No, you are remembering incorrectly.
It worked fine. They removed it because there was nothing to DO with it. They pulled it and started working on Apex and Tin Mage, and the arc that unlocks it, because having the slot and having nothing to use it on made little sense. -
my second account is Premium and was able to fill out Tier 5 in Rewards, I see I need to reach Tier 7 before I can use IOs again...do I have to completely fill Tier 7 or just unlock it before I can use IOs?
Quote:Oh boy...did he have both his builds filled w/ IOs?Originally Posted by Zyphoid
My Kid's account was reactivated as a premium account last week. I would not want to play as a low reward premium. The VIP is a far better deal if you are under t7 rewards. He did a respec and lost all of his IOs, and is now begging for me to get him an IO license. I am pretty sure after that he will ask me to replace all of his lost common IOs. -
Quote:If I remember correctly, and I believe it was Positron that said they removed the Alpha Slot from Going Rogue because it wasn't working as intended and ended up being pushed back because of it.
Furthermore, the fact that the Alpha slot was added to the Going Rogue beta after it began, and was subsequently removed from that beta before it went live indicates that Incarnates were never intended to be included in the package that is Going Rogue. -
The restrictions on video game discussions is just as silly now as it was when it was first implemented.

Quote:I'd be content if I was able to still get the numerical values while not getting the set bonuses. But...it's probably <standard coding rant here>Originally Posted by DumpleBerry
However, as far as opining for a drastic change...I entirely agree with Mr. DJ. There should have been some manner of "forgiveness" or "grace protection" for Premiums with IO builds. Let them function, perhaps, but no longer allow them to be slotted. That way, they stay where they're at unless you mess around with them.
-
I wish they'd reconsider on IOs that you've already bought and slotted on now Premium Accounts...

Quote:never got hit by the confusion...but all of them having Tactics ruined my Shield character's day...Originally Posted by Techbot Alpha
All Resistance members, Minion and upwards, all have the Mind-washed Confusion effect from the BAF iTrial.
As if that wasn't bugged enough, where the hell do these guys get off having stealth that they can attack you from without revealing themselves? NO other mob in the game does that! That's not a challenge, that's 'have a power with +Perc or tons of yellows or get ready for an exercise in frustration'.
Just gives me another reason to hate iTrials; they break bloody normal content too! -
Quote:RNG hates me when I run the Underground Trial...I've yet to receive anything above a common, I typically receive the rare table on my AoE based characters in previous trials, not so much luck in this one -_-Originally Posted by EvilGeko
If the random number generator really hates you, then you will still eventually get what you want.

Quote:eh...I'll fall victim regardless to those w/ powers, even if it's not intentional or all that bad in the first place.Originally Posted by Biowraith
You should stop now if you know what's good for you. Lot of accidents can happen in a thread like this. I'd hate to think of something like that happening to you. In fact looking around, this whole thread is a flametrap; one careless match and the whole place could go up, just like that. It'd be a terrible shame if that were to happen to such a nice, respectable thread. Capiche?

Quote:still feels like I'm getting jipped if I paid for GR already, not asking for anything else.Originally Posted by Oedipus_Tex
I hate to be the arbiter of logic, but since all subscribers are now granted GR for free, there is nothing violated. You need conditions 1 and 2 to be settled to access incarnate content, and any subscriber meets those conditions.
The fact that the game is now free does not mean you get all the benefits of a subscriber. Going Rogue did not, even in the most extraneous way, indicate that you would have access to Incarnate content in perpetuity. In fact, absolutely everything related to Going Rogue made the opposite claim: if you stop paying you get nothing. The fact that you can now get more than nothing is not a violation of the terms of the original agreement in any logical sense.
my second account is premium and I feel I should have access to everything that I paid for, I would feel differently if it was a free account that hasn't bought anything.
oh well, I guess them's the breaks. -
Quote:oh no, I meant the post you were quotingOriginally Posted by Aneko
I'm curious about your definition of hypocrisy, since I'm not the one endangering my status by violating forum rules.
-
your reply confused me...
You needed GR in order to do Incarnate Trials
You needed a subscription to play.
Since you can play for free now, all I'm saying is that you should have access to Incarnates if you bought GR. Not gonna fight tooth and nail for this like some people, just saying. -
I'd rather have a custom title
-
still a bit much...1200 points for a single AT

I guess I'm just missing something >.>

Quote:What do you normally run on? have had different people in global channels mentioning they had to drop their difficulty because they left it on something like x3 or x8. I think the only Task Force mechanism is that Bosses will be Bosses regardless of settings and can't go below +0.Originally Posted by Captain_Photon
The thing that annoys me about the Signature Arc isn't that it's at a particular level per se; it's that it uses the Task Force mechanism to achieve this, so that it ignores my difficulty setting.
The game in general has always been like that though.Quote:That'd be fine if the default +0 difficulty actually was +0, but it's not, it's "+0, or +1 if we randomly feel like it, which you can bet we will at the absolute least convenient times and places within the mission." I'm not down with that. It's why I'm playing at -1 in the first place. It's not because I feel like beating up blue minions, it's because I don't feel like being beaten up by orange lieutenants. -
did the trial w/ my main tanker...I think I'll chalk up bad luck to the Infected Extinction War Walker...AoH was just unpleasant, spent half the time confused or dead before it died.

Quote:did it on my lvl12 Dark/Dark Blaster and my lvl14 Beam/Sonic Corrupter, took a few hits, but not very troubling.Originally Posted by Justice Blues
I could have sworn I posted about running it on my level 11 blaster. A few hit points and 2 empty slots being the only difference from being level 10. I will probably be taking all my characters through, either exemping or doing it some time between 10-20 if they haven't outleveled it. Because it doesn't take long at all and the rewards are nice.
I am certainly not going to avoid it because it is too hard.
I won't deny it can probably be problematic if you're difficulty is set too high, but that's easily fixed. -

Issue 18 was Shades of Grey, which coincided with the Going Rogue release.
Issue 19 was Alpha Strike!, which was the release of Incarnate system.All of this, if the prior agreement was that you had to have GR & a subscription to access the Incarnate System, with the game being a hybrid model now, you should be able to access the Incarnate System for just having bought GR.Quote:Originally Posted by Texarkana
There have always been 2 requirements for access to Incarnates. Having Going Rogue and subscribing.
Before Freedom, you did not have access to Incarnates if you subscribed, but did not buy Going Rogue. Conversely, if you bought Going Rogue, but did not subscribe, then you did not have access to Incarnates (or anything else).
Given that in the Freedom model you get Going Rogue access for free when you subscribe, it appears that subscribing is the only requirement, but the two requirements still stand. Therefore, owning Going Rogue, but not subscribing, means you do not have access to Incarnates (but do have access to other stuff!)
Now, do I agree with this? Not really, because of the marketing snafu that was postponing Incarnates, but that is the way it is. -
hungry now...
-
Just throwing this out there again, the EB has no ranged attacks (unless they rectified that already), so he's easy pickings for hover blasting, also, he's susceptible to knockback.
-
that was a somewhat short lived catch phrase I was using for a while
Infinity, we know drama. -
gonna have to try this on my main tank, only have taken squishies. We had more trouble wuth the infected regening war walker than AoH.

What the hell, dude. I think that weird distortion on that image just gave me a stroke.

and I wholeheartedly agree with Ironblade's explaination.
