Fire Lilly,
I'm so sad that you are leaving. Even if I have not met you or know you, I wish we could have played together! I can sense that you are fun and nice to team with! Your stories have touched my heart and it made me cry and sad at the same time, reminds me of my newbie days. Unlike you I did not join any fancy SG because I got picked up by a random Super Group before I could start my own.
CoX is my first game ever, except for The Sims. Joined close beta and 2004, I'm also bored of the game, but I have found my new obsession, Base Editing. If anyone knows me, they know I have quit my old SG recently and started my own SG. I have 2k prestige left and still waiting for "Prestige Conversion Fix." Waiting for the fix is a bit of a downer. So I'm bored again...
I am looking forward to Going Rogue, and will try to not get bored. Would love for you to come back someday and fall in love with the game again!
I'm mostly looking forward to the Psionic Mastery for my Dominator so she can finally be pure "Mental Poweress." Unfortunately I will not be making new toons to play Praetorian content, but I will wait for I19 for the Incarnate system so I could just explore the City and [Walk] all day in the streets with my main lvl 50 character. Switching sides is not for me too, because the game does not encourage you to switch and the benefits are not good. I am looking forward for the PvP especially RV, when Going Rogue comes out!
The community here is awesome with the exception of the new pvp community, that I used to join and love, not anymore... I wish you all the best. Hope you find your new home. Stay goofy and eat more cakes!

The only thing that bugs me was, someone asked about "PRESTIGE" conversion in the first round then second round and promised to check on it, and nothing has changed...
-
They did mention changing it or at least looking into it though... *cross fingers*
-
Please fix the Influence/Infamy to Prestige conversion.
As of now the current conversion is:
$10,000,000 = 20,000 Prestige.
1 cabinet costs 100 prestige.
1 Plant costs 100 prestige.
1 Fluorescent Light costs 500 prestige.
Walmart is cheaper....
Many base builders consider base building end content and fun. Not all base builders want to make it on the top 100 SG/VG list, we just want to decorate and express creativity. Please have some respect :P -

Three things I'd like to see (which may already have been mentioned):
Shopping mall(s)
Amusement Park(s)
Sports Stadia (baseball, football, hockey/basketball - as the largest city in America, PC should have several pro sports teams)
All at least enterable, and maybe the Amusement Park(s) could be entirely new zones - a rundown, abandonded Park in the RI and an active one in PC.
Samples I made for my base:

Quote:I have to try the confuse method sometime if it's really effective. I have done the hold/dmg many times and it is very delicate. I'm up for improving my dom's skills. :POriginally Posted by Frosticus
You are aware how low your damage will be with a hold strategy yes?
TK isn't really useful when the triangles are down because a single dominate will hold them. It is useful to help overpower their mag when you hit ~50.
You want to know a secret to solo'ing AV's with mind doms that requires no defense/resistance at all? Confuse. that way you can take out AV's that use non s/l attacks, which are numerous.
Not only can you stack way higher mag of confuse easier than holds its duration means you can actually maintain some semblance of an attack chain rather rather than the hold>attack>hold>attack that is necessary with a hold strategy.
You can very likely use confuse>and then 3 attacks>repeat and maintain enough mag.
If you are adamant about using a hold stategy then at least use some dam/mez HO's in dominate so you still do ok dps.
Antoinette, you want to avoid using terrorize because it is useless against an AV not because it interferes with mez suppression which doesn't exist in pve.
I know terrorize is useless specially for solo. But I think with enough fears it could work (not solo for sure). My only concern with confuse is the activation/animation time, but it does not matter anyway if it has long duration.
I guess I was wrong with the supression, but I never use fear when fighting AV's solo... and if I have used it, I use it on a rush-in RSF. -
I have tried it many times, it works but you have to lock them down first, using sleep and holds. When you put enough hold then you can use TK. TK only adds small amount of hold but if you do it right it will be effective.
If ever you missed with your chains and the AV starts to fight back, detoggle TK and use sleep.
Do not use any fear powers because they will mess (suppress) with your holds. -

Any news of a 'with skin' version of the Organic Armour?
-
I went to test last night and here is my feedback:
1. I love the new costume sets, something new and cool.
2. Organic - The tights (no skin) version is like on its own. It needs a "tights w/ skin" version and the sales will absolutely increase I promise you this!
3. Organic - Needs Tights w/ skin for gloves and boots.
4. Tights w/ skin.
5. The head piece needs connection to the body parts, because it is on its own again. -
Would like to update you guys on my e-mail problem:
It's been 3 days now and still no GM help heheh. I kinda understand though because there are probably thousands of people complaining and GM's are assisting them atm. As soon as I get my stuff back, I will let you guys know. I'm eager to meet this very nice, sweet and caring GM, so hurry up!
My fear is that, the GM will be like "WTF you have crap on your e-mail!" But I'm pretty sure I have a couple of purples and pvp IO's there, I'm just not sure!

