Wow, I just went back and read all of my posts I have ever made on this forum...I reported this bug 7 years ago, Oct of 2014. https://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/championsonline#/discussion/251872/force-cascade-bug I am starting to get the feeling that this game will shut down before that bug is finally fixed. I would love…
-
I'm unsure why, it looks like the only thing that was edited was my time stamp that I had in the video so you could start watching from where the bug starts rather than watching the footage before the bug. As far as I know, adding in a time stamp on a youtube video is allowed?

Well, the search function for these boards are absolutely horrible. Just putting in the word Shadow Wings pulls up nothing...which should have pulled up a ton of posts to search through. Then I tried the word shadow...same thing...nothing. With the lame functionality of the search function, that is going to be difficult.…
-
Meanwhile, Force Cascade's Form Lockout timer has been bugged for over 4 years. I guess those wings were soooo much more important. :( As far as who complained, I have no idea to be honest. I just know how these types of changes generally occur. I will try and see if I can find the complaints later. I can't see a Dev…

I'm saying this game has not updated the graphics since the game was released. So anyone playing on a rig that cannot handle these graphics, shouldn't have any right to complain about the graphics causing issues. That would be like me finding a way to play a PS4 game on a PS3, then demanding that Sony changes the games…
-
I almost let this comment slide...I was going to be the better man...but to hell with it. I'll bite... I'm not the one who demanded the change in the first place. Also, the players on these forums do not in any way represent the majority of players in game...they simply represent the most vocal players. And I am willing to…

Well then as a programmer, you should also know that if graphics alone are causing performance issues, then the performance issue is due to the lack of a PC performing. If it is causing a bug, that is different. However, if it were causing a bug, then the bug should be fixed, and not the graphics. Oh well, what is done is…
-
If your PC is not up to specs and can't handle the graphics, then it goes far beyond a complaint. I call it entitlement because you expect others to sacrifice their enjoyment of the game and the graphics of the game, because you chose not to make your computer capable of handling a game. I have seen this a million times in…
-
Well that sucks...I rather enjoyed the trail. All people had to do was adjust their max cam dist, problem solved. Never had an issue with it...ever. I guess people will complain about anything and they won't stop until they get their way. Thanks a lot complainers...
-
Well at least they have a video to go off of now. Would be nice if a Dev would chime in.
-
I sure wish I had your luck. Every play the lottery? lol
-
Okay, I made a video that clearly shows the big. It's after about the third or fourth Cascade that the bug happens. I am using nothing but Cascade and the energy builder. It ticks down to 1 second, then restarts at 7 seconds again. I keep my mouse hovered over Cascade to show the damage does not go back up after the…
-
Yes, I can make a video of it. Let me get woke up and up and moving and I'll make a quick video. I will need to respec again to do it, but I'm almost level 40 on this particular character (I have two force characters) and I'll post the vid link.
-
Hahaha, that being cheerful when defeated was funny, lol. It was like they leveled up and then cheered themselves on for it, that was a bit funny. I have also seen them sink into the ground when they died, almost as if stuck in quicksand.
-
What are you, some F'ing cheer leader? Once a follower, always a follower, eh? Gotta love Beta Males...
-
Really? Hmmmm....So you are saying (just to be clear) that the timer is wrong when it ticks back up to 8 seconds, and that the KM buff is actually back up and running after 8 seconds? TO me, it was like, any attack power at all would reset the timer, even if it was an energy builder. When I tested it, the only way I could…
-
Hell, I could only WISH it still worked that way. I could possibly work around that if it did. It would still limit my use of FC, but at least I would maintain my form and could make use of other abilities.
-
Negative Ghost Rider. It still shuts down your Energy Form. The only thing that bubble does is give you a power discount, which is nice, but doesn't work as I had hoped. If it actually did just eat the bubble without canceling out the Energy Form, it would be more tempting to pick KM up. Sadly, even with the bubble, I am…
-
I personally use Quarry. However, Quarry is 20% less damage than what you would get with KM. KM would at least put the build on par with other sets...or at least closer to it. If we could turn all those knock backs in to knock downs instead, that would also help the build. I know when I play my Tank, Force Cascade is a…
-
I have all free forms. I don't play AT's. However, about once a year I try to respec in to KM, to see if it has been fixed yet...and sure enough, the countdown on the energy cancellation debuff is still broken. So about once a year, it pi**es me off.
-
Well, bud...if you want to be complacent and be a good little fan boi and be completely docile with the bugs that never get fixed in this game, that's on you. However...don;t come in here patronizing me with your juvenile B.S. You and I both know the only reason why you are being so bold is because you have the anonymity…
-
Noticed and noted. ;)

