  1. Intriguing idea.... but I am left with one question:

    Which 'pro' is actively helping the game?

    I think that is the issue. Folks are either too entitled, or too impatient. Pick your poison, I guess.

    Not just you.

    So you can thank your fellow players who continue to break the TOS and release information. So when a set gets exposed ahead of time (thanks, pigg divers!) and ruins all the potential marketing and hype that might have gone in to it, you'll have to learn to understand why it does't get rushed to Live
    First of all, it was done via Demo Editing... probably having little to nothing to do with Piggs.

    Secondly, I doubt if that video had anything to do with it... which seems to be confirmed by Zwillinger.
  5. Wow, get off it! A powerset just got released, Staff Fighting prolly won't be out until the week after next at the earliest. A threat of leaving or whining won't help!
  6. No, actually.

    I have made it a goal of mine to use each set only once on my account... which makes creating new characters kinda rough. Let's just say, that I really need a new Armor set to come out soon. :/

    I think I went a bit overboard in quoting you when most of my comments should have been directed more broadly.

    I didn't really mean any direct malice toward you, you just happened to say a bunch of things I felt needed comment.

    Way to purposefully miss the "or so" in text you quoted.

    What is wrong with Z[willinger] saying staff fighting is going to be released on xyz date this month. I mean really the set has been ready for at least two of the four months it has been in BETA. It was more highly desired and requested over BM and they told us when that was coming, so why not staff.
    None of that has any bearing. When in the history of the game has a set's release been tied directly to desirability? Even when they gave us a survey for Melee/Armor Sets back in the day, the winners didn't get picked to be made right away. And there is no need at all to give us dates, we rarely get them for anything.

    No need to overreact but there IS a reason to react. YMMV.
    Yes, and I am reacting... just not the way you seem to want.

    That works both ways, some of us are just fine with how things are, and have a right to say so. I am very excited for Staff Fighting! I have had a character made and ready for months... MONTHS. Yet somehow I am able to remain sane about how development works for this game, I don't mean to imply that your reaction is insane, it's not... but the sentiment in this thread and others like it is less than level-headed.

    It is not cool to try to muffle your fellow players feedback, not cool at all.
    Well, if you are to be free to offer an opinion, than so are we. Why can only complaints be heard by Paragon? I would like them to know that I disagree with you and everyone else who is up in arms about Staff Fighting's release date. Whenever it comes out, I will be happy... I am just glad they made the damn set in the first place. Besides, it gives me more time to save up Points!

    But I am just pointing that out. As far as I'm concerned, your point still stands: for them to release the more highly anticipated Staff Fighting only 2 wees after Beast Mastery was highly unlikely.
    Issue 21's headstart launched on September 13, 2011... and Street Justice was open for purchase on October 4, 2011. So, yes, that isn't a full month, but it's darn close.

    Truly though, thanks for pointing that out, when I originally checked the Wiki I was looking at the BETA release for i21, which was significantly before it's actual release... So, they are a bit closer than I thought.

    How exactly have they been treating us? Have we ever in the history of the game gotten more stuff faster than right now? If you ask me, and you didn't, this is the best period the game has ever been in!
  11. I don't get what all the hate is for this? Nothing about their release of content has changed! When, since Paragon Market opened, did they ever release two paid-for Powersets within a month (assuming we are talking about VIPs here, so not sets free to them) of one another?

    What's that? They haven't? Ahh, of course.

    And while this is a Tuesday and new stuff happens on Tuesdays, it hasn't been but a week or so since the last Powerset was released. Expect Staff Fighting to drop on the 17th or 24th of this month... or maybe even next month. Even that wouldn't be too long in terms of past precedent. The fact that the set is done has ZERO bearing on any of this. For all we know, they have 37 other powersets that are done already too, that have been Closed Beta tested privately somehow... the fact that we all know about this one doesn't impact a thing.
  12. This issue has been acknowledged by a Dev, though I forget which one, and I hope that means they are looking into a change soon... at the very least, I want to be able to move all of these things that I will never use (when I get them) to the same character.

  16. On topic: these and the Demon noises are the first sounds that have ever bothered me enough to silence them.

    Yes, it is... unless you are a spoiled child or ridiculously wealthy.
  18. Five whole dollars (not including subscription). And I never would have done that, except I really needed the Halloween pack before it went away, and I was outta VIP points.

  20. How about:
    • Primary: Melee power sets
    • Secondary: Support focused pets, and a few defense powers instead of blasts

    That's called a workaround, not a fix.

    Yes, that is what I mean.

    And if it really is unlikely... then I am NOT in support of this idea. I don't plan to run the arc many times, I want to be equally rewarded for the time I already put in.

    • One's probably a proliferation; the artists won't have to do much.
    • One will work great for those who love the outdoors.
    • Spider-Man of all people had one once.
    • They tried this one once before, but it didn't work.
    • I can't think of the last one.
    On the other hand, would it kill them to make some Toxic-themed attack sets? )-:
    The reason you can't think of the last one? Because it is all in your -mind-! *wink wink, nudge nudge*

    I believe both versions of Gate Crasher may not be counting in CiT... could be wrong.
