C'mon, own up.

You guys wanted L2-4 misisons so you can expand into L4 and how many do we have?

TWO.

Was there a point to us making these missions or do you just to see like us wasting our time?

Pretty sure those who have the capability to make Level 4s left them as Level 3s so they can still use them.

This missions have been made, weeks ago.
They spawn automatically when an L4 is active.

Im just wondering what the delay is.

The point Psychout was making is that they have gone to the trouble to make the Lv 4 missions yet people aren't upgrading their bots

I say we should shun those who can but are not upgrading

Could be no other commanders are able to make them? Could be that they don't want the rest of HMW using them as xp generators. I don't know man. I'm still at Level 1.

half my bots 2 the rest are nearing level 2, i'd be happy to make a level 4 if I could.

I do know those 2-4 missions are being used. Seems like half the missions I see are 2-4 when my level 2s are active. I'm kinda happy I'm only fighting other 2s/3s in those instead of fighting a bunch of level 4s but maybe thats just me.

Yeah, Im still at L2 and could do with some bigger targets.


This is not to start a flame war or to admonish anyone (ill close it up faster than crazyfists on a weekend padlock bender if it does), I'm just curious what the delay is, we've got L3's with over a million xp out there.

Surely they could be making more and helping their team mates out by levelling up?

Well, the cheapest config for level 4 is 678K, I'm still at 442K with my top bot, and the Top 22 would be able at the moment to be level 4.

That's a very good point, let's go one step further.

There are two Level 4 builds at reasonable XP for the top characters. Obviously more XP makes these even stronger and these builds are not just barely making it to Level 4, they are optimized given the current game and to use XP as efficiently as possible.

So, there's the gauntlet; who's got the bolts?

Good to see some people got back to where they were pre-reset.

Good to see I'm not the only one wondering where the 4s are.

I'm more than happy to upgrade some of mine to level 4's. However, I am not going to leave them as open XP targets for those around me who are choosing to throttle theirs.

Most of the entire top 25 Cons/bots can all upgrade to level 4, minimum.

So, When RoS, Conjourous, Silverbolt, RKO Level up, I'll be glad to do so as well. It would be foolish of me to level all mine up alone to serve as XP fodder with which the aforementioned players could use to climb over me with.

More to the point, the level 2-4 missions are still serving their purpose. They are providing more evenly matched missions.

I'm sure if you stepped up to be a leader, and show them that level 4 isn't something to be afraid of, they'd follow suit, or we'd just make fun of them until they did too.

Yep, that's one way it could go down...

Or, all the players with the ability to level up to level 4 can publicly agree to all level up. I'd sign that pact.

There a lotta trust here isnt there?

What your saying makes sense GS but they could say the same thing,
really as the top player in the game you should go first, not to mention you're so far ahead of everyone else it would be silly to worry about them climbing over you

I meant this. This is a discussion, not an argument, no more outbursts like that please.

GS, you do realise that as the highest ranked of all the players they are probably just waiting for you to level up so they have a challenge...

So, anyway, is anyone alse within the top 25 willing to step up to GS's challenge?

I leveled a couple more up just now. That ought to get the ball rolling...

A couple more is better than none but why not just uprade all of them?

Good work dude. Believe me when I say Id love to be back up there with you.

Now, lets hope the rest follow suit.

What is this mystical level 4 you speak of? I'll be happy if I can get all my bots to level 3 before V2 comes out.

Chronic wrote:A couple more is better than none but why not just uprade all of them?

Well, for one, not all are eligible to upgrade. Some builds are more costly than others...

fair do's then

now to start nagging at the others...

How expensive is Buzzsaw's build when you're leveling up ones below him with the same alt modes?
