Quote:Great idea!I vote they don't use email at all, but do everything through the registrar instead.
- The SG changes its setting to "Accepting Membership Applications"
- The character looking to join files a request form with the Registrar. This includes certain information about the applicant such as character name, global name, level and archetype, and a short note. Possibly also a link to pop open the character's Info Box, letting the SG view their description and power choices.
- The SG (probably any member that has invite privileges) decides whether to accept or reject the application.

Sorry to hear that you are leaving Paragon City, Dinah. It was always a pleasure to interact with you, and I wish you well.

Don't like that the new warehouse maps replace the old ones. Less varity now, which is not a good thing.

Welcome to the Champion server, Tux. Hope you enjoy your stay.

All of my characters. They work just fine without Inherent Fitness, and always have, so I see no need to change them. The fact that the Devs felt the need to force four powers on all characters in the game instead of just addressing the Endurance shortage some characters have is just sloppy work, IMO, and really takes away from the player's choice of how they build their own characters.

Really wish I could be here for this awesome event, but I have to be at a family function that night.
Hope everyone has a great time! -

I think it's "chump change" and I am well aware of how the world works.
I was raised dirt poor..electricity and water got cut off regularly, I ate food given to my family by charity, etc.
You know what? Sometimes you can afford things and sometimes you cannot. THAT is understanding reality.
Just because it is out of your price range does NOT mean it is overpriced.
Being poor SUCKS. It does not, however, mean that people who are not poor should not enjoy what they are fortunate to have financially or that they do not understand the real world. It just means that they are lucky enough to not be poor.
Your reading comprehension skills fail you.
I never wrote that that Booster Pack was out of my price range. I stated that for the value of what was contained within the Booster Pack was not worth ten dollars to me, which is a lot of money to some people (myself included). I choose not to purchase it because the price of the Booster Pack exceeds what I consider a good value, and in my opinion is overpriced. I never once stated that those who felt the pack was a good deal, and could afford it, should not purchase it. Heck, if you want it, and can afford it, regardless of what people think of the true value of it, then why not buy it? Why would I care?
And I stick by my point that for some people ten dollars is not chump change. You dont know me, or my origins (no pun intended), or my financial status, so for anyone to tell me, or anyone in my financial position, that ten dollars is chump change does not have a grasp of the reality of the real world just their own little self-absorbed corner of it. -
Quote:It must be nice to be able to look at ten dollars as "chump change." Some of us are not so fortunate to have money spilling out of our pockets as you seem to have. Some of us have limited monies available for entertainment purposes. Many of us are using our common sense to can see that this new Booster Pack has less value for the price of ten dollars than the previous packs, and thus will not be purchasing it simply because we can put that ten dollars to better, smarter use. The fact that you are unable to comprehend that not everyone has "chump change" to throw around whenever they want speaks volumes to your inability to understand the realities of the real world.I'm not.
Ten bucks is just chump change.
As noted, it's one movie ticket, or a paperback, or a couple of comic books, or a meal at a fast food joint.
I can afford the infrastructure necessary to run the game, I can afford the subscription, and I can afford to periodically drop a few dollars on fun perks for my characters. Not because I'm Bill Gates, because ten bucks is cheap.
Anyone who defines "wealth and leisure" as having a spare ten bucks to drop on a video game has bigger issues than the price point of this booster.
Good luck out there! -
Quote:This.Actually, both are personal. One for financial reasons and the other for opinion reasons. Both are also valid to the people with the issues. For you to dismiss someone's feelings about this Pack is just as inappropriate as it would be for other people to dismiss yours.

Quote:Since you seem to be swimming in money, why don't you purchase the new booster pack for all of us you can't afford it and the small amount of content provided within? It must be nice to live in your world of wealth and leisure. Not everyone is so blessed. But I guess you could not understand that from way up there on your high pedestal.They're aiming these at players who don't mind spending the equivalent of a movie ticket, six pack or frozen pizza to spruce up their characters, not people who think ten bucks constitutes a "pile of money".
Opt in, opt out, your choice.
But please don't pretend the price tag represents some kind of undue financial burden. -
Quote:Not every player of CoH has a pile of money to spend on these overpriced Booster Packs. Less content for more money equals no sale and unhappy customers. Why should I "be happy" about that?You still get the normal things with our monthly fee, these are just supplementary items, that are basically there for people who want extra stuff, and to help COH with their profits.
You should be happy that there are no temp powers, like ninja run, that would make you want to buy the pack, or make it a special pack that you "should" buy for an extra edge.
IMO I don't see anything wrong with these, since more profit=more coh/lasting longer and not dying. -
Quote:I could not agree more. Less content in the packs for more cost? Seriously, Devs?As I said in the other now locked thread, $10 for a pack that doesn't contain the amount of content available in other packs is just too much for me.
The way I see it, over time, the price for packs has relatively stayed the same but the content for the packs has decreased. Not cool in my opinion. -
I can't help but notice you fail to actually read the message boards or speak with anyone in the CoX community, otherwise you would be aware of the hatred for the pricing on the Party Pack and it's failure.
-
Ten bucks is high for something that only contains 5 new capes and 10 new auras compared to the previously Origin Themed packs (where were very much worth $10). You would have thought Marketing would have learned their lesson with the failure of the overpriced Party Pack. Few bought it because it was overpriced. This pack will suffer the same fate.

Also, didn't the cheerleader in front of the Steel Canyon university use to say a phrase or two when you passed her or clicked on her? She no longer says anything.

So first the Devs tell the players that they must have the Fitness power pool on all of their characters whether they want them or not. Now they ban certain Temp Powers from the CoP Trial. I sure miss the days where I, the player, had the ability to make the choice of what powers my characters could have and where and when I could use them.
Nothing says "fun" like having your freedom of choice taken away from you. -
Choose the Wedding Pack.
The Party Pack is to far overpriced and you get nothing but eight emotes. In fact, I hope the Party Pack is a miserable failure because of this. -
Nope. The Devs have not commented on it at all. This is a pretty widespread problem affecting a lot of players, myself included. At this point I wonder why I'm bothering to pay a monthly subscription fee for a game that offers new zones that look awful due to a glitch the Devs cannot even be bothered to address publicly.
