Feel like testing? Do a respec with one of your 20+ers. See if that unlocks the EAT on the appropriate side.

... You've been around since 2004 and never got a character to 50?

Always was this way as far as I know. I never remember a time when enemies just stood there in caltrops. They've always fled from them.

Yup, looks like it.

This thread was a good read.

I think I had my first real taste of powerset envy when I kept checking back into the Pylon Results thread.

Seeing FM/SD and DM/SD break the 300DPS mark while my claws/sr hit the wall at 200 was, quite frankly, kinda sad.

Made me annoyed that I couldn't make a claws/sd, regardless of the fact that such a combo would have even MORE ridiculous amounts of AoE damage.

No one but the devs know why they made this change.

We do know that many of them thought that unlocking archetypes at 50 was always a bad idea.

We also know that lots of folks weren't playing them. Some say that was because you had to have a level 50 to unlock them, but with how easy it is to get to 50, I don't accept that opinion. My main hit 50 before Khels went live. My PB hit 50 a few short months later. That was a frelling nightmare by the way. Back before all the buffs, when Q/Vs actually hurt, hell.. on day one Khels were running around with a dam-res debuff that was only corrected by teaming.

In my opinion, and it's only that, an opinion, I think they dropped the level requirement for no other reason than "what the hell? What's the point in leaving the unlockable at 50?"

Am I bothered by it? Not in the least. Maybe they'll see some tweaks a few issues down the road due to this change.

What operating system are you using? If vista or win7, are you running CHV as administrator?

EDIT: Also, have you attempted to start the game using its Safe Mode? Just check the box before hitting next.

It's not a new engine. They're just using better OpenGL code with the old engine. That's why all the ATI issues disappeared.

So, no, you're not crazy. Well, at least in relation to your perceptions on this.

Hi folks. I had the same issue on my workstation, which runs XP-SP3.

EDIT: This is only for those getting an error regarding "Can't create directory //<computername>/c$/games/coh You don't have correct permissions or directory has been moved..." or something like that.

Solution 1: Delete your current shortcut to coh. Create a new shortcut to cohupdater.exe. Run it. Does everything work now? If not, go to solution 2.

Solution 2: Delete your current shortcut. Make a COPY of cohupdater.exe to your desktop. Run it. *IF* it asks you where to install it, point it back to your old directory. It didn't ask me. Just reinstalled.

Once done updating, close it, don't hit next. Delete the COPY of the cohupdater.exe you put on the desktop. Create a new shortcut on the desktop if one wasn't automatically generated.

I'm currently yanking the 10.4s so that I can test Mercy with the 10.3s. Meh. No change at all that I see. Mercy performance still horrific. By horrific I mean 30FPS at cranked settings.

Gratz again on getting your current job, WW.

My favorite memory? I'm torn between soloing my first AV and having Castle joke about creating specific nerfs for me.

It's been a hoot watching this game evolve over the years and I look forward to all the new stuff that will be added in the years to come. <cough>offlinesg/vginvites<cough>

EK, Dumpleberry, did yall see this link when trying to get your drivers directly from ati.amd.com?

For graphics cards, I noticed the Series 3XXX AGP and it links to this page:
