    That's coming along nicely!
  2. Still not a fan of those super long boot toes (like the witchie ones), but the rest looks nice! More costumes, please!!
  3. Very cool! I like the Talos one a lot.
  4. Very nice pieces!! Congrats!

    Looks like Shulkie's "leaning" on you a bit there.
  5. Very nice! I especially like the pose on the second piece.

    Hate to do this

    If you've paid for a year recently, your subscription expiration should now show (under your NCSoft account info) as a year from now. If you don't want auto renewal, remove your card information (change your billing to something else).

    You may be able to contact NCSoft and explain your situation to them and see if they'll credit back to your card, if you wanted it to stop immediately.

    You better have a pretty darn beefy video card to run at 1920x1080 though.

    I run that resolution on my couple year old laptop, as well, so it really is not taking that much of a vid card.

    Also, now you said beefy, and made me hungry.
  9. Yeah, those will likely be 1920x1080 (for a 16:9 monitor), which is supported - it's the resolution I use, as well.

    Very cool! I hope Roady gets enough for his shots and feed, and that little "fixin'" thing.

    The locale sure looked familiar - that may be it.

    Yeah, I find myself breaking those gates most every time while waiting on that tf to form up.

    No, he sorta passed out, then awoke to find himself outside the cave.



    Unless we both missed something...

    do i have to get more RAM now? system requirements state that 2G are good without ultramode.

    I'd make sure you don't have any unnecessary programs running with the game first off. While 2 Gb should be okay, and if your system is otherwise good, a couple extra Gb of Ram wouldn't hurt - it's relatively cheap and will provide enough memory for the game while allowing the system and other items to be running.

    The Television is working with people on finding any memory leaks. You'll probably want to check out that thread and see if it helps you, too.
  17. Plus the hot chick rule??


    Also, reminding everyone...extra time doesn't mean forgetting for an extra four weeks! Uncle Ben and Gwen Stacy said so!!

I am hoping that this gives me a fairly good FPS not to mention that I also use this for school and work.

    Your new system should work fine. Just don't try to max out anything. Play with the settings until you find what you like, and don't look back.

    When you get a few more bucks saved up, see what you can do to upgrade the power supply (most likely won't have much extra "oomph" for you), and look at something like a 5850 vid card.

But who are these Greeks to think they know how to pronounce their own language, after all?

    Again, this is not history. This is not Latin class. This is a game based on comics. Don't sweat the small stuff.

But the bug is not there for the other costume slots, nor indeed, for clones. The support response to this bug suggested it might not qualify as particularly high priority


    Hehehe....and I love the freakshow guy watching. You know he's bet one which one would wake up first!
  22. Yet another month when I'd like to vote for a bunch of them...you all are doing nice work! But here goes:


    1. Pyro
    2. Shia
    3. Scooter
