    I think it's hilarious that people think that the other superhero MMO will somehow "get" what players want.

    Since NCNC bought CoH from cryptic we've gotten features we've been asking for for 4 years, but while captain fancy helmet was in charge and Cryptic was roaming these hills we got... ED, and broken PvP that Posi has to take [censored] for.

    Yeah, run to the mooks that lit the fire your complaining about, I'll stay here while Posi fixes things up and continues to deliver what players have asked for.

    I haven't been here nearly as long, but I'm with ya... I'm tired of people sounding like spoiled kids. Go! It was nice having you while you were here and I appreciate any of you that I've had the chance to team with. If you decide to return, I'll be waiting for you.
  2. Yeah, the griefing get's pretty bad. Had it done a few times last night by someone (name removed to protect the stupid) and finally after the last kill I recieved I called him out on it on Broadcast. His response was, "Well they keep doing it to me". My response was, "... so do unto others? Very Heroic." After that I just put him on ignore and moved on.

    Also, just to address a common question that comes up when we do these exclusives, is why we put them out on MMORPG.com first. We do this to gain exposure for the game. We host articles such as this as an exclusive on a gaming website and then will host the same information here on our website shortly thereafter.

    So, if you don't want to go to MMORPG.com to view the video or screenshots, you'll be able to find them on the CityofHeroes.com website by the end of the week.

    Personally those that complain about something like this fully don't understand marketing strategies... personally it makes perfectly good sense and I feel kinda bad for you LH to always have to "explain" yourself for this.

    Thanks for any and all updates you provide.

    I knew we were heading down the wrong path

    What you consider the wrong path is not indicative of what others (including myself) believe.
  5. I think what will really be interesting will be to see how much the population will grow in certain zones...
  6. I've said it once in another similar thread and I'll say it again here.

    This is (as I see it) a gift from "above". A way of saying thank you for being great patrons. Most forget, Badging was never meant to be easy, so why make this process easier for "you"! Thanks to Badgehunter and other sources it has become more than what it was meant to be, cake-walk. 30 days seem extremely reasonalble to me. It is my belief that the 8 hour a day 7 days a week player is just not the majority of the community... maybe the forums but not CoX in general. Even still, just because your a hardcore gamer doesn't mean they should make changes to satisfy your greedy desire to be the one with "everthing." Sit back enjoy the ride. Take a moment for a change and watch the sunset. 30 days is not that long.

    If you think of the actual concept of what a day job is, statistically speaking the average person stays on a job 3 years max and moves on. 30 days seems about right to me!
  7. I'll enter this one just like I enter all the rest!!!!

    I am pleased to hear that CAs are going to be useable at Lvl 1.

    I only wish that they were separate from the normal auras that we unlock at Lvl 30. Meh, I'll live with foregoing Lvl 30 Auras on a character or two to use the CAs I paid for. Maybe one day we will have options for CAs at Lvl 1 and be able to add the Lvl 30 Auras when we get that far.

    [/ QUOTE ]


    I personally think they (the De'vs) are going to find a way to make both aura's available. Meaning giving Cyborg Aura at lvl 1 as well as being able to achieve the "real" Aura at lvl 30.

    I like to have faith in my favorite 1 and only MMO.
  9. Before TonyV get's here... I just wanna say, I love the idea of the Booster Packs. I plan to purchase each and every one of them just to support my favorite game, hoping the funds will continue to make this the best MMO of all time (as it already is)!

    I've been itching for more costumes, which is why I bought the Cyborg pack. I'm excited to see what they have to offer and yes, I will be using the "Police Belt"!
  10. Personally I'm glad that the "reason" they decided TO wait is because they just weren't ready. I would much rather they release with full intention of it working the way it should then rushing to get it out. Hat's off to you guys, and thank for the update!
  11. I'll finish the artical in a sec, I just wanted to be the 1st after LH!!!

    PvP content is something we are looking at improving in the very near future, with some new systems to support it.

    ooh! shiny!

    I've never been much or really even tried to pvp... from my understanding only the most "hardcore" players do. That being said I'm sure I'd be wiped across the floor as these folks are the ones who spend the high influ to get the best of the best of enhancements. Kind'a tells me it's a waste of my time to even try... Am I wrong?
  13. Like mnay, I dont pvp but I'm glad that more info about CoX is continuing to be placed out there for others to enjoy and hopefully turn their attention here. Great article.

    I've only been playing since Dec. of last year and since then I've read the boards but just started recently posting myself. The reason I bring this up... I think I enjoy the game as much if not more as the next man but I'm concerned that as soon as some of you "vets" hear things about up and coming content you start bashing the devs for not giving you more information. From reading older threads I see that it goes beyond enjoyment and more of, "This is my game and how dare they not share more information. Don't get me wrong. I would love more info and as much as possible but some of you are not thinking realistic. LH job position as I've heard is Community Relations, but I've seen some folks tear into this guy like he's satan on a cross...

    Anyway, my point is... "All good things comes to those who wait." "There's a time and a place..." Get my meaning?
  14. Here i thought it was going to be the Griffin that we get to ride in the expansion....

    oh wait, wrong game... /e *bows his head in shame*

    Wow. So when did NCSoft start becoming a marketing [censored]? Don't go the way of WoW, with it's always wanting to sell you stuff.
    It's just like the wedding pack fiasco. Buying a few emotes and costume parts seem to be the thing nowadays. Why not make em available as recipes in Wentworths or something? At least then there be some other things of value in it, plus getting one will make the player feel like they accomplished something. Instead, your trying to pad your wallets again. But you are a company so we should expect that.

    [/ QUOTE ]


    So the free updates/Issues you get each year is NCSoft padding their wallets? Wow, sorry but what you wrote is the fiasco!
  16. Sorry, this was a reply from the person in Brazil.
  17. Just an FYI, it's not NC's rules... it's Visa/Master Card rule's and reg's or NC's Merchant Bank that this comes from. I'm in Marketing but for a merchant services company....
  18. I can't wait to get home from work this evening...
  19. ... also being able to promote/demote offline Hero's would be greatly appreciated. Man, the more and more I think about it there are a lot of options I'd love to see. Guess I'm in the right place, hope it's the right time!!!
  20. Something I think would be a welcome addition to base control for SG leadership is a little more fine tuning in the "permissions". It would be great as promotions become available to allow specific access to specific SG items, i.e; storage, inspir collectors, vault, etc.. Something to have our new recruites look forward to.
    Has this been brought up already?

    Just a thought

    I love in Posi's letter how he talks about 'rewards' for the missions created by the users. How it was bantered back and forth in the office with raised voices. I have a nagging suspicion this means no xp/influence/etc for these missions in which case. Crappy system and count me out. Not gonna bust my butt to create tons of missions that grant absolutely no reward.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Then you missed the entire point of the mission creator.

    [/ QUOTE ]


    For me the entire idea is for those that truely love the game and not just for the xp... it's about your character, how and why he's here in Paragon, and it's all up to you to decide his fate!!!!! How can you not want to play and determine his past, present and future ???

    Now, under the new system, you can know exactly what you need to do to get what you want. In my mind this is a much more friendly system for any player - hardcore or casual. We'll have all the details of the token system in a future feature update on Issue 13.

    Seems to me there will be some very unhappy "Market Sellers". But I love the idea