Quote:Oh that is awesome news! Because I cannot remember what I have in my e-mail, all I know is there are a lot of stuff there. When I visit RV with my stalker, I'll get a pvp IO drop, then I send them to myself.Originally Posted by Tired Angel
From what I understand there are logs of what people send themselves each other so it possible to get your stuff back.
I did claim the recent ones I e-mailed myself, but I had to log out because I had to do lots of RL stuff. I did not get to petition it, mainly because I did not know the details of the recipes I sent myself, so I hope I'm not too late to do it tomorrow. -
Hi,
I lost a bunch of PvP IO's and purples too. I tried to store them the first time i17 came out so I could send it to my main toon. But I was so busy leveling my Demon MM, so I did not have time to organize my recipes.
I knew it was wrong to store anything in the e-mail system as mentioned, but I also know that we are only allowed to store/send 20 items to ourselves, so if I was exploiting, I'm so sorry. ...But is there a way to get them back? If not fine, just warn us before making such changes in the future.

Quote:I like Villains Zones too! I'm surprised most people hate Mercy Island. I love the Gothic buildings and clock tower and Victorian details. The mini bench patios are so cute.Originally Posted by TrueMetal
I actually like the villain zones way more than the hero zones. Villainside has life, atmosphere. Every zone has a clear purpose, theme and backstory.
Heroside zones are just generic, bland and boring. The only zones I do like are the Hollows and revamped Faultline. I'd like Croatoa too, but for some reason I find that it's apart from the rest of CoH. It just doesn't seem to fit in.
I think many people think that villain side has a lot of garbage and bad design, but it is not the bad design its the lighting. I've seen more trash in hero side than in villain side, except Mercy Island, but that's because Mercy's lore says it's so...
I remember one time in close beta where they have set the Villain zone lighting into the "Hero Side" lighting. The zones were so bright and the grass is greener and the sky was blue. It was kinda cool but because it was something new to villain side, only it was a bug/error.
Most hate it because Mercy is the starting point of villains and to them it is almost repetitive. Almost all missions are in same area and Kalinda and Mongoose and the other guy >.> are the only starting contacts.
Make sure to explore Mercy Island's shores. Discover the Shark Hunter's house and take screenies of the hanging shark. Take walks on the beach too and discover many more underrated stuff, you will be surprised! Ride a boat and use fishing emote!
Villain Zones definitely has more depth than Hero side. Sometimes we need to stop fighting crimes or stop doing crimes and appreciate what is in our surroundings :P
As for the topic, St. Martial's city has a good City NYC set up. I'm excited to see what Going Rogue has to offer. I really wish buildings have names of a company and more lights and not just some random building put in a spot just so they can call it a city.. I also hope we can all go inside and at least go from first floor and top floor by elevator. -
I also put music on my VG site, I was undecided so I put 3 songs. Check it out to give you some inspiration, I like all of them but the 3rd one is lovely. Use instrumental and mix. Make sure it fits with the website theme too...
I used a Original Score (rare) from Blue Crush by Paul Haslinger. -
Feedback:
1. Desdemona's hair is to die for, it's also moving and flowy!
2. I can't wait to see that main zone both Maelstrom and Desdemona were in. It kinda looks like the main center of Millennium City in Champions Online except Nova Praetoria looks more gray and white with some gold. They did mention that it is not a Futuristic City... Looks amazing and a breath of fresh air still! Now I'm eager to see the NYC version of Praetoria.
-
Unless they make the Carnies/Carnival be like Deadly Apocalypse raid, where they spawn on a random place. Since the Carnival move from place to place (just like in my town, we have the carnival every 5 months...), it will be a good idea for a new zone raid of some kind.

10 Things I would like to see!
1. Movie Theaters - Accessible in and out of the theater building. Can we have a big screen inside?
2. Hotels - Accessible, at least the lobby.
3. Comic Stores - Accessible inside.
4. Elevators for tall buildings - Elevator access for tall buildings to go on the roof top, just like in CO.
5. Catwalk Runway - Fashion Runway. Maybe a new "ICON" building with a runway inside for Going Rogue
.
6. Red Carpet - A red carpet for a stadiums or theaters.
7. New Arena Buildings - With basketball court, swimming pools and baseball courts and red carpet. A Boxing Ring!!!
8. Gyms - Gyms! Includes multiple day job badges or some sort when you log out in the building!
9. Parks - Gardens, Eco-parks, trees, Madison square garden! Benches, Vendors, hot dog stands, balloons, drug dealers, homeless, street performers, Theme Parks, rides, Carnival like in St. Martials only more fun.
10. Beaches - White Sand Beaches, Safeguard stands.
Oh snap! Now I'm tempted to activate my CO account...
Unrelated Stuff I want to see:
1. Sharks in the water in Sharkhead Isle. -
Yes! Make buildings close to each other, so there is room for "Drug Dealers"... Make the street blocks tight and narrow. There is a main street which is wide but that's about it, just like 42nd street in NY. Make sure the "Main Street" is the only wide street, the rest is very very narrow, like Dr. (drive), Ln (Lane), Pl (Place) etc. Roads are a big part of a city.
IMO, St. Martial's city has the best city design all over CoX, only its a small portion. It has lights like Time Square, buildings close to each other, and so many billboards everywhere. Almost every building you can go inside. Buildings have elevators inside to go up and down. Yes we need every building accessible.
Do not make buildings look like the other, like in Hero side... gray and dull, every street is the same building.
Tokyo is spot on!

That base shot is insane. The way you've got the "spires" from the floor and the ceiling intersecting like that is rather stunning. Might have to make some upgrades to my base
My base happens to be located on the top floor of the VG registrar's office in Port Oakes. It's a convenient location when rent time rolls around. -
The Ethereals are on an "Organic Spaceship"... we go anywhere, we are usually on stealth mode hovering above Russia.
