Back Alley Brawler is still open on the Freedom Phalanx... if you're interested.

Thousands of others feel the same way, apparently, so we are not all wrong.

I just had to point and laugh at this point a bit... If thousands of players all feel the same way about "low" population servers... what do you suppose would happen if all of them moved to, say, Liberty? Hmmmm? You'd have thousands of individuals to team with, and you'd be on a server that wouldn't be as impacted by Double XP Weekends.

[ QUOTE ]
Or, make characters not on Freedom and Virtue.

[/ QUOTE ]
This.

Hey everyone!

I'm in a pickle. and in need of help. I have this concept for a new character of mine, and deciding on a name is driving me completely nuts!

I need a name that is somewhat related to Spellborn--but more evil and menacing.

Thank you for reading this, and hopefully you can help!

I think it would help if we had a bit more to work with... Character concept? Power sets? AT? Gender?

In the mean time, I put forth: Nascent Hex

I think that is easier said than done. They would either have to create new characters with more powers and defenses to fill in gaps, or use the GM Code on all of the game enemies for use in the MA... and I don't know exactly how either of those would work in practice. Neither, seems all that easy to implement.

I wanna know why Peanut Butter M&Ms are so hard to find now. They still make them, but I can never find them when I want them.

Same with Tropical Skittles.

[/ QUOTE ]
I love PB MMs. Wait... Peacebringer Masterminds? *shrugs* Whatever.

they don't really care if it's harder to get them for some things than others.

[/ QUOTE ]
I beg to differ on this one. See: Katie Hannon TF vs. Any other TF before Merits.

Though I would like to see a version of Ninjitsu ported to Scrappers, is it really necessary to have that many Kuji-Ins? They are confusing enough as it is without having all of them again in the Scrapper set plus a new one.

That's about all I can give you as I don't know much about the numbers.

[ QUOTE ]
the devs borked their risk assessment formula for merits.

[/ QUOTE ]Merits aren't basked on risk, they're based on time.

[/ QUOTE ]
And the foregone conclusion here, though pretty obvious is:

Risk =/= Time

the damage not as good, again expected that

[/ QUOTE ]
Bwahhh?! How is that possible? Doms got pretty much an across the board damage buff?

I am a bit curious too, if that sound was changed.

STATUS REPORT!

Does this mean it comes out on the third Swednesday in Smarch?

How about a happy medium? Cut XP by 1/2 in the AE. Also, Make it so that one needs to be of a Zone's level or lower to use a given AE. That way 50s would go to PI and still be able to PL people, and lvl 1s could use the AE in Atlas to play actual content.

[/ QUOTE ]

That is horribly restrictive. The main question is...*why* should people have to play "actual content" if they don't find it enjoyable.

This smacks of trying to force other players to play the way you want them to. Rather than trying to change everyone else's playstyle, why don't you you bite the bullet and change your playstyle to fit others. If you're not willing to change, how do you expect others to. Just because you don't like something doesn't make it wrong.

[/ QUOTE ]
Who says they have to play actual content? People can still run AEs until they are blue in the face... if they are truly doing it only because the regular content bores them, than what differance does it make that they are earning less XP?

So I have to do what you want me to do so that you don't have to change? But it is objectionable that you change so that I can do what I want to do? Its a lose-lose either way.

And it is not me telling people to play like me, but rather me making a suggestion of how the Devs can cajole people into playing the game how they want people to play it (or at least how I presume they would want).

Also, me not liking something does not make it wrong, you are correct. But neither does you doing something make that thing right.

[ QUOTE ]
Did they modify any other costume pieces this issue? Seems strange to only update one.

[/ QUOTE ]
I want to say that they did... but I can't for the life of me remember which ones, or even if I'm right.

