There are five lanes, it would be helpful if the devs added the green lane ovals from GGN/A/E to let pugs know where they should concentrate. The problem most teams have is people just going rogue and trying to kill everything on the map instead of chilling by the benthans and killings whatever comes within range. Try to…

Keep PVP, it is a vital testing ground.

Just wanted to drop in to say I wish I could hide threads from the main page. This guy has been here forever and is insanely boring.

The Sci pilot ship is the most fun ship in the game in my opinion. I regretted buying the rommie pack for the longest time, now I regret not buying the mega pack. Basically I own two ships, a Flambard for PR dps runs and a sci pilot that I run on all of my other toons. You will not set any dps records in it, but it will be…

I wouldn't mind if they came out and nerfed everything across the board, we all get the same toolkit to play with. What kinda pisses me off is when certain things are nerfed after I have advised people to buy them for their builds. As a player that has pretty much everything, I can easily adapt. But people who are just…

I've had other people say they have been yelled at for using GW, if use properly they are extremely welcome. Now when it comes to standard TBR or Overwhelming force...Well, lets just say that I have often talked about buying up all of the overwhelming force boxes on the exchange and deleting them.

I don't know what you are on, but it can't be legal. I have to say, it has been a wild ride watching your threads. It is kind of like a mystery, where we have to figure out if you are trolling or being serious the whole time. Every time I think I have it figured out, you throw me a curve ball.

Don't make the failure conditions a simple timer. When GGE came out, is was mathematically impossible for the vast majority of the dps league to win just because they did not meet the dps requirements to beat out the timer on the final stage. It wasn't that tanks or control builds were bad or anything, they just weren't…

Last time I actually played on my main, using full haste abilities my attacks per second were about 50%-60% of where they should be if I were not using them, and playing solo. Even with those laggy runs, I've still seen 220s several times. If people think power creep is bad now, I would hate to see the forum rage if the…

I was gonna weigh in, but this pretty much sums it up. I just wanna echo previous statements, binding everything to your spacebar is almost always a dps limiting factor and is not even close to good practice. Throwing everything on one button and mashing away generally limits you to about 30k-40k, probably not the range of…

While it would certainly be an interesting challenge, I am trying to pick some low hanging fruit here. The Pareto principle seems to apply where you get a disproportionately large benefit by fixing a relatively small number of specific problems. Asking the devs to create an additional set of pve queues above elite would be…

I've basically stopped playing all together at this point. I'll hop on ts and do a few runs with people in the late evening in an effort to hit at a low server population time, but even that is very frustrating to the point where we usually just give up after one set of runs because of crippling lag. Jumping through tons…

Promote what you love, instead of bashing what you hate. Enemies do not need to be buffed again, we just need true elite level queues for all maps. Buffing advanced level content in response to the power creep they gave us is insane and will just hurt newer and casual level players. I have no doubt that there will be a…

Invincible has been doing this to me a ton lately. It is now to the point where it doesn't work more than it does. Kinda ruins things when it has exactly one job and fails to do it, resulting in immediate death.

What we have is a small handful that either can't really be called elite or just require very high dps and contain a timegate. They just nerfed the best one, making it trivial to complete now. We have been asking for elite versions of popular queues for a long time now and would be very grateful if Cryptic would hook us up.
-
I would like the ships to come with a decent starter build so new people could get an idea of what is actually designed to work together instead of the random assortment of stuff they give now that serves only as an example of what not to do. Imagine if when you opened a ship box you got a choice between beams, cannons,…
-
I like how, with the added haste, I end up about 50% of my typical weapon attacks per second. At this point, solo content is about the only thing that plays smoothly. It kinda makes it hard to log in when you know the game will be almost unplayable. The invincible trait seems to not be working for me in laggy runs also,…
-
Elite content is not meant to be farmed by any five random people. The non-time gated elites are played, just not through queues. Elite content should take an actual elite team with coordinated tactics and specific builds.
-
That is generally the problem when nerfs are called for. People think it will slow down the people doing the most damage, but it actually hurts your average player the most. That is why I have been such an advocate of more elite content and the ability to start STFs with less than a full team. It lets everyone better…
-
We would adapt, figure out the optimal way of dealing with the challenge, and turn it into trivial content. People who are having trouble firing their weapons and using buffs at the same time will find that content impossible and come to the forums to complain.
-
Is the performance gap too wide on standardized tests? We don't want those students who are unwilling to learn to have their feelings hurt, we should probably limit how well the students who have prepared themselves can do.
-
While this exchange has been kinda fun to watch in a COPS or Judge Judy sort of way, it is equally cringe worthy. OP, basically what happened to you was you were the victim of a high dps player going pug hunting in Hive Space Normal. This is pretty much the easiest map to do this in because of the long sprint you must do…
-
We generally run most nights with one person on a main, and one to three people on a low-performance alts. The rest of the team is filled with pugs, and there is still crippling lag, rubber banding, and power activation failures all over the place. We did try running a three man ISA by making a private match and having two…

Unfortunately, this will become more of a norm than a rare occurrence. The power creep caused by the skill revamp and new specialization has allowed many more people into that 150k+ range than ever before. When these types of people try to play together, there is massive lag and not enough hitpoints to go around so pug…
-
Haha I like the comments from people who are adamant non-parsers. They wear it like a badge of honor. That is like saying you drive your car without looking at the speedometer or tac. I mean, sure you can, but it doesn't make you any better off.
-
This can be done on lower performance toons in pug queues. Once you start using a lot of powers in a more logical combinations, things grind to a stand still and the entire instance gets to do the rubber band dance. This problem is multiplied when there is more than one higher dps person in a run.

So you have multiple toons with different skill trees, congrats. How often will you be buying respecs to experiment with different builds? My point was that under the current system, when most people have locked in their skill trees, they will stay that way until something changes in the game. There is not gonna be a bunch…
-
Then we will quickly be back to the status quo. The majority of the playerbase will play it safe and either go with a very balanced skill tree or copy one from the community and then never change it again. The whole notion that this skill revamp was going to encourage build diversity and experimentation will have failed…
