Auto kick out of mission AFK players at the end of mission
Rudra replied to DrRocket's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
I have never encountered this mechanic. Anyone willing to enlighten me? -
"In the old days", Scrappers and Tankers both got click powers and toggles. It depended on the power set. So what are you talking about? Also: Tankers toggles got dropped but Scrapper toggles didn't? Toggles are toggles regardless of what AT may be using it. So again, what are you talking about? The advantage of a click defensive power over a toggle defensive power is that you can stack them. You can't stack your toggles because they are either on or off. Click powers have their duration and if you can trigger it again during that duration, you get double the effect. (Edit: Except for those powers that replace their effect rather than stack....)

There is a difference between asking for something new or asking for a change to something that already exists as opposed to asking for what we already have to be duplicated for the sake of a name. Even Katana and Broadsword are not duplicates of each other. One is a two-handed weapon approach and the other is a one-handed. As opposed to asking for a way to make something we already do in game. Edit: Now if you were asking for a new version with a different style? Then I would agree with you. Just asking to be able to make one-piece swimsuits for females though? We already can.
-
Yes. If the game gets confused and tries to generate doors for more than one character, it will typically try to do that for all the characters. So say you're on a team of 8 with all 4 alignments equally represented. You wouldn't get 4 door choices, you would get 8 because the game has its version of a mental breakdown.

Female bathing suit bottom: Bikini or athletics shorts under Bottoms with Skin depending on what you are going for. Female bathing suit top: BIkini, strapless, or whatever else completes the look you are looking for. (Edit: Unless you want a wetsuit. Then you just use tights for the top and bottom.) You know what adding Bathing Suit Bottom and Bathing Suit Top would do? Duplicate what we already have. It isn't a pretty chunky kludge, it is how the game is designed. You take the elements the game has and you combine them to make what you want. Edit again: Take Strapless from the Tops with Skin for instance. What is it? Well, if paired with the bikini bottom, it is a strapless one-piece swimsuit. Paired with a skirt, it is a strapless dress. Paired with pants, it's a strapless top worn with pants or a strapless bodysuit with pants worn over it. What about Cybertech? Well, now you have a cybertech swimsuit, dress, or other outfit. Take your pick. Tank top? You have a tank top style one-piece swimsuit, or you are wearing a tank top shirt with your skirt or pants. Make what you want rather than expect the devs to make it for you.

It can if the game breaks for one member having a conflicting alignment. At which point the game can then just do so for everyone involved. Not saying it did, just that it can.

And asked for those specific powers and that specific damage type. And fails to have punctuation and the correspoding capitalization in the same manner. Makes the exact same arguments. Posts multiple pictures without explanation in the same way. And gee.... (Edit: Oh yeah, and wants new damage type that has no resistances in the game, And calls for adding secondaries to paired with damage exactly like it already is in multiple powers sets that already exist like it doing -DEF as well as its damage just like Radiation Blast does. Or attacks that drain resources like how Electrical Blast does. Wants the magic set to ignore target armor just like KingCedd03 does. Using debilitation and status effects to control the battle like other sets do. Wants gravity and time powers as if they don't already exist, calling it the province of magic just like KingCedd03 does. How long should I make this list anyway?) (Edit again: I mean, I know @Luminara said that people have distinctive writing styles and mannerisms that makes them identifiable on the forums. But I never really believed it until now.)
-
My apologies. I wanted to be sure. Thanks.
-
I'm not the only one noticing that Wingslord24 is using the exact same arguments and is spamming the costume thread with pictures without any references for what specifically in those pictures (s)he/they want just like KingCedd03 did, am I?

As has been brought up on the previous threads for the same thing, a new primary that uses magic animations but is called something not pigeon-holed, like Primal Forces, Chaos, or whatever is fine. Getting spellcasting animations for existing power sets is also fine. However, neither of those options is acceptable by those asking for a magic set. They specifically want it called magic, eldritch, arcane, sorcery, or something else with magic animations. I don't think anyone has issues with a new power set that uses magic-esque animations. We can always request less magic-esque animations. No one that I am aware of is complaining about having something like a Staff Blast set where you wield a staff to fire the set's powers, or a Wand Blast set where you wield a wand to fire the set's powers. Those of us against are specifically against something like a Magic Blast set however. And those in favor will only accept a Magic Blast set.

When you log your new character into Atlas Park, walk into City Hall and go down the stairs. There are five offices down there with names that tell you what origin they are for. Walk into any office and talk to the contacts inside. They will give you the original contact path. You can do this for any of the five origin offices regardless of your origin, so you can do them all if you want. Though you will need to turn off XP to do so.

