    What a pile of crap! What happened to the rule of two things existing in the same time and space going bang? (he hugged himself)

    Biggest pile of rubbish yet, major disappointment.

And even the squishiest character can survive walking in lava long enough to do that.

    So essentially you have told us you had done everything in the mission but the very final step and went outside and abandoned it.

    Note all you have to do is click on him not attack at that point.
    I clicked, I tabbed to him, I could see his health go back up but that was it! I stood next to him in the lava for awhile, nothing. I think the issue was he was completely covered.

    He was completely covered by lava and it wouldn't let me :-(

    clicking, tabbing no difference, I could select him and watch his heath but I couldn't attack.

    This is how stupid this mission is . I pushed him into the lava, he sank so I coudn't target him then as he dropped -29 health he regenerated faster to full health!!

    I couldn't target him so had to quit the mission.

    Yes, it's Justice and it is currently dead quite, just after midnight local time.

    Luv the way any discussion here degenerates into slagging off at the poster.

    btw tried the suggestion of killing the clones, didn't help he just spawned more :-(. I have completed this sucessfully in a team but solo with 3 different blasters no way.

    and to rub salt in you can't auto complete the mission.

    Kahn TF was the last, and it was started at about 2:30 AM MST (4:30 EST/1:30 AM PST), and I saw quite a few other TFs being formed at those times...this was on Virtue.
    and there is another discussion on the number of slots per server .......

    face it the game is old and all these updates are just lipstick on a pig

    Yes. It will take longer to get that uncommon boost. But you'll still get it! Everything so far that a team player can get, a solo player can get.

    What's so hard to understand, that teaming will get you rewards faster?

    Teaming gets people XP faster too, but you never heard people complain, "Unfair that teams get faster XP gain than me soloing".

    Don't want to team, want to solo? Then solo. You will get the reward. It will take longer, but so what, soloing got you to 50 slower...no difference now with incaranate abilities.
    It's not don't want to but can't. Brings up the whole consolidate the servers discussion again.

    Like all the treads on purple drop rates the milage seems to vary :-(

    It's 11:30 pm in Australia and there were no lvl 50's in oro or PI but me :-( (on CoH Justice) I tried to solo the trapdoor mission with my archer blaster and gave up after 1/2 hour, I just couldn't dent him enuff with all his regen.

    I see the same thing in the new GR content the devs egged on by the games uber elites have made the damn things so hard that it is no longer fun.

    it's the "occasionally acquired" that sux, so far they have been rarer than purple recipes. I really don't want to farm or grind for what are key components of the game for 50s.

    This just seems like the devs trying to push people into TFs because they weren't being played as much as they wanted. (maybe becuase it's so hard to get a team together !!)

    I'm in Australia, generally the Justice server but I flip around freedom, justice, victory and virtue. Unless I want to play at 3 in the morning (which I don't ) there isn't much happening between 7:30pm and 10:00pm local time during the week, weekends are better but then I do have a life :-)

    You can unlock the slot solo but to get the salvage the notes say:

    The components to unleash the power of the Alpha Slot and its Incarnate Abilities can be acquired by completing existing level 50 content:
    Statesman's Task Force (STF)
    Lord Recluse's Strike Force (LRSF)
    Imperious Task Force (ITF)
    Lady Grey Task Force (LGTF)
    Dr. Khan's Task Force / Barracuda's Strike Force
    Hamidon
    Cathedral of Pain
    A component is also available from the Vanguard Merit vendor in the Rikti War Zone
  13. I thought the idea behind this game was that teaming was optional and that everything could be acquired solo.

    Now with this release I can't progress my 50's unless I do TFS, do the devs realise how hard it is to get a team together on some servers outside the US ?!

    The time zone difference kills us. I am afraid if this doesn't change then this is the end of my 6 year run with this game.

    :-(

    Then what is wrong with buying them from the markets instead of a drop ? They don't have to be expensive.

    As far as I can see my suggestion is simple to implement and everybody wins.

    I didn't say get rid of them from the game I said make them recipes you can buy instead of drops. That way the few people that want them can buy them at a fixed price.

    This should be an easy no programing change.
  18. Nobody wants these things and yet they seem to drop more often now than any other recipe.

    Make them fixed price item purchases at the markets and give me back some decent drops .

    Uninstall the existing drivers:

    Run Driver Sweeper:

    Then reinstall the Catalyst 10.6 drivers.

    My Guess is that you probably swapped from the 4800 series to the 57xx card and the system still has the 48xx card as a primary rendering device somewhere.

    When you put the 4800 series card back, it's now rendering to the correct device.

    Remember: CoH is one of the only Commercial games on the market to leverage OpenGL 3.0+ at this time. Outside of Unigine's Heaven demo: http://unigine.com/ :: there isn't much you can lay hands on right now that's running code compiled against / towards OpenGL 3.0+
    This fixed it.
    Thank you.

    Just to make sure I'm clear on this before I go further, but with the 5750:

    You were not getting any other errors with any other game?
    No errors with any other game.

    Before I read your post.

    The game started randomly crashing no matter what I was doing :-( I removed the HD5750 card and replaced it with a 4800 series card and the problems have gone away.

    I didn't remove or change the drivers.

    The 5750 card only caused problems in CoH so I guess there is some in-game setting causing the problem ?? I reset the in-game options to defaults and that didn't help.

  24. Trying to use organic armour pieces at the tailor causes my PC to lockup. Screen goes black and I have to reset. ATI HD5750 card.

    It does not lock up straight away but it crashes before I can finish all my changes. Sometimes it crashes in the power customisation screen but only if I pick any of the new costume pieces.

    I logged three bugs months ago (via the online reporting system) that have not been address. One is the crab pack appearing on every slot of a dual build toon, the other is that applying the predefined insect armour to a crab spider results in the entire costume changing to plain when accepted. The third is that only the first costume slot can have the widow or spider pieces (as appropraite).

    Over the years (4) I have logged a number of bug reports for different bits of the game and none of them have ever been fixed.
