....boombox >_<

^Title. The game has a number of bangers that can be used as additional jukebox music choices: Rikti mothership area, Studio 55, the middle of Recluse'sVictory, etc. Would be nice to be able to play those on demand! EDIT: I meant to say "boombox", but i had a case of t3h dumb when typing this

So, two things. First, using TK on sleeping foes wakes them up, even though it doesn't damage them. Hard to tell if it works this way on Live since it's a hold. Second, when I get held, TK stays active. I feel like that probably shouldn't be the case.

I mean, honestly, maybe the best thing to do is have the currency be invisible, like some tracking badges. The more of it you have, the higher chance you get a pet drop or a Prismatic Aether. Once that happens, the currency is spent, and you're back to the default chance. This removes currency bloat, but rewards people for continuing to engage in GM hunts by giving them a higher chance at an eventual reward. And players are none the wiser, with no additional currency mucking up their salvage window. Just an idea to help "meet in the middle", I don't really care about the extra currency

But either way it should probably mention the auto-shutdown, and include a note about the Levitate combo 😃

That's not what i see? Unless they already fixed it? (Note, this is the Controller version; maybe dom or epic version is different?)

The main patch notes read: When your Telekinesis is active, your use of levitate on a telekinesis-anchored foe will cause your levitate to hit in an AoE and your telekinesis power will be deactivated. But the blurb up top of changes between builds doesn't mention this shut-down. Mind Control > Levitate: Using this power on the main target of your Telekinesis toggle, will cause it to spread its effect, damaging multiple enemies In-game, the shut down doesn't occur. What's the intended effect? (for the record I prefer it to NOT shut down TK, it already does so on a short timer and long recharge, but I'm honestly already over the moon about this so w/e) Also, the AoE damage splash is about a half second to a second delayed past the main damage. Is this also intended?

I mean ok, TK deactivating after isn't ideal, but I'll take it! (also sorry for the doublepost, the forums thought I was being obnoxious -cuz I was- and wouldn't let me type anymore after the second emoji)

*gaaaaaassssssp!* 🎵 Some people wait a life-time... FOR A MOOMMMEEENNT LIIIKE THIIIIIISSSSS!!!!! 🎆

I would also love this! That said. There's a huge technical hurdle to achieving this. The "easiest" way would be to just have an inanimate NPC, but that data currently isn't saved in bases (which is why npc civvies always look different). I think the devs have expressed interest in fixing this, so maybe maniquins wouldn't be far behind. The hard/inefficient way would probably be to have EVERY costume part available as a base item, to place how you want. And of course there would need to be three of each, one for each body type. And have fun finding and placing the pieces you want with this clunky-arse editor! So again, not saying I don't want this, but I feel like with the amount of work it would take, maybe we shouldn't hold our breath =(

That's an in-game setting, under "experimental"

Well, that's the thing. For general content, it's fine. Get on a team, summon your pets, use your holds, leverage your secondary, and you'll do well. When people say it's not good, it's because no, you won't be able to solo a +4/x8 map in record time (or maybe at all) or solo a Pylon, or defeat Tyrant with only 3 other players, or achieve any other ridiculous stunts that honestly NO ONE should be able to do...But it'll get you through the rest of the game the way its meant to be played.

I mean, I don't think I'd wanna be THAT guy: "Oh yeah, I'm just gonna hang out near all these giant monsters who want to eradicate humanity. By myself. Except for the 1 hour a day where a bunch of heroes show up for the EXPRESS PURPOSE of antagonizing the Hamidon. Just because some of them want to be able change the color of thier underwear while waiting for the eldrich abomination to arise. Sure. I'll get RIGHT on that!" Rp/in-universe logic aside, I'd still like something like this, too =)

GG on the win!

Since we're making changes to APPs, I don't suppose the Psi-Nexus pet could replace World of Confusion in Controller Psi Mastery? Asking for my otherwise-petless Mind Controller. (Yeah yeah, I already know the answer is "no" ;_; ) Also not a huge fan of the Psinado changes, but in practice it's not too bad (the area nerf would be a problem, but TK solves that for me now so it evens out).

Bah! He's soft on crime, his government is an argument away from completely dismanteling itself, and he lacks the political will to reclaim the vast nuclear arsenal that HE LOST CONTROL OF. On the other hand, his laise-faire policies have allowed unprecidented scientific research to unfold from both Crey Corp and Aeon Corp, he has a surprisingly permissive attitude towards protestors, and his litte "haven" for so-called "villains" helps keep them out of actual civilized society (most of the time). So, okay, I guess he wouldn't be TOO bad...

... So what you're saying is we need to stop casting Barrier so much. OMG incarnate nerfs incoming!! But no, for realsies, thanks for the info and heads up =)

I mean, doing more damage in situations where I wouldn't be getting Containment sounds nice... but then again, seeing TWO orange numbers pop up over a baddie's head makes my brain make the happy juice. So, I'm torn.

Just send the GMs a support ticket (either ingame, or there's a button on top of the forums), and they'll usually get you squared away within a day or so.

I wonder if, instead of requiring "roles" (some of which are arbitrarily assigned... MMs and their buff/debuff modifier of 0.5 as "support", lol), the system just checks for at least 5 different ATs. That would alleviate some of the concerns listed here, and not "pigeonhole" villains into the "wrong AT" or over-favor EATs.

-derwall? ... I SAID MAAAAYBEEEEEE!

Y'all ain't very bright, are ya?

I'm just gonna throw something out here, which hopefully won't be too controversial. The contact system for redside SUCKS. You have to do paper missions to be intro'd to new contacts. If you don't, you're screwed. Some contacts you can just walk right up to, but most will be like "I don't know you, why are you talking to me", and that's assuming you can even find them on your own. Just recently, I did Vincent Ross's arc for the first time in years, and it kept mentioning talking to different contacts or factions. WHAT different contacts or factions?! I was never introduced to anyone! I found Ross by accident! And it felt really shitty to see those unusable radios at the start of most of the missions, knowing I was missing out on something. There's the Find Contact button, but it just keeps pointing me at Night Ward content. It barely points me at any mainline content (unless it came after issue 22 or so, it seems). Also, I'm playing a Soldier of Arachnos for the first time, and the "kill a boss" mission every five levels is... REALLY underwhelming. There's barely any story there, and the contact has the personality of a coardboard box. So, if anything, fix contacts being locked behind paper missions, and make them ALL appear on the contact finder, and that'll be an improvement in my book.

I think it would help if we were told the intention of the system. Is it to actively encourage having multiple different ATs on a team, or is it just a cute little acknowledgment of a happy accident? If its the former, reward needs to go up. The latter? It's fine, IMO.
