Hey Ocho,

I'm a 60 month + vet, and probably hit 63 this week. I hate to ask this because I'm sure you guys are really busy on your end with GR coming up. But just curious if I didnt get my invite last week was because I had to leave for about 5 months due to the economy,
Or invites are still being sent out and I just have to wait?
My email and contact info is still the same, I even updated my contact number just in case.
I was able to log in once last week to character creator but then got booted out.

Thanks
@Blood

Just wondered if anyone else with 60+ months "did not" get invite.
I know, I know, it really doesn't matter now, just curious if anyone else like myself got left out.
And were you told why?

My account is current, contact info is up to date, only thing I can think of is I was gone for June up until the beginning of December, but I will hit 63 months this week.

Thanks

Thank you je_saist for taking the time to answer my questions. My search-fu is weak.

to answer your question: I'm completely broke, but if someone were to donate a new shiny vid card, to a 63+ month vet, or send me cool birthday present for next month (March 19), I would gladly appreciate it. :P

But seriously what vid card would be compatible for my system?

But again thanks for answering.

Thanks
@Blood

Question for a computer wiz---->

This is what I bought back in Oct 2006 from Newegg.com

*Intel Core 2 Duo E6700 Conroe 2.66GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor
*GeForce 7950GT 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI Support
*OCZ Gold Series 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 667 (PC2 5400) Dual Channel
*Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3500630AS 500GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Hard Drive
*APEVIA X-Navigator ATXA8NW-AL/500 Silver / Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case 500W

I had a buddy of mine put this together and wondered,
1. will I even be able to continue to play after GR comes out?
2. or can I continue to play, just not play the GR event and zones?
3. if I cant, can I still upgrade my vid card with my setup?

Thanks
Blood

*Also; No, the females won't get the "Wizard Beard"

I would also like to mention no skull mask was found for female - unless I missed it. Anyone else find it please let me know.
Btw great job on magic pack, it has been my favorite pack so far.

[ QUOTE ]
Wow they make up for the weak-sauce of the 57 month with the 60 month. I mean most vets have so many free tailor tokens no one actually pays anymore.

[/ QUOTE ]

agreed, 57 months is pretty lame, maybe they can add another unlockable custom, or one of the many things suggested on the forums. (Can't find post atm).

60 gets a thumbs up!!

great job

Very nice, I can't wait to see what some of the Costume Sets look like. Maybe some free costumes for i12, hmm?

[/ QUOTE ]

Just to clarify for everyone, to my knowledge there are no new costume items added. The sets from the pull down are just the collection of all the items in that list. For example, if you want to have all the "steampunk" items (say to start and tweak your character from there) it will select all of those for you. But it doesn't mean that there are items for every slot in that set; just that it puts what available costume items there are on your character.

Thanks Light, I was just about to post a question about that.

Okay, so out of 8 pets, why are there only 2 different buffs?

[/ QUOTE ]

Originally, there were 2 pets: The Faeries. Then someone (may even have been me, I don't remember) brought up the fact that Faeries won't match everyones concepts and so, the Wisps were born. Then, someone suggested the Drones for Tech types and at the last minute the Oscillators were tossed in. All told, a more classic example of Feature Creep you will never find!

So, since there were only two pets originally, there were only 2 powers made. I didn't have time to make 6 more powers to match the new entities.

As for why they are so fragile, let's just say if they were at all "tough" I could exploit them horrendously. So, they are fragile. They CAN be kept alive if you are a ranged AT, but melee types will have a hard time of it.

[/ QUOTE ]

All my fault...sorry about that.

[/ QUOTE ]

No need to apologize, but if you really feel that bad, maybe you can buff our 36 month pets with some minor damage.

I am still very happy about the pet buffs even if they are really fragile and most of my toons are melee. It still helps the team.

I paid for the expansion just for the heck of it. It's ok, there could have been a little more; like a emote for flying doves, or maybe even a temp power walking stick for men, and wedding bouquet for women. A heart tattoo for men and women on the left or right arm under the shoulder option would have been nice. A badge would have been nice for this expansion pack as well, but no biggie.

I do have one major suggestion, since the new wedding skirts have a choice of two colors; why not make the new skin tops for females with a choice of two colors.

Also, we need more female tattoos. One of my toons is a rough girl who needs some tat's.

Btw, Nice work on the new outfits.

[ QUOTE ]
Well, I tested it, and even the Red Cap blades are fairly large as well. If you want to see the other results, you can check them out here.

[/ QUOTE ]

Nice job Nuetra! Maybe we can get a bunch of people to back your this idea up and get those blades and ideas instead of the crappy looking ones we saw on http://news.curse.com/details/3213/ .

how long do we still have for double xp?

[ QUOTE ]
That is the bottom line. Getting people to stay.

[/ QUOTE ]

Totally agree. I may not stay if I5 sucks like I4 did.
ie need more outfits, less clipping, and body tats that you can specify different locations of tat on body. And yet, still NO TRENCH COATS ????

[ QUOTE ]
] On a side note, I've found myself paying more attention to my Xbox and Sega CD isos (yeah, Sega CD, thats how bad this game is getting) and less on CoH. Who needs the aggrevation of perma-nerf anyways?

[/ QUOTE ]
KOTOR II and Revenge of the Sith are calling my name more that COH has been since I4.
I have been playing this game since the first month its been out, and I noticed at least 15 of my friends on teamspeak, and about 30 other friends have left since I4. I usually play at least once a day. now its about once a week.

The attempt to nerf pling has to stop! Because it is actually nerfing the FUN for some!!!

Hopefully I5 comes out soon, and I wont have to close my account. That is if its good enough to keep me.
