Quote:A very nice organized list! Thank you for that.It is always nice to know something that not everyone knows.
It is even nicer to be able to share said knowledge.
One command I didn't see in your list though was this.
vis_scale - Controls world detail 1.0=default (valid values .5 - 4) -

Quote:Another way of describing the difference is with this analogy.I've been scouring a few different sources to find out what I can about caging powers (Dimension Shift, Black Hole, Sonic Cage,and Detention field) and I've come up with a lot of conflicting information. My basic question is this: is Intangibility a status of its own rather than a combination of the Untouchable status and Only-Affecting Self? If so, why is there a difference when they are effectually the same?
Not all Dogs are German Shepherds.
All German Shepherds are dogs.
Similarily..
Not all Untouchable effects are Intangible/Cage.
All Intangible/Cage effects are Untouchable.
So, why? Aside from power variety and other reasons, Intangible effects tend to affect large groups while Cage effects only affect one target. -
Quote:So quoted for truth.There is a lot of internet between your computer and the game, and all of your information has to travel through all of that internet to get between the two. If something is going wrong anywhere along the line that your data travels, your game will suffer.
Noyjitat, you really have little idea how to interpret a Traceroute yet you start a 'FIX THE SERVERS NAO!' thread.
Read through this following link to get an idea of just how much you are missing. -
Quote:Those types of drivers are usually on the Motherboard cd along with update software to find more current drivers.This may sound stupid, but I did a reinstall of Windows and for some reason I can't get my ethernet adapter working. I thought I had all the drivers saved etc. but it's nowhere to be found. Is there a way to I.D. what kind of adapter I have and download it from the internet?
If you don't have a cd, and you plug into the motherboard for your ethernet, then download CohHelper from the link in my sig. That program's output will give you the motherboard info you need.
If you plug into a card plugged into your motherboard then you'll need to provide more info on that. -
Quote:Absolutely, positively /unsigned.Like mastermind buffs.
FF
Sonic
Cold
Thermal
Each of these sets would be far more playable and less annoying if these buffs were AoEs.
I want full control over who I do or do not buff. I usually only buff the main Tanker, and only buff the entire team under certain circumstances. IMO, the changes proposed here would make those sets far more annoying to play. -
Quote:Search is your friend.Thread title pretty much says it all. Kinda hard to like the new format now because I have no way of tracking what the devs or community reps say on certin posts.
It's been this way since launch and I dont even know if a rep has said anything about it.
You can use the following link until the forum digest is fixed.

Quote:Most? If by most you mean the subsection of players that insist on taking all possible toggle power before getting Stamina, or the ones that refuse to slot end reduction enhancements, then I'll agree.1. You are correct in that it is my opinion. However, you'll find that most agree with me.
Quote:Villains have some decent low-level arcs, while heroes are generally forced to slog through the "old stuff" (arcs full of useless filler defeat-all and delivery missions spanning multiple large zones, often before they have a decent travel power).
Quote:2. My characters are built to run several toggles and always being doing something, whether that is buffing, healing, or dealing damage. Even with fully-slotted Stamina I need expensive set IO bonuses to keep from having to pack along blues.
To be clear, there is nothing wrong with you choosing a certain play style. However, it is wrong for you to place the blame solely on the game, while taking no responsibility for the impact your own actions. -
Quote:Cute video.You mean to the Shard where level 1s can buy a Jet Pack now?
While you're waiting for a Youtube journey of a level 1 to the Storm Palace, enjoy this YouTube gem of a runner getting to the Terra Volta reactor door without fly or special jump powers.
Except the character doing the run is lvl 35 or higher (if I've done my con math properly). -
1. Guardian - Around 90% of my play is here. I have 30 some characters (all heroes). I have 3 SG's of my own, and share another SG with friends that also live in SF.
2. Freedom - Only villains. I have maybe 10 characters there and only because a very fun and competent bunch have their SG there. Hurricane Legion.
3. Triumph - Only heroes. Where Hurricane Legion has their hero version SG. -

Quote:From an RP standpoint, I'm all for it.Please give us missions to earn Origin respecs. No more than two respecs for each character.
Thanks for reading.
Rich the Origin Guy
However since the Devs have said they would not add AT and power set respec ability, I'd be surprised if they added the ability to change origin. -

Note that the entire critter name doesn't need to be used. I usually just type in the first 5 letters or so.

