Quote:Still implying it's broken ... May I suggest other terminology like changed, edited, improvedSo basically this whole snarky thread shows us 2 things:
1. Many people would like to have travel powers suppress instead of detoggle (myself included, I very likely won't buy any until this is "fixed")
2. This forum isn't much different than any other.. most posters mean well, but come off as complete jerks...
btw, Forbin just because you were actually right in this case doesn't mean you didn't come off looking like a jerk (at least to this neutral observer).
Would go a long way in ending the snark. -
Isn't a more applicable example: You're a salesman that shares profit with a group. When one of you make a sale you all make some money. But, if you work at making a sale, but a customer makes the sale, you get nothing.
I don't like the chance that I won't get anything. That's why I've never mad ill troller.
Also, if the customer has any part of the sale process, he also gets a cut, it may be smaller, but it's still a cut that goes no where.
Too risky for me ... I'm bad at last hit concepts. -
Quote:The second ... which is attacks without confuse. If they(enemies) get the last hit you get no XP at all ... correct?Confuse doesn't take away any XP. Consider this:
Some guy walks up to you and hands you a dollar. An hour later, he does it again. He continues coming up and handing you a dollar every hour, on the hour all day.
The next day, he walks up to you and hands you 75 cents. Half an hour later, he comes back and gives you 75 cents again. All day, he shows up on every hour and every half hour and gives you 75 cents each time.
Which would you prefer?
In any case. I'll let the Dev's deside, if they make it, whether they want to put a confuse. You're more that welcome to put in your vote and concept like this
base counter minor damage stun
Asubdue: hold
Bunbalance: moderate damage KD
Cdeflect: foe confuse -
LOL ... rocket board+hurl bolder=hurl rocket board
-
Quote:I'm with you ... The detoggle is annoying.This sums it up for me as well. If they suppressed toggles, I would buy every single one of these powers the moment they hit the store.
(if memory serves)All status effects used to detoggle powers, and the Dev's changed that. Why can't they change it for the travel powers ... This is in NO way me agreeing with attacking from said travel power. Just that all SELF effecting toggles should remain active and even give their respective buffs. -
Quote:So, you're requesting that every time you stop to attack you have to toggle your powers on ... then when you start moving again, they detoggle again ... talk about toggle hell. Not to mention being locked into a fight to the finish ... forget trying to escape, you'll definatally die.Have you explored the option of having rocketboard use the same stance as the combat stance or the neutral stance when you are just hovering and only have it shift to the stance it has now when you are moving? That should allow you to use all of your attacks without breaking animations.
Sounds like a bad idea.
And the "silver surfer rides a board" reason doesn't work ... because he's a blaster and everyone can get the powers in question, and not everyone is a blaster. Aladin is a melee person ... did you ever see him fight while on the magic carpet?!? -
Quote:Ok ...Wade killed him.
You were standing around picking your nose, like me, and her....and him... and that guy over there. *points*
Meeting Villian buddies in the bar ...
Me: "Look guys, Statesmans boot, I kill him. Isn't that cool"
Bar: "HAHAHHA"
Bar goer: "GJ killer HAHAHA"
Me: "I did help ... really ... they said they couldn't have done it without me ... I know Recluse" *walks away sulking muttering to self* "I was instrumental in his death" *Looks at boot with weary eyes* ... *sigh* -
Quote:Would this mean the mitigation would bypass the purple patch since it would be a proc on self for the enemies?!? Kinda like bruise is a self -20% res.effectively granting enemies a proc to knockdown self when they attack?
I considered the confuse aspect ... but I'd rather not touch anything that takes XP away from me.
Info from game geniuses on what 3 mitigations are not resistable by any given enemy group. I.E. What 3 mitigations would be best to pick. -
Quote:As a hero/villain, his death doesn't happen till we are already 50ish ... so that wouldn't make much sence.I vote that all characters cannot wear helmets till level 40 as a sign of respect.
... Wait!
But if that was the case, Villian would HAVE to wear a statesman helmet till 40 :P Kidding. -
Before you read ... Recognize the names are just that ... names and would be worded how Dev's choose should they choose the idea. Please put types of feedback in separate paragraphs. Please no critisizing unless you're going to add helpful alternatives. Thanks For reading ... enjoy.
Defensive set: counter strike
The concept is that in the process of blocking attacks you take advantage of weaknesses and counter attack.
Basic Counter has a minor smashing damage with a stun effect mag 1.
CtC means Chance to Ccounter strike
1 Combat readiness: [toggle] def melee 10% CtC
2 Evasive maneuvers: [toggle] def ranged 10% CtC
3 Combat awareness: [toggle] PBAoE +def all foe -dam
4 Battle tested: [auto] status resistance 20 recharge buff 10% CtC
5 Counter:
A subdue: hold
B unbalace: KD Moderate damage
C psych: -toHit fear
6 Chi regen: [click] self HoT = 35% over 10 sec, CtC buff 50% for 10 sec buffs mag to 5 for 5 sec
7 Fast feet: [toggle] def AoE 10% CtC
8 Desensitize: S/L res 10% CtC
9 Heat of Battle: 60% res 50% recharge buff constant HoT of 5% health every sec Def debuff protection at 100%
Lasts 30 sec, has a 75% end drain on crash.
Set weaknesses: No KB protection, no def debuff protection accept in T-9, and low resistance.