Instead of adding more code to the existing problem, by adding more items to this event, you guys should have been trying to figure out what is causing all the lag and rubber banding and time outs ever since you initiated this event. Hopefully by adding more code to this event, you guys didn't make it even worse.
-
Wait, does Quarry not go on a cool-down? For some reason I always thought it did, which was why I was taking Unstoppable. Honestly, if Stormbringer didn't go on a cool-down, that would be my first choice. However, I seem to recall Quarry going on cool-down as well. Chances are, I am incorrect, but I just want to be sure.
-
If you make the lacking abilities viable, people wouldn't abuse Force Cascade. Bu8t if they do make them viable, sure...I would have no issues with turning it in to an Ultimate. Although if the set was made viable for DPS, there would be no reason to make it an Ultimate.
-
I do agree, unless you play Force for a Support Role, Force Cascade IMO is the ONLY ability that is worth anything in that set for DPS...all of the other abilities are just blah. This explains why nobody uses an Energy Form (well, almost nobody, I do see people use energy forms from time to time) with Force...not only does…
-
I see, okay thank you.

Sent.

However, the point being is that 15 a month has not been all that long ago. The cost of inflation would be minimal...if any at all. The 15 a month still applies in today's economy.
-
Not true at all. It wasn't all that long ago. And let's say you are 100% correct...$30 a month still does not equal the hundreds of dollars that players spend a month trying to get that one little thing they wanted out of those lock boxes. If that were true, the corporations that promote these locboxes would stop wasting…
-
> @markhawkman said: > This is true, however, without directly quoting them or giving an exact number (Too much information gives away the game I speak of) they have stated that they only need a little over 1,000 subs to keep the game running and keep it profitable. They are not in this for the money, they are in this for…
-
1. the bug. If it stops you from enjoying play, then yes, don't play. You shouldn't force yourself to play something you don't enjoy. It isn't just the bug, it is the fact that it still exists over 3 years later. But I agree with your advice. If a game stops being fun...for whatever reason...stop playing it. Very good…
-
There are actually three games (that I am aware of) on the horizon...only one of which do I financially support. I didn't want to say the name of said game, because this thread was never meant to be about those other games. This thread is not about advertising the game that I am looking forward to. I brought them up…
-
However I came off was out of frustration towards a game I once considered great. Sorry, guys...but I was here for the release of this game and had a blast...at least until PW took it from Cryptic Studios. So sorry if my post didn't come off the way you wanted it to...but I did not write it to try and make people feel warm…
-
77 posts? Chances are he might not be that active on the forums, compared to others, so that is not all that relevant. I find posting the forums is like discussing politics. I try not to post much. And this most likely applies to most people, that they have their favorite power sets. My main in City of Heroes was an…
-
Ah...here we are. Three years ago... https://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/championsonline#/discussion/251872/force-cascade-bug
-
I used to say that very same thing. That was over 3 years ago...with this same exact ability. Sorry, man...but enough is enough.
-
Good point, lol. I honestly didn't even think that through ery well, did I? Haha
-
It's not? What Superhero MMO is it better than?
-
Yeah, there are new powers that have been added on to existing power sets. Still funny though, lol.
-
As a solo player, I could see going with PFF, it is completely logical and rational. If I were a solo player, that would most certainly be my preferred option. However, I prefer to play on teams, where I depend on a good Tank to keep unwanted mobs off of me. However, since I enjoy playing on good teams, I am sure a good…
-
Exactly. Not only do you have to sit and wait for your bubble to pop, you also sacrifice DPS by not taking the other form. There is no simple fix, honestly. No matter what you do, you will sacrifice DPS do to a flawed mechanic. Right now, I am just trying to deal with it. Doesn't sound like there will be a fix any time…
-
Somebody in game told me this bug has been around for well over a year....really?
-
I was noticing today that any ability, even your energy builder resets the timer on your form debuff. That's pretty busted. :(
-
Okay, so it's not just me then. Well, now that I know I'm not alone....I am assuming this is a known issue?
-
Yes. As I know it is supposed to do that....but randomly resetting, I'm not so sure about.
-
Well, I guess I meant more D&D old school, heh. And yeah, I remember my first reaction to all the different dice, probably a lot like your dad's first reaction, haha.
-
To each their own to be sure. I guess I am just stuck in the old school way of PnP gaming. :)
-
We just started Heroes Unlimited. Small fortune spent there as well, but from what I can tell, well worth it. Very comprehensive and best of all, they use a full set of dice, not just six sided dice. I bought Champions Complete and one of the Power Books, will never use them. Spent the cash for them and am now about to…
-
We ended up going with Heroes Unlimited. We ended up going this rout because we didn't much care for the idea of only using D6 as the only method of figuring up stats and rolls. Thanks for all your help, guys.