Quote:I have found that respecs will fail if I'm out in the open and a Rikti/Zombie/etc invasion starts.Thanks for all the posts. I guess it could be that I took too long. It didn't seem that I did though. I was not doing the respec on an kheld it was on a scrapper.
When I do respecs indoors or in a SG base, I haven't had that happen. -
Quote:Oh Louis, Louis. Still whining Louis.Thanks so much for the variety of "Support" (mostly wise cracks or simply defense of COH regardless of the issues.) I tried coming to the forums to report problems as the techies insist if you send a petition and it proved to be just what I thought, a useless undertaking.
All stand up and Cheer, I will not be back, not even to see posts to this statement.
We'll still be here if you actually want to seek help, rather than seeking an audience for your tantrums. -
Just to clarify this, uncommon and Rare salvage from all tiers can be purchased with tickets starting at character Level 10.
-
IMO, the salvage pages need to be revamped a bit. I've been contemplating adding the following, though not sure how well such a change would be received.
Here is a more precise drop-level breakdown.
NPC lvl 4-19: Tier 1 only.
NPC lvl 20-25: Tier 1 or 2.
NPC lvl 26-34: Tier 2 only.
NPC lvl 35-39: Tier 2 or 3.
NPC lvl 40-54: Tier 3 only.
After white salvage Consignment prices went crazy, I started stockpiling it in a separate SG base, and I organized bin clusters based on the Tiers. The following is the breakdown list of all white salvage that I use so I know what levels to keep certain characters at to earn certain salvage.
Here are the Tiers.
Tier 1
Ancient Artifact
Boresight
Brass
Clockwork Winder
Computer Virus
Human Blood Sample
Inanimate Carbon Rod
Luck Charm
Runebound Armour
Simple Chemical
Spell Scroll
Spiritual Essence
Tier 2
Alchemical Silver
Ancient Bone
Circuit Board
Demonic Blood Sample
Improvised Cybernetic
Inert Gas
Iron
Masterwork Weapon
Rune
Scientific Theory
Spell Ink
Stabilized Mutant Genome
Tier 3
Ceramic Armor
Demonic Threat Report
Fortune
Hydraulic Piston
Kinetic Weapon
Mathematic Proof
Nevermelting Ice
Regenerating Flesh
Ruby
Silver
Spirit Thorn

Quote:It's funny how many players act so gobsmacked when they find out 'old folk' like us play this game.Generally though when someone "learns I'm a girl" all that really needs to be said by me is "you should wish me a happy birthday! Last monday I turned 42!!"
They usually stop when they realize I'm older than their parents... -
Quote:That is one of the funniest things I've read in ages! Thank you so much for that!...So, we find a perfect opportunity to bring out our new characters, "Totally Fabulous" and "Richard Love".
We sign on and we ask him to invite us. He sees our flamboyant costumes and goes ape. I think he smashed his face on the keyboard cause all we saw was "ajhdaf klasfd fdjklsjklafdklfjas;lkfja sjkfjkl;asfd kl;asfdjkl;asfd " and him auto running into a wall.
We fear he had a heart attack... -
About 18 posts later and only about 3 posts came close to answering the OP's question. Gee...
Oh and that question was, since most everyone seems to have missed it:
Quote:The 'trend' is that too many players using AE only want easy Experience/rewards. The Fire/Kin is either at the top or close to the top of the list for preferred/effective farming AT's....What am I missing here? Is this some kind of trend I'm unaware of? Was this person looking for a farm and thought I wasn't running one? And why 50 tank or fire/kin?...
As for the 50 tank, that takes a little more guesswork but here are some possibilities.- They would have all the possible powers/slots available.
- They might have slotted Purple sets.
- IMO, the most likely reason is this. With farm maps that spawn lvl 54's, the team has a better chance of staying alive (and keeping the tank alive) if said aggro magnet is lvl 50. Especially considering that a natural sk could only be as high as lvl 49 and an auto-SKd tank would be even less.

Okay, let's 'start over' so to speak. Post the results of CohHelper and HijackThis. Links are in my signature.

Quote:Windows 7 and CoH work just fine together. If it's not working for you, there is clearly an issue with your setup. Either the drivers for a piece of your hardware has not been upgraded to Windows 7 standards or a driver is just not functioning properly.Quote:It's a setup that worked great with Vista, so comparatively it should work great with Windows 7 too.
I encourage anyone who wants more information about Windows 7 to visit the following thread.
