    The person that sat around wanting to do nothing was Tom Paris and Reginald Barkley.

     

    They had the same unlocked ability to be anything though and later did.

     

    You choose your own path.

     

    What you seek already exists.

    But they didn't sit around feeling sorry for themselves demanding to have it given to them. They worked for it, even if for Tom it started off as falling into his lap as a get out of jail card.

    Thats completely out of touch and irrelavant to the point you originally tried to make..

    No it's not, but if you choose not to see it I'll explain it.

     

     

    If a person in star trek sat around wanting to do nothing, but then got upset at the person that got to command a ship when they didn't,  would it be right for that person to feel sorry for themselves because the captain has something they dont?

    So there's a ton of unlockable content that you haven't gotten to and yet it would be a good idea for the volunteer development team to dedicate their time to making content that only a fraction of people would utilize?  You yourself have not availed yourself to whats already there, so why make more content nobody is going to see?

    So you're saying they shouldn't add more because I don't have it all?

     

    I also don't have a level 50 of every archtype and power set combo. I also haven't finished every mission or story arc. By your logic, why add new content at all?

    Not looking to derail the thread, but this isn't correct.  Not everyone aspired to be the Captain of a starship or Admiral on Star Trek.  Some people were perfectly happy being bartenders, chefs, farmers, research scientists etc.  Not everyone wanted the big chair and were content doing what they were doing because it was their passion in life.

    But they weren't wanting to sit around doing nothing,  or expecting others to not be an admiral because they personally thought it was a waste of time

    No I read it, you're just not making any sense.  At this point with all of the pie in the sky "earnable temp powers" etc., you sound like you're writing some fan-fic version of what you want this game to be.  None of these things are going to be implemented.  

    Then why is there a developer corner for future development? Am I wrong to ask for something I and others want? Even when it takes nothing away from you?

     

    Its pointless to talk to you about this when your whole take on it is that I shouldn't even try because in your mind no one wants it,  even when others do.

    An unlockable "costume piece" that nobody sees is a badge.  You still haven't given a valid reason why the badges we already have are not sufficient.  

     

    You're not (and haven't been) making any sense for 15 pages now.  

    Im guessing you didn't read the update either and just want to argue like the other guy? No more.  Read the update and we can talk about that; you're fighting to keep all costumes free when I've already given that to you

    No you want it to be your solitary vision of what you think COH should be.

     

    Don't put words in my mouth new content would be great but it should be available to everyone without tedious grinding to get it like you are suggesting.

     

    And not locking costume parts behind tasks.

    As I said,  which you claim to have read, I'm not fighting for that now. I don't want to argue with you.

     

    Accept that others might not like the status quo and have ther right to ask for something they veiw as better. I'm sure you're used to being on the other end of this stick so why can't you at least see where were coming from?

     

    It's like how in SWToR when I asked that the placeable base stuff like chairs be useable for rpers and the other fourm people basically said 

     

    1 it's unhealthy

    2 its fleeting

    3 its a waste of time and energy

    4 ways to achieve what you want without dicking around with everyone else's preference.

    The way the game is set up now yes you can, the limits were always artificial.

     

    Homecoming just removed them.  So people could appreciate the actual meat of the game which isn't seeking to unlock costumes.  Is beating the bad guys.

     

    You are seeking status symbols that don't matter or even exist in the grand scheme of the game.

     

    You can self impose any limit on anything in this game.

     

    You want more difficulty go to +4

     

    Still not enough, do it with SOs

     

    You want to unlock capes, run a story arc in pro on +4 get a badge then claim victory.

     

    The game is based on the land of make believe anyway.  If your imagination is limited that's your issue.  Not ours.

    Funny how half of those are limits in game, not made up ones. And no I'm not seeking status symbols. How is a costume peice a status symbol even when I've previously said I'd be okay even if no one saw it.

    This is now the real COH for everyone involved.

     

    You can't seem to grasp that.

     

    Whether it's fleeting or permanent, doesn't matter, this is our reality and it's a good one.

     

    You have a flawed homecoming world view if it's not good enough for you.

    So you'd rather have nothing change, no new content? I want it to be something greater everyone loves,  not stagnate.

  10. 3 minutes ago, Infinitum said:

    This isn't star trek, and we aren't a bunch of noobs here.  I would wager majority of homecoming are Live veterans that just are happy the game is back with no barriers.

     

    Being productive is showing up, and teaming, and being awesome to and for each other.

     

    Yeah I read your revised OP and I still don't like it.  I don't think it's a horrible idea honestly, but it has no place IMO.

     

    I am more bothered by your repeated ignorance of why nobody wants what you are desiring, and how you are acting like we are the ones with the problem.

     

    We aren't the ones that's fixated on obtaining the illusions of what you seek.

     

    It's a complete waste of time, and doesn't add anything substantial to the game.

     

    At the end of the day people don't care about that.  They care about getting the Master of X Badges, and completing this TF on +4/8 solo, new content, doing it all with our friends.

