    Question: Has anyone ever died from falling?

    [/ QUOTE ]You can't, it always stops at 1 hp. I've tried



    (way back when it might have been able to kill you, but that'd been a long time ago)
  2. Coke makes me sick. Litterally sick. IMO, Pepsi tastes a bit better, but not enough that I'd ever care (except for Coke making me sick, which it used to not do). The fanatics I just think are nuts, especially since the flavor of both depends on the bottling plant and they really over lap a lot in various places/batches


    Then again, soft drinks are quite bad for you (lots of sugar to make you hyper, caffeine completely screws with your system, carbination messes with your stomach, and loads of other fun things)... I'd much rather have most anything other than soft drinks now... especially since most of them taste better

    IOS

    First: ParagonWiki

    Invention System
    Invention Origin Enhancements
    Consignment House (aka Wentworths/BlackMarket)

    And several other articles on the Wiki. Also, don't forget to do the University Invention tutorial (Steel Canyon or Cap Au Diable depending on your side of the game) at 10+, and read the informant at the Black Market/Went Worths for info about them.



    I'm sure someone will be along soon with a nice detailed summary of the Invention System


    Edit:As Bill basically said, IOs were a later addition to the game, and the game isn't balanced around having them. You can play just fine with normal Training Origin, Dual Origin, and Single Origin enhancements (I know a few people that run without any enhancements in the high levels... although personally I think they're a bit loony )

    Good thing that wasn't a Pepsi...

    Pulls up a chair and drags in a giant cooler full of Pepsi.

    Got something to say now?

    YOU MURDERER! How dare you do that to the Pepsi Lads!

    I've been told that manga was a style used in both comics and animation, typically the overly large eyes and cuteness style (popular in Japan and China) that makes everyone look like 9 year olds.

    [/ QUOTE ]That'd be "chibi", most definitely not "manga" (which, again, means comic books, not an art style at all). It's often used for comedic value (i.e. for silly stuff like that video), although that really depends on the artists (i.e. most Sunrise media I've seen wouldn't ever use a chibi art-style as it'd clash with their writing style).

    [ QUOTE ]
    Well, whatever the style is called. It's lame and crappy and I find it a little too much on the pervy side for my taste. No offense intended. This is just my opinion.

    [/ QUOTE ]You better hope mod8 doesn't take any vacations.

    Farmers are stupid and ruin my gaming experience.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    They ruined it... how exactly? Because they exist? Well good news for you, they've always been there.


    [/ QUOTE ]

    Hard to find a good team because of farmers. Hard to find a good TF without noob farmers dropping after two missions or not knowing how to team effectively. Blind invites all the time no matter what my search comments say. Etc....Stupid farmers.

    [/ QUOTE ]Funny... I heard all the same complaints BEFORE "AE ruined the game". And I still have no trouble. AE has just changed the location from PI/Grandville.

    Energy Melee

    If Energy Melee is "bad" for PvE... then where does that put sets like Ninja Blade that have one crappy melee cone? Personally, I'd take my EM/ Stalker over my Nin/ Stalker any day from a raw performance point of view.


    (and it's funny that people want crits on an attack that already out damage most attacks that have crits!)

    Don't click on Kitsune's "leaks". He's trying to trick you into watching some very crappy manga anime.



    [/ QUOTE ]

    *nitpick mode* Anime is animated. Manga is comic book form. "Anime manga" is kinda mutually exclusive. Unless you've got a flip book.

    [/ QUOTE ]That was only the beginning of the reasons I was going to do horrible things to him. Well, technically it was the end. But you get the idea.



    Oh, and Mod8: I appologize in advance about the mess I'm gonna create with Blackavaar's body during your next vacation. I'll be sure to post a video on youtube
  11. Nope, we don't know, no official comment.

    You will run into inexperience players PL'd on about any server

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Only if you PuG, and lol @ PuGs. I know the people I'm playing with are perfectly capable of playing their PL'd-to-50 character just as well as someone who leveled it "the hard way."

    [/ QUOTE ]lol@PuGfear

    I don't care if the people I'm teamed with are the best in the entire game.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Neither do I. My problem is I too often end up teamed with some of the worst players in the game.

    [/ QUOTE ]
    Maybe I'm just so good that even the "worst" players in the game don't bother me?

    Edit: And your old forum name was better
  13. [ QUOTE ]
    Why not make the change? Can you explain how it would be confusing to a player to see damage on a target that was valid 2 seconds ago, but not valid after the animation completes?

    [/ QUOTE ]They'll think "hey, I still did damage to it, maybe it was a good idea to use a 3 1/2 second cast power when it had 2 hp left!" It'll also mess with all the players that were already here, calling into question what they've gotten used to.

    You'll also lose that valuable feedback that comes when it was close. That type of stuff helps you learn the timing of your powers.

