    Hoping the costume pieces are plentiful.

    Then sell a costume set entirely unrelated in the follow week. =) Connected to free emotes of course.

    And still none of the things I want either and you don't hear my harping about it every possible opportunity ^_-

    Here we are now going to the West Side
    Weapons in hand as we go for a ride
    Some may come and some may stay
    Watching out for a sunny day
    Where there's love and darkness and my sidearm

    In game as @forgemccain

    Hopefully, the cutscene lock up bug I was having on Monday is fixed. I tried letting the Desert Disaster cutscene play tonight and had to force quit the restart the game.

    That could get quite annoying in an alert with so many unskippable cutscenes.

    It's possible that that's a problem on your end. Have you defragged your hard drive recently? It's amazing how many computer issues that can resolve.

    In City of Heroes, when someone had an issue that I'd never heard anyone else report, I'd suggest verifying their files. I've never noticed that as an option here, except Immediately following a crash, but if you have the option to verify, that might be worth trying too.

    There is a "force verify" tick in the launcher options, which are at the top of the window blending in with the rest of the blue text...sneaky bastards. And why wasn't it stated you also gave custom alerts grab-level rewards? I certainly hope it's not just Warlord, but I suppose it's a start. You people better keep with positive changes though, even minor ones.

    And still now generic Energy Blast, and it's been -- how many years has this game been out now?

    And yet, somehow, I manage to go for days without mentioning it...

    dang this was fast. They fixed the issues with this alert already?
    lordgar wrote: »

    Known Issues:

    - We fixed the persisting crowd noise bug a bit too hard. Now there's no crowd noise :biggrin:
    - There will be new costume pieces as rare loot but the items didn't make it in yet
    - The same goes for a Firewing action figure that will be rare loot if you finish all the rounds
    - Some of the gangs still say the wrong lines sometimes

    I would not be surprised if they didn't, seeing as they usually don't. I just wanted to point this out.

    lol, I had a feeling that last iteration of the build was going to be the final version. Oh well, here's hoping it runs without a hitch...

    Its possible so I'll try it. But I know the Desert Disaster cutscene has done it on my main computer even on a fresh install of both Windows and the game.

    I'll give it a shot. Though things were force verified not too long ago after some crash when I decided to not bypass it.

    let's hope we can make them remove that lvl 30 crap. seriously, isn't the main pitch they're throwing at us that this is meant to be a gladiator event where they pit the mightieist of champions against waves of creatures? there's nothing mighty about crippling your champions to make the bad guys seem stronger.

    As much as I agree with you, I cannot see that happening..at all :frown:

    I dislike the fact that you can either pay for or earn gear in this game and content is provided which by and large stops you from being able to benefit from it..seems a bit stupid to me...oh well, I'm sure there IS a reason why we cant access Scary Monster Tech..

    During my last test, PSI was the only group who had a unique line that no one else repeated or said incorrectly, namely: "Am I dreaming or is this an Astral Projection?"

    ARGENT and VIPER seemed to say the same line but it belonged to VIPER.

    Purple Gang, Dogz and a few others shared the "Don't know how we got here. But we're gonna smash your faces in." or something along those lines.

    Lunges do work, but not while flying. This is because the event has the same gravity as the Moon, like in Moonbase hideouts.

    That is not a bug, but it's the way that the low gravity affects powers.

    Will we be seeing any fixes to the costume pieces that were already released that only have one texture, and do not match?

    The devs are aware of them (thanks everyone who provided specific feedback on those). I don't know their plans for what they'll do between the end of the Forum Malvanum, now, and the start of the next story arc. This might be on their list.
