The last thing I'm going to say here, and hopefully, the last time I'll feel like posting literally anything: Telling someone they can NOT PLAY A GAME FOR UP TO FOUR DAYS IS NOT HOSTILE. It wasn't a "they can fuck off" it was literally "there are other things in life you can do". Honestly if being told not even to touch grass, but to consider that if some event is happening you dislike you can do something else is such a big thing, you need to change your life a bit. Sorry. That's not me being hostile, it's life is more than an mmo. If that reality being brought up is distasteful... seriously. Addiction sucks. Please get help.

I swear unless the idea is one that everyone would like all the time, and has no chance of upsetting anyone, even vaguely suggesting it on the forums is just asking for abuse. Note: this isn't to everyone, but... There are other things to do besides city. There are other ways to play city besides leveling 1-50. But it's nice to see that some people haven't changed and continue to make this place feel hostile.

Kin melee suffers from being bottom tier because it has a unique mechanic that the devs aren't confident for how to balance. IMHO I would love if it just had a build up and decent numbers, but for the moment basically anyone will agree that, outside of maybe a stalker, the set is junk that looks cool.

If they'd known a DXP weekend was coming up, they, like you, could level something else during the time, or go elsewhere 🙂 There's clearly enough people that do enjoy it for the way that everlasting has been the last few days.

The bio of the toon sitting on the pedestal changes based on some random factor, and I heavily recommend checking it frequently. It can get pretty funny when a bio is a long mish text.

It'd still only be two days, maybe three at most, every month or two months, etc. I don't think they'd need to be spread THAT far out. The XP with slapping on the buff is still great anyway, so it's less of a "we need this" and more of a "hey, this is cool" so I think also if it was more regular it would encourage healthier play habits (IE less reason to go "eh I can sleep/eat later, it's DXP")

Imho, I take issue with the fact that we keep seeing things nerfed, like radiation armor, bio armor, etc, but there's still no numerically sound reason to make a kin melee or a broadsword toon. Elec is no longer a joke when it comes to blasting, which as a lover of elec, makes me veyr happy... and hey, elec armor got buffed too... But there's definitely a feeling to me, too, that farming is worth them nerf batting things specifically, but there's a lack of desire comparatively to fix under performers. Sorry you've had those issues, by the way.

Hiya, everyone! People seem to *really* be loving this weekend, and the devs seem to really hate farming activities (some of the nerfs are *definitely* targeting those sorts of things, and always have) so I have a suggestion. Monthly, or bimonthly, DXP weekends. It may make it less exciting, but it also may draw people in more regularly, which is important when we go a year without much besides bugfixes. That's understandable for a whole smattering of reasons, but imho if the community likes something... telling them they can get it more often, and on a schedule, that sounds pretty cool to me?

I dont think we need to nerf things. I think we just need to bring other things more up to snuff. I think this was said very well over here: https://massivelyop.com/2025/05/29/into-the-super-verse-what-the-heck-is-going-on-with-balancing-in-city-of-heroes-homecoming/ Nerfing things that may be overtuned seems to be a much higher priority than just making bad things good. nerfing Rad Armor when there's still sets no one has a numerical reason to use is just laughably backwards priorities. Why ruin anyone's fun when you could just add more fun for some and others just get to keep going If you dont want to farm, don't farm. it doesnt hurt the economy, because the rich people don't farm--they flip on the market. It doesnt hurt making people 50 because the game has been out for 5 years and most people who wanted to have 40+ 50's. Why do you just hate people playing the game differently than you do?

I dont know why this doesnt have a million reactions. It might be the absolute best reaction.

My recommendation to find them quicker? /macro PT target_custom_next alive Time Shove it on a key--I put it on 4. Fly above everything, and tap 4 every so often. It can find 'em from 300-400yards away I think it is? then just press f and it'll magnetize you right to the capsule. Hope that helps.

Hi! Of course, as instructed by a GM, I am very happy to stop this for now. I would however like to ask that you explain what I did wrong when I was following the exact instructions in the quoted section? 😕 If you believe that I am making this a hostile environment instead of attempting to pursue a positive path forward, then I believe I should be made aware of how I am creating this disruptive environment so that I do not recreate these issues in the future. Thank you for all of the work you do for us! 🙂

🙂 I'm not seeing anything in here that allows for what was described! I see that it requests that we listen to Admins and GMs, but I don't see any of them in this thread! Additionally, this is something I would have felt comfortable posting on the original forums! Additionally, my intent has been plainly laid out. Unless my words are taken out of context or misconstrued, I believe it would be very easy to see that I am not attempting to break rules, but instead, I am proceeding in a new path as the previous paths have been sealed 🙂 Thank you for sharing these rules so I can make sure that I continue following them in the future.

Since you're being so helpful, could you please pinpoint the precise section? 🙂

Hello! 🙂 We've recently learned that there are many homecoming policies that are not publicly known but are internally very solid. While I would like to request those being made public--if only so we can know what rakes not to step on--I would additionally suggest that a process by which disagreements with policies might be handled in a manner that allows for actual consideration and debate, not merrily a "no and this is why" that ignores a reasonable rebuttal. Obviously, this can be declined as all suggestions may, but I believe that a formalized process for communication between those in the community and those making decisions would help both sides have a much easier time with interactions! 🙂 NOTE: As the two prior threads have been closed, please do not bring up those topics here. I am not attempting to simply make a new thread for the same exact purpose. As I continue on the forums I started with a request, and then with a critique, and now I believe that the synthesis of those ideas is to pursue this path not in a way that is solely for anything which I may have a problem with, but for all such problems that could possibly exist in the future. Please do not attempt to state that I am angry for being told no. Please do not treat me simply as a troll. This is a sincere subject that I believe has already shown it has reasons to come up. I am not seeking privileged Dev/City Council/GM access. I do not believe that opaque, hidden discussions between one player and the staff is as useful to the health of the game as open, visible discussion, which is a reason why I believe the forums have a value in this and other issues past, present, and future. Any reason from requesting reexamination of policies around a protected class, to changes to game rules based on shifting content or power sets or etc, so on, are all valid reasons why someone may wish to have a discussion that falls within these lines. By seeking to understand a process by which such situations might be navigated in a way that does not result in friction on either side, I believe taking what has already occurred into a count means this is the next logical course of discussion.
