Why a Foundry ? For me I have two answers: 1/ Any new playable content is better than none even when 90% of it is bad. 2/ When I table top gamed I always preferred to be a GM so the idea of creating my own missions truly appeals to me and would probably keep me playing the game for a hell of a long time. I would even spend…
I have to agree the drop rate for lock boxes is ridicules if I opened every lock box that dropped I would have to be amazingly wealthy and stupid. I ran a couple of AP and kept a tally sheet on the boxes that dropped it was 52 boxes. That would be 5200 zen after just one days play muliply that by 7 for a weekly spend it…
Nepht isn't staring she is casing it out so her Super villains can rob it just to see what is hidden there. Worry when she puts on the rubber gloves .............Wait I'm stopping before I enter the realms of bad taste.:redface:
My point of view for what it is worth. Games which allow for player generated content or player created modding are given a longer shelf life. Player generated content is a very mixed bag for each well thought out playable diamond there are ten fold ill-conceived unplayable lumps of coal. In the case of CO the present dev…
A well written post my only hope is it some how finds itself on the desk of Cryptic and PWE management and that they take notice. I think this is one of the best games I have played but hate the way it's being handled of late. Please Cryptic and PWE make the changes to make this game the game it can be so we will be happy…
I can think of lots of things this game needs before SG bases yet if it doesn't take a lot of devs to do it and can be monetised we will probably get some poorly conceived half finished SG bases that nobody will want to use after they have paid for them.
My thoughts...... Churn is an effective way to run a game as it is used by most game developers so it must have some financial reason behind it being effective. It does not work when the profits are not to at least to some extent pushed back into the game. We have lost devs and had no real replacements Tumorboy was moved…
I dislike that the vehicles are more combat oriented than travel oriented why this happened I have no clue. I wish you could travel between zones with a vehicle I mean what's the point in having a plane if I can't fly to Canada. I dislike the idea of superheroes in tanks. I dislike the way grav bikes have been held back it…
Great just great. You should go into cinematography or direction in the movies I can think of a few films that could handle the moody camera angles and lighting you use. They held my attention for the whole time and to maintain the mood through out well done on both of them.
Wooooo! love the changes to power sets. I have a question is the teleport to the ren centre going to happen to every toon you log into or just the first on your account. I only need to read the tutorial pop ups once not on every character.
I just had a thought grav bikes seem to be one of the most wanted vehicles but their release has been held back. So if you want to get a vehicle for the new mission or you just want latest shiny you pay now. If you then want to get your grav bike you pay again at a later date great marketing strategy. I may be cynical but…
I'm with you on this although I will probably wait an see because I want the hover bike it will fit my toons I'm thinking of getting vehicles for much better. I still have a problem with superheroes in tanks but thats is just a personal taste thing. Heroes smash tanks up not drive them and flying tanks are just a step too…
I have a question can somebody name a superhero that uses a tank? I can name heroes that use jet bikes like Hawkeye and planes like Batman but I can't think of a hero that uses a tank. Yet Cryptic have went with a tank on the first launch of vehicles and left the jet bike on PTS. I can understand why they haven't made…
The only vehicle I wanted was the hover bike and it's coming soon just like the hideouts other rooms we are still waiting on. So I won't be buying one just now and they will get my money soon. I also hope flying toons don't have to get a hover disc for the mission as I couldn't get my head round why a flying toon would…
Wolfie charged from location to location in a rage filled frenzy joining his fellow heroes in destroying the undead menace. He clawed and bit his way through masses of undead tearing them asunder. With these things he did not have to control his rage to prevent him from killing as they were already dead. It all came to a…
I hope everyone affected is safe and well after the storm passes. I am watching the storm on the news here in the UK and I will keep my fingers crossed that everyone is safe and well.
I love people saying low levels mean a failed alert and high level toons are always wonderful. My last three alerts for example the first had a level spread of 8,12,20,21 and me at level 25 and we rocked it clearing it in good time. The next two alerts had the same two level 40's and we failed miserably with my level 25…
I didn't say all the comments were bad just the few naysayers and I also said I could understand why some of them could make comments like they did. I agree that allowing people to comment on articles is always opening you up for good and bad comments you will never make a game everybody likes. If they did we would all be…
So are you satisfied with the way things are going recently with new content promised for years but no new zones, comic series that replaced AP's that were promised to be regular that have been anything but,PvP that is terminally broken, Hideouts and Nemesis systems that feel rushed and have never reached the potential…
It is reasonable article and compared to the other QnA article it may sway some people to give CO a try. The unfortunate comments at the bottom from naysayers are not as helpful. I can give them some leeway as I don't think I would look favourably at other games if CO shut down as it is the game I favoured out of the…
As already mentioned the creatures on the first part of MI are based on the H.G.Wells book The Island of Doctor Moreau which was written in 1896. The creatures are the hideous experiments on animals not cute and cuddly furries. The next thing is on MI there are many villains that are not furry like dinosaurs, Viper,…
I think saying the latest thing in CO is vehicles and naming them when they can only be seen on PTS and what is there feels unfinished and not even what I saw people asking for. I read the posts of people asking for vehicles and got the impression people wanted things like motorbikes, cars and planes with maybe some…
I have to say if I didn't play CO and read this interview I still wouldn't be playing CO. It just sounded very lackluster and if the biggest selling point after customisation is vehicles then we really do have problems.
