    There is usually a central spot where groups gather to fight the spawns, which tend to only spawn in groups of players. in PI, for example, people tend to gather in the Portal Corp parking lot. In Talos, it's on the hill near the tram.

    Good fun at TT tonight. ITF on "Hard Mode", not sure of the final settings. Started off with Pali, then onto the main event. Guess my camera didn't want to get the final Romi shot.

    16gigsof memory should be great.  MORE NEVER HURTS

    I recommend using aio using 140mm fans rather than 120mm  but anything 360mm dimensions should be fine

    I don't use X3D chips  Unnecessary complication

    I may have missed it, and apologies if I have, but do you have a build for stone/staff? I haven't messed around with staff before and was wanting to give it a go.

    Never REALLY dug into Staff.

    But general Stoner builds are insanely tough.

    "Is THIS good?"

    Uh.

    YEAH!

    I listen to videos from Steve Inman.  Lots of humor, commentary from NSF stuff.  Talking about people turning tables on carjackings, theives, and people openly using violence.

    Certain phrases turn up.  Funny use of possible hero names and activities.

    BEATDOWN BUFFET

    LEADICILLIN

    EDISON MEDICINE

    With prolific use of "The Ludacris Cam" where idiots getting knocked down/run over to "Boom BLEEP!.  Get out da way"

    It's terribly violent until you realize these are POS criminals earning COMEUPPANCE, making it like Benny Hill on angel dust.
    And I'm NOT really a very "nice person" to begin with....

    Honestly, I never really was into PVP.
    As such, I refused to learn all the things making PVP distinct.
    And, even now, a few decades later?
    NOTHING HAS CHANGED TO MOTIVATE ME.

    If *YOU* happen to like it, great!
    Still not adjusting my opinions.

    hey there, Hyperstrike, i was wondering if you could post a current Inv/Fire Tank Build.  Please and Thanks.


    Sorry, my life is like trying to dodge a rainstorm in Florida in the middle of a hurricane right not.

    As soon as I have free time I'll drop something to you

    How do you feel about 'lone wolfing'?

    Truer words were never spoken;  It's one thing if the team leader is "Leading from the front" and expecting the team to keep up with them, but it's another thing entirely if someone joins the team later on and behaves like this...


    There needs to be a meeting of the minds (or the mindless in my case) so we are on the same page, because poor team coordination is the same thing as NO coordination.

    Who chained you to the floor?  If "most of the team" leaves, then leave with them.  You're not the maid.   If it's a defeat-all and the DPS squirrels are leaving stuff behind, say so.  If that has no effect then the team will get to deal with it five floors down when the little blue button fails to pop up.  Then you can tell them you told them so (this is where I'd add "you assholes" for flavoring) and then teleport your own ass out of that team. 


    Operative word: TEAM.

    Something I should ask... what other stuff is there to do in the PvP zones?  Badges?


    There are ways to get some temp powers <nukes, Shivans, etc) and badges, but the game is totally playable without them.

    I don't recall asking for one. I'm curious what you're referring to here, am I missing something? I'm specifically not asking for...


    Hence my spinal reflex to the use of the some permutation of "rebalancing".

    Along with teaming the phrase "reimagined".

    Maybe I'm being conservative and gun-shy in this instance.

    Help me out here....

    I've occasionally wondered about how feasible it would be to allow players to choose older versions of a power set, like having a "classic / pre-shutdown",  "homecoming rebalanced" and even potentially "fully reimagined" or "launch day" versions (except for maybe That One Set).

    How much time is spent maintaining Invulnerability for tankers, or Earth Control for controllers? I'd hope the answer is essentially nothing unless those powers are being re-balanced. I definitely get your point, but I would rather have a developer step in and provide this reasoning than us players. I wouldn't want a suggestion to be shot down because we're not familiar with how the engine works, you know?



    No.  You are NOT getting a "God" powerset to fap off on.

    Not happening.

    No matter how people pout and cry.

    I am sad to think you felt it necessary to "lay a trap" to make a point in a different thread.

     

    your question in this one is a valid question and the previous pages show there's some interesting thoughts - all valid - regarding it.

     

    But as others have pointed out, PVP is an active choice. When you enter a PVP zone, you are given multiple warnings that you're in such a zone, other players may attack you and you proceed at your own risk.

     

    IF Group Fly came with such a warning your trap may have some merit. But GF doesn't so your argument compares apples to oranges.

     

    Let's take the following example: A novice enters the game and does not read extensively about the various power sets or zones and doesn't engage on the forums. Shocking, I know but hypothetically possible. If that novice player enters a PVP zone they get the warning as above and has the option to continue or withdraw. Even once in the zone they might find another player attacks them and can politely ask "hey please don't attack me I'm just exploring the zone and trying to discover more about the game." The opposing player may or may not oblige.

     

    If that same player forms a team and then finds one player is using GF and it's ruining their play style - they have no knowledge of Null, remember - and says "Hey do you mind?" and their request is ignored...

     

    Both your premises require informed consent.

     

    Null is merely a safeguard to protect against people who insist on using a power that others think negatively affects them.

    Twixt?

    Is that you again?

    *BIT BUCKET*

    The only rational response....

    For the sake of argument, let’s say it is a mental health issue. What does that say about the people such as yourself who think that and proceed to hit the “reply” button? 



    Exactly what I've always said.

    I'll give you one chance to guess who the nucking futziest is...
