    I can see MasterCard/Maestro getting a headache over this issue...

    Oh and regarding http://www.mastercard.com/uk/persona...ode/index.html...
    [ QUOTE ]
    MasterCard, along with your card issuing bank, is concerned about the online security of its cardholders. MasterCard SecureCode enhances your current MasterCard card with a secret code to protect against unauthorized use of your card when you shop online at participating merchants. If your MasterCard credit or debit card or Maestro card is issued by one of the following financial institutions you can register for a MasterCard SecureCode now. If your issuer is not on the list, check back frequently-new issuers are being added all the time.

    So why are NCSoft getting forced to use this as they are/were not technically a participating merchant?
  3. Done some research for ya...

    And you will need the Nvidia PhysX Driver as well as the Nvidia 177.39 Beta Graphics Driver.

    However it seems that the PhysX Driver is currently only for Windows Vista and the 9800 Nvidia series GPU's.

    And in the PhysX CP you would need to set GeForce instead of AGEIA - Info here.

    Flight Speed

    Imoba,
    Yeah but with the ability to land from that high, superjump-ing off a tall building still hurts if your landing height happens to be below your takeoff level.

    What I meant and implied was have zero falling damage as long as superjump is active, no matter the height of the drop.
  5. Coolio

    Flight Speed

    Flight should really cap with one level 50 IO...
    But it doesn't, also as superspeed has a stealth component, shouldn't superjump have a no falling damage component... Etc.
  6. Good work but...
    Maybe you should modify your forum signature to drop 'CGT' now then?

    Oh and once the new SG listings are active I will be updating my signature links!
  7. I would much prefer missions scaled first to your level, then +level based on your reputation and team.

    This would mean you could never outlevel a mission, sort of orobouros in reverse...

    my cry for help

    At a guess Path's slotting is probably being nerfed by ED.
  9. I could agree...
    If Hero epic AT's weren't locked out of two entire power pools.
    If Peacebringers got access to 'Recall Friend' and Warshades got access to 'Hover'
    If ...
    (Well you get the point.)
  10. Ok sheesh,
    What about giving PB's access to recall friend and WS access to hover?
  11. Kheldians, The hero epic's get locked out of 2 power pools whereas the villains epic's are not...

    I would like to suggest adding a Kheldian only power pool such as the following:

    Kheldian (Only) Power Pool:
    6 Air Superiority (?)
    14 Recall Friend (8 WS)
    20 Hover (10 PB)
    20 Teleport Foe (10 WS)

    The suggested levels are based on both the current power pool levels (6, 6, 14 and 20)
    and their availability to either of the kheldian archetypes.

    In addition this would allow Peacebringers to 'Recall Friend's and Warshades to 'Hover' for longer between teleports.

    Comments please:
    (Oh and if you play a Kheldian please say so when you comment.)

    my cry for help

    May I refer you Path_Finder, towards a tool to assist you in your endeavours...

    Mids Hero (and Villain) Designer.

    Accessible and obtainable via CoHTitan
  13. Erm insanitor, See the tray at the bottom (increases to 3 if you press 'ALT')...
    Above them is a line with 'powers' 'inspirations' 'enhancements' etc. look along that line and try clicking on the '+'.
  14. Coolio

    CoH LCD

    No idea... But you'll need the updated HeroStats anyway as issue 12 caused severe memory problems with the earlier versions of both TNT-Tracker and HeroStats.
  15. Archy, it was a known bug, forum search the Bug's and Technical forum threads...

    It also depends on which version gfx card you have as the the later drivers with vista support have code for DX 9.0L which is vista's version of the window XP's DX 9.0c which runs on DX 10 and 10.1 gfx cards.
    Which then effectively throws a spanner in the works of the earlier DX 9.0c cards.
  16. Why not have it unlock both a base to 'Mission TP Beacon' and as a self teleport to mission entry by the unlocking character.

    And as long as the character using the teleport beacon or power has the destination zones exploration badges they could teleport to a mission entrance there.

    Notes:
    1. Well you would have to know the layout of a zone so you didn't teleport into the floor or a wall.
    2. This would also solve the too low a level to enter hazard zone issues if you haven't leveled your Security/Threat Level (Powers/Slots) to match your Combat (White equal Con) Level.

    Why self TP only... well there is a 'Summon the team' 'recall friend' based TP from an earlier veteran reward.

    ---

    As an additional an Icon Tailors/Facemaker Teleport would also be a welcome veteran reward, offering teleports to each visited tailor.
    (Meaning once you visited a tailor you could teleport there.)

    ---

    Additional notes for MM's:
    The levels you gain additional pets for an existing pet summon is actually based on your combat level...
    For example: Having a Threat level below 6, but a Combat level of 6 would let you have 2x tier 1 pets.
    This would be from the moment you gained the 6th Combat Level 'Level Up' message, be it in mission or otherwise.
  17. Could we get NCNC and NCE devs to view and comment on both our costume creator suggestions and player game suggestions.

    Especially as several of us have made suggestions with no feedback from any rednames...

    For example:
    SG Capes.
    A 'Cancel' Button Here. (On the exit options of the tutorials.)
    Cancel option for buffs. (Of the unwanted gifted variety.)
    Additional SG Teleport Beacons.
    Several suggestions and how they could be done. (I like my first suggestion in this thread, feedback please.)
    SG Base Medical Boost. (Non Raid.)
    "Fallen" Heroes and "Reformed" Villains.
    Offline Characters for Bases.

    Thats a few for now...

    I have also noticed that on the US forums some of the EU suggestions are reposted with a later date than on the EU forums and the NCNC devs comment on their posts sometimes giving them credit for the ideas, fair enough I know this goes both ways, but it would be nice if the NCNC devs looked in from time to time just to give us some designer level feedback...
  18. Additional options could include a single beacon with dual destinations such as Atlas Park / Galaxy City, or a quad option to those same two destinations but with the base portal location as the secondaries.
  19. Fill-in for you?
    Sorry but I'm not a dentist.
  20. Change 'CoH Shortcut' -> 'Properties' -> 'Target'
    from:
    "C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.exe"
    to:
    "C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.EU.exe"
    and check 'Start In' reads:
    "C:\Program Files\City of Heroes"
    and then change:
    C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.exe
    to:
    C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.EU.exe
    finally check that:
    C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\CityOfHeroes.exe
    is set to .exe not .eu.exe

    The locations above are for the default CoH/CoH Heroes and villains editions.

    And yes CoX is known to work on Vista.
  21. Have you changed the executable from .exe to .EU.exe too?
