So the fan updated version of Mids now has VEAT's and more power fixes. The powers listed look interesting and in alot of cases remove the need to dip into power pools, which is nice.
That last fight didn't go as smoothly this time, but we learned a few things and for an attempt with no Vengeance, Shivans or Nukes it went okay. MoLRSF is certainly possible, but we'd all have to be on our best behaviors.

Interesting, I thought it wouldn't work with VEATs without a program update, not just a data update. Must've found a workaround. But I read that Mid is working on a real new version anyway.
Re: LRSFs - I'm sure we'll be doing more of them.

Well, if it's their 2th anniversary, why not! It seems so legit!
Heh when this guy started spamming me, I sighed at the thought of having to type that abomination of a name. Then 1/3rd of the way through it I remebered I could just hit backspace and change it to ignore =X
My account lapsed. Now I get to drive forty miles to buy a new time card because the local Gamestop no longer carries them. Yay.
I think it is super easy to get a debit card now. I think.
I have a debit card. Recently, my credit union got bought out and I was issued a new one. However, when I went to change my payment details, PlayNC somehow tripped Visa's fraud protection system, which caused Visa (and my bank) to freeze my entire bank account. This was in January. I've gotten most of my bank assets back, but they still won't authorize PlayNC. Oh, they say they do, but they don't.

VEATs are now unlocked on this slacker's account thanks to some binge weekend playing. Tried a couple on the test server pretty awesome Looking forward to I12 seems to be another solid update.
Yeah, I was not expecting a six month wait between I11 and I12. Which is what we've got now. More if it doesn't go live before the end of the month. Adding the VEATs to this issue may have slowed things down I suppose.
Probably slowed it down a lot but without the VEATs we would have been talking about how much failed potential this issue had. I mean powerset proliferation is great but the actual content for i12 is light.
Well, theres the arcs for the Midnight Squad, though I think there's only 2 per side. I played through the intro Hero arc, The Origin of Power and its pretty cool.
However, you're right about Cimerora. Its basically an empty box right now. No story arcs at all, just the TF and a random mission generator dude if you feel like beating up on romans.
The QoL fixes are substantially awesome, so that helps, but there really isn't any content to speak of. The VEATs will keep me placated but if it wasn't for them I'd have needed more Powerset Proliferation than what we are getting. I wonder what i12 will be like, they'll be more staffed up but I don't think full staffed and trained. i14 is probably going to be the first full fledged staffed up issue.
I'm fairly certain NCSoft is dumping money into staffing to make a paid expansion as well. I welcome it, but than I cut my teeth on EQ1.
Yea, I'm dissapointed at the news that a 15-level-range zone apparently only has 1 TF in it? If it wasn't for VEATs there'd be nothing to do.
What's kind of sad is that the entire zone was designed solely for the TF. According to Castle, the chances of there being much else added in are very, very slim. In the future, it's looking like we're going to be getting a series of one-shot zones like Cimerora that are connected to the Midnight Club and based around a single thing, like a zone event or a TF.

That is kind of sad.
I mean I don't need it to be jam packed, especially if they are making a bunch of ones like it but with different themes (maybe ancient china or colonial America or something), but I'd like at least three story archs for each side that can be done solo. I don't need unique art for each one, either. I can't imagine it takes that long to put in some simple story archs.
Then again us players are going to get to create our own soon, maybe we can fill up Cimerora.

Okay, granted, I've only played one for 25 levels, but holy fucking shit, Bots/Storm is just...ridiculously overpowered, at least solo. Seriously, with Hurricane, Snow Storm, Freezing Rain, and the KB from the bots' attacks it's pretty possible to keep enemies completely suppressed and unable to attack.
It also handles packs pretty well...seriously, bunch of bots just sitting in the "eye of the storm" and blasting away.
Hmmm. I'm more concerned about using up my freespecs before they get replaced... they always announce freespec dates in advance. Of course, that was going to be with or shortly after I12 launch, so they could launch it tomorrow and announce freespecs coming in a week, or something like that.

I already bought it, cause I am a consumer whore.

Me too but I'm trying to be less of a MMO consumer whore than I have been.
edit: Or Red Tomax's CoV Site. It has all the power information for VEATS in the Powerset quantification section.
no they won't
placate sucks

Placate's fixed in I12.

That is what I want
Wait, what, I thought Hero-1 said in the interview he did that there will be more stuff added to Cimerora in the future?
Edit: Yeah, I am dying for more slots here. Especially since I'll be getting five or so free ones.

I hope so. My last midterm is tomorrow morning.
But then I have Finals in 3 weeks.
They'd announce the actual launch of the issue as more than a maintenance, though, wouldn't they? o_O

Yay. Hopefully this is the issue launch, and not just a cure for the shitty way Virtue has been running of late.
