Tutelary

Please add a personal base for us loners. I don't need much storage and am not looking for a huge group to play with. Just something to store a bit and maybe a single teleporter now that the 6 zone ones are available.

So, anyways, to the devs. I would pay for pre-made bases, buying larger plots, buying power and control units(80-150ea depending on capacity), storage items(80 points each), etc. I would not mind paying a $2/month license fee to use bases but am not looking to do the subscription and I don't foresee any personal spaces becoming available anytime soon, if at all. As bases stand now, they are not worth a subscription price to me but you could get me to pay more by piecemealing it various content.

I just came on here to express my wish for a base license, pre-made bases and the ability to purchase other base items and to let them know I won't subscribe and do as you are indicating to get those items. My reason for saying that is because I feel your scenario is no longer relevant because it all changes when you can add a price sticker. If they choose not to do it, then I get to keep more of my money to do other things as my current access keeps me happy enough. I thought they would like to know what Premium players are willing to pay for and here I am. /shrug

No, definitely do not agree with the diminishing returns. I think the devs simply underestimated the popularity of the LFG tool so did not take the time to add other Trials and TFs.

For me, the LFG tool simply needs more options added to it. Low level, there is no other option for easily teaming together and gaining a lot of xp. They already mentioned they will be working on it so players can still teleport to a trial from within a mission. Not that I want to give the 800 pound gorilla too much credit but in addition, I really like the design of their team up teleporter. I would love if we could designate archetypes and wait for them to fill up, then the trial begins.

I think it is one of their best additions yet and the DFB should not suffer because it is so popular. It just needs time and work to provide more options so one trial does not stand out so much in contrast.

The only thing I really miss as a Premium player is base access. Though, not enough to warrant a subscription. I'm very surprised bases were not broken down into their individual parts and placed in the market. By their design, they fit very well with microtransactions. That is unless that is something down the road and is a time-intensive task. I would definitely pay the $2/monthly like the other licenses and would probably buy individual pieces such as Control and Power items.

I would be surprised is the devs were NOT working on this because, one, it opens up even more options for sale and two, they can gauge the true interest in bases and three, that may result in upgrades so many of us have been asking about for years.

I've seen some player created bases and I think it would be really neat to hold a contest, choose the top 10 or so and sell pre-made bases on the market. Something like 4 teleporter base with 1 inspiration/enhancement/salvage for $5 and an 8 teleporter base with more storage for $10. This would be on an individual character basis not account wide.

All the reading I've done on the forums, I hardly see people mention bases when comparing VIP perks to Premium so hopefully Paragon Studios will lean more toward placing base access and items on the market rather than the selling point of VIP access.

Bare minimum: please give me the $2/month license option for bases. Thank you.

Excellent suggestion, Maestro. I plan on going Premium next month and was worried about the base upkeep. Players are nice enough to invite my alts into solo SGs so hopefully they won't mind the occasional base upkeep.

Though I have to say I think locking bases behind VIP is a mistake. By their design, they are meant for the store. I would gladly pay for a pre-built base or buy a storage/energy/control/plot upgrade item.

If they do ever sell pre-built bases, I hope they hold a contest for base builders. I would absolutely LOVE to buy some of the bases I've seen designed by players.

Maybe with some money coming directly from sales, we can finally see the 'base love' that we have gone without for so long.

Getting the servers ready for a huge influx of players? Sounds good to me. It takes as long as it takes to get it right. I'm ok with a long outage.

I bought Beam Rifle. Anything else I either didn't care about or I thought it was overpriced(I'm looking at you storage). My plan is to go premium next month since I have so many tiers unlocked and will have to seriously consider how many character slots I want to unlock. I don't mind losing server transfers, Incarnate access or story arcs. I plan to wait for the first sale before making any other major purchases.

I was trying mine out today and wonder what people think of them. Occasionally, I play on my laptop or need to keep things quiet so I got a pair of Logitech's G35 headphones. CoH sounds good but I'm wondering if I might be missing out on the 3D portion of audio. The 3D Sound setting does not highlight with these plugged in and set as the default audio playback device. Are they compatible? If so, can I enable the 3D sound setting?

Ugh, still getting "public access to this server has been disabled".

No news on Paragon Market being restored and at this time, I doubt it will be back up today. Though it is a good thing we hammered the heck out of the login process(according to Von Krieger's post) and they will have to work out a fix for such a workload.

Still waiting patiently to experience Freedom beta.
