  1. None if NCsoft doesn't release the rights to the game.

    Right. Okay. That's not unsettling or unstable or anything :\

Let the real VIP's have their last go without a bunch of 'VIP noobs' stomping around. There is much more to the game than I can do in the allotted time left already. I am content with that.
    Ya chilly up on that pedestal?

    I actually prefer the graphics of CoH to other, more modern games. And those graphics and resolutions were only improving. I especially hate this modern day trend to make everything look dull and colorless, or use 100% bloom on everything to make it look like the sun's constantly going supernova.

    They just said don't bring up PvPers, not the system itself. From the sounds of your list, though, you may as well just delete everything and add "City of Heroes" to it.

    They described it as being like a Personal Story like what happens after an arc's over, only it's a whole chain of missions where you experience it all through Scirocco.

    I think ya might need to work on those anger issues, pal.

NOW dont care about it. I'm doing worrying looking for mistakes. We all make them and if they want to act like they dont then they can act like that but we all know everyone makes mistakes. And many people make more mistakes than me. Way more. And yet, people can ignore them, but cant even mispell something as simple as per se without some grammar nazi coming along. I'm dont talking about it. I tried to bend backwards for that spelling stuff, I even used word to check mistakes but if it's one thing after another after another they continue to find, why should I put in this effort for anything if they can even show me a little common decency of fairness? Why should I show any decency at all if they cannot show me any? So now I'm at that point that I'm saying spelling mistakes and all, cant read it tough. My patience has worn out in that regards. I spell check and have to proof read official papers at work 40 hours a week, day in day out to make sure that the legal stuff and papers to higher up look as official as possible. I get paid for that. That is WORK. Here is not work, but some certain people seem be trying to make it seem as much like work as possible and guess what, they aint paying crap not even a little fairness. So you know what? I quit. I'm not letting anyone make this feel like work. I'm going write how I want make mistakes and leave them be, and format the way I see fit. If they make a deal out of it since they cant even over look "persay" and have to make a big deal out of nothing, then fine then, I'ma stoop to their low level and make a big deal about it. But I'ma not eyt goign to stoop so low that I'ma goign to go around looking only mistakes in their post like mine and ignore what they are writing. Cant yet bring myself to that low of a standard where I get my jollies, like some here, going around correcting only one person mistakes and dismisses everyone elses and to add salt to the situation. Expect me to sit there and take it. Hell no! And not all of my posts have mistakes in them, but always put more effort into it put more effort into put more effort into when people find one mistake. Why not go tell that to everyone else that make mistakes. Last I checked this was CITY OF HEROES. NOT FREAKING ENGLISH CLASS WHERE PEOPLE THAT ARE PURE HYPOCRITE LIKE THEY NEVER MADE AND GRAMMAR MISTAKES IN THIER MISABLE LIVES HAVE THE RIGHT TO JUDGE ME JUST BECASUE I MISPELL THINGS. ESPECIALLY SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AND LITTLE ASK PER FREAKING SE! GOD DAMN! I SWEAR all of this over per se. I SAID I FREAKING SAW THE MISTAKE! IF YOU CANT BOTHER TO CORRECT OTHER PEOPLE, DONT GO OUT OF YOUR GOD DAMNED WAY TO CORRECT ME AND THINK I'll be OK WITH IT.
    not yelling at you, Lucky666. I think I just had it taking this **** all of the time day and day out trying to be nice, trying to let it go, but no they wont stop. But anyways only have to put up with it for not much of a long time. Then that's it. I still wont let them ruin my day. no. They try all the tactics they want I'm going to be here until the 30th to see the game off. At first, for the community and maybe say goodbye but now it's purely for me. as it's obvious they dont give a crap about me so why give a crap about them. I put in so much effort to save the game, even convinced husband, who despises games, to put a large sum of money away just in case that what it takes. But screw that, what the hell am I saving? So people can continue to focus only on my mistakes? What sane person would do that? Not me, that money is goign to better use now. I'll just sit back and watch the game burn and watch the fireworks come NOV 30th. Where ever people like that go after that, I hope they can somehow rebuild COX or some semblence at least that means they aint on other games ruining the community.

    Honestly Iunno if they make enough to comfortably have a large studio without any sort of publisher, but that would be cool if they could pull that off.

    Still, though, doesn't change the point it'll take time.

    Negotiations take awhile. They gotta talk NCSoft into releasing the IP, find a good publisher that is interested in the game and has a good reputation, possibly set up a new studio of developers since some of the old ones have found new jobs, figure out finances and budget, manage some advertising to pull in old players that left or new players that have never heard of the game, etc. etc. Like you said, it's only been a few weeks. We've got 'til November 30th, and even then it may take a little longer than that to set up the game again. This isn't a small thing we're talking about, and no one's gonna say anything official until it's known for 100% fact that the game will be saved with no possible issues popping up.

    This **** takes time, so stop being a Debby Downer and grow some patience. We'll find out for sure when the time comes, which is a good couple of months from now.

    A simple "Proof, please?" would've been fine. Didn't have to turn on the tl;dr rant mode.
  15. As long as at least a couple old members are still on the team or the spirit of the game is kept alive by a team with similar ideas, it's fine. If Retro Studios, a company completely seperate from Rare, can come out with Donkey Kong Country Returns and capture the same feel and excitement of the older games, I'm sure a new team could do the same for CoH. They may even do better and improve on a lot of the faults CoH had.

    Remember when Cryptic abandoned CoH and left us with a shell of a development team? If it weren't for NCSoft deciding to stick with CoH and help them through the rough patch CoH would've died right then and there.

    Also all our money actually went to NCsoft, not Paragon Studios. NCSoft then paid Paragon's employees. They also didn't "get sick of us." They screwed up and lost a lot of money, so they decided that, in order to make that money back, they needed to shift their focus onto their newer, shinier, more popular games. They're no more nor less evil than any other business out there trying to stay alive.

  20. Not everyone would want to be leveled to 50 so quickly. I doubt they would do that at the risk of upsetting those folks.
