Completely signed your post, Mr. Questionmark... I don't know the situation in the UK or the rest of Europe, but at least here in Spain CoV boxes are quite hard to be found (the ones on sale are the SAME ones that the one I bought years ago with Issue 6 or so), and forget it about the CoH ones. ANY kind of box would be appreciated.

If you really want to get much more customers, you should run the same policy as WoW, as I posted about this several times... the HUGE amount of the WoW different editions filling the shelves, T.V. advertisements, while it's almost impossible to find anything related to CoH/CoV.

Although I mainly play heroside, I know many people who will kneel before devs if there were more SFs redside. I don't mind if this happen in new maps or the old ones, but I stopped playing villains because the lack of variety.

As posted in IJ, I farmed these badges last night; just for general information Hordelings (needed 200 for badge+gladiator) show up in lvl 14-16 red side missions, while Hellfrosts+Succubi (needed 50 for also badge+gladiator) appear in lvl 34 red side missions.

I agree with you JawDropper, the absolute lack of information is even worse that knowing what's really happening, as it's all speculation and pure conjecture flying away.

Leaving hundreds of customers cutted off any support or information is generating a general wave of distrust in NCsoft future plans (in case there would be any, which I seriously doubt) and is not a worthy economical policy in my opinion, specially with Champions and DC knocking at the door.

So is it confirmed, then? 1st of March? I could give it a go with my granite aswell.

Big grats to all of you who participated in such a fast and successful run! Very impressive!

As I already posted on Infernal website, I can offer either a lvl 8, or 2, or even 16 villain to unlock DJ if needed, however I'm running my own TFs schedule in Union along the weekends, so I will be able to help you using any of them just for 1 hour or so.

Thanks for the well wishes, everyone.

My position is 'potentially redundant' within the Brighton office, and at the current time I intend to accept voluntary redundancy. I'm not interested in living in the US.

I hadn't written anything yet in the hope that it was all a terrible nightmare, but it seems it's a terrible truth, which is even worse.

Best of luck GR, you'll be missed. And... can I have your stuff? Sorry, couldn't help myself.

I can understand that, in a worldwide economic crisis situation as we are having, companies must save money from any possible source, but leaving hundreds of european players without any kind of support, even temporarily, talks quite bad about NC's customer policy. I just hope that the solution that can be taken, does not mean for us european players to lose our actual status (vet rewards, toons, names, etc).

Can someone post the level you get to so I can catch up during the week please

I think it was lvl 11, according to what I've read.

Defcon/Icenii - Sorry about Saturday evening. I was going to switch toons after the RV AV hunt to invite your demons to the SG, but had to log off pronto and forgot to sort this out. I'll be online playing villains tonight, but can switch to heroes to invite you to the SG, or alternatively we can do this tomorrow when we're scheduled to meet up for the SG evening.

[/ QUOTE ]

No worries m8, I'll be there tomorrow evening for both playing and being invited to the SG.

Btw, I also have Atlas safeguard available in 1 of my toons, in case someone needs it.

I think I've solved my little problem, just changed the keymapping a bit, now I use another key and my screenshots are as they used to be.

Already knew of Screenshots folder, the point is that, after pressing "Del" a few times now using Vista Basic, there's no Screenshots folder in my CoH directory, as it happened when running it under XP Professional... maybe there's any keymapping option that I haven't found yet?

I wasn't sure about where to put this Thread, so it's up to you GR to move it to a more appropiate place... well, my question is about taking screenshots using Vista; just bought a new laptop with Vista Home Basic as OS, and I wanted to know how I can take screenshots as I used to do in my previous XP Professional computer, by pressing "Del" as I used to do, and even saving them in My Documents by pressing "Del" and then opening "Paint". Any suggestions or ideas?

er... I've created 2 different toons but haven't found anyone capable to invite them to Infernal Justice yet; names will be Criogenia (fender) and Poniente (blaster). I didn't want to play past lvl 5 so I could make a lvl pact with any other player, but I can also get Atlas or Kings Row safeguards if needed.

lvl 11???? jeeezzz... I hoped you reached lvl 5 or so, but being so many people I guess it was pretty fast and fun lvling up. Updating my situation, I've been phoned from the Tech Service this morning, and they assure me that my pc will be ready on Friday morning. Nevertheless, I'm working on an emergency plan so I could be online even tomorrow evening.