[ QUOTE ]
Oh, I'm not arguing that - I like the newer version better, personally. That distorted "rivet" (actually a dot) always drew my eye on the character I took those shots on. Not to where "I couldn't play her" or anything, but it bugged me. The newer one looks like riveted material - with actual rivets - and the under-shoulder piece (to me) makes sense. I'm not sure how it affects others costumes, though.
.
At least my part of the discussion is the whole "You look the same, now pay us INF" from moving pieces and such. (To be fair, this character would have had to pay *anyway,* as she got a new face.)

[/ QUOTE ]
For the record, I hadn't read the entire thread, I just noticed that there were a lot of pages for a rather simple thing... and that a few seemed kinda perturbed.

Also, you do realize that it is just pretend money... of which you have a limitless supply, right? Yes, it is dumb to make you pay for something you already have, but in the big picture of the game, what does a few thousand Inf really mean?

How about a happy medium? Cut XP by 1/2 in the AE. Also, Make it so that one needs to be of a Zone's level or lower to use a given AE. That way 50s would go to PI and still be able to PL people, and lvl 1s could use the AE in Atlas to play actual content.

[ QUOTE ]

The chat bug is doubtless something that they're working on but it's not a game-breaking bug so it's low priority.


[/ QUOTE ]
I really thought that this was fixed in i15?!

To the OP: Also, how is a bug from an issue or two ago an "old" bug? Are we dealing with some new kind of time here?

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
I like the new Glad shoulder, however, it doesn't quite match the one costume I've used it on for quite some time. I backed out of the creator only to find my old shoulder gone, leaving me no choice but to use the new one. Oh well.

[/ QUOTE ]

If you mean it disappeared, just zone. It did the same to me when I wanted to make sure of what I was seeing - heading from Cap to Oakes put it back.

Another gladiator pieces comparison, all in one shot.

[/ QUOTE ]
What's all the hub-bub about? The new version looks sweet, and IMO is insignificantly different.

[ QUOTE ]
Maybe they're for the Super Enhancements mentioned in the survey.

[/ QUOTE ]
One could certainly conclude as much. Of course, I love to speculate.

Default:
/cce # CCBackflip
/cce # CCSalute
/cce # CCHowl
/cce # CCEvilLaugh
/cce # CCPeacebringer (Kheldians only)
/cce # CCWarshade (Kheldians only)
/cce # CCVanguardSigil (purchased for 100 Vanguard Merits at a Vanguard Crafting Table)

From Super Booster II: Magic
/cce # CCCast
/cce # CCLightning
/cce # CCPrestoChango
/cce # CCSpin

In the forthcoming SB III: Science
/cce # CCDrinkFormula
/cce # CCSuperSerum

Edit:
For binding, you would just type:
/bind {Key} "cce # CC{EmoteName}"
Replacing {Key} for the name of a key, and {EmoteName} with the name of the costume change emote you want to use.

Edit Again:
And of course the # symbol gets replaced with the appropriate costume slot number (0 - 4).

Any empty spots are considered open. This means we are looking for a bunch more people to join the SG with alternate reality versions of the above Vindicators (it looks like the Freedom Phalanx is full).

If you are interested, shoot me or MegaMarvel a PM via the forums, or a /tell ingame via the above contact information.

Is that an offer to join us... with an Archer?

Acronym.

Anachronism is something displaced or inappropriate (such as in time).

[/ QUOTE ]

but it is displaced...well his brain seemed to be displaced in anger of something called MM.

[/ QUOTE ]It's not just displacement, it has to be chronologically displaced. Obviously it was lost while using Ouroboros

[/ QUOTE ]
All this talk of "displacement" has me thinking about Fester from the Adam's Family movie and Dr. Pinderschloss.

[ QUOTE ]
... Dude, you didn't know this?

It was the smallest state with the biggest name.

I was raised in a country that is further away from Rhode Island than outer space and yet I fricking know that.

[/ QUOTE ]
Can't say that I had ever heard of that before a few moments ago.

I too am now a member of the SG, so if you see me on before Thursday and wish to be invited, feel free to send a /tell to me in game.
