I propose you stop telling others how to play. Is there some deep inner need to mess with others entertainment?

You are a god sir!!!!!!!!!! I will find these and celebrate your name!!!!!!!

go back and actually read the eula that ncsoft had you agree to EVERY TIME you logged in. They owned all characters in the game. period. you are 100% wrong on that. The name can be owned within the framework of the game, where they are exclusive. if they were not, we wouldnt be having this conversation. In rl you cant own a name. In a game, yes you can. This game still actually belongs to ncsoft and they could shutdown its use at any time.

Besides, the names belong to ncsoft. if you want the legal definition.

its on a character. it is being used. If it wasnt, you could use it. The devs just changed the definition of used.

If I drive away with your car in the night...you werent using it. theft. "I was only taking it for a spin! Why are you so selfish?"

theft is theft. Sophistry will not change that. if it only affected accounts that hadnt logged in in a year, you might be right. Its like when someone went into my back yard and "reclaimed" my lawn chair. I mean I wasnt sitting in it so I must not have needed it.

The Great Name Theft was at least partly successful.

agreed. I am just saying that there are people that played a lot, were good at the game, that still havent seen all the nooks and crannies this game has to offer. Or just dont remember them. I knew people on live that played from day 1 to close that werent good at the game. but they had loads of fun, and were fun to be around. I knew people that played that had challenges to everyday life that the rest of us dont. I dont want to see a game that caters to the elite players only, like wow does. The devs release the costume system and set it to cater to the elite, while it is something rp'rs have been asking for for years. The costumes are set to 1 character only which will further complicate people with multiple specific use characters. It isw obvious that they want to incentivise +4 Tfs, but it may backfire on them.

stormies. always kick stormies. If they cant control their knockback they arent wanted. If you want a certain skill level...make a channel that only allows skilled players in it. only recruit from that channel. One of the great things about this game was that you could complete just about any content with the players you picked up in chat. this release blows that out the window. right now you are getting people in their tricked out super builds joining. before long you will see some people in SOs. the game was balanced around so builds. the devs decided to kill that and separate the game into eilte and nonelite players. expect a lot more of this sort of problem in the near future.

sure, but any specific part of the zone? I dont have a clue. out of 197 alts 2 of them happen to be red side. Not because I dont play the game, I just dont play that part of the game.

I dont feel screwing up the game for people is worth inconveniencing afk farmers. It annoys you, its not the end of the world. there is enough "you will play the way I want you to play" vibe in this release as it is. Do we really need the game to become superhero wow?

If you told me to go to a specific place red side, I probably couldnt find it. I leveled 1 toon there around I8. I dont go there very often at all. I am very much not someone that has been power leveled.

I always liked the run to the truck from the tram

Isnt the notion that the superhero just trashed all the guards downstairs and didnt break a nail so maybe you should go to the restroom and take a break until they leave a thing? I am going to go attack a walking thermonuclear weapon with a baseball bat? are you kidding me?

Its always annoying that mobs can stand in an explosion and not take damage because 15 of their friends already did.

if the change was unnoticable, why change it? why cant we damage as many targets as we can aggro?

Well plaid!

there are more options than that. you can make difficulty sliders without changing the basic game we all wanted to come back

the point is, we will not discuss WHAT the revamp will be. we will get to test it and give feedback on the little details of it. If the revamp of synapse is to take out 2 missions and add 16 +4 boss fights, we will not see it until they want feedback of the AV's costume. So far it looks like "the game is too easy" people are being catered to. A lot of people have commented over the years about various TF's. Having a discussion about what to do to fix them just might be a good idea.

Honestly? I dont want the tfs that I know and love butchered. While we have lots of feedback on how the current changes work, there waws zero feedback on if we wanted or needed changes. The aggro caps that was set in stone, evidently the stone wasnt that hard. We still have the damage cap so we have the worst of both worlds. ATs that survive by killing the enemy are in a much worse state than before. they can take attacks for unlimited amounts of enemies but cannot hit them back. new sets, new maps are fine. changes to the base game to satisfy the demands from a small amount of players are not. when will the discussion of the need or desire for those changes take place? after people leave?

at least they dont sparkle

I just like the tfs. but then I solo dr q so I might not be the average(sane) player

you dont need to, there are enough idiots that head out on their own and dont want tank or support help....until they are about to drop that is
