I hope we still get one with the changes in management and all.

You're focus on content is understandable as it has been your job for many years now. My question is as follows:
With the focus now on content, will new powers, animations, costumes, and other aesthetics still be coming into the game at the same pace as before? -
Guess I am just sad to see Posi no longer in charge. Him taking over was the begining of great changes in this game. I am not saying that WW is not the same, just sad. Change is hard sometimes and when it comes it makes the future seem more uncertain.
Posi, I hope you enjoy your new job more than your old one.
WW, Congratz I hope you bring changes as awesome as Posi did in the position. -

Not trying to raise the Doom Meter(tm), but the move to work on the end game content for Posi is a *voluntary* move, correct? It could be read as a demotion.
I mean I think Posi will be great at developing a compelling end game since he's the one that largely brought inventions to CoH. I want the announcement to mean that he's just taking one for the team because he's really good at designing as opposed to promoting someone else because management wants a "change of direction" or other nonsense.
This. I am not sure how I feel about this change. I hate I am late on the news, cracked a rib and I am in bed today. I liked what Posi did with the game, and it just, dosen't feel right. Combine that with BAB no longer taking PMs, and it all seems odd. -
Quote:This. With BAB no longer taking PMs (not that I blame him) it is just, well, depressing. I think the mods are trying hard with games to keep something going, marketing is just letting us suffer.Originally Posted by Perfect_Pain
I think the silence is the worst part.

It might be more productive to suggest to them that they market City of Heroes more first along with specific marketing option suggestions. There will be plenty of opportunities to tell them they suck if they don't respond favorably to that suggestion.
Darn it! Why is it you are right so much? 
-
Cool, now I know where to send my hate mail! At this point I think it would be worth more than the cost of a stamp to tell them they suck.

Quote:Not my favorite thing to do, but it is better than changing what I am going for completely. Also Keeper was my main for years, he was moved so he would not get ignored on the server I rarely use. Part of my fun came from the character's name, if I can keep that by framing the name, I will.Originally Posted by Fury Flechette
I would never resort to this. It looks terrible IMO. You're probably not as picky as I am but periods or hyphens after or before the name (hyphens between the name is okay in some situations); framing stuff with x; using spaces in names (e.g., K E E P E R O F B L A D E S); or using ones instead of Ls are just things I wouldn't do.
Note that I use a naming convention that handicaps me even further in that most of my character names have to have two Fs in it. I've still never had much difficulty in getting names on Virtue and lately Freedom. -
Glad I avoided Aion.
-
I think there is a guide somewhere on the boards explaining naming techniques. I do things like frame in "x" or add a dash. So I ended up with x Keeper of Blades x after moving one of my toons to Virtue. I tend to get the name I want in one way or another.
-
I only moved the ones I really wanted to RP off of Tri to Virtue. I left a stockpile on Tri so I could still play witht eh HUB people that chose not to move toons.
-
Cold, you still ahve a few days to use free server transfer tokens too. If you decide you don't want to start fresh you can move some of your old characters to larger servers that what you may have been on.

Quote:Heheh, Funny. That's what I am doing too! I also went and picked up some books. I will still crave GR info, but Netflix, and reading will distract me I hope.Originally Posted by SwellGuy
The real key is you stop seeing us playing the live game when we are in the betas. But I am just enjoying my Netflix watch instantly queue now. Really.
Seems like we are all frustrated with the lack of GR info. -

Put me down for "Waaah!" 'cuz I missed the event on Virtue.

Pretty sure (was a long time ago) that the CoV beta was on a separate server too. Really, I think that would be the best way to do it. The closed betas for issues seem to cause a lot of bitterness.
-
Look, I was having a bad day, and perhaps I should have not been so paranoid. I didn't create the concept though, I just latched onto it in a moment of weakness.
-
Yea that was me, sorry. I ma having a day of paranoia sorry.
-
I don't see the point in bots. I play the game to, well, play the game. I really don't want a bot playing it for me.
I know one thing, the post made me paranoid. I finished reading it, and ran every scan I have. Clean is good. -
Here is the flaw Peter, they will at least be talking about GR, what they know about GR, and how excited or not excited they are about it. Right now we are talking about Marketing and how much they suck.

Quote:I agree with this. There have been some regulars absent as of late. The only one that still posts that I would suspect is Arcanaville. They said that 60+ mo vets, and those witht eh loyalty badge (I have both) would be in closed, and I and many I know are not (if it is going).Originally Posted by Perfect_Pain
I believe Alpha stage has already started, and that some of you... Know what the Hell is going on... and you just sit on your butts laughing at all of us who just want some new info.
My interest isn't going anywhere, but my frustration level has already gone through the roof.
There are members of these boards that most time can't resist making snide comments, and much of what has been said lately attracts them like flies to poo. It is possible that they left, or are taking a break, but again I doubt it. -
I wonder if they know how much some members of this community really dislike them. On second thought, from the look of things they don't care.
-
Thanks, this lets me know that my hate towards marketing is well placed.

Quote:Not every community is for every person. I am not sure it is hate. For my part, I didn't hate it, it just wasn't the place for me.Originally Posted by Lucky666
Man some of you people must really be jealous of Freedom spewing all this non sense about us, don't hate us cause were beautiful and got way more people then other servers. Why do some of you spew this hate? I wonder, jealousy seems like the main reason.

I've been one of "those" people for a bit now. Marketing is to blame.

Hope it all gets better man. You are my favorite Dev, and it would suck to not see you on here.
