Quote:Same here.I'm on the west coast. The lag was atrocious last night. And I had just upgraded to a Quad core and a 4850 1 gig video card. So it's not from sheer processing or lack of a good video card.
I got 2 Dual Core 5060 Xeon CPUs, 12 GB Ram, Vista Ultimate and this ATI 4870 in my gaming rig, and a 16mb Comcast connection with a DD-WRT router.
So, in theory I should have been fine too..... But I wasn't.
During the raid, someone shouted out to switch to an "Pre-i16 Altered costume with no tints" so i did, and it instantly made an improvement. Not much of one, cause the tints of everyone else were still flying, but it helped.
I'm all for "Low Lag, No Aura, No Capes, No Tints" Costumes, But no WAY am I donning a Lord Apparition style Raid-kini. -
Quote:As I've said before, I've been screwed on drops since day one, so I don't notice much of difference. But, then again I stopped holding my breath for good drops over 9 months ago.I totally agree but the drop rates being borked up shouldn't constitute a delay in I16's launch. Having said that, the Devs better get the problem resolved sooner than later.
~MR
The only compensation for my horrible drops has been my GREAT luck in the Random Rolls at the Merit station. -

OK Someone needs to file this quote under the definition of "Random" on the CoH Wiki. -
Well, I was on last night, and it seem like Team Hot Knife took a week off, so I left Angry Sysop at 49.8 until we could team together and ding him. It didn't seem right to ding him without at least SOME of the team there.
But, in my travels, I met up with Unleashed's Wednesday Night HERO Static team who is at or around 50.
I was thinkin'.
Perhaps it's time for a Static Throwdown? The Villains VS the Heroes?
For bragging rights.
What do you guys think?
Think we can take 'em? -
How else am I supposed to get my power hungry hippo?

Quote:Heh.Originally Posted by Dark_FriarIf I can play any toon at any time on any team and get experience, whatever. I'm good with the change
I think we need to remember what it's like in other MMOs.
What other game makes Teaming so easy?
Never in my gaming history have I ever had it so easy.
It's so easy, in fact, I'm now spoiled. I can actually turn DOWN teams (read: PuGs). I don't think I ever turned down an invite to a full team in Final Fantasy XI. Cause if you fit in the team, you've beaten the odds!
Now I just have to be online to be available for teaming!
Thanks Posi!
Have a Cup of Chicken Noodle Soup on me!

Just not literally. That's freakin' icky. -
O.O
HOLY CRAP!
You really ARE Out of your F'in Mind!
Great Job! -
Quote:Farming the market IS what I've been doing. And I can safely say that the amount of TFs that I've done in the past year is over 100. Maybe around 120-130. One would figure I would have gotten at least 1 by now on some toon. But, nadda, nothing, zero, zitch, empty, beggered, bereaved, divested, left without, left wanting, without gratification, deprived of that which sought, parted from desire, robbed of prize..... pretty much "Munsoned"Out of say 300 itfs me and my wife ran last year, I got maybe eight.
If that's your aim you're better off farming the market for influence and just buying the purples you want.

Quote:The sad part is after reading this and logging off, Ace went skipping around his house in the same little red dress Annie had on leaving Meowtch to sit there with this look of WTF on her face.
But, doesn't look as good in it.

I think it's the beard. -
Quote:I was just about to say that.Oh that's horrible. I understand it was going around at PAX.
Get well soon Positron!
A friend came back from PAX with it.
He went back to work 2 days after coming back because he "used up all his vacation GOING to PAX". I told him he's liable to get fired if he infects his office, and his boss finds out.
This didn't stop him.
So...
I did what any concerned friend would do.
...
I called his mother.
She drove down from Wilkes-Barre, PA and ordered him to bed, and has been taking care of him ever since.
Is Posi trying to work through it too? Or should we call HIS mother? -
I was there for the above quoted shenanigans.... HOWEVER, you will notice no lines of chat from me. As one of the biggest recipients of the dreaded CA, "Anyways" I know when to keep my big trap shut. I stopped typing as the first "silence" command was issued.
A wise man once said, "You gotta know when hold 'em, when to fold 'em, and when to shut the 'f' up!"
Sorry Cobalt if my randomness that preceded that quote, caused the situation. I know sometimes I take my off-topic commentary too far. -

OK. The last of Team Hot Knife is set to ding 50 on Wednesday.
Last thursday, Angry Sysop took it to the Rikti during Celestial's Mothership Raid, and he's now less than 2 Bubbles from 50. And I'd love to see any laggers from Team Butter come join us for our run. I noticed your team's attendance has been lacking the past few weeks.
I'm happy to see him reach 50, but I'm also sad that the Static Team will be over.
Think we can run next week too, all at 50, for old time sake? Maybe run a LRSF? -