Watching your suggestion, Sarg, and what Protector has posted about the huge amount of defenders and controllers, I think I'll definitely make a blaster, still divided between fire/ice, or ice/ice.

As my pc is under repairement, I've been called from the Tech Service this morning and they have assured me that it will be ready for Friday morning; if that's the case, I'd join for either Saturday or Sunday. Already have these badges with a couple of toons but let me check them properly and I'll update the ones I'd be interested in earning them.

HI again, that's me from the same Call Centre xD... I had thought on creating an ice/cold defender, but it seems we will have much more fenders/trollers than blasters, so I could make either create just a blaster, or both fender and blaster and pick to play the one who fits best, I just hope being ready for tomorrow, or the sooner possible.

Hi guys,just typing a bit in a Call Centre ; as I told Sarg via PM, my pc is under repairement atm, thx to Fulgor who sent me an email I've been told on what was decided in your last Tuesday'meeting and I can tell you that I've just received a confirmation email of my registration in Infernal Justice forums.

Cya next Tuesday (hopefully!!)!

Thx for replies guys; I don't regret having bought this Collector's Edition specially for the Heroclix figures, but I wish that the information would had been much more specific about the little details like this, as I found the info about "Destined One" badge in paragonwiki AFTER unwrapping it lol. Never mind, at least I can wear an Arachnos cape with all my villains and got 7 brand Heroclix figures yay!

Got a little problem with this version of the game, however you feel free to move it to the proper forum section, GR...

Just unwrapped my brand new City of Villains Collector's DVD Edition, with its Heroclix figures, its Rogue Isles'map, its Game Activation Card... If I'm not mistaken THIS special edition is the one on which you unlock certain cossie pieces, like Wolf Spider helmets and Arachnos capes... well, after upgrading my account using this Card Code, now it says, after the Serial Codes used on it, "Collector", so I guess I used it right... the fact is I have logged in a couple of my villains, and there's no "Destined One" badge, no cossie pieces unlocked, nothing.

Now I'm writing this I'm also checking paragonwiki and there it says that I should have bought the Heroes one, instead the Villains one, BUT just the Villains one is on sale atm (or I've been unable to find the Heroes one even in U.S. store, whatever).

To sum up... Have I used wrong the Game Activation Card? or badge + cossie pieces are no longer available? or are they available BUT I bought the wrong game? help PLZZZZZZZZ!!!

I've been saving costumes from several of my toons, and there's something I don't understand, or in other words, something I missed and now I can't make it work properly... I wanted for a toon to use the same costume already saved from another one, but after using "Load" button nothing changed, the costume remained the same o0?

Furthermore, I wanted for a toon his 3rd costume to become the 1st one, so I used the 1st one and went to the Tailor, then used "Load" button, selected the one I wanted, then Continue and... same as before, nothing happened... Any advice on this? What have I done wrong?

really? I lost count on so many patches almost every single day before the Issue was released... I did miss that info, then; if that's true, it's working as intended, because I had found several double-triple day jobs badges locations that allowed me to earn them at the test server, meanwhile now I cannot do that... well, except Vanguard base, because sticking my characters near base portal I've earned Monitor Duty, Vanguard, Patroller and a couple of Accolades in all characters I've tried that. Weird, don't you think?

Furthermore, Praf... in test server, logging out in some locations awarded me several day jobs badges at the same time (for example, Hospital in Cimerora, or Helicopter in Bloody Bay), but in "live" game I'm just making some kind of progress in 1 of the several badges available (Cimerora, not Hospital, Helicopter not Predator PvP).

Weird, last night I was able to play 1 SF and 1 TF, without almost any lag at all... or at least it worked better than in the previous days.

So, I take it you've read nothing about the 3 main undersea internet cables getting cut over Christmas, and the rest of the network, notably Europe, bearing a lot of the extra load? They're currently under repair. It's been all over TV and internet news...

Didn't notice anything... when did it happen? over Christmas, you say? Well, that fits with the date my issues started, more or less a week ago.
