Given the new of Nvidia-based GPUs kinda going 'bye bye' in the future I wonder if CoH support for ATI-based cards will improve.

WinVista 64 bit. ATI 4850 1GB
Overclocked AMD X2 CPU
ASUS AMD chipset board (latest and greatest AMD chipset and southbridge as of Dec 08)
Zero lockups. Zero crahses. no issues with graphic glitches. I haven't tried fisabling catalyst AI yet, but that usually causes funkadelic colors when you enable things you shouldn't.

my update...disabling enhanced gfx in the game and letting CCC run the show makes the game run just fine. Only probably is enhanced water...which when set on anything besides 'off' makes the water hyper-reflective...like, into the air reflective. So I turned it off and I'm fine with that. That's life.

I just got an HD 4870 and was having the no FSAA problem as well on catalyst 9.2. What fixed it was setting FSAA, Depth of Field, Bloom, Water Effects, and Desaturation all to off, and then set AA to 4x via the Catalyst Control. It was frustrating, though, since AA would not turn on if any of those settings was enabled to any extent on the ingame menu.

I actually think Windows 7 is horking me when it comes to ATI...CCC is not supported for Win7 yet so the game handles everything.

An update to my last post:

That doesn't seem to work in my case, anymore. Forgot to post an update as I just booted back into Ubuntu and washed my hands of it.

Canceling my CoH account, for the time being.

I'm a stranger to this incompatibility, and I have to say canceling will be on my agenda too if I don't discover a quick fix for the CoH issues with my new card...and I'm coming up on 60 months in. They are just too many hero-based MMORPGs coming up the pipe to deal with this.

Charging real world money for costumes and emotes? Wow. You guys have really sunk to a new low. I mean for the love of Christ offer SOMETHING tangible. More CHARACTER SLOTS. Offer a new AT, powersets. ANYTHING. But your CHARGING for costumes and emotes? Are you trying to piss off your customers?

Here's a wild, radical thought for you.

*If you don't think it's worth it, don't buy it.*

Your powers will work the same, and somehow I don't think your lack of a /throwrosepetals or /throwrice emote is going to make that AV fight any harder.

Totally agree. And I, for one, (welcome our new...) am very glad there's no badge associated--since that would necessitate me spending $10 on this. I have no interest in the tux (and even less on ANY emote) so it's saving me money.

No pay for badges...that's a good thing. It's not like you have to pay for the event mishes, so who cares?

Very cool.
