I didn't read all of the thread, so I don't know if this has been answered, but I'm assuming we can save an unfinished arc, yes?

I.E. I'm building a super-awesome 5 mission arc, and I am currently creating the boss you need to defeat to beat the mission. Well, turns out I have to go. Can I save my first mission, what I have done to my second mission and the work I have done to the final boss?

[/ QUOTE ]
I would think it would have to save unfinished content - it just might not be playable until you finish it. Joe and Matt were saying on the interview that you could easily spend a lot of time working on a mission, writing text, etc. I hardly think they would expect a player to do all that work in one lump sum

[/ QUOTE ]

lol I would hope not. Or it would remind me of the days where folks spent hours trying to beat super mario brothers or other NES games, with NO SAVE FEATURE.

Gamers today are spoiled.

Super Mario Brothers 3 gave me my first case of BO. We REFUSED to use the whistles.

Also, your playerbase is by and large pretty mature. Telling everyone "Yes, you will be able to buy Pool A,BC,D,E and Purple Recipes as well as Randoms at the Ticket Vendor", and then at some later date deciding you don't want C and D in there, wouldn't cause the kind of chaos you seem to think it would. Especially if you just plainly stated that you use that information at your own risk, that it could change, many of us are adults here and can quite easily deal with that.


[/ QUOTE ]

Experience has demonstartated that many of us aren't that mature. Whenever the devs announce something with the caveat: It may change, and it does... well... there's alota screaming. I too would like the information, but I can accept a position where in it's better to insulate oneself from possible fallout as long as possible.

In a few weeks Beta will open up (hopefully) and we'll have all the info we need (with the standard caveats). We're just gonna have to ride out the storm of people playing havoc with the market

[/ QUOTE ]

I would like an example of this experience that has shown us. As far as I can tell none exist.

Skills system. Which got morphed into Inventions.
City Vault.

ETAs on issue updates more specific than Late Q1/Early Q2 or Summer of O9, etc.
PvE changes due to PvP.

Will the MA affect Defeat badges? If I make a mission with the Cabal, can a villian earn the defeat cabal badge?

[/ QUOTE ]

No, No.

[/ QUOTE ]

Sorry pohsyb, but you just killed any interest I had in the MA.


[/ QUOTE ]

So the other developers and red names mentioning this weeks ago didn't?

I'd be inclined to wonder if the MA missions are available cross-server and cross US/UK.

[/ QUOTE ]

The first part of your question (cross-server) is answered in the OP. (The answer is yes, btw.)

Not sure if the "arc server" will be shared between the US and UK like the market server is, though.

[/ QUOTE ]

They mentioned it using a global server. So there is a chance.

Epic thread and epic details.

Question: Can we use contacts that aren't humanoid npcs, such as the radio, television?

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm no Pohsyb, but in the Massively audio segment they specifically mentioned using the Radio as a contact (or using Television, or Slot Machine which to my knowledge isn't a normal contact!)

[/ QUOTE ]

The Slot Machine is, like the TV, an uncrackable contact. Requires the Marcone Boss family badge, 35-40, I think (or 30-35), and is found in the Golden Giza.

Very fun, worth getting the badge to run it.

How cute.

Turbo Ski got in a tizz because of the Riz/Liz Who-Is Biz.

Ooh. That mission is sort of an 'intentional failure.' I completely forgot about that one.

Also when the rewards were removed from the infamous family farms, those family bosses lost all ability to earn credit towards the Untouchable badge.

Have you bugged this ingame? Sounds like the old Portal-BP-Mask issue, and we got them to let those count

I just hope one of these pre-I14 fixes is the Dark Consumption bug. Resisting more then 60% of DC simply because I'm running Murky Cloud isn't that fun. :/

[/ QUOTE ]That sound like someone marked the wrong element resistable. Generally an easy fix, if that's what happened.

[/ QUOTE ]
Actually, I think that Murky Cloud resist End Drain, and it's apparenlty resisting the user's own power.

[/ QUOTE ]

And most self "buffs" - such as the end gained through dark consumption - are marked unresistable so that doesn't happen.

Sounds like that checkmark on Dark consumption got removed. It's basically the same problem with the build-ups being resisted by damage resistance powers.

Allow people to team for an hour or 2 for a single mini TF, then meet again next week if they choose for the next one. The whole concept of a 4+ hr TF just excludes a large portion of the playerbase, and every required hour of play has a greater chance of something coming up and someone having to leave.

[/ QUOTE ]

You don't have to run a TF all at once.

New ones are 55, 56, and 57 TA

As far as I know Red Name refers to Devs. The Devs typed this very information ON THE BADGE.

REFORMED: Once you were considered a villain, but now you walk the path of the straight and Narrow.

There is your quote.

[ QUOTE ]
Show me 1 redname quote just 1 that specifically says the the reformed badge was specifically for switching sides and I would agree. However you can't. I KNOW you can't because that quote does not exist as of this writing. Most of those other badges were acquired with exactly the same amount of metagaming so they are just as "unintended" to get.

[/ QUOTE ]

HP Lovecat

[/ QUOTE ]

Redname could also be Ex or Nivene (or any of their predecessors) as well.

But, as for the reformed badge...

Let's take Joe. Joe is a villain, bad child hood, throw on some extra cliches, and we are done. Then through some circumstance, Joe get's fused with a khelidian, ends up going hero... and thus ends up being called "reformed". And with how the game currently is, the only way to do that is to make a new character.

[ QUOTE ]
official canon goes...

Maiden Justice - Statesman's wife.

Miss Liberty - Statesman/Maiden Justice's daughter.

Ms. Liberty - Miss Liberty's daughter.

By the way, Lord Recluse is Maiden Justice's brother.

[/ QUOTE ]

Let's not forget that Stephan had dad killed after he got back from the Well Incident. As well as Marcus' brother.

Never mind that Marcus and his brother were practically siblings to Stephan and Monica... (aka Maiden Justice). (Marcus and his brother lost there parents growing up, and the Ricther's took them in. While growing up, Marcus got a pendent with a drop of water from the Fountain, which is why he knew the well was real, so did Stephan. The pendant was from a woman he helped out when he was a kid, IIRC).

Wow. I'm not getting the 60 Month Veteran Reward hotness until November.

I wonder if the tier 4 power will still require that you pick 2 before it, or if it will only require that one?

[/ QUOTE ]

There is no Tier 4.

There is the 1st Tier (Where you can pick two powers).

Then there is 2nd Tier, which requires that you have one of the 1st Tier powers and 12th level.

There there is the 3rd Tier, which requires 2 powers of 1st and 2nd Tier and 20th level.

So I'm not exactly sure how this unlock works. Does the badge allow you to unlock 2nd Tier and 6th level along with 1st Tier travel powers? And then you can get 3rd Tier at 12th Level?

[/ QUOTE ]

Actually, I think everyone I've ever talked to always refers to a power as "X tier", where X is what number it is in the set. Such as Tier 1 & 2 blasts, for a blaster, can fire through mez. We don't call them just Tier 1. So tier 1, 2, & 3 for given pool would be all but the fourth power.

As of this moment, EB, EBX, Best Buy, 7-11, pretty much none of the stores 'listed' that have CoX cards for sale have them anymore. I spoke with various stores, and they've completely stopped carrying them. Any particular reason why?

[/ QUOTE ]

Are you looking for Time Cards, or Game Cards? Local 7-11 has the latter, which is basically a boxed version you can use for a time card for $5 more (but has the 30 day jet pack)
