A controversial topic: Is it time to make items scarcer or cost more?
Excraft replied to Troo's topic in General Discussion
I understand that the Beta server is subject to frequent data wipes. Again, I don't disagree with you. All I said was recreating a character on the Beta server isn't going to take the "hundreds of hours" alluded to. -

I can second that this does happen. It's not common, but I do see the occasional request in LFG for people running Aeon or ITFs that are requiring people to have "multiple IO sets" in order to join. There are a couple of really bad SGs that require people to have completely ridiculous builds created by one of the officers in order to run content with them. Any deviation from the build is allowed. -

Well, yeah. I don't disagree. That's what I was getting at. All I was saying is that it's not a huge chore to recreate a character on the Beta server. You don't need to spend "hundreds of hours" playing it again and again to get back to whatever level progress you were at. You can recreate any character at any level within a couple of minutes. No need to even transfer it from a live server. -

You can just re-copy the character to BETA or re-roll it with all the bells and whistles in a few minutes. It's not like you'd need to level up the character running all the content from scratch again. I think it's more people don't play on BETA because of the low population and most do want some feeling of progression. -
A couple of things ... No disrespect was intended. It is true the HC team produces more content than some real development shop. See Cryptic Studios. STO barely gets a trickle of content. Pointing this out doesn't mean other real development shops suck. That's you making an assumption. All my post means is that some of them produce content at a slower pace than HC. That's all. You're injecting a personal hangup into my post that isn't there. If you want the cadence to improve, as others have suggested, volunteer for the development team.

No disrespect meant, but so what? This is just my 2 inf, but there's already so much content in this game. I really don't think we need more story content or power sets. I think we should be happy we have the game back and that the group of volunteers running it are still running it and not burned out. Is everything HC does great? Hell no. Some of it has been great, some of it has been a steaming pile. Overall, they've done a good job with what they have and accomplish more than other real development teams working on real games have produced. That's not something to complain about.
-
What's not getting done fast enough for you? How much are you expecting from volunteers doing this in their spare time? I think they've done a great job with the amount of content they've produced in the time they have, and that should be commended. I may not like everything HC does, but I'm thankful they are doing it.

You know how some IO sets only have one unique enhancement?
Excraft replied to kelika2's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
Which in of itself is a pain, especially in cave maps and narrow hallways, and that isn't including KB knocking stuff into the map geometry where it gets stuck. Hence, the reason people avoided playing sets with heavy KB. There still are those people. -
You just have issues with people not liking things. Nobody is confused. Nobody needs you to explain this to them. Nobody needs you to explain what an opinion is or what the term "subjective to the person" means. Just because I didn't care for a particular comic in no way means others won't enjoy it. I didn't care for Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. I do encourage everyone to read it and make their own judgment about the story. Your point doesn't make sense though. People can dislike something and that doesn't make it bad for everyone. If I can be honest, it seems to me like you post here just to start arguments. I have to agree with what @ZacKing said earlier - you have the opportunity here to discuss the film and have yet to do so.

Actually, it's you who is very uninformed. I've read the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic. I didn't care for it. You seem to have serious issues with people disliking something. What are you on about? I said exactly both. Please learn to read. I can use an even larger font to quote what I posted again for you if you need it.

Since you seem to have missed this in my post -

All of which is meaningless for me. Winning an award doesn't automatically mean I can and should like the story. I think its great this writer got recognized for their work and I'm happy there's people out there who enjoyed it. It's not the depiction of Supergirl I'd prefer. The JL/JLU animated series along with the Superman and Batman animated series. There were some great storylines in those that I think would adapt very well to the big screen.
-
So I've read. Well, not every comic depiction is a winner. I wouldn't have gone with that, but congrats to those who will enjoy it. I really liked Milly Alcock on House of the Dragon, I wish Supergirl was getting something better.

I liked the Justice Gang's costumes, Hawkgirl especially. Initially, I thought they looked a bit weird, but they'd grown on me and having now seen them in action, I agree they look good. I also like the brighter coloring. Man of Steel was much too dark and muted, although Superman's costume did improve in BvS and the Snyder Justice League. I still think Superman looked a little goofy in this with the obvious muscle suit underneath. My only real complaint is the S. It looks more like a diagonal line than an "S" shape to me. I do like the much brighter coloring on it and that its made to look like something other than a generic spandex bodysuit.