    And I don't know why you keep ignoring those that want what I'm suggesting while saying no one wants it. They don't think its a waste,  and when when an idea that would keep them happy and not limit you comes up, you still shoot it doesn because its not what you want.

     

    You claim to be for everyone, but it doesn't seem that way. Im at least trying to find ways to make everyone happy.

     

    I'm sure you'd appreciate me asking for limits to be lessened if they were exactly like live,  which I would do.

    I want everyone to have everything, and could care less about how others view me in game by what I have or what I can do.  I try to be there for everyone, friends and strangers alike - I love to help anyone acheive goals or help through a problem.  Its all around in game.  Thats where its at.

    No one can have everything.  Case and point, people wanting some limits and others wanting none. Right now most things on game have a limit people enjoy, except costumes.

     

    I know there's even people trying to get rid of leveling limits,  which would kill this project faster than the have cake server is losing its player base. 

     

    And that's why im here.  Most players don't use the fourms and many I talk to at least want the current limits to stay,  if not a little more.

    Well no, that isn't what humanity did in Star Trek.  Once hunger, war, poverty etc. were eradicated, the driving factor became learning, bettering themselves and exploration, thereby contributing to humanity as a whole and making it better.  The pursuit of personal reputation had little to nothing to do with it. 

     

    As to the topic at hand, the beauty of everyone getting access to everything means no one is a "have not".   Everyone is a "has".

    A has with no work involved, In star trek, those that had built a reputation and knowledge had something those that didn't, didn't have.  Some people want to be productive. 

     

    Did you read my updated OP, or the new Idea i had? It should make everyone happy, weither want to work for something or not.

    I'm just saying take it for what it is, live in the moment and enjoy yourself without worrying about not being able to unlock your vazhilok beer bong hat.

     

    Try to stop missing the point, this is not nor will ever be anything like a console game.

    I wonder,  did you read my post where I had a new idea, or my updated main post?

     

    You might like it since I did my best to make everyone happy

      But within yourself.  If you can't be satisfied with that then nothing will ever make you happy because you will only keep requesting the line be moved.

    I don't know, I was mostly satisfied with CoH costumes unlocks; to far on the 'takes forever' side, but it was sweet when I finally got the reward.

     

    Although I bought the wrong vanguard katana the first time and they didn't offer refunds hahaha.

     

    Ended up making a costume just for that katana so it wouldn't be wasted lol

    I do watch Star Trek and I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about in your second paragraph here. 

    Then you didn't pay attention at all to how the human society worked.

     

    People strived to gain reputation,  not physical things.  So I tried reputation to the haves not being sad because of what someone else had arguments that was made to show why it was a bad one.

    You want a trophy? A souvenir?  Take a screenshot of something awesome you accomplished and cherish it because this game disappeared on us once it could do it again. That will last a lot longer.

     

    I'm with the crowd that wants it all now with little or no challenge so we can time travel back and relive our days of greatness in the past once again.

    Why do people go to a 'Look at me I'm better' mentality?

     

    I'm not going to explain why in want them all over again, you can check a past post, but that's a very negative stance to pin on someone you don't know. 

     

    Also, playing with a 'Here today, gone tomorrow.' Outlook is extremely negative too. Do you have no hope?

     

    If you're that worried about the game going away,  then you definitely shouldn't want a have it all with little or no challenge because that will kill this faster and more permanently than any Ncsoft lawyer.

    Don't try to restrict the enjoyment of others who have every right to play the game the way they want to for their entertainment.

    Theres limits in game right now,  and many enjoy the existing limits. Some people would enjoy limits in other areas of the game too, but are being restricted but not having said limits allowed. What about thier 'rights'? (hint, none of us have a right to enjoy the game how we want, if so hackers couldn't be banned from games)

     

    It's very confusing, but just like when people argue that not having the option of easy difficulty in games limits people from enjoying it, but then other people believe that adding in a easy difficulty would limit others from enjoying that very same game.

     

    Sometimes lines have to be drawn, and not everyone will like it, but you cant expect the otherside to not still ask about it or offer compromises.

    I would totally approve of base trophies. Right now bases are free, so everyone pretty much either makes their very own or doesn't care enough. I would be tickled to be able to put Lord Recluse's helmet from the 4th patron arc, for instance, as a display trophy. Kinda like a prize in a glass case.

    I would like those too! My idea wasn't as fancy, but imagine if they let you have a 3D representation of the badges acquired that you could put in your base! But then the following occured to me-

     

      If you only get them when something is acomplished,  as trophies (badges) are typically gained, is that now limiting those that want to build what ever base they want without accomplishing that task?

     

    If they're free for everyone then those people will be happy, but then they cant be considered trophies and would badges then have to be auto unlocked for everyone, and that would piss off all the badge hunters.

     

    So unfortunately, the best things is to not allow badge hunters to have a way to display badges or trophies in thier base from the arguments I've seen here.
