    Mentor Project

    Bump !

    The idea would be for use mentors to be available at the launch of Freedom to snag new players are they execute the tutorial, or through the help channel, and take them through the new sewer trial. Along the way, we would teach them the basics of how the game works, beyond the in game tutorial, answer questions, and at the end would hand out inf to get them started. I was thinking half a mil. Some like myself could provide that amount on their own, but we could collect some for those who might need it.

    Any thoughts? We'll probably need to come with a very basic list of things to cover, just to keep us all on the same track.
    Since Premiums players are coming in this week, and Free players (Freems? Freeps?) are not too far off in the future, this could be a really cool idea.

    Question: I heard that free players will not be able to Trade with other players, so giving inf might not be possible ? If that's the case, do we know if we can at least drop Enhancements (ex. level 5 Training: Damage) that they could either sell or use ?

  4. Imperious Interruptus - getting a mapserver error (or getting disconnected for any reason) during an Imperious Task Force.

    ... or this
  5. If you mean the pack of 6 Character Transfers for 480 Paragon Points, it's limited to 1 per account:

    or as Avatea puts it in her announcement:

    And for the first week ONLY, you'll be able to get:
    6 Character Transfers for 480 Paragon Points or $6! (one time purchase)
  6. Going Commando - Turning off all your defensive powers' toggles when running very low on Endurance - hoping you'll survive with just your Hit Points and your "Always On" powers...
  7. I stand corrected, Kat...

    Is this working as intended?
    I haven't touch these items in a while (my base is kinda spartan now), but from what I remember, once you have claimed them you can put as many as you want in your base as long as you have the prestige to pay for them.

    According to the official Head Start announcement, it should be on sale for 2 weeks.
  12. Whenever I'll have the time to log in, I will probably buy

    1 Rename Token first,
    then the six-pack of Transfer tokens that's on sale.

    Beam Rifle at 20% off is tempting... I'll see if I have enough points left.

    Short answer (IANAL): Local laws probably prohibit it.

    Same as in Quebec



  14. AAAAAAND, THEY'RE OFF !!!!
  15. Just something I'm pondering...

    With VIP players getting a free Global Handle Rename token as part of COH:Freedom's Head Start, are any of you thinking of changing your Global ?
  16. I don't like that I had to register with (and get spam from) gotcast, but for The Frog I'm willing to make some sacrifices....

    Voted.
  17. I have the same error message on my older Dell Laptop and I just:

    1) make sure I have the latest drivers for my laptop
    2) disregard the error message.

    The game does not seem to bright when it comes to recognizing what "latest" means, so as long as the game runs OK to you, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
  18. Humm... I could bring the Grey Templar, he was level 29 last time I checked.

    I'd have to change his costume, but could he still be The Medic, or one of its sub-tropes ? 'Cos that's what he does, after all...

    I was about to say "the Incarnates stuff", but since you don't have Going Rogue yet, the point is probably moo't....

    In any case, let us know how it turned out.

    VIP Server?

    I don't particularly care for the VIP server, anyway. I don't see what would be so "extra special" about it. I feel Freedom and Virtue will still wind up the heaviest populated servers, and if a VIP server will ease the load off of the people who frequent those two, then so be it.

    So... There's my two cents on the subject. Others will probably be more upbeat about it, though, so don't let my opinion on matters deter you. I wish you the best of luck to get a following for this idea. If there's one thing I like, it's the sense of community this server usually exudes, and if we were to export that to the VIP server, then I would be quite pleased.
    We must be psychic twins... basically all he said:

    I don't care for the VIP server, I will have 2 accounts (1 VIP and 1 Freemium) and enough alts to manage on Protector to last me a long while.

    (As an aside, I did not even roll a toon on Vigilance, even though my native tongue est le Francais...)

    But if you want to start this, more power to you - don't let me (or Grey) stop you.
