SB, fort, CM, shields, AM, etc. Are strictly Platonic. Plus as Nietche said "That which b00fs Slax can only make Slax stronger and kill enemies faster."

The 285 is kick*** just make sure you have 2 dedicated power connectors for each 285. Alternately the 295 is basically 2 285s on the same card for $100 more

or keeping those with multiple accounts playing.
PS What is "TOR"? -
and how they changed the ending to have Comedian come back as a zombie and eat Ozymandias' brain, I didn't see that coming.

Invuln is not as good as wp, fire or ice for PvP now.

I honestly don't see why tradable merits are such a big deal; they are redeemable for goods that are.

Pre-issue 6 or should I say pre-issue 5 is when I still felt super play this game. Now most of my toons feel like they are slightly better than a luitenent playing the game. As for as minimum effort, I never said that. I dont mind working towards a goal but at the same time the goal needs to be obtainable in a reasonable amount of time and effort for everyone not just the expert player. 8 to 12 months for single IO is just too long thats what I am saying. If you casually play your alts then chances are its going to take near that kind of time to get 200+ merits.

I remember those old days, but the new days we're actually stronger while not being stupidly overpowered.
and where are you pulling 8-12 months from? ...maybe if you never play w/ anyone I guess...
[/ QUOTE ]
200 merits is 5 Lady Greys and a Katie if that takes you 8-12 months you are to casual to have a forum account.
[/ QUOTE ]Me thinks yall dont know what casual actually is. Casual gamer wont have time to do a tf/sf/trial. You looking at 30 to 45 minutes at best for their time played a few days a week, now spread the play sessions across multiple alts. Now you see how this can end up taking months or years for IOs?
[/ QUOTE ]
A Lady Grey can be run in 45 minutes.
[/ QUOTE ]Casual gamer doesnt have many toons level 45+ if any.
[/ QUOTE ]
So then why would such a person give a poop about not being able to max out his toons? -

I will seriously try to make an awesome arc (The Slax Task force). I want to make it ridiculously hard without being tedious. Rescue 15 of Fussionette's dumber siblings is tedious. Maybe someone can pull that off in a funny way "Rescue Fussionette's stupid siblings and lead them to their doom" complete with the appropriate self-deprecating dialogue might be enjoyable. I consider it a challenge to author good, challenging content and hope the tools are there.

Positron, I am a little concerned about the possible rate griefing involved with being able to rate an arc that hasn't been played. Especially when there are badges involved in rating unrated arcs or ones that don't have many ratings. A lot of people will probably get their badges simply by going down the line of unrated arcs, slapping a 1 star rating on them, and getting their badge in the process. I've seen rating systems on web-published content experience things like that, and that's WITHOUT the enticing badge. Please reconsider allowing someone to rate an unfinished arc.
*EDIT* Been here since CoH beta, and this is the first time I've posted after a redname.

I'm willing to listen to ideas on how truly horrible content can get rated without having to endure all of it.
[/ QUOTE ]
Allow rating only if you have completed the arc, or completed at least one mission in it, OR if you have died in the arc. That way a character must at least have tried a bit before rating it.
Limit an account to making only one rating every hour. Allow them to "delay" a rating if they rate one arc, then immediately run another and finish it in 20 minutes, but don't allow them to put a rating vote more quickly than once per hour.

Considering most content will be towards the bad side of the spectrum (it's hard to write good stuff) /unsigned. -

I don't desire it. I think comments should only be seen by the mission author. When you go to write a comment, who is the target audience? The author, or other players? I'd much rather see people giving feedback to the author than to the rest of the audience.
[/ QUOTE ]
I can go either way for this. But a button allowing the player to e-mail the author with comments might be a nice thing.
On a related note -- we don't yet know if our names are going to be attached to our arcs, and if so, which name. (Character who entered the information, global name, forum account, name on our credit card...) I sort of hope global names aren't public on the system, or at least can be opted out, but it's a wait-and-see kind of thing.
[/ QUOTE ]
I assume that they'd use your @Handle if they were going to attach any name to it. It's not like those are super secret any more, what with the ability to pop the global name of any random person you pass on Paragon's streets these days.
[/ QUOTE ]
@handles never were secret, just a small QOL change made them easier to see.
