  1. When we purchase this power is it for the whole account or just a single toon? Thanks

    Laptop Question

    I ws hoping for the 17.3 monitor. I am not a huge BB fan either but I do have some gift cards there which is why I was leaning towards going there if I could find something. Whats the big difference between the link you showed me Hyper and this model for $1300:

    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/ASUS+-+L...&skuId=1774899

    Looks pretty similar to one on Newegg but, as I previously stated, I don't know much about laptops. Thanks

    Actually I noticed the g73 has a lower max resolutionm 1600x900 vs 1920x1080 in the one you posted Hyperstrike. May have to rethink the bigger screen for the better resolution

    Laptop Question

    I am probably looking to spend around $1200 or so. I have about $100 in Best Buy gift cards so I will probably look there first. Would really like a 17" monitor if possible. I know the Alienware stuff is way out of my price range but a buddy of mine told me the Asus laptop was a decent gaming system. Thanks in advance for all the responses

    Laptop Question

    I am considering buying a laptop, which I have never done, and I wanted to know what the requirements would be to run COH in Ultra mode comfortably (video card, ram, etc..). Since I have always been a desktop user my experience with laptops is nill. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks
  5. I was wondering how people were alpha slotting their Crabs. My guy is 50 with primarily ranged attacks. I was leaning towards Recharge to get my pets and Omega Manuever up quicker but was looking for feedback. Thanks
  6. I understand the Devs are busy and do not respond to every PM. Trust me after 7 years of COH i am used to NcSofts "customer service"! I do not have access to their usage time information and the like but must wonder if there are more people on at 5AM than 7AM, or if one day is busier than another.

    In fact I did not complain about the regular Thursday maintenance despite the fact that I think the timing stinks. My problem is that for the second week in a row they have added a 2 hour downtime to Tuesday at the same time as the Thursday downtime. My gut tells me that this is due to the Weekly Strike Target and if its true then this will be a weekly occurence. Now if they want to move maintenance from Thursday to Tuesday then thats not really an issue but if suddenly I am lose 4 prime playing hours (for me) instead of 2 then I am going to have to seriously reconsider where I spend my gaming dollars.

    Not that anyone really cares but I work outside for a utility company and by the time I get home at night I am usually too tired to jump on the computer. Mornings are my COH time and this maintenance/issue is just beyond annoying.

    If they adjust the timing so YOU can play, that means it is almost guaranteed to screw someone else out of THEIR playtime. So, to make things easier, they schedule it for the time the IT guys are first showing up for work (probably). I know some of the servers are physically located in Virginia, so maybe they are splitting the difference so they don't have to make people come it at too strange of an hour to do it.

    I have sent many PMs to devs and got no response. They are busy, and don't have time to respond to every single PM that hits their in-box. You and I receive a PM every so often, rarely more than a few in a week. The devs get hundreds every day. Responding to all of them would take up the majority of their work day, and I, for one, would rather have them working on the game than firing off 400 PM responses.

    The few times I DID get a response from one of them, it was very seldom more than a couple sentences, sometimes not even that much. I once got a reply from Castle that consisted of "Not gonna happen", and that was the entirety of it.

    Don't take it personally that they didn't respond.
  7. I work 11AM- 7PM (usually much later) and this is the second week in a row I have woke up to the servers being down on Tuesday in addition to the normal downtime on Thursday. Personally I do not know why they start downtimes at 7AM EST. Couldn't they be moved back to 5AM EST? Still it is better than the old 9 AM-11AM EST times they started with. I have a sent private messages to the Devs and got no response. Does anyone know if these live issues are going to be ongoing? If so it is going to put a major crimp in my playing time, essentially cutting out an additional 2 hours a week. I realize 7-9 is not prime time for most of you but it is for me and these live issues and the regular maintenance are just a pain.

    Remember NcSoft not all your customers live on the West Coast and when an almost 7 year player sends you repeated emails about an issue it might be good customer service to actually respond to them and not just ignore them.

  10. Does anyone know of a Good guide to the Tarikoss Strikeforce? In fact any guide to Villain SF's would be very helpful. Thanks
