  1. Honestly they should just remove mission doors from echoes entirely. Not entirely sure why they left valid mission doors in any of the echoes.
  2. Download the NClauncher from your game name in the master account site.

    Subscriber Beta is an installer option on the launcher.
  3. My favorite name grabs:

    Polly Anna
    1.21 Jigawatts
    Fossil Fuel (still one of my favorite name grabs; earth/fire dom)
    Cheryl Noble
    Storm Season
    Lilliput
    Guggenheim
    Magnificent
    Psi Ren

    Ninja Run and Beast Run don't do anything to your toggles. You can run them and all your toggles for as long as you like (or as long as you have enough endurance, if it comes to that).

    Chimera is anti-Manti. Sorry, Chimera isn't even close to the fastest thing alive.

    Also, his costume is boring. (And so is Manti's.)

    Just so no one gets the wrong idea in the future when reading this thread, you don't have to do any specific "theme" of radio missions. Just doing radio missions is all that's necessary.
  7. The Ouro portal is technically a pet. It has always been so.
  8. Probably the same thing as this, as I'm having the same issue as described by the OP in said linked thread.
  9. Madeleine Casey, Maria Jenkins, Crimson, and Unai Kemen introduce Harvey Maylor.

    I like the comeback, after they have went through and did a full sweep to attempt to fix every account - just like I said they could do.
  11. Warrior farm is no longer available in the "real world" Maria Jenkins arc, "A Hero's Epic" (post-GR version). It's part of the fifth mission in the flashback version, "A Hero's Hero" (the pre-GR version). There's no way to keep that mission and also do other missions.

    Just let ur characters alone while we activate toogles, on the run. No annoying stop for activation while moving.
    All self-affecting-only and ally-affecting-only toggles activation animations are interruptible (meaning they don't root you, and will not play if you're doing something else like running or playing an emote).

    edit: I moved these commands to the obsolete list
    I use requestexitmission all the time (it's bound to CTRL+E by default). It works.

    I love it. I love moving faster without spending endurance to do so.

    As said, no, that won't do anything. However, there is a setting to not send buff numbers, which might drop transfer data significantly in large-gathering settings (ship raids, big leagues, etc).
  16. In the NCLauncher, right click CoH, select Properties. Put the flag in the extra command line box.

    Nah, it's entirely possible to farm yourself (or someone else) to 50 in a day or two.

    Of course, if that's what you do, though, you cannot complain that the game isn't interesting or that you can level to max in a day or two.

    You know, it doesn't have to take a few hours. Some of my characters have a hundred hours or more on them, and they're not 50 yet.

    Taking time to smell the flowers is what extends your game play. If all you do is push for XP, then of course it's not going to be a good ride.
  19. To see for sure when you got points, log into the NCsoft Master Account site, click on "Billing Summary" on the right side, then at the bottom it will tell you when you were awarded points. Verify against your billing details to see if you're actually missing some points, or are just having a derpy moment.

    Interesting. I switched it and my name flipped to white in the welcome blurbs up top, I figured it would stay white when posting, but the gold looks good with my forum style edits so I changed it back before coming back to the post so all I had was the confirmation that my name went white. Huh. Wonder what's up with that then.

    A free player that's displaying as a goldname IS a VIP (as far as the forum is concerned). If they had an avatar and/or signature before they went Premium, those come back, and the PM system is temporarily made available to them, just like how they're given access to forum sections that they shouldn't have.
    It is astoundingly unlikely to ever catch someone else with a gold name who is actually a freebie, since the account service checks periodically (maybe on each cookie check?) and reverts them to white. It typically takes as little as opening a thread to kick them back to white.

    Interesting. No, it looks like all VIPs were swapped over to gold by default, but there is an option to turn off the gold. So it's the other way around (and most folks seem too lazy to do anything).

    (Occasionally freebies will see themselves as gold name, which allows them to post in non-access places, when the account server doesn't sync up correctly to the forum.)


    EDIT: Best way to see if VIP or free/preem: click their name and see if you can PM them. Only VIPs can get PMs.

    Uh, as already stated at least two times already, it does describe this in the store.

    The 50% XP Booster (1 hour) increases XP Gain by 50% for one hour of in-game time. Activating the 50% XP Booster also grants a Shared 50% XP Boost Temporary Power that can be cast on an ally (that lasts for one hour of in-game time). NOTE: Once activated, an XP Booster cannot be turned off. Multiple versions of an XP Booster may not be used at the same time. It has no benefits for characters who have XP Disabled or are at Level 50. This has NO effect on Incarnate XP Gain.
  23. Try this: change the bolero to a cape with the same color options, set your SG colors, then change back to the bolero. I'm on my phone so I can't check myself. lol

    First Ward and Night Ward bring the Praetorian level range up to 35. A Praet doesn't need to set foot in Primal until after that. Although technically, you can level to 50 in Praetoria by exemplaring but that requires at least one other person.
  25. 1. Team-up Teleporter warps you to the contact.
    2. You have to go back.
