Thanks. I tried that, based on your suggestion, and went through 6 charges of the stuff in under a minute. It was a good suggestion; it just didn't work. :)
-
...and shortly after I posted the above I found that there are indeed TR 10-packs in the C-Store. *double-facepalm*
-
Resurrecting the thread, and for a reason: Many people want to spend money on this, but as beldin notes here it's being ignored. Will this minor rules violation of thread necromancy be likewise ignored, or will someone at Cryptic take me to task for it while ignoring the actual request? In STO, you've proven you can do…
-
I dunno about nerfing Cybermind, but something to help the squishier characters (like DPS and Healer ATs) so we can survive the first 2/3 of that battle. I tried this Alert yesterday, and even following Socrates' instructions I found it hard for my Soldier to stay up long enough to do much until that last segment. Bringing…
-
Yes. This has been requested for quite a long time, and it's kind of ironic that, out of Cryptic's three games, the only one that doesn't have this is the one for a genre where it's a long-standing staple. Even if our permanent sidekick is done like Nemeses -- pick a power set and customize the appearance -- it would be a…
-
113 isn't too bad; it's hardly indicative of the number of people who actually pay attention to the page. Whether to include Facebook incentives or not depends on how much Cryptic wants to increase its Facebook community.
-
Much better would simply be to update the Z-store with the oft-requested increase in Resource limit for Silvers.
-
As Silver, I'd happily pay $5 per character for this.
-
I think it would just be easier to allow Silver players to raise the Resource limit for 500 Zen, as can already be done in STO. That would revitalize the Auction House, and make money for the company.
-
One thing to add: As far as advertising goes, if the price is right I'd gladly pay to have posters for my novels on a few bus stops in Millennium City for a couple of months. Or even featured in a bookstore window.
-
Regardless of how folks feel about the top winners of the first contest, I don't think another will happen soon -- mainly because we no longer are able to attach files to our posts. Even the files attached to older posts, from before the change in board software, are gone. And it's not really convenient (or, in some cases…
-
A good point this. OTOH some advertisements of real-world business on the billboards, bus stops, and other locations in MC and VB would probably not hurt.
-
It's probably too late to request it if it isn't already planned, but I too would like to see it happen just for the silly fun of it.
-
Actually I had several ideas for Nemesis lairs, including several possible locations in each Zone. Any given Lair location would always have the same basic layout, but could be customized in decor style, colors, and such. Then a special Mission involving the Lair could be added to UNITY Overwatch, the Alert system, or the…
-
A lot of this is covered in my Arch-Nemesis suggestion thread (the link to which should be in my sig).
-
I definitely would love to see this, even if the devs added only one story arc at a time every couple of months. Also a short story arc featuring Bokor Kulev and his situation with the Sovereign Sons would be kind of cool.
-
I believe you. However, that doesn't mean that it won't be done that way in the end.
-
I'll endorse this -- as long as it's in the C-Store, Q-Store, or someplace similar and not in Grab Bags, Lock Boxes, and such. (I wanted to buy the old Arms Crafted Costume Unlocks, but unless something's changed they're only available at random through the Drifter Salvage Store. I find that unacceptable.)
-
Similarly, I've formulated a few ideas using factions that don't really get enough attention in the game (in part to make it easier for people to earn the "defeat 5000" Perks). :)
-
The devs have already said that they want to bring the Foundry to CO, and are working (little by little) to make it happen. I expect the effort will accelerate once Neverwinter is fully active, and its Foundry features have been moved to STO. In short, if we don't have a Foundry in CO by year's end, I'll be surprised, and…
-
Also, I've mentioned several times that several of the items in the smaller room could be used in the main part of the Basement (and probably in other Hideout types too; I only have the Basement at present). After all, they've already been built, and so are in the game; they might as well become available.
-
In STO it costs 500 Zen (=$5), and affects all characters on the account. That seems just right to me, or maybe even a little low. If it became available, I'd buy it right away.
-
More of a "vicious cycle."
-
The simple way of handling the over-appearance of generic Nemeses is something that's been requested before: if there's at least one person in the group with an active Nemesis, then one of those Nemeses is used. The requirement that a minimum amount must be contributed to get the reward (say, 5% of the overall damage,…
-
Work on this game has slowed to a trickle, even while STO has gotten a good deal of new areas in the past year or so (Fleet bases, New Romulus, and other stuff) and even earned an award recently as Best Free MMO. Meanwhile, massive resources have been poured into getting NWO ready for release later this year. And during…
-
There are a couple of items in the AH that I'd like to buy, that cost as much as 1000G. There are also a few items in my Inventory that I'd like to sell that others are selling for 350G or more, and I'd rather not undercut by limiting it to 200G (allowing me to carry around up to 50G at a time).
