I got super-generous (also drunk) during one of the last events (Christmas, maybe), and bought like a dozen of those presents that give something to twenty people near you. It felt nice while I was blasting out stuff to people I didn't even know.

Sekenr posted:Frankly I don't get why so many people wear suits ingame, its not like your character works in an office A suit is one of the easier ways to actually look decent for a male character. You're guaranteed pants and a coat that actually match their colors, it's fairly easy to get coordinating shoes even if you don't buy the cash shop dress shoes, which only leaves the shirt as the sticking point, and that's only an issue if you want a tie. If you want to mix and match, however, you're left with a weird variety of clothing that isn't internally consistent. A given color could be any of five different shades, the model for a shirt is tucked or untucked seemingly at random, and it's likewise a crapshoot whether a given pair of pants will go over or under your boots (Especially a problem with the Wassailer boots, love the actual shoes, hate the tight black calfsocks). And personally, if I'm going to be out fighting evil, I'm going to look either as snazzy as I can or as ridiculous as possible. And since I don't have a horse head, it's time to be sophisticated as hell.

I feel like this could be the tag line on a Lumi recruiting poster. E: These are the two outfits I bounce between, and yes I know I need a hat for the latter of the two. Maybe when I give funcom money for issues I'll add in a bit more to get the red fedora to finish the look. Kyrosiris fucked around with this message at 15:58 on Mar 23, 2015 |

We needed that tacticool headpiece after the INSULT that was the horsemask. What? Some players can't play the game because of issue 6? Doesn't matter the horsemask is more important! ~TSW pubbies and Funcom

Just thought you'd all like to know. The Enhanced Player Experience pack is now available to existing accounts. Just login on the portal, go to Account Offers and Upgrades, and choose The Secret World - Enhanced Player Experience Pack (still $20). TL;DR: Issues 5-8 for $20 if returning player, or TSW + 5-8 for $20 if new player. alfheimwanderer fucked around with this message at 22:11 on Mar 23, 2015 |

xutech posted:So that's a good deal worth getting? I have no idea, but since I'm liking the game so far. TSW itself runs around $20-30, depending on the place you got it from, while the Massive Edition is a cool $60 (TSW + Issues 5-7 and a couple of virtual goodies) So for a new player, the Enhanced pack is an absolute steal (about 70% off). If you have TSW already, but none of the Issues (and no Funcom points), its still a decent deal, yeah. Plus, if you haven't gotten your free points from finishing 30 missions yet, do that, buy Issue 9 with your points, and then buy the Fall of Tokyo pack for another $20, for everything Tokyo has to offer. alfheimwanderer fucked around with this message at 10:06 on Mar 24, 2015 |

I enjoyed 6 and 7 as well. 8 isn't good. 7 is probably my favorite. It starts as one genre and ends up going a completely different way at the end. 8 is hot garbage. Through and through. Do you like TSW combat? Do you like wave defense missions? Do you like doing a wave defense mission that's locks to 15 minutes and has you defending multiple spots on a map? Then issue 8 may just be the issue for you! For the rest of us it's a waste of potential because new scenarios are never coming. Ever.

Wave defense would be fine if you had control over where you defend, and if deployable tools weren't so clunky to use and partially subject to RNG.

frgildan posted:I've just logged back into the game is there any way for me to tell if I already own any of the issues before I buy the new player pack? it's really annoying, but not really. Sometimes in the store, the price will be zero, if you've bought it, but only if you bought it directly from the store. If, for instance, you got it as part of the "massive edition" it still lists the regular price. I don't know if it will let you purchase it again.

You could also check Delivered items or inventory to see if you have any of the Maps that come with Issues and mark locations of interest. Each pack has one, except 8: Issue 5 - VIP Map, Freeborn Issue 6 - Tactical Map, Marya Issue 7 - Council Map, Preda