No thanks I have purchased a few travel powers for characters thinking I would use it for just one toon but I have used it on others I would hate to then have to go and buy it again and again. Also if this did prove popular all new TP would become like this with Cryptics current monetise everything policy I mean what's…
* A new zone ( give new players and old something new to do) * Things in the game like hideouts, the nemesis system and PvP getting finished and fixed. (To many half finished things will stop new players hanging around) * The dev team to be expanded rather than shrunk (For the game to grow we need a team to support this…
I want the whole enchilada to but Cryptic does seem to have a decided lack of devs working on this game. I'm losing hope that this game will get the broken things fixed and new content that the whole player base will want to play. What we tend to get are things they can monetise be it vehicles or lock boxes. I think PvP…
Simple answer YES if I don't need it and it cost me nothing but time I would sell it for 250 globals and not think twice. I can get all the globals I need selling junk and mods why would I need more than 250g well I suppose I could use it to buy some overpriced thing from the auction house but why bother when I can either…
I trade always using the auction house and never sell anything for more than 250 globals. This way things sell fast and silvers can buy them. If you want to sell items for more than 250 globals (you did not pay for them) it's your own greed that makes things worth more than 250 globals. I don't trade outside the auction…
I think the reason there isn't any unity in the fan base of this game is simple we are all trying to get the same small dev community to improve our little section of the game. So instead of supporting PvP and it getting what it deserves the PvE players don't want the devs top stop trying to improve their section of the…
I personally dislike become devices I want to be the hero I create not some naf cookie cutter flavour of the month thing. From what I have seen they are not over powerful and tend only to be flavour of the moth then they seem to die out. Vehicles are different I think they have been done all wrong from the 250 feet range…
Well what a waste of space in my bags lock boxes that drop like confetti that I will just toss away. Why people pay to open these things amaze me but they must make money or they wouldn't be utilised. I for one HATE even the idea of these things so I will not be spending a penny on them.
I agree with some of your points unfortunately but with a little tweaking these powers may work. Guard could help out in those rare cases when a tank does lose aggro to a spike of damage but how about rather than guarding the player it lets you take their aggro onto yourself. Rescue does let you target corpses and not…
Your wolfwere and my toon Wolfie should get together and fight crime and make a pack as Wolfie is also a wolf bitten by a werewolf. He became a werehuman and decided to fight crime so he could get access to the finer things in life like a roof over his head and good food (Steak in a pepper sauce with all the trimmings…
Funny thing thats what my wife suggested to great minds think alike. :tongue: I just had a thought you would have to stop these married couples from pvping each other and their kids as a teen rated game couldn't support in family violence. :biggrin:
No for the simple answer because I want my characters to be well mine. I don't want to be forcibly linked to any other characters. I will just use a few of my toons for example : 1/ Lifeform- a alien nanobot construct with a hive intelligence. He isn't a child he is a bunch of nanobots grouped together into a human shape.…
I quoted this because it is succinct and truthful. Neo you play the game the way you want and I won't tell you what your doing is wrong let others play it the way they want or to put it another way stop talking from your rectum.
Firstly I'm sorry to see CoH and Paragon being shut down and I feel for the gamers and the employees. My take on things is simple Paragon Studios must of had some major problems such as poor financial returns. Why well Cryptic was recently in a bad situation with Atari and Atari sold off Cryptic to sort their books out. If…
Limiting Alerts won't help PvP queues pop as CO is mostly a PvE game so you will always have more people doing Alerts than PvP. PvP has more problems than people doing PvE content lack of rewards, being almost impossible to balance and having a small amount of the player base even wanting to PvP.
/Not Signed For various reasons some already mentioned there are two problems for me the first being I don't live in a bubble and real life sometimes happens like my doorbell or my phone or my wife has to ask me something so I have to leave the alert rather than leech the alert. Secondly all you will get people doing is…
I have no problem with people making their toons huge with their devices some concepts people have are for huge toons and they can't use growth in combat so let them use it in a social space. Dueling has taken place in the centre circle of the Ren Centre since I started to play the game and they don't bother anybody. Yes…
