Liquid

Thanks for posting this, Positron. We didn't get to San Diego until late Thursday night, so we missed the panel.

That's a really fun way to deliver a presentation, much better than PowerPoint.

The Meet-and-Greet was awesome, thanks for having it, and it was good seeing you guys again!

We're just going to have to disagree on this. Everything you say makes sense if this was Savage Hulk, who is simple minded and acts almost entirely on emotion. This Hulk doesn't display that anywhere else in the book. I think that what you say is the exact intent of the writer, but I think the writer screwed up by including the scene because the reasoning is weak given Hulk's mental capacity and control in the rest of the comic, and even the page prior.

For those who don't know, that's the costume that won the 2006 Official CoH Costume Contest. She just got the Rainbow Path Aura (and was so excited).

They took down the page that announced the winners of that contest ( ), but she was on the CoH launcher as an ad for the following year's contest, and I grabbed a screenshot of it:

I think this is, hands down, the best trial that has been offered. I also think that the final battle with Anti-Matter is the best AV fight in the entire game.

That being said, I hate the reliance on healers and regen and devaluation of other support/defensive sets in this trial, and I feel the final fight with Anti-Matter overly penalizes melee types. But I still love it overall because it feels like I'm fighting Dr. Doom due to the number of tools at his disposal.

Hey guys, thanks for responding.

It's not really the downvotes that got me down on this. It was the comment. AE is not, according to the devs, supposed to be for farms, but... well, the comment speaks for itself. I was in this situation where I had to ask, in context with comments in the thread about downvoting farms where one guy said he went through and 1 starred all new arcs posted in this forum, is this griefing/harrassment? Should I report the person? Or is that just petty retaliation? Most people don't even give comments when they downvote, and this guy told me exactly why he downvoted it, so should I want him punished for that? Note that I didn't include his name when I mentioned the comment. I'm not sure what to do about it, so it just made me want to give up.

You both made the effort to give meaningful feedback, and so did other people, so it really wouldn't be fair to you or the others not to at least act on that feedback. Thank you for that. And thank you for your efforts to keep the community going with your reviews, contests, and videos, Bubbawheat. SupaFreak, that color guide is really helpful, thanks so much for posting it, it's a great guide (Edit: I feel dumb for not scrolling down, it's far more than a color guide, it's excellent). I'll be making adjustments based on it and your other feedback, since you took the time give it instead of just clicking a star value.

I'm sorry that I'm more easily frustrated than you both are when it comes to the MA. I had really high hopes for this system, and I feel like it's hampered by the design of the rating system, search tool, and other aspects. I hope that the F2P move will bring in enough money that they can afford to spread the resources around to make all their systems better.

And yes, I'll run one of yours, SupaFreak, thanks again.

So for the Signature Stories, is that 400 per story, or 400 to access them all, forever on that account?

Nevermind. Not fixing it any further. Got 2 under 3 star votes since I made it playable again, one with the comment "Not a Farm, make it a farm".

With renewed attention from the dev team, I've gotten the motivation to fix this arc. For those who are curious, it was unplayable due to a computer terminal collection object named "Remote Access Station" because the name "Access" is copyrighted. I renamed it to "Remote Terminal Station" but didn't change anything in the contact dialogue. I personally think that the restriction should be limited to characters named just "Access" instead of any use of the word for any objective.

I also made a change based on feedback: several people said they hate 25-29 CoT due to the abundance of Spectrals (and I don't blame them). I've moved it to 30-35, which unfortunately means they will face Earth Thorn Casters, which some may feel are worse. This means I had to remove the Banished Pantheon in the first mission or have the arc jump from 25-29 to 30-35. I could have done 30-34, but I do have a level 35 minimum EB in it, and I wanted to remove the warning about "lower than design intent" content. Since the arc no longer contains Banished Pantheon, I also changed the first map so that you should encounter the two main objectives in order (something someone, I think either PW or WrongNumber, suggested).

I have some more changes I intend to make based on feedback: the third mission needs more justification prior to the decision to embark on it instead of just being justified after the fact, and I'm going to try to tone down the amount of colored text I used. I have a question for the community: when do you feel colored text should be used? I've been using it to identify important people, important objects, and to distinguish between dialogue, action narration, and warnings.

I'll update when I make these changes, but I'm off my lunch hour, so it will have to be later. Thanks to those who gave the feedback on this, and I'm sorry it took me so long to do much about it. I hope you'll understand; I didn't think your feedback was unimportant.

Congrats EMpulse!

Happy birthday, Positron!
