No thank you. I already saw the Avengers movies. The OG Avengers were the "A" team with bankable stars. I've no interest in the "D" team. Marvel/Disney is waiting to see whether or not Ironheart is going to flop.... which we all know it will.

Call me crazy but I was more into Dr. Crusher and Hoshi Sato. Sisko would've just blown them all to bits. That's why he was more awesome.

/noparticles is a huge help with that. I'll be the first person to say that the game is absolutely polluted with way too much VFX vomit in team content, but I don't see it being an issue for clicking buttons to re-summon henchman and buff them. You could always move off the field of battle to find a clear spot as well.

Why do you consistently ignore the fact that you can just turn off GF and solve everyone's problems? You've said a few times here that you don't use it all the time, so it's not necessary. That's you asking everyone else to accommodate your laziness in changing your tactics while on a team. They hold the star, it's their team to run as they see fit. Don't like it? Quit and form your own team.

Except that GF is a toggle that can be turned off at any time.

Congrats on the victim mentality syndrome. You're taking no personal responsibility for your own actions and blaming everyone else like you're the victim. What about your teammates who couldn't go and use Null mid-TF and had to suffer through you refusing to turn off group fly on them?

The reason turning off group fly at Null the gull is even an option is because narcissists like yourself would rather grief and inconvenience everyone else instead of being courteous to your fellow players.

Even that no longer holds true. The Borg Queen has been destroyed how many times on screen now? 3 or 4? Yet the Borg somehow manage to survive.

You're a Defender attempting to tank an AV. Of course you're going to get annihilated. Why would you expect any different result? If Defenders have enough HP/Resists solo in order to survive multiple hits from an AV, the game is way out of balance.

Could be, although depending on the shot there's more than likely going to be CGI work/cleanup needed anyway, so not sure what the difference is. I've seen that video in a few articles around and they're all saying that's Ebon Moss-Bachrach in the suit. Maybe Marvel/Disney is trying to cut costs and going with a rubber suit instead of full CGI. The rest of the promo stuff for this looks cartoony, so wouldn't surprise me if this turns the Thing is being done practically. Even more hilarious that anyone puts so much emphasis on the emoji random strangers on the internet use on posts in an internet forum.

Some clips and a short scene of Red Hulk at the end of this video celebrating Marvel's 85th anniversary. Is it just me or is the CGI getting worse and not better? Can't say this makes me any more interested in seeing CA: BNW.

I've seen that article before and yes, Michael Chabon really is a total hack and a complete piece of fecal matter. Back in the day, the creatives behind Star Trek knew that not everything they produced was of the highest quality and they were very humble in admitting it. Today, if someone doesn't like something, they're labelled as "toxic" and told they're every kind of negative -ist there is. Total hacks like Michael Chabon would never admit they're writing stinks - it's the fan's fault, not his complete and total lack of talent. Most here may have seen this before, but here's a good example. This is Shatner and Nimoy at a Trek convention when Star Trek VI premiered. If you've never seen it, Nimoy and Shatner both humbly talk and joke about how Trek wasn't always emmy award winning writing. They never blamed the fans for it. Nimoy even compliments and thanks the fans for being so forgiving.

Again, blaming the fans doesn't work and doesn't change the fact that the show under-performed, so it was cancelled. Had the show drawn in the viewership numbers it needed to renew, it would have been renewed. It didn't. And again, if you don't believe that there were and still are fans of the original Star Wars films who are women, LGBTQ, people of various races and ethnicity, you're absolutely fooling yourself. If you don't believe characters like Leia and Padme weren't strong female leads who were absolutely integral to the story, were well written and developed characters and were characters women and young girls could identify with, you're absolutely fooling yourself. It's not the actors/actresses fault... it's the poor writing, direction and production. There's nothing wrong with telling a story we haven't seen before. The problem with The Acolyte is it didn't deliver on that promise, no matter how you slice it. To be fair, I watched a couple of episodes and I personally didn't find it as bad as some of the more colorful reviewers found it to be, but that's a matter of opinion. Those people you mention who are quite clearly racist/misogynist in their social media posting are easily identified and even more easily ignored. I personally don't care what race or gender a writer is. It's their product that matters.

You can't target them, but they can still cause confusion as explained above. Not everyone is going to listen or abide by the request, and no doubt there will be those who summon them just to be trolls. As an example, people have been asked to not spawn Kronos Titans during the weekly SNS over on Torch, yet every week there's been at least one. First time people were asked not to spawn them, there were like 4 of them. That should give you some idea of how well asking nicely works.

Can't say I'm all that excited for this series. Not that I didn't like the character in Wandavision or Kathryn Hahn. I thought she was great in the role. I just don't think it's worth it's own series.

Is having your cosmetic pet really that important for a Hami raid? Especially if it's causing confusion for others as described above. I agree that tab and Ctrl Tab targeting can be sketchy and not always reliable.

Good one 🤣

Yes In a roundabout way, the OP is looking for suggestions on better ways to use macros for emotes and looking for discussion on suggestions on how emotes in general could work better.

Clip of the Human Torch's costume from D23. I hope this is a prank. Looks very cartoonish.

I'm surprised no one from the Base Snobs™ club has dropped by yet to drop laugh emotes or tell people they need to "broaden their horizons". @honoroit - nice base. The inner tubes out in the shark infested sea is a nice touch. 😄

From my perspective, it does seem like more focus is put on team oriented content. Reading the forums here and chatting with others in game, I know I'm not the only one. There's a few of the HC folk who have posted over the years on the forums here how their preference is for team based content. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. They can work on whatever it is they want to work on. It's their server. Adding harder content is fine when it's optional like the hard mode TFs. Quite a lot of people have been turned off by the NPC revamps though, which aren't optional. I could be wrong, but I believe that's where the distinction is being made. Not saying those people are right or wrong, just my observation.

I don't disagree with the spirit of what the OP was saying here as it does seem clear that the direction is moving toward more "team oriented/required" content. I personally don't think that should be the sole focus, but that's me and HC can do whatever they like. Folks should also keep in mind there are other servers out there to try. There's not much any of us can do to affect change here. This server belongs to the HC people and they'll work on what they want, and there's nothing wrong with that. If everyone else leaves, they'll just go back to running a small server for family and friends. Remember, this isn't a commercial enterprise so there's no incentive for HC to cave to the whims and wishes of us regular folk. I'm not at all disparaging the HC team. I may not always agree with what they do, but I do respect and appreciate their dedication and work. I both like and dislike the changes that have been made, and for now there's enough to keep me interested in playing here.

Saw a few clips of this... so Penguin was gender swapped and all the men in Gotham are wanting her? Ok.... I'll pass.

You re-rolling is still far more efficient, less time consuming and easier than anyone here trying to code this as an option to Null. Others who have pointed out that this is baked into the character are correct and the live Devs mentioned that quite a few times as I recall. Exactly what I was thinking.

That guy is annoying and one of the biggest shills on the planet.
