Hey all. While this convo isn't rule-breaking (or anything bad really), posts in these feedback threads should be directed at the developers, and not conversations amongst ourselves. Per GM Widower's post pinned at the top of the forum: 5. DON'T GIVE FEEDBACK ON OTHER PEOPLE'S FEEDBACK. You're here to discuss and debate the changes with the devs, not each other. The devs are big people (Huge, even) and can stand up for themselves. Thank you!

issue 27 Focused Feedback: New Commands
GM Impervium replied to The Curator's topic in [Open Beta] Focused Feedback
Roll was only a D6, iirc. And it showed pictures (ala rock/paper/scissors). If you have a certain badge, you can roll a 7. Somehow. -
It's a WITCH hat... in a NON-STICK frying pan. Maybe you're lucky enough that it's never happened to you, but there's a certain NPC escort in a TF who just LOVES getting stuck in geometry. There's a fix in this patch for that 😃

It's what I'm most thankful for in this patch 😃 (at least in my capacity as GM!)

Hey Are you playing on Wifi? Make sure you have a strong connection, if so. Also, this sounds like an issue that's been plaguing Excel for a while now; Are you having this problem on all shards?

Do I keep my costume contest title when switching servers?
GM Impervium replied to crushcide's topic in Help & Support
It's part of the character, so it should stay.- 1 reply

Alright folks. You want teasers? I'll give ya teasers! No plot-adjacent fanfic this time, folks, just straight up PAGE 4 SPOILERS WITHOUT CONTEXT! (and oh yeah, short of something apocalyptic happening, we're pushing to open beta SUPER SOON!!)

You are about to do something hard and can only pick one defender...
GM Impervium replied to Lyrium's topic in Defender
Okay folks, 2 things: 1: Keep it friendly... things were starting to veer towards hostile, so I hid some posts. 2: Do NOT mention things that are still in Closed Beta. Talking about the Aeon SF is fine. The other thing? No. Not yet. -
Hi Please submit a ticket using the support option at the top of the page (if you're on desktop, that is; if you're on mobile, hit the three lines in the upper right to bring up the menu that shows the support link); please include as many details as you can for the other account(s), including account name, the e-mail those accounts were associated with, global name, and names of characters on those accounts. I'm not promising anything, but the more info you can provide (EXCEPT passwords, though if you knew those, you wouldn't have this issue), the better. Incidentally, if you were to log out of the forums and try logging back in, does the log-in widget not try to autofill info for the other accounts? Or had you played on a separate device?

Moved to Archetypes forum 😃

Okay fellas, let's keep it friendly. On one hand, yes, those defense numbers aren't ones you'd see in combat. Unsupressed Stealth is adding about 11% defense. While in Mids, if you go into Options -> Configuration -> Effects & Maths tab, you will see on the right checkboxes with various effects, such as attacking or being attacked. So checking off "hit by foe" will lower Stealth's defense bonus from 11 to 3.85, which is what you'd see while in combat. Therefore, boasting a "50% s/l def" rating is kinda disingenuous. On the other hand, it's doubtful many people know about that option in Mids, so it would be better to educate people on the specifics, instead of just saying "look in options". Also, that's a program setting, and isn't saved on a per-build basis. With that out of the way, let's keep sharing builds, hmm? 😃

Okay folks, rein it in a bit. No sense bringing up real-life economic issues when we're all here to ignore that sort of thing for a while. If one takes an exceptionally BROAD meaning of "manipulating the market", then, that's something we're all guilty of. Every time you bid for something, you're increasing demand. When you bid low, you're trying to reduce it's going price. When you bid high, you increase it's going price. When you sell items, you're increasing supply, and doing so at a price point you desire. Or, if you vendor things, you're denying other players access to those specific goods (well, not specifically, since, you know, everything's bucketed... but still). But, that's a cheeky way of looking at it, I'll admit. The good news is that this sort of thing will likely be self-correcting in time. Just wait it out until whoever is doing this gets bored?

Part of me is morbidly curious to see how far this goes... but my better judgement disagrees. So, back on topic, folks!

Non-melee ATs that can afford to have mobs in melee range
GM Impervium replied to Prof Evbof's topic in Archetypes
So, this is more of a question about archetypes rather than a general topic, so I'll be moving the thread to the appropriate place 😃 But yeah, welcome to the game! I know you'll find a good build or three that delivers exactly what you want! -
Carnival of Shadows 😃

Alright everyone, take it easy. Whenever a suggestion like this comes up, I like to inform/remind folks that not only is it not "easy" to just plug and play stuff from other servers, but that we wouldn't do so without signed permission. Just because it's "out there" doesn't mean that Homecoming considers it "up for grabs". If/when we ever do get MM customization, we'll do it our own way. Also this thread had turned into crap, so, locking it up.
-
Yeah, sorry for the mess. We're still investigating, though it seems fine as I type this.

Devs, Super Reflexes in need of an update....
GM Impervium replied to Blackjoy's topic in Suggestions & Feedback
I concur. Sorry all, but let's just let this whole thing drop for now, alright? -
This is an issue the devs are aware of, and I thought they patched it? Maybe it's a "coming soon" thing. Either way... what's happening is that her "default stance" is the hovering sitting pose. If she loses sight of her escort, she assumes this stance for a moment, clipping her into geometry. We're not looking to change the mission ... the TF takes a very small amount of time as is. I feel like removing the escort would come with a merit reward deduction, as the escort is the only thing that takes any amount of time (except an underprepared team against 10 AV ambushes in a row)

Is there such a thing as societal norms in CoH?
GM Impervium replied to Ukase's topic in General Discussion
While it's not your (or anyone else's) responsibility to police the build choices of others, I wonder if in this case, it might have been beneficial to reach out to the player in question? "Hey, I see you're dying a lot and not able to keep up. Is everything okay?" Based on your description, I would go so far as to say their powers weren't even enhanced at all. Though this would be putting yourself out there, and not everyone always has the time or patience to walk someone through building their character. At the very least, you could point them to a few guides or the Help channel or something. It's hard to distinguish malice from ignorance, especially online. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, and I would hope (but know it's too much to expect) others to, as well. That's the kind of culture we'd like to cultivate 😃- 72 replies

So, I just hid a lot of posts. Like, half the thread, damn. Allow me to make a few things clear here, folks. The Homecoming Devs and staff want CoH to be a game that is open and accessible to EVERYONE. If there are certain effects or powers that cause issues, even if it's just for a small number of people, we WANT to know. The devs actually previously spent a LOT of time with a single player who had issues with Disruption Arrow's FX. BUT, we need to know who these players are so we can get their feedback on any potential changes. We'd hate to just blindly guess what would work, only to make things worse! So please, encourage anyone having issues to submit a ticket or make a thread detailing what's going on, so we have something to work with. Second, allow me to reiterate part of our Code of Conduct: The following is considered prohibited content: Hate speech: Hate speech is defined as anything threatening or abusive towards a specific group based on their race, religious beliefs, political affiliation, disability, sexual orientation or gender identity I'd consider "Getting sick from seeing fx on a screen" to be pretty darn debilitating. So I'd like people to more carefully consider their objections when suggestions like these are made. I'm all for back-and-forth and constructive criticism and disagreements, but if it's seeped in "I don't care about your disability", then it's not valid to post. Thank you. Let's keep it kind!