-
This has been requested repeatedly, and I've put /signed to it every time. In STO we can spend Zen on a limit increase, and I've done so. Why not here?
-
Nice ideas IMO, particularly the Elemental Mods. (Could something be devised for other damage types, such as Sonic, Particle, Psychic, or Mystical?)
-
If there are new emotes, I'd most like to see two new Dance emotes: Macarena, and Gangnam Style. :D
-
STO allows us to buy a cap increase for our characters' cash reserves; I've made that purchase. I can think of no reason that the same couldn't be done here in CO. One of my characters currently has at least two items in the Bank that could be sold at the Auction House for well over that 250G limit. And I've accumulated…
-
I go into some of this in the Arch-Nemesis suggestions (see my sig).
-
This is working fine in STO. I can think of no reason it can't work here.
-
Actually, if the Alert actually starts before it rotates out, it lets you finish. If it rotates out before it becomes Active, then it kicks everyone. But this is something that needs to be fixed. As a different but related bug, I've had too often where I see the sign-in for the Alert pop up and then disappear, and then…
-
Yes, I agree -- the extra slots could be put in the same place as FFs have their extra Builds, to help make up for ATs not having Builds (in the same way that ATs have fewer Powers but higher Characteristics).
-
This has been requested before, and I'm totally in favor of it. Perhaps we can just have five more for noncombat Devices using Ctrl-Alt-1 through 5.
-
The ability to make a video of our characters' activities would be awesome. I'd definitely post some of my CO action to help promote the game.
-
I don't think copyright violation issues was the reason these were removed, anyway. They vanished at the same time that the board and website software was changed. That suggests that it was just a matter of functionality. What we're asking for here is a return of this particular function.
-
I see the same thing when I'm in Millennium City (I've tended to keep my main character in Vibora Bay). Sadly, most of those are for Questionite only, meaning that everyone bails after the Nemeses are defeated and they don't bother with battling Shadow Destroyer. For me, if I'm going to start something I'd rather go to the…
-
Regarding characters that are copyright/trademark violations: This should be fairly simple to solve (though IANAL). 1) Include a paragraph in the EULA (if it's not already there) to the effect that players are solely responsible for any such violations that they commit. 2) Include a paragraph on each character (and…
-
Most of them are just protecting their territory from flying, leaping, and otherwise vertically mobile superheroes and rivals. I'd rather they were there than on the sidewalks.
-
Yeah, me too. What I especially loved was the ability to edit our character biographies. (I'd also love to see links on each of these to similar pages for our Nemeses, with the same ability.)
-
Just as destroyed objects presently re-form (well, most of them, anyway; cars and patio furniture in Vibora Bay stays gone until the next maintenance), the damage done in this way would "heal" after a few minutes. But I do think this would be a good idea, if it's possible. At any rate it should do a little extra damage if…
-
Yes, please -- especially polka dots.
-
Just having some "Save a Citizen" Missions that Level 40s can do in MC, Canada, and maybe Vibora Bay would be a great new bit of variety. It doesn't matter to me whether they're scaled versions of some that already exist, or new ones specifically for that level.
-
This would be helped quite a bit if there were just some decent consumables for the lower levels. The HOT Bots at the UNTIL level are good to have, though I don't go through them as quickly as I earn UNTIL Recognition; the SC level Summons have a lot of promise, though. The best things I can find at the MCPD and PRIMUS…
-
I could certainly see a new MC Sewers Zone. It would be a relatively simple thing to put together, and most of the existing Missions that go into the Sewers (along with a couple of the Missions that interfere with wandering around town, or don't seem fitting to the surface setting) could be simply transferred down there.…
-
Aside from a short-term lack of funds, this is the main barrier to me buying a Vehicle.
-
Personally I'd rather see them built from Archetypes. But I think this would work too, as long as it's not built the way beldin describes.
-
If the money is diverted to NWO, then how will they fulfill the promised rewards for the Kickstarter? If I back it for $10 and expect to get four Foundry slots when it launches, there had darn well better be four Foundry slots within a reasonable time after the fulfillment. To take money and not deliver product is very bad…

I assume you mean "Vehicle"?
