New efforts!

Agge, if it keeps up I'd just temporarily lock the thread and delete the whole line of conversation. It's going nowhere but in circles.

Aggelakis · July 13, 2014, 10:22:45 PM

About to.

I don't believe the majority of those players are doing this out of any sense of malice. Apparently, I'm in the minority opinion around here.

Oh I believe that. But if they are made aware of the possibility that certain actions could hinder the return of the game and they keep performing that action....I gotta question intelligence.

I suppose chilling out could harm an ego perhaps? I don't understand machismo to be honest.

CS, stop. Just stop. Now. Please.

I stopped the moment you let me know it was your official desire not to express that sort of thing around here. Now, I'm complaining about the way you are running things. And everyone else apparently hates me now. I'm trying to express that I would not have done it in the first place if I had known.

So yes. Please stop, OK? I'm sorry.

I think Groucho said something that may apply here:

Get those folks on FB to fake it for a while. ;)

Ah, i missed a few newer posts while tossing this together due to having to move a car so a roomie could head to band practice. Eh, while i'm reluctant to delete this post myself i won't be put out if a mod does it for me.

Quote from: CoyoteSeven on July 13, 2014, 08:47:13 PM
I can't help it. I'm a Marxist, so that means I'm always defending the little guy. Needless to say, this puts me at odds with quite a number of people.

So what does that make Nicodamus and i? In the context of this deal we're "little guys" and you most definitely are not speaking for us. In fact i'd dare say you're speaking to the opposite of what we want. In what way would encouraging and/or participating in people aggravating NCsoft into dropping the deal be defending us? Honestly i'm not well versed enough in the esoterica of Marxist theory to understand. Your position is that you know better than everyone else what they really need and/or deserve to the point that you ignore or denigrate anyone who disagrees? Hang on a tic, i think i get it... "little guy" only refers to anyone who doesn't speak at all? As soon as anyone speaks up and doesn't agree they stop being the little guy you so proudly defend and become the other?

Quote from: CoyoteSeven on July 13, 2014, 09:45:06 PM
I would like to make the observation that you have not made that at all clear until this moment. I saw nothing on this thread that said we should all shut up until the ink has dried. Nor do I see a banner up top that pleads with us all to remain quiet until the deal is done. This thread grows too fast for me to keep up with every single post, and nor do I read it every day. If it's truly your desire that we all keep silent then it's only fair that you make sure that's communicated to absolutely everyone.

It's been repeatedly said in and around the replies to your posts that the best thing the fans can do right now is keep it low key until the deal is finished. i cannot conceive of plausible way you could be writing all these replies and still miss the repeated requests for civility. In fact you repeatedly rail against these posts you never noticed. Or something? And people are only asking you to be silent now because you've repeatedly made it clear you have no intention of toning it down because trying to loudly spit in NCsoft's face while they're negotiating a sale is what the little people want because doing so will somehow help them get the game back. The call was for civility, not silence, but you refused to entertain the idea of being civil because silent little guys have spoken to you.

QuoteThis is your space and if you don't want people saying certain things then that's your prerogative. I'll note that I haven't actually made any deliberately personal attacks on anyone here, though I have made my feelings for their opinions known. There are some here who haven't done the same with regards to their responses to me. But now I understand why I got called a troll. You thought I knew, but I didn't. If it is that important, then make a banner or a sticky or something.

Right then. Well at least you've managed to avoid making any sort of ad hominem attacks yourself...

He's going to go mad with power! What have you done?! He'll turn CoH into City of Ironwolves!

Every costume part is related to wolves and/or iron! Wolf Armor is the only defense set!

What have you done

Asking CS to stop applies to everyone else, too. Let's go back to reminiscing about how dumpster dive farming was OP.

EDIT: Or discussing how Ironwolf will go mad with power. That is also acceptable.

Bickering. Stop it. Just stop. Topic back on track, please. Talk about game. Talk about possible mechanic changes, good and bad.

Or cosmetic changes, of which I have two to note though they might be difficult for such old code and limitations of the engine.

I always thought Super Speed and Super Jump needed unique animations, especially Super Speed. The sped up normal run cycle is just so silly looking. If I can say one nice thing about DCUO and CO, the Super Speed animations in both of those looked really good. CO's Super Jump? I liked the big arching stride and flailing through the air.

But maybe some people like the normal animations, eh? If you do, that's fine. Some might say the base game power animations always looked bland but I think there's a quality to them in that respect that helps leave their execution up to interpretation by the player for their character concept.

Maybe it's because I just watched "Warm Bodies", but I think if the game comes back the Necromancer Zombies should be updated with modern clothing ... or at least red hoodies. :D

My first lvl 50 was a fire/fire tank dumpster diving was awesome, stacking badguys up and killing 10 guys with 1 single target hit was so op, hated when the reduced the agro number and put the fear on burn it totally ruined that character for me.

PS: I miss Firesword circle ;D
