It would be nice if the store showed what items we purchased... I can still attempt to buy a 1 of # on an item and go all the way through check out before the server gives an error that I already own it, thus going to a 2 of #, etc...

Once you upgrade to the new issue 21 client you will need to reset your forum password and then wait 15 minutes for the server to replicate the new information to your account.

Thanks Devs!

Any way we can get that poster in the Bases?

These should be put in the store ... 2 or 3 bucks a code, this way we can cherry pick what we want and buy it.

An option is add them to the costume drop table but make them ultra rare and non trade-able.

Another option is have the codes go into random civilian chat .. "Did you hear about the PPD supply surplus? A few boxes of unfinished PPD armor have been auctioned off. The box had the listing ID - - - - - - - - - - -. Perhaps you could get one.

A final option is use those nice in game billboards.

Rewards those who pay and play not the ones with the fastest twitter fingers...

This is an interesting topic, a character who is unfit and experiences the same exact combat will need to rest more than a one who is fit. Those who hit hard versus soft will need to rest more as well. Forcing everyone to pace themselves the same way is nonsense. Some fighters explode in a fight and normally win by a quick KO. Others go the slow route and go for the long decision.

Rest is a strategic component in the game. I designed my Energy/Energy stalker with a Bruce Lee/ Mike Tyson mentality. Hit Very Hard Very Fast to conquer them and then rest after the fight. That character rests as soon as the mini area is clear so that bar is always full for the next fight. If I need to handle a tough boss or greater threat, I pick which toggles to use and start slugging it out. If I get tired, I placate run around the corner, hide and rest. Works great.

Many years ago in a game long ago called EQ, abusing rest after every mob fight when other enemies were nearby was handled by increasing mobs aggro detection of those using rest, perhaps this could be added to COH while removing the recharge timer.

If you are in Line of Sight of a Mob and Resting versus Standing, those Mobs would and should chase you down to defeat you.

The numbers guys would have to determine if resting near another player in combat would force the MOB to break aggro and to what distance would be safe versus dangerous.

Let everyone rest when they want to and attach consequences to it!

As mentioned earlier in the thread, a hero or villain / loyalist or resistance is a matter of perception isn't it? How the majority of the players in the VG/SG act towards others outside the group is the what the base alignment should be.

A good idea would be that a base alignment would change via it's membership and what the leader decides it is and thus lose and gain support from the city based factions.

A base could be viewed as:
Hero / Villain / Mercenary on Primal Earth
Power Division / Resistance Cell / Corporation on Praetorian Earth

(IE. base could be a Villainous Resistance Cell that gets support from Arachnos and the Resistance or a base could be a Mercenary Corporation which only gets support via the markets)

Much of the concepts in the GR story line is spying on the other factions and fits into unified bases well. I won't go into detail because that would be a spoiler.

If a base leader is a wants a base pure hero, then they could set alignment based restrictions directly against other alignments and thus the base will be reported as Hero. This base can earn full prestige as before by Blues, and restricted prestige by Grays, an no prestige by Reds.

If a base leader is a wants a base pure villain, then they could set alignment based restrictions directly against other alignments and thus the base will be reported as Villain.
This base can earn full prestige as before by Reds, and restricted prestige by Grays, an no prestige by Blues.

If a base leader is a wants a base pure Mercenary, then they could set NO alignment based restrictions and thus the base will be reported as Mercenary. This base can earn full prestige by Greys, and restricted prestige by Blue and Reds. Base rent would be double the cost and only paid for via a market contact. [something like Syndicate or Crey]

Base alignments can only be changed once per rent cycle. When rent is paid an email message could be sent to the base leader. This message could tell them of the bases suggested alignment thus if they should perhaps change alignments.

How could base alignments play deeper into the game? Here are some ideas!
A villain using a hero transporter would be recognized by the Medical transport system as a foe and would be broken from a team then pulled right to a jail in the Zig. That player would have to do a updated version of Break Out and beam back to base or go back to the isles.

A Hero base could have extra paragon city support like stronger rezzing in the base in hero zones, call longbow reinforcement temp power, and other goodies

The are all walking along the wall in Independence Port. :-/

I'd suggest bugging it on the spot and those reading this thread DO NOT attempt to replicate it in any way. A while back PVP confuse would some how carry over to Atlas Park. A bunch of us were just relaxing under the Atlas statue were chained confused to the point that it turned into a mess and and everyone could target allies. The admins did a global ban to everyone who was confused even if you only attacked someone accidentally. It was pretty messed up and many innocent players got marks on accounts because of an admin's poor judgment and laziness to investigate the issue. I later found out that a griefer did this on purpose and gladly that person's account was fully banned.

So if you discover that you can harm another player in a NON-PVP zone. STOP IMMEDIATELY. BUG. Wait for a GM.

Happy Six Years Everyone!!!

I like much of what is said here. I'm for increasing Team AND Solo Play. My thoughts are:
-Remove KB and Change to KD, less chasing of foes will increase damage and team popularity.
-Change Light Form to Crash Like One With Sheild [decrease recharge time a little and pull out the ability to add recharges.] This will make human solo builds very viable.
-Photon seekers could be changed to a mid ranged sniper attack with 3 heavy AOE hits.
-Return the Fitness pool to work directly in the forms.