    [ QUOTE ]
    Is this something that would be hard to code? I wouldn't know since I am not a dev and don't see what kind of code they use. Doesn't seem like it would be a costly (time wise) addition.

    [/ QUOTE ]Standard Code Rant hits your last sentence in the face for a few thousand points of damage. They first have to change the powers system, then debug it. Something like that just to trick people seems a horrible waste of time.

    [ QUOTE ]
    To counter your thematic argument. What would happen in real life if you started to swing a bat at someone, and before you connect a sniper took out your target with a head shot? Yeah, you didn't get the kill shot, but does your bat still do damage to the body of your target?

    [/ QUOTE ]You'd get no orange numbers floating over their head. Ever. Because orange numbers aren't realistic in the first place, trying to shoe horn them in is silly.


    Why don't we just have the orange numbers appear over people's heads when you miss? It'll make people feel better also...

    [ QUOTE ]
    So wait... you're just wanting it to say the numbers even if the target is already dead? I play several sets with rather longish animations (old Assault Rifle and Energy Melee to name two) but personally rarely ran into situations where people were killing entire groups in less than 2 1/2 seconds. I don't know, doesn't really seem needed/have a purpose to me.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Remember, the target isn't dead, it's defeated, and yes I see it all the time on long animation powers.

    [/ QUOTE ]Defeat doesn't preclude death.

    IMO, all this change would do is cause confusion... since after all, the entire purpose is to trick you into feeling like you didn't "waste" an attack, right? Hell, the current system encourages players to actually use a little care when deciding what attacks to use in their current situation (i.e. using a 5 minute charge attack dbz style when the mob has 3 hp left and a Blaster is right behind you might not be the best idea) instead of making them think their attack did something when in reality it was 100% overkill.

    If you come online in the COX,you should be in the mood to play in my opinion,not grow cobwebs in the "D" or waste your game time.

    [/ QUOTE ]Here's the thing that this mentality forgets: They are playing the game. Just because it's not how you think it should be played, doesn't mean they aren't playing it, and doesn't mean they aren't having fun... after all, what qualifies as a waste of "your game time"? If you're not having fun/enjoying it, I'd say that likely qualifies... and if hanging out in the D is fun for them, where do you get off on saying they should do otherwise?

    Thanks for the misleading title.

    I nearly jumped outta me seat when I saw this thread.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Ummm... get used to it then.

    As we get 'closer' to the next issue or the Expansion you'll see threads about "Leaked info on I6" or "OMG, Going Rogue sneak preview!"

    Don't get your hopes up. Just more Something-Rolls.

    [/ QUOTE ]Actually, I'd say 90% of them are going to be titles along the lines of this thread, where the OP words the title as a statement when in fact it's really a question. And then puts it in every other section of the forum.

    Oh, and check out my sig for a sneak peek at Going Rogue!

    I was looking at the GR video and I dont see where everyone got Dual Pistols... no where in the video does Malestrom hold 2 guns...just one

    [/ QUOTE ]Positron was asked if we'd be getting any more powerset proliferation, and his answer was "Demon Summoning? Dual Pistols?"... which technically wasn't answering the question, as those wouldn't really count as proliferated sets

    Also, I'm fairly sure in some press release it calls him something like "the Dual Pistol weilding Maelstorm" (like how it called the other a Demon Summoner).

    We're supposed to get some more information this month. When this month I don't know... but it's likely going to be Soon.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I hate you for that 'leak.' Thanks.

    And Soon. (sigh)

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I expected a Rickroll...I'm still trying to figure out what the hell I just saw.

    In other news, people need to learn how to be frikin' patient. We're barely into I15, sheesh....

    [/ QUOTE ]I love it so much I changed my avitar to it


    @XPushingOBorders
    [ QUOTE ]
    Seriously though... The month is barely half over. Give them some time. Especially since speculation suggests new of GR shouldnt even be out yet.

    [/ QUOTE ]What? It's only the 10th... that's not anywhere close to the midway point! Much less being over the half way point!
  21. So wait... you're just wanting it to say the numbers even if the target is already dead?

  22. [ QUOTE ]
    By that reasoning, your assault rifle blaster should be able to put a bullet in his own head or shoot himself in the leg.

    [/ QUOTE ]I actually like this idea... Would be a great way to get the damage taken/debt badge!

    If your gonna do something like that...

    At least make it a RickRoll...

    yesh...

    Thank you for the time...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Second-guessing like a madman over here, but I think Kitsune's shooting for orginality. I suppose we've been Kerorolled.

    [/ QUOTE ]I'm going for "I like this clip and already given all the real information that this thread will have". Besides, it's not like I didn't use the same link in this thread for everything


    Although, in my sig I do have a little bit of info that was leaked.
