Dark Ether

First off, welcome to the game!!

To answer your questions:

1. If you've bought the AE edition, upgrade your account with that code, and you'll be ready to roll after the updates download (if you haven't done all that yet)

2. Fly, and other major travel powers, are available in general at level 14 or higher. Your pre-requisite to the travel is available at level 6. You should really get there is short order.

3. If you're wanting to get into melee, and are on hero-side, I recommend a scrapper. If you prefer range, a Blaster would fit that role, but you don't have the ability to withstand as much damage. For villains, Brutes and Corrupters and the ones similar to scraps/blasters.

4. There is no best, or they all are, depending on your point of view. If you are looking for a lot of people, and play in the evenings in North America, then Freedom and Virtue are the largest, with Virtue being the focal point for those wanting some role-playing with their game.

If you prefer things a bit quieter and the likelihood of less lag in the game, then I'd look for a server in the middle of the pack and try it out. Note that the server order is from lightest load to highest load (load isn't necessarily players), with the one you were last on at the top.

Wonders what the heck I'm doing in this poor excuse for a thread.

Realization that without posting in stupid threads one will never get more than 1000 posts on the forums.


Read the whole thread...

Makes post starting with <qr> to indicate IO haven't read the whole thread.

Post-filled sigh that this topic has been brought up every month for the last hundred years. Snarky comment that it has been rebuffed every time. Amazement that the poster cannot find the same thread topic lower on page one of the forum.

Statement of hope that the OP doesn't play on servers I frequent.

Opens new browser tab to search for stuff others have linked.


Wonderment that the thread has not been locked yet, but gratitude that I got a shot in anyway. Add tag to warn people to protect their sanity and avoid the thread.



Edit: Edited to correct typo and take out one word I thought was too harsh.

I know that the NCSoft sites will not load if there is a peer blocker of some sort in play. I'm not sure if that's the case where you are, but that's one possibility.

This is some cool new stuff for the i-17!

I'll really appreciate the new badges and:

Positron Task Force Update: This Task Force has been split into two halves and dramatically upgraded and updated to ramp up the fun. The final battle of the Task Force takes place in the Faultline Dam and incorporates the new Dark Mirror enemy.


I think this means hell has frozen over?

I think I've had a hamburger with tartyrsause on it before....

Nice progression, Psi! I was thinking Calvin and Hobbes at first...

That should looks cool.

And most of all.....Congratulations!!

Welcome back, and keep up the good work!

Those are very cool - congrats!

Larissa does some cool cakes...maybe she'll pipe in here with some good ideas.

Me, I don't know too much ... as long as it's chocolate it's good!

More coolness from Deebs - yay!!

These are really nice - I like the style.

My votes:

1. Battlewraith
2. Happy Dan
3. Clutch

Sounds like I'll be happy with the new system I have in the planning stages - I'm going with a 5870 as well, but I am thinking of an AMD Phenom processor.

Wow...it seems like these Friday things are happening like every week here lately!

93% of all statistics are made up.

I have some of it framed and on the wall, and others framed and not up - I'll swap out occasionally. Some stuff I don't have framed yet, but I like to so it'll have some extra protection.

Congrats!

I'm just glad I have a Wassy original for when you get famous!!

Bah-dum-pssshh!!

I log in and out of a few servers, and for the last two weeks or so Pinnacle has been solidly in the middle of the pack every time. Yay us!
