Maybe it's just how the GM feels, why else would they name it that? I too wish it looked like that. 😂

@ShinMagmus did you really not pick the title of this thread? "What i wished arsenal control looked like"

hey is it too late to ask for a rocket launcher model (like the council have) for LRM rocket? also what does LRM mean, long range munitions rocket? (serious question not much of a weapons person) He's not council but

@Lockely It's wild how quickly you got proven correct 💀

Buried Secrets: I think overall, as an introduction arc it does the job of introducing enemy groups on Striga quite well, however the arc itself is a little bare. The choice of villain group used to me is only really an issue because the contact isn't really living up to the villain group he's apart of. In the intro he says right away "Our presence on the Island should remain a secret". To me, this part should be the first big hint that at the end the 5th column member is going to try and kill you to ensure nobody directly is aware of their involvement. That is probably what the 5th would do anyway. Further in the arc, he makes note of The motivation for the villain taking on the job is entirely money based. The Reichsman strikeforce is basically a larger scale version and the villains main motivation for going after Reichsman once betrayed is entirely money based again. This to me is more than enough given the world City of Heroes takes place in, it's extremely different from our own. From the Baracuda SF "I can't believe we got cheated out of our payment by that Reichsman clown, Character. We gotta do something about this, especially since it sounds like those 5th Column chumps are gunning for us. I've been reading over that information you found, and it sounds like Reichsman is planning something big back in Boomtown. We can get our revenge by messing with Reichsman's invasion." Much like in that Strikeforce, I believe the ending to the storyarc should be betrayal once again. In the Buried Secrets finale, when you're sent into the 5th column base that is entirely robots, when you finish the objective, in my opinion, a 5th column kill squad should arrive to dispatch you, even if not directly including the contact. Given most of the conversations you have with him are a tad "Muahaha im evil" toss in a throw away line about "Do you think the 5th would actually allow you to continue living?" or something and the arc's primary issue would be solved. You can keep the final thing you retrieved as the "payment". No friendship with the 5th for anyone, you get to punch more 5th, and they get to live up to their truly evil nature in thinking they can use and kill whoever they please. Unless you intend to keep this contact for further story line involving the player working with the 5th column.

I had the badge from buzzsaw and couldn't speak to the phone as any alignment. This too was solved by using the "find contact" and teleporting to the phone, then i was able to get it.

Been testing out a lot of the features and reworks, gotta say overall loving the new update. Very fond of the GM rework, the unstable aether stuff, the pets. Love it. Haven't had much feedback to provide someone else hasn't already mention be it bug or adjustment. It's great to see the main plot line get some attention, very hopeful for the future content releases. [beanbag] control needs less sleeps, sleeps bad. 😞

Sally's new ground-swimming mechanic seems to be functioning No idea of this a new bug or not but thought i'd post it anyway

no, It's basically a "too late" situation. AP is the hangout central and where people gravitate to and has been for too long, so everyone is just use to going to ap for it and new players will see everyone there and end up doing it too. Blue isn't better, it just came first and had a good standing area right out the gate.

The truth has always been simple Atlas Park. It's the go-to hang around area and always has been since the beta, a lot of costume contests and other such happenings go on there. City of Heroes/Villains is a social game at its core and the people will always be on the side where it's easy to hang out. Pretty much anytime you ask anyone, Which side has better content? It's always City of Villains. It's not the content, It's not anything you will ever be able to fix. it's Atlas Park having a giant empty square right at the entry point of the game that is nice and sunny and easy to people watch.

Since they won't, I'll leak the release date. 2024

Is that [beanbag] ...for dominators??? 🥰

I mean it's got the enemies and stuff already, so why not? dunno about the tutorial thing, might wanna skip that for new players to get funneled to ap with the newer arcs

I had no idea i wanted the sneakers with tights until right now

Oh thats cool to know it's not a DL, I don't disagree this is a great tool and I'll probably use it myself now so thank you ^^ but i still think it'd be better to have the accolade plus you get another badge title! but we know that alrdy

That would probably be the best approach, avoiding the login badges in specific for an accolade around holiday events. Makes it easy to future proof!

Faster, easier, and more efficient and less downloads just to have an accolade for the primary event badges excluding login rewards. A lot of players avoid the forums due to forum warriors and the toxicity they bring.

It's better not to rely on third party addons that aren't even advertised by Homecoming for things like this, Got to think about new players who wouldn't know about them.

I don't dev for homecoming but i imagine they don't actually need to remove any badges to edit an accolade as that's possible to adjust without removing and it doesn't punish "Late players" anymore than any other of the changes have to many different areas of the game. Sure, you can what if any kind of scenario about anything to have opposition to something, it's fairly easy to do. It's just a little weird i think to be extremely adamant that something isn't a good idea based purely on the idea of something COULD happen that historically has not and it being unfair to people who, for one are imaginary in this situation and two would never really know the difference since buying 3 more holiday login badges you may have missed is only 75 more candy canes. 😉 It's ok to not like an idea don't get me wrong here you're allowed to think what you think, It's well and truly not that deep of a suggestion. Just more silly badge titles to have through an easy avenue in content that probably won't get updated as there is far more pressing stuff that needs updating / new content not based around only being here for a couple weeks a year on a very limited development server.

That's based on the assumption they continue to add new badges that aren't automatic for logging in, which is highly unlikely. I don't see the limited dev time being spent on new holiday events when they're already fairly dense events. So the comparison to actual content like a TF which is very possible, doesn't really fit. Say 5-6 years from now, if they add 5-6 more logging badges, accolades can always be updated without creating new ones.

Doesn't count for accolade probably. Like you said, It's fairly rare to add and holiday events have a bunch of badges as is, more than enough for holiday accolades.

Like for Christmas, having all the Christmas badges could be something like idk "Champion of Christmas" or something. 🙂

Punchy was an amazing friend. There isn't much content in this game I've done without him in a long time and i don't know how im going to bring myself to play without him. I'd like to share just a handful of things for people who didn't know punchy. While its true he was fighting cancer, he never let his friends worry about it. He was always strong and to our current knowledge was finishing beating his cancer. Even though he was going through this and much more then anyone but his closest friends know, he was always wanting to help others with leveling, getting influence or badges it didn't matter what punchy was always down to help out and he was always linking music and just trying to have a good time with his friends. He was one of the most kind people I've met on this game. Most of the friends i have on this game after swapping to Everlasting i met through Punchy. While we did act like menaces in general chat to the dismay of many, it was always just us trying to have fun, like with our [beanbag] joke which was never intended to be a slight against anyone or the homecoming team, we were just really dumb. He never took it seriously and moved on from drama faster than anyone ive ever known. I already miss him more than words can express and i wish so desperately i had more time with them. Rest in peace Punchy. (Memorial done by chili bear of chaos united)

I miss them so much.

title like this ---> 💗 thank you for looking at this feedback
