Display Name Posted Wednesday at 01:54 AM Posted Wednesday at 01:54 AM Yes, this is tongue-in-cheek. Stop. Breathe. I just need to draw (serious) attention (again) to this (valid) objection so I'm now using tasteless humor. Now continue... My toons are either Vigilante or Rogue. That's just the way I roll. But when I'm a Vig and I'm in Pocket D I get this *extremely* annoying popup (attached) when I attempt to exit to ATLAS PARK!? Excuse me? Am I not blue enough? This happens in the Midnighter Club too, when I attempt to exit to one of the available blue zones! This is discrimination on the basis of color! It's that simple. The same goes for when my toon is Rogue. *Every* zone that is "Blue Supremasist" or "Red Supremasist" is racist against Vigilantes and/or Rogues. Regardless of your offense against my tasteless (but extremely funny to the "right" people) humor, this is a valid objection. The pop-up is annoying. So, while this post is tongue-in-cheek (remember I said that?) I would appreciate it if I could simply do what any blueside/redside "pure blood" would be allowed to do and never experience it. I'm willing to compromise with Vigilantes experiencing this pop-up when entering red zones and vice-versa, But "come on, man!?" What made it necessary in the first place? Just answer that *one* question. Give me a good answer and I will erase the contents of this post faster than... Well... As fast as I can (editing the original post to ensure context is maintained from the answer, of course.) If you've read this far without banning or reporting me, I appreciate your patience! And I beg your forgiveness if I've offended you. No, seriously. I just wanted awareness of a real problem. 1 1 2 4 @Super Whatsit Superbase passcode (Excelsior) is "passcode-6475" It's all a Nemesis plot. But not everything is a Nemesis plot!
Rudra Posted Wednesday at 02:03 AM Posted Wednesday at 02:03 AM Well, to be fair, as a rogue or vigilante, you can go to either side. So making sure that is the side you want to go to rather than the other side does make sense to check for. 3 1
lemming Posted Wednesday at 05:02 AM Posted Wednesday at 05:02 AM Yea, same thing happens if you exit the midnight club. They need to add an option such as the "Hide Cooperative Zone" Dialog. 7 3

There's no need for an additional pop up to confirm it as you won't be attacked upon immediately setting foot on the other side. If you did click by mistake for whatever reason, you can always turn around and go right back into the Pocket D entrance. 3 COH Music: Origins & Archtypes, Heroes & Villains, Croatoa

If you did click by mistake for whatever reason, you can always turn around and go right back into the Pocket D entrance. This is one of the reasons why, some months ago, I made the suggestion to remove the "are you sure?" confirmation popups from the zone transfers other than to the PvP zones. First, there's nothing useful that they do except force an extra mouse click when, as you say, you've already told the game you want to change zones (I have the same issue with the program Process Explorer, which has a 'do you really want to restart?' confirmation, just to make sure I didn't accidentally click on File, then click on Shutdown, then click on Restart). Second, the confirmation prompt is inconsistently applied. RWZ is a coop zone, and you get the confirmation when going red- or blue-side if you are not full villain/hero -- but if you go from RWZ to a base, and then use a base portal to go red- or blue-side, you just transport to the zone. Similarly, leaving Ouroboros doesn't have any confirmation prompts, nor does the TUNNEL system -- you just aren't given the option to travel to a zone you're not a proper alignment for. Removing the prompts altogether streamlines play a bit for the people who play characters of more... flexible... alignments. 3 1

The OP had asked for a reason why the popup was there. I gave a reason why it could be there. On previous threads about this, I never argued against taking away the popups, so obviously I am not against removing the popups. However, a possible reason why they may exist was asked for and I gave a possible reason.

As long as they can do it without making it yet another chore for Null the Gull. That birdbrain is already overworked. If that had to be the case, it would be better to skip the option and just remove it. 1

On Goldside when entering certain doors (especially Underground) you get this "ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO GO THROUGH THIS DOO???" I Fing clicked it didnt I? For the twelfth time today!
