My daughter loves the necklace... and the PAX scarf.

Whu..buh?

The worst name I've seen was also the best: Wite Ninga
His costume was all white... and he was an Empath. -

Hearing that, I might just take my Mind/Psi blue and back for World of Confusion and Psi Tornado...think of it as " I went to paragon City and all I got was these two awesome powers" kinda deal.
They might just say "Tough luck, try to use an APP with minimal overlap..".Quote:As for reds getting blue APP, how do they plan on working with the fact that as a dom we get some of the blue APP in our Dom secondaries?
I'm guessing you need to go the Full Monty to get access to the other side's Epics, but this was not discussed.Quote:If they are going to treat EPP/APP as they are treating the SG's and location, being a rogue/vigilante is favorable to being a blue or a red. If I can take from both the APP/EPP pools then maybe sign me up for GR.
Everyone can switch sides, it's just that EATs can't start in Praetoria.Quote:I may be wrong but you can side switch HEATS/VEATS, you cant just start them in Praetoria so how will this work for SoA that went blue? I can see a large SoA SG aimed at the downfall of Arachnos. -

There was a marketing guy there? Did ye put him into a giant wickerman frame and sacrifice him to the ancient and primordial gods?

Quote:Don't know if anyone posted it but Posi made an interesting comment during the panel about how once you switch sides you can use whatever Epic set it has. So Redeemed Villains could get APPs, and Fallen Heroes could get Patron sets. Of course, he got a huge facepalm from the Marketing guy for that, so who knows if that's accurate.Originally Posted by Shadow Wail
I would take a blaster to redside and just be happy. We still don't know how the APP/EPP will work so meh

Quote:I believe I heard this from Posi himself, but they were happy with the way respecs worked re: enhancement storage. I think the respec process itself could be greatly streamlined, but as far as preserving more of your IOs, I don't know that they will go for it.Originally Posted by Grey Pilgrim

Dude, I think he was joking around in that post. My "annoyed" reply back was tongue in cheek as well. I was going to tell him that we all got his joke, but I guess not?
marketeers and storage hogs.
EDIT: D'oh Sarrate covered that!
Nevermind! -
Quote:I think they're committed to the city, but from reading on the PAX forums it sounds like moving to the BCEC next year is a done deal.Originally Posted by BlackSun17
I thought the Boston Globe stated that PAX East was booked in the same venue for 2011 and 2012. If it was to move to the larger convention center in Boston it would have to happen in 2013.!

It's been a while... sign me up! Not sure what with at this point.

I'm glad I don't have to pick just one... there are a lot of great ones!

I'm a little shocked seeing all this drama over a straightforward nerf of something that has been OP for a while. I know I don't play on the bleeding edge, but damn, people.

Quote:Well PAX East will be in Boston next year, and in an even bigger venue, so my guess is they might return for a PAX panel and M n' G.Originally Posted by Shadow Wail
I wonder if the devs liked the turnout of an east coast event, maybe next year they can have another east coast event.
I had fun at this one, and I won the 4650 HD!

Quote:I felt bad for him... he was surrounded by a crowd who just kept firing questions at him. Of course, that didn't keep me from asking my own questions, but still.Originally Posted by VoodooCompany
Were you able to keep your composure, or did you giggle like the little fanboi you are the whole time?
Oh, and I won the ATI 4650 HD Video card in the raffle!

I spoke with Posi at the Meet and Greet about 1 to 50 content in Praetoria, and it sounds like it won't happen sooner than I20, and probably not then, either. For now, the four zones we have are the 1-20 content. Except for the first level of Incarnate content in GR, I don't expect there to be any 20-50 content in Praetoria.

Quote:Well, Positron couldn't say much about the system, but I'm pretty sure if you're getting new powers in the Incarnate system then there will be a way to slot them up. It would be illogical to assume otherwise... unless Incarnate powers are so mind-blowingly awesome out of the box that they required no enhancement. But I highly doubt that.Originally Posted by Desmodos
I really hope I'm wrong on this one, but what really terrifies me is the notion of new powers with out additional enhancement slots.

Quote:That's what I meant when I said it was more Ken & Ryu.Originally Posted by Grey Pilgrim
Hmmmm, the idea of the Kinetics melee sounded cool at first, but I don't know after seeing it in action. Lot of hand-waving and not as physical as I as imagining (I was imagining fists actually connecting with mobs). KD and KB is lots of fun, of course, so it might be more okay after I see it some more.

Can't find the Demon Summoning one, but here's some video of the new stuff:

Quote:With Power Customization, they could do it one way and add an alternate set of animations later.Originally Posted by Grey Pilgrim
I would love to see a staff set. I'm sure BAB and the other animators could come up with some cool stuff. Though I suppose I hope they don't go all Asian martial arts with it (hehe, or maybe they could offer different animation options). Quarterstaff moves would/could look quite powerful and cool, too.

Quote:I18 is the GR issue.Originally Posted by Grey Pilgrim
Figured incarnates would have to figure into the game somehow (just wish we wouldn't have to wait until I19 for it, unless I18 is coming out around GR).

Quote:Someone asked now that four new sets are being added, what has "moved up" on the white board to being closer to reality. Staves were specifically mentioned.Originally Posted by Grey Pilgrim
Staff set? Like bos or quarterstaves? They actually mentioned they wanted to do that?

Quote:I bet we'll see Dark Control before Grav.Originally Posted by Satanic_Hamster
I still want grav masterminds.
Oh, and because of the new sets the Staff set has moved up a few notches. -
Quote:Not sure, but they're releasing it on Monday.Originally Posted by Dispari
Did anyone manage to record the DS video this time around, like the DP one?

Quote:The part about Kinetic Melee that bothers me in the melee part. In the video it didn't look like he ever hit his enemies...Originally Posted by LostHalo
Uh... I can't get the link to work for me but if that's seriously what they're calling a melee set, I'm going to have to start a campaign of harassing the red names until they open up a physics text book and realize what a stupid name this is. I understand it's probably a reference to the Kinetics support set but the name should be recognized as unacceptably silly to anyone with a cursory understanding of mechanical physics...
That said... I would love to be able to yell out "Fulcrum...PAAAAAAAUNCH!" should that be a power name. -

You remembered more stuff than I did... good job!
