  1. In a real sense! When I fight more than 2 foes I'm having major lag issues, screen frozes and then I'm dead, before even I can use inspirations. Furthermore, I find sometimes I'm fighting foes meanwhile my teammates are way ahead of me fighting real foes, then screen turns to "normal" and I see my foe is not only dead, but also disappeared, so that means it was defeated some time ago. It's very frustrating, I rely on my teammates to not being killed pointlessly, but I can't solo any mission, because I'm defeated all the time, I'm losing shields because I have no end but I can't use any catch a breath because I don't notice I'm out of it until I'm almost defeated. Is this related to Winter Event or what? Almost every single time there's a new event or issue I lag badly, I was playing quite smoothly for the last couple of months but now it's unbearable.

    Bigger teams

    lol to BlueRabbit vivid image! In a more serious tone, I think it's hard enough having a team nowadays (holiday, Winter Event, and so on) that having a 12 people team would be almost impossible. And welcome to the forums ih8ul!
  3. Boxing Day? What's the point of calling a day in that way? Is it a good idea punching and smacking people on the streets after a lovely and peaceful day like Christmas?

    Try turning your "Receive email from NC" option on.

    I had already seen that thread, but didn't receive any e-mail at all, however I receive them when an Issue is released, also Events, but haven't received any this time.
  5. Well, not for everybody but just for 6 and 12 month suscription plan... anyway, as I haven't seen any other thread related to this, I wanted you to know what I've just found in the US main website; I've checked my EU account and voilĂ , there was this offer too, so here is the LINKY .

  7. great idea, finally something different to talk and discuss about
  8. I'd say earning as many badges as possible... not with all my 50s, which would be a bit insane, but at least 1 from each game/server... Defcon Kid (CoH Defiant), Mordru (CoV Defiant) and Tiro Certero (CoH Union)... and that's pretty easy atm with the brand new Day Jobs badges system hehe! Besides I can progress them quite fast because I'm playing atm some lvl 30+ toons, so the 50s are stationed in the same place for several days in a row before I move them to another one or log them to check their bars progression.

    Thumbs up for Spade suggestion! But I wouldn't make that as something temporal, as most characters have 5 cossie slots, it can be turned into one of them, after all, you still have 4 slots to fashion your own cossies!
  10. Somebody has to say it, it seems... can I have your stuff?
  11. So if I want that power I MUST keep logging out in the same place? If so, that's truly silly, as I can't move to other locations for more day jobs badges.
  12. Ok, already earned "Rapid Response Member" accolade, which grants a Base Teleport power... but I haven't been able to find it in my powers list... have I done anything wrong? or shall I keep logging out in the same place for more time?
  13. Even being one update per year, like sports simulators games, I'd sign this suggestion from FFM. I don't know what's the situation in other European countries, but here in Spain you can find the CoV release version (I mean, the RELEASE! so Issue 7!) in just a few stores... I think I posted some time ago about this, as a suggestion for improving and increasing the player base, in front of the HUGE number of WoW boxes everywhere. Also more TV announcements and advertisements, I watch some WoWs from time to time, it seems that's the only MMORPG that has ever existed, but NOTHING about CoX.

    Sigh after they release weapon customisation, shields and all the other weapon loving, now they release 'Paladin' armor and rename it Valkyrie.

    I mean, scale mail come on. whats next? chain mail and sg tabards? Maybe wizard robes? oh wait... theres the magic pack coming too....

    Since the game changed hands it seems the devs have been doing everything possible to follow in WoW and Warhammers footsteps, weapons, shields, magic pack, this and pvp revamp.

    Im really tired of it when can we have some stuff like sheaths and holsters that we been asking for, for god knows how long? What about some good old sets like we used to have before weapon customisation was out? how about some mutant parts? more hairstyles?

    At least the cyborg pack was different, now we got two upcoming WoW armor clones :/

    Theres plenty of hero and villain type things that could be done. Theres no need to go making cheap knockoffs of other games armor this is the reason why ive left other games before.

    I don't think "extra packs" are WoW-like... just think the Cyborg one, or one it hasn't been mentioned yet, the Wedding Pack... I can't see elfs or trolls or giants running away with their bridal veils moving with the breeze xD.
  16. I'm starting to think it will be fun to see lowbie toons holding much more teleport powers than attacks or defenses... imagine: Pocket D, Base TP, Ouroboros Portal, Vet. "Assemble the Team" (in just a few days), and, next spring, this "Valkyrie Mission Teleport".... LOOL!

    5 different teleport powers! Besides the ATs with Recall Friend - Teleport - TP Foe, or WS inherent teleport... DOUBLE LOOOOL!!!
  17. I hope there's no lost items when WW/BM goes live again... already put on sale an Aegis for 10 million influence

    any advice?

    Thx for replies guys; my point was looking for what power had more Defense, and it seems is Maneuvers, which also wastes more Endurance. I think that won't be a problem when I pick Transference, anyway. And for anti-KB, I did put a Steadfast in Increase Density in a previous kinetic toon and it worked pretty well, so I was thinking on doing that again.
  19. Defcon_Kid

    any advice?

    As a kinetic, I don't need a proper travel power because of Inertial Reduction, but I was wondering what power would give me more defense, Maneuvers or Combat Jumping fro Leaping pool, so I'd pick between them... any advice?
  20. Sorry for double-posting GR, as I had created a specific thread, but as this seems to be the proper place, you can delete my other thread... my point is that some double-badge Day Jobs locations don't work properly in comparison to test server, at least the few I've already checked, like Vanguard Base in RWZ; it should award 2 badges for logging out INSIDE Vanguard Base and NEAR Portal Base, but when I logged in last night only the Vanguard one showed a progress bar.
  21. As I had placed most of my 50s toons in double-badge locations, I'm unpleasantly surprised to see that I've got only 1 progress bar out of the 2 possible ones, however I did progress in both of them in the test server. For example, logging out in Vanguard Base near Portal Base should award both "Vanguard Recruit" and "Monitor Duty", but only "Vanguard Recruit" has a progress bar.

    Furthermore, it seems that in some cases the progress bar is smaller than it was supposed to be.

    Finally, I've been able to earn "Law Enforcer" with a couple of toons that had been out for more than 21 days, but others that I have moved almost nothing for the same time, just log in, check Wentworth's and logging out, have less than a half progress in their bars.

    New website! :D

    I love the new website! I've noticed the same as Liz (the Movie section, I mean), but the overall impression is great!
