister' from our cabinet (a look alike at least) visits the states and you as liason of the dutch herocorp have to keep the man alive and well.

With heroes like Kapitein Holland, Dokter Paddo, Zwarte Piet and Zeeuws Meisje. Filled with puns and horrific twisitng of the English language as only us Dutchies can do.

Never dared to go with this one as you cannot make things more Polical Incorrect.

For me the best part is the teaming and the missions and the party wipes and the never know what sort of party you will have this time. I love pug's.

They are harder and harder to come by (I only manage to get them on Freedom now and then).

So yes I would be interested. If and this is the the big IF, you happen to do them on EU times and at moments I can participate.

Praise to the master

Imagine trying to describe a complex mission to the operator.

Now and then a NPC gets stuck. Lately with AM in Keyes and we failed to complete the trial because of that.

It used to happen a lot more but while much rarer these days, when it happens it is a pain. We could try to talk to a DEV or restart the mission but would it not be better to have a command like:

/unstuck target?

This would give the target a very small teleport a few feet away to avoid misuse by players so that they can go on finishing the task.

Steelclaw, you seriously have way to much time...

But keep doing this!


Have you got a DOOM for me?

That is a handy tip Zamuel. I used to put special characters in their own group but this is much better.

best that I have is a non optimised 47.

Still, like it or not. iTrials are the thing to do.

Tf's are a rarity, teaming a thing that happens only occasionaly, doing something with the events a noshow.

Do I think that is a shame? Yes I do, because I like doing that stuff.

What's an incarnate to me?

Somebody who is grasping for godhood only discovering that every little minion out there has beaten him to it and are way beyond him in powers and levels.

Godhood is not what the advertisement says.

I like the idea, the artwork (even if I have to agree with some of the comments), the comic book loading screen. It is grand!

However, I worry about what is happening after the heroes, save the day in Galaxy and they meet Azuria for the first time.

"Ready to save the world from big bad evil"
"Good, good, now go out and beat up some gangers"
"What? But I saved Galaxy from horrible harm and now the best I can do is going after gangers?"

Happened in my run as well. Perhaps he should have a tp power for such cases.

Maybe there could be a player driven command like /nsync but now for stuck targets?

/stuck or something like that.

Freem is great as it is anm old joke only describers would get.

Prime sounds grand too

VIP or anything with VIP in it. Because that would be the most logical name. It would make sense and tells everyone in one glance what this server is about.

The timing seems right to me. It is when I normally log on for the AEnvasions.

I hope that Defiant makes me proud with a good showing, even if it is the weekend after issue 20.5 launches.

Ok Now I am a vet of a few years and I got loads of unclaimed vet rewards. From Respec, cossie change, fun power. Etc. What happens to these unclaimed and or unused vet rewards?

After having been playing on Freedom for awhile I notice that the Help channel over there is filled with LF team/trial/tf already. This can become problematic soon.
