GOT BUSTED!

Indeed, and by now, even if in group, even if not turned to KD, it can be done strategically and bring good advantages to everyone. Can also be used to mess around, but the same can be said of almost every power that affects mobs, don't get me started on phasing...

Congrats on the hot topic @Snarky! Diantane has nothing on you! :P

Daily update on the race for people's top nomination! And yes, we already won the award that the staff at MO gives, but we are aiming to win people's choice, that will give Homecoming way more exposure come January, DO IT! https://massivelyop.com/2021/12/11/massively-ops-2021-awards-best-mmo-rogue-server/

Welcome home!, i would say you first enjoy the game and get your bearings about, then you will have time to get into min maxing, practically every single combination can be done viable or even great with the right slotting of enhancements, and on top of that you can add incarnates for most of the end game runs, so be at ease, if you happen to be on the Excelsior server send me a shout out to @Albion or let me know your global so I send you some starting funds for when you begin hunting for sets.

Yes i did got your question, not thinking you implied anything, just wanted to get across my point of view that they can deal with the technical incongruencies mostly (they are even unraveling the awful codding of the past and putting down a way more neat approach) but the crucial thing that delays them seems to be their numbers.

Question here is, how long is going to keep up being like that...

From my humble layman position observing them discussing ideas now and then, I think the intent and the projects are there, but we lack more graphic artists, Naomi is an extremely talented one but can't do everything, and as we saw in ASF, existing assets are pushed to do new neat things, there is not a lack of a will either, Devs work even a bit too much.

Certainly that HC is by far the leading rogue server on stability, long term changes and population doesn't hurt when it comes the time to check if they still gonna let us rock on.

It was clarified long ago already that we won STAFF choice award, they will also select PEOPLE choice one, which is the one we aim to win as having both would do wonders for Homecoming getting exposure:

The only thing bad for health in ASF is the damn brickernauts, even when I am aware and keeping an eye out for them, one second of distraction and they get me...

On the third build slot I have a monstrosity that I call "Cosmetic Taxi", mainly sports the travel power pools, with a bit of the primary/secondary/ancillary/patron pools that show neat visual effects, surprisingly enough, that thing can play though most content short of a very demanding one, but those are usually done by leagues so it can get covered, AT is Illusion/Radiation controller.

It has been long discussed and yes usually becomes a flamefest :P, but to make it short: a group of blasters rolling over a tf in ten minutes is not the ideal way of playing. That said, it is ONE of the ways of playing and everyone plays as they have fun, no one can tell others how to play, but (and precisely because of that) when a certain way becomes kind of mandatory in practice and some AT's and players of a different persuasion don't enjoy content or their own builds much because of that, well, something gets added to counterbalance, can't make everyone happy but can make sure there is different things to do and to like for everyone.

Update of the day, our competitors are gaining speed, keep up the good work everyone! https://massivelyop.com/2021/12/11/massively-ops-2021-awards-best-mmo-rogue-server/

There is a couple but they are very secretly kept and having a chance to join is low unless you know the people in, they are VERY suable, the advantage of SWG is that it was completely abandoned, if you look at the award category, they didn't include any game that has not been abandoned, thus rogue, otherwise it would be a pirate server and then things get complicated.

The gain is that in January announcements/articles/interviews will be carried on portraying Homecoming as MO staff choice winner of the award, and if we get the people's choice award as well, the exposure would be much bigger, as well as the allure for new players to arrive and try the game, more exposition -> more players -> more continuity -> more devs? -> more content -> more CoH for long time. We playing a game we thought lost, and we playing it for free, dropping a vote in a page is the less we can do.

I think they never were really serious about their U.S. and Europe subsidiaries, they keep focusing on cellphone games and those that appeal to the southern asia market.

All in all, I think ASF hit all the right (and intended) spots, from my personal perspective, the design responds to some niches and metas that have been long stablished in the game, and may not be very healthy for it in the long run, that is bound to ruffle some feathers. It also introduces some very interesting settings and mechanics that will be now available for future endeavors.

Seems we have more than enough to compile a list and ask for it to be put somewhere for all to peruse, the order should be alphabetic or...?

I am with the space mood, lets get that moon base on!

That is more to blame on peoples mindset, the ideal would have been people taking their time to strategize and polish their team work, while appreciating the surroundings, but there is some even rushing Relentless by now, there are thankfully some more eased up ones where people tries to enjoy the story instead of wanting to beat everything asap and get out.

I am extremely surprised you were able to grab that name.

Damn, harsh yet nothing but the truth.

Warhammer is pushing forward, to arms! vote vote vote!

Update, keep it up comrades! For those wondering why we keep voting on the poll even when we already won the MO Staff choice, in January both the staff choice and the peoples top nomination will be announced, if HC can win both that would be the best.
