Oh man! All we get is a God **bleep** Commando Beret?! I mean, maybe It'd be
alright if it was the Commando pants. But the Beret has nothing, Hell,
NOTHING can stand next to Agent Sunglasses.



Oh man, not cool. I'll give 20 million for those sunglasses, even
though I'm a Zionite. Wait, are they even tradeable?
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!

Uhm, you can get all three orgs' rewards as any org member.
#10300003689 06/28/2006 18:21:15 Re: Image Retrieval - June 28, 2006
Yes... unfortunatly anyone can get the items. They arn't org specific.
#10300003690 06/28/2006 18:31:02 Re: Image Retrieval - June 28, 2006


ok i have one thing on my mind that is really bothering me, i was reading the details about the archive missions and the rewards you get for them, this is what i am concerned about, you get one token for each chapter, and sub chapter, for each org, thats 36 tokens total, plus you get one chapter reward for each org, thats another 12 slots, plus the 3 org clothing, in all thats a heck of a lot of space that most people just dont have. do you plan on increasing our inventory space or we gonna have to just juggle everything and hope we can get it all?

Earpiece is part of the glasses...and it has IS Regen (certainly has an advantage being the Master Shadow I'am)?  You sir, have made this a God among days.


Altho I wasn't here for any of those crits, if I can do 7 hours straight of nothing but Assassination missions, then I can deffinetely get these.

actually I was kinda pissed since when rarebit first said it, but since the machine item came out I feel like everyone will be running around trying to look like an agant.

This rocks!


Besides, it shouldn't be Org only. Everyone should be able to use it. If someone really wanted these AND they were Org specific someone would just grind all the reps. SMILEY


Also, not everyone will want to be an Agent. Ever heard of secret service? Any kind of tactical group uses a form of communication. That earpiece looks just like goverment issue. The great thing is whoever wants can use the earpiece to add to their outfit.


Heck, I can see all the Security outfits and earpieces in the movies from here on out!

Lets be honest here, if the items were only org specifc, can you imagine the complaining that would be done right now? These are really cool, machine missions first for me.

#10300003701 06/28/2006 23:28:34 Re: Image Retrieval - June 28, 2006
The point is for players to experience the old stuff firsthand, and reward them for it.

#10300003703 06/29/2006 01:13:22 Re: Image Retrieval - June 28, 2006


I have to agree, org specific would be kinda lame... like it's been said theres rewards for experiencing more of the game, which makes sense, but only rewarding you if you do 1/3 of the content and nothing for the other 2/3 doesn't.


Besides, the white hallways and meeting areas are org specific, that'll do us for now


Oh and im pretty sure sorrows just meant the secret service in general, he's right you know, its not only Matrix agents who have earpieces and shades.

#10300003710 06/29/2006 04:54:43 Re: Image Retrieval - June 28, 2006
Thank you Devs!!


There's no reason to complain about everyone getting the items.  I'm sure they'll be non-tradeable (like Collector Items) so if someone wants to run all the missions (41 I believe) get an item, then let them wear it proudly.


I'd rather see everyone running around trying to get all the items versus everyone standing around bitching about there being nothing to do.  Remember how active and exciting it was for Mega City when the PBs first launched?


'nuff said I think.  SMILEY

#10300003726 07/02/2006 00:00:23 Re: Image Retrieval - June 28, 2006
First off, Holy Crap!  Rarebit, can I take you and the devs out for lunch sometime as a way of saying thanks? :smileyvery-happy:



Second, this will help me in RP when my character talks to his crew on
the hovercraft without having to fiddle with the phone and look dumb
touching a non-existent earpiece.  :smileywink:



Third, A bunch of people are complaining that they're not
org-specific.  Don't we have org-specific, rep-based abilities in
the works?  Plus there are people that change orgs like underwear,
and having these items org-specific would get dicey.

#10300003727 07/02/2006 05:01:40 Re: Image Retrieval - June 28, 2006
I guess we should be carefull on what we wish for from now on. Kudos to devs for caring what the players want.

#10300003734 07/04/2006 01:10:21 Re: Image Retrieval - June 28, 2006

Nice... but I have a couple of comments to make...


1.)  Everyone should be able to collect them, but it would be nice if there was a bonus to using your orgs specific item.  For example, a Merv wears the earpiece/glasses and they are unbuffed...  a Machinist wears the earpiece/glasses and they get the buff. 


2.)  Why are the glasses and earpiece combined into one item?  ... my main generally wears red praveas... they're part of "who he is," but if I want to use the earpiece I have to wear the Agent glasses too?  Why was the earpiece not made into a "hat" item so that it could be worn with any style of glasses?
