Thats a tough one, it's either my Dark/Thermal Corruptor because he was my first ever character and after about 9 months of altitis I dinged 50
At the moment though, it's probably my Kat/WP Scrapper, Aristocras, I just love playing him to bits!
Tbh I really can't decide, I love all my characters for different reasons

Happy birthday, Xemulas

I'm pretty sure that you can already pay through paypal, not sure about Maestro though.

how about a compromise solution ?

you can set rooms in your base to be publicly accessible (to set any area other than the TP room as public, you have to have a path available to the main base entrance or TP room so players dont get trapped).

any corridors or rooms bordering the public area suddenly grow doors that only allow SG members to pass (public can look in as a sg member goes through but they cant pass the threshold).

this way, the base is shown to the general public, can be a useful transit/hospital point and the Sg still has areas for SG use only!

Personally, I would favor: locked out of the MA until you have at least 1 level 20.

[/ QUOTE ]

But then that would temporarily restrict one of the newest selling points for this game? Isn't the point of the Architect Edition (Correct me if I'm wrong) to highlight that the game has a mission creator? Now, someone goes to buy that and finds out they can't use it they have a level 20.
Personally I think we should be allowed to create and test arcs without level restrictions but shouldn't be allowed to play arcs until after completing an arc from a contact (The Studio Instructor could be used for this and could give the tutorial after the arc)
This way people can contribute content to the community but they would only have to do a short arc to unlock the playable function of the MA whilst enjoying the normal content.

It can be pretty annoying when you've put a lot of hard work sprucing up your base only to have a select group of people see it.
Would also save people the hassle of traveling to so many contacts for one mission blueside

I love it! /SIGNED!
It would be a really good idea, especially for those (like me) who love base building but can never start a proper SG without it going up in flames.

17th Century Cossie bits would be good too, they'd be sooooo good for looking like a pirate!

It would also be nice to have different hair options with some of the hats and helmets too.

[/ QUOTE ]

Or add a hair slider, and make it so that you could choose any hat to fit on any hair, and then tweak the hair with the sliders until it was hidden by the hat.

[/ QUOTE ]

Hair sliders for hats would be brillaint! Stops you from female characters looking like a bit of a tool

What about a teleport clickie in the starting zones, that would take you to the MA buildings in the "second level" zones?
That way, level 1s could get there with no problems, but they'd need to find out about it first from a contact in the starting zone.

[/ QUOTE ]

That would be a good idea, it means they don't start farming from lvl 1 and it gets rid of the LFF spams on Broadcast

Since when does taking a train level you up? You can go straight from the starting point to the station/to King's Row and run towards the MA without getting a single xp point.

[/ QUOTE ]

The point is, you have to do something in the game world before you can level up. If you are a villain that something would probably involve repeated trips back to the hospital or a very long swim all the way around the coast of Mercy Island.

And they point is, only an experienced player would know where to go, and Positron's intention was that a new player would be able to level entirely using MA; not an experienced one who already knew thier way around.

So to remove the MA buildings from the starter zones would require a fundemental change of policy.

[/ QUOTE ]

Im pretty sure thats not going to be 'omfgEndofTehWorldlololroflcopter!!11' or anything that horribly drastic.

But if the Devs are serious about cutting down on farming, or in fact saving the starting levels on Blueside, then it would *probably* be a good idea. After all, they changed policy on the 90 odd badges in MA.

Anyway, if a little walk kills people, they should probably be playing a different game. Like, Iunno, Tetris

[/ QUOTE ]

Can't PL in Tetris though and those higher lvls do get pretty tricky

What I don't understand is people complaining that a broken power is fixed and that the Devs levelled the playing field. Also, they want people to pick other powers bar Psi, which everyone chose because of the borked power (PSW)

There'll be more congo lines

It was fairly random.. And a bit all over the place

I whole-heartedly agree with this, their teams are really fun and friendly (And I'm not just saying that because I'm a member )

I'd love that, I hate them and kill them with glee, yea I know we are supposed to arrest them, but you know accidents happen when you're so high up

[/ QUOTE ]

Especially in Founders Falls. Those waterways can be deadly

I was afraid you'd be thinking "Who is this person and why is he sending me random tells?"
By the way, those arc promotions could be helpful

Pretty random
Saw you in Atlas yesterday btw.. Just thought I'd add that in on the topic of randomness

IMO adding a second floor to bases would increase the creativity and help inspire people

Every knows that spandex is durable otherwise it wouldn't be used

The AE buildings are in the starter zone because the philosphy behind the MA was to create an alternative way of leveling from 1-50.

So the suggestion should actually be: "change the philosophy behind MA, and don't expect players to be able to level from 1-50 without playing game content outside the MA".

[/ QUOTE ]

Not really.
If they want to level from 1-50 in MA, and really want it that way, its only a yellow line trip to Kings Row. Not that hard, is it?

[/ QUOTE ]

It would still mean you wouldn't be able to level from 1-50 entierly within the MA, since you would also have to take a train journey and zone.

And for villains, the journey from Fort Darwin to Port Oakes MA is actually quite difficult and dangrous at level 1.


I'm not saying that the buildings shouldn't be removed though, just that the policy should be changed.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well you can hardly say that it is intended as an alternative way to lvl from "X"-50 without putting a level cap on it and restricting one of the unqiue selling points in the world of MMO's, but if the cap was 5 then it would only take about a day.
IMO I think we shouldn't be able to run MA arcs in the starter zone buildings but be able to create content in them.
