Interesting philosophical theory! Not one I'm qualified to get into so: maybe? Who knows, we'll see.
-
Telling them they don't need to farm merits to do that doesn't count as advice either? I disagree. There is such pressure for cookie cutter builds, farming merits, AE farming, and rushing to the level cap (an artifact of other games) that I will guarantee you that there are new players who have no idea.
-
I agree with both of you, and it does still beat paper and pencil; if not for MIDS I'd be running around six-slotting Rest or something, probably.
-
(You don't even need to farm for merits in the first place, tbh.)
-
... which brings back what I said earlier on how AI requires the intention and direction of intelligent users; that's more than just infinite monkeys banging away on typewriters, and adding more monkeys and typewriters doesn't change that. Without the guidance before and refining afterwards, you risk unforced errors; with those, you get bland stuff - which is fine enough for a bread bag label, but one does not live on bread bags alone. Maybe I'm wrong, sure, but get back to me when it can conceive of and compose a good poem.
-
In general: yes, agreed. In practice: seems we sort of have that already with our MIDS and the team that keeps it updated for us. But we can't import the build directly into the game no. 😕

I don't mind them at all, they add spice to the usual.

Let me know if there's anything you feel you simply MUST talk me into paying you to upgrade my base with, if you want, ha ha! Sybil dress acquired for my toon (as previously mentioned), it is the best costume choice on that last slot. I like the recharging numbers options for powers and trays. May make a new Dom for one of those two powers, but probably not both on one.
-
I'm sure it will get better at not being completely bland, but it still, by definition, can't come up with an original angle or make a thematic connection between things, unless one of it's scraped sources did so, or its human wielder tells it to. I figure a lot of it's going to stay in "fairly dumb" territory, the occasional peak aside. People are treating it like it's going to drive our cars and do our homework for us, like a train smoothly following previously laid tracks... without realizing all the work that goes into laying down tracks (planning, design, materials considerations, traffic laws and zoning, track maintenance, etc.) Humanity is basically a lazy bunch, so there's going to be some really telegentic screw-ups as time goes by too.

Croatoa has a farm....
-
Look, it's avery complex and tangled system, entirely on purpose! You just have to keep hanging around and listening to vet stalk about things, as well as reading the wiki. It's an annoying bit of homework, but it will pay off pretty well. 😃 I wish you all the luck with it!
-
If these gentle reminders don't stop, I'ma have to stop this car and come back there! Funny how merely saying "you don't have to farm to play this game" gets some people really upset.

You could have taken a screen shot of your groovy character instead, which would have been more YOU, but no..... 😃 The magic is still in the editing. Ever heard of William S Burroughs and his Cut-Up Technique for writing? Long story, but having read most of his stuff, just reprinting what it created got old really quickly; reading what was created and then writing based upon the associations and ideas it suggested? Fantastic stuff. Meanwhile, online publishers want to hit "create" on their new random number generators and then cut and paste the results without even editing them fort accuracy.
-
Dear lord please let this somehow be true.
-
Gentle reminder that you don't need to farm to play this game and end up both rich, at level 50, and uber-slotted. Seriously, you don't, go have fun instead! Also: not sure if serious...
-
Never seen this. I'd probably just ignore it, this is akin to plonking yourself in Pocket D and spamming "looking for farm plz." I have given out Inf and good enhancers ("slot this in Stamina and it will help a lot") on teams I was on though, so I'm no Scrooge, but still.
-
I'm with the undead on this one, every time I have to start this process it's always a headache of vague instructions and "oh, it doesn't work that way exactly here" or something. The modder really helped though, but invariably it's a matter of 45 minutes (that's often all of my gaming time!) and then somehow it all starts working and I still don't know how or why. Speaking of that modder, refresh my memory: do I have to download the new vidiot maps and then access them through, or does the modder get updates via some menu click that it will then put into place, or what?

You know... it occurs to me that when we do a Summer Blockbuster, one of those missions is to role play (vaguely) a team of thieves who rob a casino. As they're gangsters, essentially, it's a bit of a grey area, but.... have you ever heard anyone complain about "playing evil" there? I never have.

Considering the way things are going for superhero films at the box office, one of those badges had better be something like Hollywood Bomb Maybe the budget was too small, or the script was never satisfactorily smoothed out, or the editing changes made things too convoluted, or maybe it was just everything, but critics and audiences agree, this movie was terrible and your name is now a joke online.
