For about 95% of all software, games included, the answer is yes.

Apparently they're being stingy with the practice dummies, though. I was just in there and there was only one. Maybe someone blew the others up?

The fix was to change it to -9999% damage (give or take a few nines). Now you still can't deal out offense, but you do get the defense from Invincibility (and the taunt and to-hit, and similarly for other powers). -

Some folks are apparently still a bit confused over this since I just got neg repped again over this. Boughten is certainly a real word but that doesn't make it standard English (hence the "chiefly dialect" annotation, above). Perhaps some people
Does that sum it up better?

Quote:So, based on the second sentence, you're agreeing that the market interface is one of the most resource-intensive aspects of the entire game, yes?Originally Posted by Nethergoat
no problems here.
On my old computer I would sometimes mapserve when I first opened the market window, which I suspect was due to limited RAM. -
Quote:It's the game. WW/BM is bad news. I almost never have it crash me, but it often freezes the game while it's loading. Rikti invasions and Hami raids don't hit my system like that.Originally Posted by donkey_NA
What I am wondering is is there just something wrong with my computer or my software of the game when I try to enter it or are others having the same problem.

What fun.Quote:Originally Posted by Gaia
You would hope - unfortunately actual experience differs
There is lag around WW/BM irrespective of whether there is anyone present - This is why I am conjecturing that there may be a problem with the linking of the two servers. Oh and auras especially from powers have a much greater effect than any costumes and it has been suggested before to have a power dampening field around both. -
Quote:Oh, yes it does. The Exploration tab is EXACTLY where the beacons get listed.Originally Posted by WoefulKnight
Also you appear to be looking the Explore Badge tab of the SG Badges. This tab never has the explore badges in it.
As mentioned, once the SG has the badge, the beacon can be bought like any other regular base item - right off the menu from either the Arcane or Tech transportation tabs. -
Boomtown also has one in a tunnel, that is much harder to find, as well as one on a rooftop. Kings Row has one up in an electrical tower.

For your binds question: type this into your chat bar "\savebindfile {path}" where {path} is a complete filepath and name (like c:\mybinds.txt or something) and it will make a text file of all of your current keybinds. You can then edit that file and re-load it with "\loadbindfile {path}" to overwrite your binds on that character.
The commands are actually bindsavefile and bindloadfile.
You can also let the game set up a default file and use bindsave and bindload to save and load it. -
Quote:You make it sound like they've never played any MMO or even any other computer game before. Generally, this is not the case. Plenty of 'new' players have come from WoW, EQ, etc. and can answer quite well how they like to play and what types of characters they prefer.Originally Posted by eryq2
1) How specific to people expect a NEW player to be about an AT they know nothing about?
3) I doubt the NEW players even have a playstyle to say if they prefer to solo or team, mish or farm, rather play a tank or troller if they haven't played every AT available.
Having said that, I personally gauge my reply to the level of experience/detail they express. If they don't give us the slightest clue about their experience, I'll ask. Frankly, if all a post says is "What AT should I play?" it becomes a rhetorical question. -
2, base salvage, dr brainstorm token and base salvage tab, it been almost a year and these are well obsolete shouldn't these be heading for the bin by now?
Not until everyone has gotten rid of theirs. I'm not even talking about inactive accounts. I play just about every day and I occasionally notice that I have still have base salvage on some toons.
4, Search well i think this need a overhaul as trying to people for a team can be a pain when you reach 50 people in the search, even more so when you select a range of 5 level and you still maxed out.
Gee, you must be imagining things. Search maxed out? Haven't you heard all the doomcrying? The game is dying and it's impossible to find teams!
Yeah, search could be a bit more robust. People have also suggested a 'reverse search' where you list your team as looking for members and people can 'invite themselves' to it. -
Quote:That wouldn't apply unless you are actually accessing WW. The lag spike as you approach WW has nothing to do with the market itself. It's caused by the crowd of people there. The servers have to send you their costume details as you come within draw distance.Originally Posted by Gaia
In particular the WW servers operate across all game servers for both EU and US and so is probably being hit hard and the game servers are having to wait on responses from it.
If it's the middle of the night and no players are there, then no lag. -
Quote:Despite the mission being listed at 40, since it was an outdoor hunt mission, you're stuck with whatever just happens to wandering around in the zone. Your mission level has zero impact on the outdoor random enemies. Only 'instanced missions' are affected. (i.e. Where the mission is on a separate map accessed by a door or train.)Originally Posted by Kataryn
I ask the 2nd one because the other day (at 40th) I picked up a quest to kill 40 carnies in Peregrine Island. It said it was level 40, but other than huge packs of oranges. I could find nothing but purples on the map.

