  1. That would be an engine update to Co(H/V), not a new game.

    Hopefully, you would need to play through the entire mission/arc before you could rate it.

    [/ QUOTE ]You'd need some way to mark content that's either really hard or just plain unfinishable due to being broken though.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I can't imagine the creator would allow you to set a broken mission and since it'll still just adjust things depending on team size/difficulty, it's not going to be "too hard", as such.

    No harder than facing Banished Pantheon with a Dark for example.

    [/ QUOTE ]Seeing how often official content is broken (misplaced glowies, hostages that vanish or don't follow etc.), I have a feeling we'll see some broken player-created missions as well.

    When I was proved right his only option was to remove the ability to slot sets in movement autopowers.

    [/ QUOTE ]And implement stealth suppression for hostages at the same time, which still doesn't actually work properly.

    I was just wodnering how a spy, with the associations of infiltration and sneaking around, would fit into the all-action team dynamic we have right now.

    [/ QUOTE ]Like stalkers, ie. very poorly.
  7. [ QUOTE ]

    I am guessing (please correct me if I'm wrong), but Hurdle doesnt accept leaping Set IOs, as the +stealth IO would make it perma.

    [/ QUOTE ]Correct. Same for swift, quickness, mental training and all other passive movement speed increasers.

    They used to accept sets, but it was changed some time after I9 went live.
  8. I have, and you're not. The set category is referred to as leaping in both powers and the recipes themselves, as well as the auction house UI.

    Leaping is one set category whereas Jumping is another.

    [/ QUOTE ]That's just simply wrong, there's only one set category for jump sets.
  11. Well, you could technically make a bind that would contain all the boss names in the game, but other than that, no.

    The actual story is very engaging as it is. Why would PCC stop the people you mention doing 'freek papurz!'?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    What story? In Paper missions? Thats a story?


    [/ QUOTE ]Because paper missions are all there is in the game, yes?

    For a start, RPers will NEVER "LOL" or use smilies when it's an IC conversation...

    [/ QUOTE ]Oh, but they do. Most, especially good RP'ers don't, but some do.

    It is supposed to be intelligent advertisement placement though. If it were really intelligent it would be advertising tights rather than a game many CoH players refuse to acknowledge ever having played.

    [/ QUOTE ]I'd say more CoH players refuse to acknowledge running around in tights

    Removal permission is an all or nothing affair - and you granted permission.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    nope, he had access, not permission


    [/ QUOTE ]You gave him permission (through the supergroup rank permissions screen) to access base storage. In other words, to "approach, enter, speak with, or use" it.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I think if someone started speaking with a storage rack, you should be concenred - not for theft - just concerned in general

    [/ QUOTE ]It's hardly worse than speaking to imaginary people through the computer.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I know you don't want to admit it, heck neither do I, but GG probably isn't imaginary.

    [/ QUOTE ]Exactly, GG isn't

    And then it needs to offer equivalent rewards, or people won't participate in that content.

    And if those rewards increase the power of the characters, then you'll need to create the next tier of high-end content to challenge those characters.

    And so on and so forth.

    [/ QUOTE ]So, in other words... endgame progression?
    Like in other MMORPGs?

    [/ QUOTE ]In other words, a neverending loop where new content is out of reach of players who haven't grinded the old content to obtain the gear required to do the new stuff.

    So yeah, like other MMO's.

    PUG Fun!

    [ QUOTE ]
    Well, my only real beef with PUG's at the moment seems to be the insistance to do Newspaper missions instead of anything else that's remotely more interesting.

    We have other missions! *sobs*

    [/ QUOTE ]1. Stay in the PuG until the leader drops
    2. Become the new leader
    3. Select story missions
    4. ???
    5. Great Success!

    I agree that 20k is not much in this age of broadband but that's what the forum Rules and Guidelines state. Personally I feel 1mb or more for a 80x80 avatar is excessive and 100-200k would be more reasonable but it's irrelevant really since I have forum avatars turned off.

    [/ QUOTE ]I'm aware of the rules, yes. But in this case the word of the moderators conflicts with them, so I'll rather go with the mod guidelines.

    What does your funky little slideshow run to Max,I like it alot did you put it together yourself?

    [/ QUOTE ]311 frames at 937 kb. But that's with pretty much the highest image quality for .gifs.

    And yes, I did.
  21. [ QUOTE ]

    This is not only totally wrong but completely out of place.When the game allows to reach a certain level of gameplay it should offer an equivelant challenge for that level as well.

    And if those rewards increase the power of the characters, then you'll need to create the next tier of high-end content to challenge those characters.

Removing the entire contents of the storage counts as usage. You can deny it all you like, but you did give him the permission to do what he did through game mechanics.

    If you want to stay within the forum rules it should be 20k or less but the mods seem to allow a lot of slack.

    [/ QUOTE ]Last time this came up I believe it was said it's fine as long as they're under one meg.

    Which is reasonable, I suppose, 20kb would be far too small, although 1 meg still leavels room for improvement.

    The scrappers built up damage, used confront and from being next to the AV took aggro.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    WUT?Afaik in this game this aggro mechanic is not in place where damage generates threat indicators capable of breaking aggro like in WoW?

    [/ QUOTE ]Thus the part about using confront (the scrapper ST taunt). Without it (or an aura), the amount of damage needed to take aggro off a tank would be unrealistic.

    Problems with market imo are caused by ppl playing the market.

    [/ QUOTE ]Problems with some salvage prices, certainly, but less so with the rising prices of the most wanted items like numina/miracle uniques and purples.
