I'm glad my quip made it in as the thread title  Still, anyone on the fence about this game, seriously, come play with us. I've been playing off and on since just after launch and I always have a good time hangin with my SA bros. This game is a terrible quagmire of godawful sexual weirdos in the "RP" zones outside goonsquad chat though.

Had some fun last night with the Lady of the Lake's hand.  She's good at holding swords.      The geometry isn't right for what I wanted to do, but I guess you get the point.

OneEightHundred posted:Really the main problems are that Blaster secondaries are total rear end Energy melee is pretty good as a secondary. You get a ton of buffs and the attacks are fun. Plus you get bright glowing fists and that poo poo is baller as gently caress  I find it fun, anyway. Regardless, who gives a gently caress. Play what you enjoy and find fun, who cares about numbers.

OneEightHundred posted:The melee attacks are also more of a problem than they used to be because of the type of enemies they've been adding. "Range is not defense" used to be this big common trope because everything has ranged attacks or will just run up and slap you, but then they added a bunch of high-level enemies that spam AOE attacks and AOE mezzes on your melee constantly, so now you get whacked even when you don't have aggro. Yeah, true enough. When I play my fire/em blaster, I hardly ever use the melee attacks. Hover and a couple minor defensive powers generally allow me to survive fairly well if the team is big enough to distract the mobs. If I have to wade into punching distance in situations like that, you know poo poo's gone seriously sideways and it's just a desperation ploy on my part. Sometimes it even works out! Range helps as long as you have tank types up front or controllers locking everything down, but you know that. Fireball and fire rain are nice because you can do that poo poo around corners. Line of sight IS a decent defense, at least, despite its extremely fleeting short term nature. Prevents massive alpha strike retaliation too. OneEightHundred posted:brb gonna make a spreadsheet and chart out fun factor on one axis and time spent dead on the other I know man, all I'm saying is everyone finds different poo poo fun. Sometimes it's cool being dead because it gives you time to crack stupid jokes. I actually died when I was in the middle of a mob last night to make a stupid joke. Prova can attest to that. Keep in mind that death is completely meaningless except in terms of time. There is no punishment or loss associated with it all outside the time sink. If you care about your personal time, man, are you playing the wrong kind of game.

I thought the living spells were pretty cool  Of course I try to mezz the gently caress out of anything before it can do unto me, so, I dunno, I'm biased or something. I liked their mission arc, at least.

Red's Carnival is my favourite. Open, easy to get like 4-5 groups close to each other so you don't have to move a whole lot. I just got into this whole thing and I love burnin and stompin dudes to death, the sound effects are so satisfying. But yeah, I don't make a lot of money at it. Mostly it's just to help pay forward a lot of the help I've gotten over the years.

Fearless_Decoy posted:I would like to run the Tin Mage task force at some point and go for the Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight badge. It's something that'll be fairly easy to get these days, since there'll be more than enough pets to nuke an AV without players touching ground. Anyone else interested? What exactly are the requirements and can I use this as an excuse to keep group fly?

S.D. posted:The badge requirement is 'no teammates taking damage from Director 11's (the AV in the first mission) trip mines (which he spams all around him as he runs around'. Sure, I'm down for that. Do we know if we get the badge immediately, or do we have to wait for the end of the task force? I'm good to go tonight once I get home.

I still hope we get something like that magic subset pool for all the origins. Tech, science, natural, mutation, all of them. That would be great. It might even be possible to build a character with only the basic powers in your main sets and still be viable as a player.

I mean, yeah, the story is dumb and all, but it's not a single giant run on sentence, and it's mostly correctly spelled and punctuated.

Cleretic posted:Speaking of Rad Armor, is there like, a Fallout convention right the gently caress next door to the player summit every year, or is there just one guy that's really loud who only plays this and the Fallouts? Because seriously, all three of the crowdsourced things so far have been straight-up Fallout rips. I've got no problem with it... well actually I do, 'cause the Retro Sci-Fi pack is poo poo and Rad Armor is the most ridiculously niche powerset concept. You take that back, the retro scifi pack fuckin owns and I will allow zero dissent on this issue.

Respecs are easy to get, but if you're that worried about it, level 4 is literally nothing in terms of time invested. Talk to a trainer, alter your appearance, and save the costume. Then delete him and remake it, saving the costume will save you the time it took to design it in the first place.

What the gently caress is this pay to win bullshit NCsoft? http://na.cityofheroes.com/en/parag..._content=boosts Some Marketing rear end in a top hat posted:+15% Max HP, +40% Regeneration, +20% Recovery. The survival Amplifier boosts regeneration rate, recovery rate and maximum hit points. Duration persists through defeat. Activates upon claiming via in-game mail. Only affects the caster and does not affect any pets. cannot be used in PVP zones. While this power is active you cannot claim another Survival Amplifier.

I wouldn't bother. Half of that poo poo is still buggy as gently caress and probably liable to change anyway. On the other hand, DO IT, BE THE SPERG YOU WERE BORN TO BE. On the other other hand, take another percocet or tylenol 3 or hyper aspirin or whatever you're taking for your back and stop caring so much for a couple hours

Also come on, the problem isn't that there's nothing to do, it's that you're burned out on it for now. Just take a break for a couple months and come back, that always works for me. Read some books, play other games, anything. Just don't force yourself to keep playing if you're not having fun right now. The itch will return (it always does) no matter what kind of ointment you apply, believe me, I am thorough with that kind of thing.
