Defiant was always my home from home

My first 50 was Superflame a fire/axe tank

My best memories always included friends, some of whom have left the game like Londoner, Kabaal, Muddy and Rubberneck but Rhi, Nana's, Rabbit, Nova, Miss Kitty, are still around and they all made the game fun..
I rem London always guarding the door while i ran a dreck map just incase any would try and escape lol, Rubberneck using his tank Fruity Balls to pull a GM to portal corp just to kill lowbies looking for a power level. All the many TF's played with the above crew which always had a smooth out-come even with Rabbit talking dirty the whole TF lol

These memories i will keep forever or until the alzheimer's kicks in..

Coh i will miss it greatly but life goes on and hopefully someone will realize its potential and relaunch it someday......fingers crossed

They Hybrid slot just seems a waste of my time until they fix the bugs as most of the powers have little or no effect on MM's,

Assault---has no effect on pets
Support-- does not provide the double values for pets
Control --has little benefit to MM's other than the status resists
Melee----unless your a tankermind its pretty pointless

just feels like another rushed issue which TBH i have come to expect and as usual no love for the MM since the level shift bug in the Mag trial makes MM's unwanted for a NON-farm run lol

As a regular MM player i can verify that the pets DO indeed aggro on both Marauder and Siege and are almost impossible to call back

The only work around is to put your pets on passive(heel) before entering the courtyard (BAF) and after the prisoner break out (LAM)

It does not only apply to bots as i have tried with thugs, mercs(yes i have one!), demons and zombies. I haven't got a ninja high enough as they always drive me mad with there super speed sprints of doom after a fleeing foe.

What?

More maintenance??

Seriously guys forget Freedom, just rename it, here are some suggestions...

City of Downtime
City of Maintenance
City of Unable to access server
City of Stfu EU players
City of Pay without Play

I could go on but i think you get the point and no im not asking for compensation because i know only too well you will not give anyone anything for the downtime. Because after all we just sit and swallow it like a cheap ****** :P

[QUOTE= We look forward to seeing your best costume-crafting on display tomorrow night, Thursday, September 15th, at 5:00 PM PDT (8:00 Eastern) on the Exalted Server in Pocket D. We'll be judging the costumes aesthetically, but also whether they tell a story.[/QUOTE]

No time posted for the EU players, is that a hint??
I guess we EU players will mostly be asleep anyway

Defiant server

Rem my first 50 Superflame (fire/axe) tank
Meeting Rubberneck a lvl50 rifle blaster watching him clear a large mob and then starting to dance lol
Watching Fruity Balls pull a GM to portal corp to wipe out all the leeches
Meeting Ren and Galaxy Guardian on my first ever hollows team and we became great friends
My first ever PVP kill in sirens call
My first death in sirens call at the hands of Stalkobot
Meeting Londoner on a dreck map, i was tanking and he guarded the door

latest news is that the servers should be back up around 3.30pm PST or 11.30pm UK time

Looks like servers will be back up around 11.30pm UK time

Well this day has pretty much sucked,

1st we get some morning gaming, then maintenance (which is expected) followed by a roll back which costs us the gametime we had in the morning followed by more downtime while they try to figure out what they messed up ... Glad i dont pay for this...oh wait i DO!!

Feel free to flame as at this point i really dont give a **** .

And yes i know im whining and i know it has happened before but this time it had to happen on my one day off

Same for me, lost BM bids/sales ,xp, tip mission daily completions, and badges

Thanks for all the replies guys,

Just a few things to note,

1st when i said i dismiss the pets i was talking about using the petcom_dismiss all command and not dismissing individually, so even this command didnt work for me
2nd in my case i needed the pets outside the mission as it was a kill mission in creys folly i was trying to get done
3rd logging out and jumping onto another alt then relogging back to the mm seems to be the only work around that works so for me in team this becomes a right royal pain in the *** and also a pain for my teammates

So to sum up thanks for all the input guys and hopefully the powers that be will recognise how important it is to fix this bug

Message from Gm's is that they are aware of the problem and are looking for a fix, they also say the best way to get pets back under your control is for you to attack enemies and that should release the pets, ill try this once the servers are back up

Hi

When zoning my pets become "stuck" and cannot be dismissed. This has happened on the ferry and train and even entering missions.
Its making it very difficult to play any of my MM's as the only solution to the problem seems to be constant zoning until (if your lucky) the pets start to respond again.
I have bugged/petetioned the problem.

Has anyone else experienced this bug or is it just me?

Yes i have been having a similar problem but it only seems to effect toons that have switched sides in my case.
When entering a new mission it sometimes fails to load and then disconnects, upon reconnection to coh i find the toon that i was on has jumped accross the map (in nerva he always ends up inside the building at the science trainer) so i cant see how its a problem at my end since i have never had this BUG before.
On another note there is also the MM pet bug which seems to put pets out of sync with the game upon leaving a ferry/train or entering an outside mission map. The pets are totally unresponsive and cannot be dismissed so therefore cannot be resummoned. This leaves you with either logging of for 20 mins and trying again or keep zoning as i have found this will eventually re-sync the pets. Teleporting them will not re-sync them either.
Its a bug which has stopped me playing my MM's as its a right pain in the *** when it happens
Both bugs have been reported to the powers that be so hopefully we will see a fix for them soon.
