Not doable with the current tech, just like animation changes.

And for anyone that's interested. DA is the best play to farm arcane invention salvage between 24-28, but be warned you may bump into Max there!!!

[/ QUOTE ]Quite unlikely. It was great until the yanks discovered it and crashed the market, now it's no longer profitable

Although still a good way to level certain characters from 20 to 30.

Force Bubble is the last power in the Force Field set but imo it doesn't suit the "Defense" concept of Force Fields.

[/ QUOTE ]That's because the FF set doesn't have such a consept.

I always though that the forum is here so we can discuss instead of showing-off who has bigger signature and better avatar...
Clattering the pages with useless images, won't make it better looking but it will turn it into a carnival parade.

[/ QUOTE ]And yet you too have an avatar

Nope, the game engine can't do positional "music", so the music tied to certain areas actually counts as sound. The only way to remove it would be to edit the game files. (which may or may not be against the EULA)

Unless the forum software is absolutely horrible, image embedding would be done the same way avatars currently are, by showing an image from an external source. Thus the image will not be hosted by NCSoft.

[/ QUOTE ]
Shown, yet not hosted is still wrong by law. (responcibility of content).

[/ QUOTE ]If that were true, these forums would not exist. Unless that's some bizarre law that applies to images but not text, which I quite doubt.

[ QUOTE ]

As a profit making business, we can't use free forum software/hosting (they are either insufficient for our needs or are only free for personal / non-profit use).

We've picked out the forums we'll be using, and they are *not* UBB.

[/ QUOTE ]As long as we're not losing any functionality, anything's fine.

[ QUOTE ]

2) if you can embed an image in these forums, it means you have uploaded the iamge here, and its being hosted by CoH, hosting an illegal image like could be submitted could bring a whole new sect of legal ramifications to NCSoft, regardless of the fact it was one of us that uploaded it.

Increased rare drops you say!!! Just go solo in Cimerora, guaranteed at least 1 rare per hour.

[/ QUOTE ]Is that supposed to be a lot?

[ QUOTE ]
I wont play a character that I cant plan a bbuild I'm happy with from 1-50 anymore. I wont stick to that build, or half the time pay attention to it, but I need to know I can make something I'm happy with.

[/ QUOTE ]This, pretty much.

[ QUOTE ]
log out to desktop and log back in.


[/ QUOTE ]Shouldn't going back to login screen fix it? Only got it once myself so not tested it much.

----------------- Signature possibility:
[SNIP]
----------------- End Signature possibility (dang that was hard to do)



[/ QUOTE ]Because signature sizes can't be limited in any way, right?

Personally, increasing avatar size to 100x100 would be nice, but not really necessary. Embedding images in posts would be nice, as would image sigs, as long as they were fairly limited (Say, 400x100 pixels or so).

More forum categories are unnecessary, we have a few too many as it is.

a bit rate of 2Mb/s might be used to describe a broadband connection's speed

[/ QUOTE ]Bandwidth

[/ QUOTE ]
Either.

[/ QUOTE ]Nope, if we're going to be pedantic, it only tells us the bandwidth. Speed would be measured in ms.

But but, I am a mastermind. My job is to send my minions forth to do the dirty work while cackling evily and twirling my moustache!

Besides the bodygaurd option is not so easy to get them into. Someone had to explain to me what macro I had to use to activate those (and i think i lost that piece of paper since). Would be much easier if there was a button to make them do this since the cease to attack button is not the same thing.

[/ QUOTE ]
Its not hard to get them into it, its hard to make them do anything while in it.

[/ QUOTE ]Not when you have Provoke.

[ QUOTE ]

When a red name confirms one way or another how much work is involved, we'll know for sure.

[/ QUOTE ]
Exactly, and thus you should stop saying it will be hard.

All the costumes of my main character involve shapeshifting. Are you saying this also makes no sense?

[/ QUOTE ]
I don't know - I've never met your character or seen his/her character concept. But assuming he/she fits the Chameleon/Mystique template, then you already know my opinion. If you want an actual powerset to simulate a shapeshifter, why then I'll back you 100%.

[/ QUOTE ]But I don't need a powerset for it, nor is it remotedly likely such a set would ever get implemented. He simply changes his appearance to suit the situation or his current mood, not to disguise himself.

Also, from an RP PoV, surely gendershifting characters add more RP options, and are a good thing? Your character can be just as confused as you are as to whether refer to them as him or her. (or possibly hir, as used for multigendered characters in certain circles).

As for immersion please dear god remove the chest slider.

[/ QUOTE ]

Or at the very least, restrict the max size so that they at least look a LITTLE bit real!

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, it does provide an easy way to guess at the real gender of the player, if such things concern you. If it's playing a female whose chest looks like a dead-heat in a Zeppelin race, it's male, and probably under 16.

[/ QUOTE ]You're really best off not guessing, since you're going to be wrong about half the time.

Oh, and costumes in and out of themselves don't serve a purpose. No more customisation options plx.

[/ QUOTE ]

Are you really suggesting less costume options??

[/ QUOTE ]No, they're pointing out that you are.

[ QUOTE ]

Good points. I'm against this idea because 1) it's pointless - nobody is going to get any real game-related benefit from it

[/ QUOTE ]
It's an addition to the costume system. If you're saying it has no benefit, then you're also saying costumes in general are the same, and thus contradicting yourself.

[ QUOTE ]
it will be difficult to implement, thus delaying the arrival of better new content

[/ QUOTE ]
You work as a coder for NCNC perhaps?

[ QUOTE ]
2) at the risk of labouring the point, it doesn't make sense!

I find that groups won't wait for me to summon all my pets and upgrade them and are often halfway through the level before i'm done

[/ QUOTE ]You're doing it wrong. Unless you're preparing for a really tough fight, you can just summon and buff on the move.

You'd probably have more luck asking here.

Though of course they might just "stone" you to death for not taking Taunt

EDIT - I'd have given you some advice, but as my advice would have started with the line "personally I'd make a Stone/WP Brute instead" it probably wouldn't have been what you're looking for

[/ QUOTE ]

Prefer the Heroes content Would post on the Tank forums BUT theyre empty :/

[/ QUOTE ]Well, you're not exactly helping the situation, are you?

Check what channels you have in your chat tabs, there are a few channels for event notifications that you may need to add if they're not there already.

I wish there will be Thermal Defenders in new issue. I like thermal set but controllers end can't handle that, even without using your primary powers.


[/ QUOTE ]Since when is thermal an end-heavy set?

What on earth has happened to this community? Every time tying body type and height into the individual costume slots, and having them be changeable has been suggested before it's been met with general approval, but now we get a huge debate like this... (Not that I've anything against debates).

Personally, I'm fully for the idea (assuming it doesn't take a lot of work to implement, and I really can't see how it would). There's no shortage of gender-switching in comics and other related media, whether it's used to disguise yourself as someone else, to change into a gender-switched version of yourself for whatever reason, or swapping bodies with someone of the opposite gender. Transformation from 'male' to 'huge' is even more common.

The actual sexual aspects of such changes are usually completely ignored (outside of fanfiction), and I'd imagine most people would apply the same to the game as well. Therefore, I don't see it as a problem. I also don't see how it could be immersion-breaking, growing a pair of boobs is hardly more bizarre than changing your skin colour (Somebody call the racism police!) and sprouting a pair of wings.

Here's a thought that ought to balance things out a little more...

We already have difficulty levels that scale various things... why not scale the debt with that? Y'know, leave it on heroic and suffer debt as it is now or bung it on invincible and have good old I3 flavour debt.

[/ QUOTE ]This would be awesome for PuG's.
