Darmian Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 That weird glitch where if a pet or an NPC ally kills the boss - or gets in the hit that counts as the kill shot - you don't get the clue! That needs fixing. Now, I mostly see it in AE, but I think it happened to me in game too, either that or the narrative just did not make sense.

It needs to be a click not a toggle *facepalm. Slams head into wall. I have mine bound to the keypad "/" key using powexec_toggleon. Destiny right next to it on the "*". Then I put my personal Lore adds on the keypad "+" using powexec_location self, so they just pop in right where I am, and I don't have to fiddle finding my mouse cursor when I need them badly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreah Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 When you complete the Keyes Island trial, and you don't get credit for Antimatter because your team didn't get the kill shot on him. Everyone in the league should. In fact, XP and other kill rewards ought to be shared across everyone in the league on a league scale task. Reduce them by the number of teams if we have to for balance. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turric Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 SHADOW SHARD! What a cool aesthetic implemented so poorly. So much wasted space. There should have been portals between islands, like the one in Firebase Zulu to get to the rest of the zone. Each island should have had a reason for going there. Just so much wrong with those zones. A better way to complete kill tasks when you're 50. There should be more variety of mobs in radio missions. Also, most factions should scale to 50. I want to kill Igneous bosses, but not at level 14. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreah Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 A radio mission in PI taking you to a Portal Corp gate and then on into a sewer; most likely in "The Sewer Dimension". A radio mission taking you to the AE Holo-thing. "I thought we were doing radios!?" A radio mission having the same Boss name as the previous. "Did he escape the police already?" C'mon, make up some more names already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's enough stuff in the game even without them but I keep making heroes and keep not finding the signature story arcs. I'm reliably given a contact for Graham Eastson, but not for the actual signature story arcs. I mean... if I DID care a lot I could look it up on the wiki, but it's still head-tilting. They are marked. Book markers on maps. The story also kind of directs you to where to go next as well. It isn't always obvious, but when you get there it becomes , oh yeah, kinda thing. edit: It _literally_ looks like an open book with a book marker in the book. Its red.

Coyotedancer Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 It can also go sideways pretty quickly if you're playing a mastermind who needs to really micromanage their pets (Ninjas, I'm looking at you guys, you crazy paper crack-monkeys. <_<) or who tends to be right in the middle of fights with them.

I just can't take "really cruel thing to do" terribly seriously there. Maybe it's some oldschool tabletop Dungeons and Dragons lingering on me,, when having foes who could Charm or Hold you was just part of the fun. Especially when the rest of the table was like "D'oh! They charmed <character name here>! Everybody dogpile him!" and "Nooooooo don't kill me!!!!". Also, maybe it's just because most games that I've played for the past 30 years, if there was the ability to do any kind of Crowd Control / Charm / Hold? I picked the kind of character who can do that. Not totally without exception, but a *lot* of the time. So a) I don't really see me being cruel to others when i use my abilites, and b) feeling like turnabout should be fair play means it doesn't feel cruel to me if i get mezzed. I'm usually just "doh! I gotta be quicker next time" / "gotta scan the group before I jump in!". Of course, I also have no great gripe against Sappers / SuperStunners either. Yes, they're devastatingly effective against me. Yes, I have to treat them as High Priority Targets. But I never avoid Malta or Freakshow or Carnies or any other faction just because of this, and I would consider it a major mistake if they removed mobs that use End Drain against players from the picture. 2 Roster: MTeague's characters: The Good, The Bad, and The Gold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TemporalVileTerror Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I think it's more of an issue with there being nothing to do while Held/Stunned/Slept. If, for example, Players received a mini-game of something akin to Simon Says which could be optionally completed to reduce the duration of hard Status Effect Powers, then it might actually go over a bit better. The Break Frees or Support and Survival Buffs that grant Protection would still work exactly as they do right now, but in this situations where a player is locked down and just sitting idle with absolutely no recourse, this would at least keep them engaged with the game, instead of feeling like somebody came along and yanked them away from the game. Some thoughts to explore, at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