These weaknesses are made up for in Mitigation ability. -
Quote:I don't know why I even post on the topic ... I wouldn't use them anyway. LOLHadn't even thought of the paying for extra ones per character, That would cause even more screaming and rage quitting. not that I don't get a laugh from rage quitting threads.
Me too (rage quitting) ... They are so much fun. I enjoy saying nice things to them, which just makes them more mad. (like my EX wife) LOL
Me: "I'm on your side dude. I can't stand this issue either"
Them: "Shut up dude ... I didn't ask you"
Me: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ... You posted here ... So you did. and More laughs." -
-
Quote:I don't see why not ... as long as they are willing to pay for it. I would only pay for one. Additional ones would be more.
Please let's not bring up the global/multi server issue cuz the first thing that will happen is people will start screaming about how each character deserves a different looking global apartment.
In any case. They, most likely, won't do it anyway. So, doesn't matter. -
Quote:This would be the best solution ... Gives options for RPers, and changes nothing for other gamers.Wouldn't it be possible to do this by treating the housing like mission maps? If they make 20 or so very small maps that are each done up to look like a house or apartment and let players pick one to be where their characters lives, that wouldn't take up too much space on the servers, would it?
Do the "rent an apartment" mission. Hunt for what you can afford ... blah blah blah
Sounds like RPing fun. -
Quote:It would have it's own sever ... when you're inside your apartment, It's just you a citizen of CoH/V.And which server do you suggest the devs dedicate to that feature? Virtue? Freedom? Oh maybe make it a VIP feature and use Exalted.
Of course you realize how many paying customers it would piss off if they only added the feature to one server right? Because when the devs are talking about "server storage space" they mean Virtue, Freedom, Pinnacle, etc.
You would select a building in any city to be your apartment building, when you click the door to it, you move to the apartment/house server. (I would be fine with it being a global apartment too ... all toons/servers connect to it.) -
Made changes ... let me know what you think
-
-
The option to choose a red band instead I accept ... But if I was a villian ... I would want to show the world that I defeated Statesman. Maybe an emote that has me whipping out his cape or showing his helmet off. But, I would want something. Nearly ALL villians get caught because they can't help but tell someone about the success.
-
Quote:I Don't see a problem with them making a dedicated server for those that would like this feature ... They could tack on an additional Monthly cost for it. I wouldn't assume the price, but $5 seems acceptable to me. If it was functional I might even join the band wagon ... as long as there were pre-made options. Designing a base is why I never made a base.According to a response in the Freedom Friday Facebook posting a couple weeks ago, the issue with player housing is server storage space. Each player apartment would take up comparable room to a base, but instead of having one for almost every Supergroup, you'd have one for almost every player.
I don't think I've ever seen a definitive "No", but I've seen several firm redname responses that basically boiled down to "Don't hold your breath".
I wouldn't complain about housing becoming an option though. -
Defensive set: Vampiric Defense ("Vampiric" is just a word to infuse a viual concept, not a final name.) please respond as such.
I've always felt that Vampires were more resistance based because they tend to let their foe hit them and then just smile and take the health back by way of drinking their blood (life steal)
1 Life steal: [toggle] 10% (can be changed to not be OP) of all damage done returns as a self-heal. The only coding (I imagine) this would take is a check on what damage was dealt by player, then the heal %. It's not like fiery Embrace, it has no effect on indevidual powers. This power would be less effective against res based opponents.
2 Unbreakable: [auto] res s/l/c/e
3 Old soul: [auto]status resistance, res s/l/n/psy (special: 50% of psy damage taken is returned to attacker.)
4 Healthy fear: [toggle] def s/l/f fear res
5 Dark will: [Toggle] PBAoE minor psy damage -regen confuse
6 Wisdom of ages: [toggle] def s/l/f confuse res
7 Mental awareness: [toggle] PBAoE team +perception, res confuse, res psy, def fire
8 Impervious skin: [auto] res s/l/c/e/n/toxic
9 Feeding frenzy: [click] PBAoE def all(per target), res all(per target), regen(per target), recovery(per target), DoT damage. Crash: -50% end/health
1 is something I think would be fun.
Pls: comment on concept and practicality in 2 separate thoughts/paragraphs if possible.
No comments on "names" unless you have a replacement recommendation.
The final numbersfor tank
s/l def: about 10%
fire def: about 25%
s/l res: about 75%
c/n/e res: about 50%
toxic res: about 40%
How's the new concept? -
Quote:Which is why I don't own a dog ... and wish I could delete my [vet]Mechman, etc, pet from my e-mail, perminantly.As for the benefit to non-RPers, who cares nobody would force you to buy one. Would be just anther the to waste real money and INF on. Same could be said for the Dog pet, yet the NCSoft made them
I might buy a puppy though ... would fit my toons size. The dogs are almost bigger then all of them. -

Quote:Good point ... hadn't though about that. :PThat does not prevent us from miss-clicking the first power in the tray and changing the tray instead.
We want the arrows on the left side of the tray to be disabled on command.
I've only have the "changing trays while typing" issue ... along with the "auto-run into mob while typing" LOL
more /signed now -
Can't you just go into options>key mapping> and just remove the key that is bound to changing the tray number? isn't it a [ I think, or maybe it's currently set for </>

What would be the NON RPers benefit from having an apartment?