Quote:Yes, when it's full virtual reality with a map as large as the planet.Originally Posted by KingZero
I decided to re activate my account for the Double XP weekend and to try out the new customization options from I16. Very nice. But I got to thinking. Is there a point when the game can't be updated any further?

Quote:I'm imagining this being bugged initially, and *ALL* enemies show on the map right from beginning. The mini map for some missions would just be a seething mass of symbols.Originally Posted by Aisynia
Okay so an acquaintance in global chat said that in an upcoming patch, when the number of enemies on a map gets less than 10%, the remaining enemies will show up on the minimap, to make Defeat All's easier.

Quote:Perhaps you could buy one. I did. Post in your server section and see if anyone has one they are thinking of deleting.Originally Posted by Plusone
I like my bases simple, organized, well lit, and with no shrubbery. I also like having a place to pool my items, I use several storage racks, I hate throwing out items I know I'll need later.

1) When you 'lose' something inside a wall or raised floor, shifting your camera angle so that you are looking up through the floor will often help.
2) If you inexplicably have no power, file a petition describing the problem (NOT a bug report). This is not a common occurrence, but it's common enough (too common?). A GM can fix it. -
And, before anyone asks, converting base salvage does NOT count for the crafting badges.

1) The increased number of maintenances lately is to fix stuff from recent upgrades to the game (i.e. Issue 16).
2) Maintenance downtime is LESS than it used to be in the past.
3) According to Ghost Falcon, they will be trying out a new maintenance schedule with even less downtime.
Seems to me like the overall maintenance situation has improved and continues to get better. -
Quote:Supersidekicking took care of that. If the team leader is level 8, you'll be level 8. So be careful about joining a low level sewer team while you're in RWZ if you have the level change confirmation turned off.Originally Posted by Postagulous
I'm not sure on that sewer thing. When my scrap, at 41, joined a lowbe sewer mish, no one got xp until I quit.
-
I haven't noticed any difference. I still seem to get about a dozen per week, across several toons. I have not bothered with any of the new settings.
-
It's unlikely the sprinting has anything to do with it - more likely it's something about the locations. Both KR and Steel have Wentworths. Were you near or approaching WW?

Quote:So, if I'm reading this right, you used the 'stuck' option for your base power problem? Maybe that one took 27 hours because they tossed it back into the 'waiting' pile when they saw you had lied.Originally Posted by Zaragor
I was on Freedom and had the "base power not working" problem from being logged off for too many days. In the past they has it fixed from 30 min to 1 hour. It was finally fixed after 27 hours and me updating question.
When I first put in the petition, I decided to switch to Guardian to see if base had same problem there (it didn't). So I did a mission which was a kill all Nemisis in Office. It had a counter that showed 2 left after all were dead. I filed a petition and a GM showed up in 5 minutes and completed mission for me.
So 2 easy problems to fix on 2x weekend on 2 different servers filed within 10 minutes of each other. Both using Stuck option and "need GM" in title.
Freedom - 27.6 hours
Guardian - 5 minutes
Overall I have had excellent response from Support. But sometimes..... -
Quote:Correct. This was implemented, as a TEMPORARY measure, to prevent people from 'cheating' and getting the Master badges by fighting level 49 AV's.Originally Posted by Golden Girl
I thought you couldn't adjust TF difficulty anymore now too?