You can already make non-bikini swimsuits for females in the game. I'm going through the character creator to check options, and these make standard one-piece swimsuits. For the bottom, you use a bikini bottom. For the top, you use one of the Cybertechs, Frost, Jungle Sheer, one of the Keyholes, Mod, Strapless, or Tank Top. For a non-standard one-piece, choose something else. For a wetsuit or surfer outfit, choose one of the ones with sleeves with Athletic Shorts.

Since magic is an origin in the game, this has been floated in every magic power set request thread. However, like I said, unless the power set is specifically called magic in some way, the ones making the requests refuse to accept it. Magic is one of five origins in the game. It is a source from which characters get their powers. The Sorcery pool is/was one of five planned Origin pools. Primary and Secondary pools however are already magic. Even the ones like Robotics and Assault Rifle. It just takes the magic origin to make them magic. And there is a plethora of references across comics, video games, cartoons, and other media that shows how that works. So no, there will not be a Magic Blast power set. However, alternate animations that portray the sets better for magic are welcome.

Go to AE if you want to farm. Most effective means I am aware of. All I am saying is that it is exploitable. Anyone can blitz a lower level TF/SF solo barring any defeat all missions, get the normal TF/SF reward of merits, the xp and inf' from mobs and mission completion rewards; recipe, enhancement, and salvage drops from the mobs, and also be guaranteed their choice of rare salvage at the end? I already solo TFs. And if I can't solo it? I typically just need 1 friend to be on to duo it. So as the team leader for my solo TF runs, I get a guaranteed rare salvage of my choice at the end on top of the regular rewards I get from doing the TF? Either I'm going to be doing better on rewards or I and others doing the same thing are going to kill the value of those rare drops. Like one of my in game friends told me when we discussed this while teaming, the OP is a good idea for like Issue 8 of the game. Not for Issue 28 of the game.
-
You're looking at it as if it were an either/or, and it isn't. You're not going to either get the regular inf' from doing the TF/SF or the rare salvage, you're going to get both. (Edit: And you still retain the normal chance for rare salvage to drop from mobs.)

List of Pet Attacks Still Inflicting Knockback Protection
Rudra replied to Pazta's topic in Bug Reports
Those are holds that are supposed to lock the target in place. Why do you want the the KB protection removed? -
Remove "Supremacy" from the list of autopowers
Rudra replied to gabrilend's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
Correct. https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Stealth_and_Perception -
So then you just solo the easier TFs/SFs over and over. No need to fight over who leads. And you get rare salvage guaranteed every run.

6 of them.

Add Dr. Meinst and Doc Buzzsaw to the Abandoned Sewer Network
Rudra replied to Glacier Peak's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
The Sewer Network (not to be confused with the Abandoned Sewer Network) of Paragon City is not a place utilities workers go anymore. The grimy, filthy water and rusty pipes are now the venue for hordes of smelly scoundrels. The maze-like corridors hide many dangerous foes, and ample turns for anyone to get lost among. The enemies are numerous, and tougher than what you can expect to find in Atlas Park or Galaxy City. There are no contacts or trainers down here, only villains looking for trouble. Rumor has it that the Rikti fled to even deeper parts of the sewers when their invasion was defeated. https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Sewer_Network Edit: And there are above ground water treatment facilities. They come into play on some Skulls and DE missions. -
Add Dr. Meinst and Doc Buzzsaw to the Abandoned Sewer Network
Rudra replied to Glacier Peak's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
The only problem with the Galaxy City link you provided is that it says it lists information for how the game will be when Issue 21 is implemented, and Galaxy City was destroyed in Issue 21. I really, really, really want to say that Galaxy City used to have its own Sewer Network access though. Via a door that pretty well blended into its wall. -
What temp power would be given that players would think is a good reason to lead a TF/SF? What is to stop players from simply soloing said TFs/SFs since so many can be so easily even without temp powers? Why should a costume piece be locked behind leading a TF, especially for only a limited time of use? (Edit: And I'm sorry, but what TFs are needed to get the Sheer Willpower power? It says it just needs the Protector of Paragon City badge, and I'm not seeing any TFs required for that.)

Add Dr. Meinst and Doc Buzzsaw to the Abandoned Sewer Network
Rudra replied to Glacier Peak's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
Okay, yeah, running through the sewers, looks like any Galaxy City portion that used to exist is removed. I'm pretty sure but not 100% that there used to be a Galaxy City exit, but the entire section of the sewers that should go there is not there (or was re-linked to King's Row?). (Edit: No, pretty sure KR always had a link, so just no GC section any more provided it previously existed.) Edit again: The patch notes make no mention of the sewers being changed for Galaxy City being destroyed though: https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Patch_Notes/2011-09-13 -
Add Dr. Meinst and Doc Buzzsaw to the Abandoned Sewer Network
Rudra replied to Glacier Peak's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
It looks like the Galaxy City portion of the sewers are still there. I can't log in the game right now to see if there is a sealed door right now or check map alignment for the zones.
