    To clear some confusion, the online shop sells codes to upgrade your account, and your account is platform independant.

    If you want to play on a Mac, you must buy the Mac pack or the corresponding retail shop item.

    If you want to play on a PC, you must buy one of the PC packs or corresponding retail item.

    Optionally you can buy any other pack to upgrade your account (which is platform independant) to give you access to the items from the pack.

    You can in theory own a Mac and a PC, and run CoX on either machine from a single account.

    I hope this clears things up for you, as this subject is giving me a headache

    Not quite right. If you have an active account, and a Mac, you can simply download the Mac software FREE and play on your active account. There is no need to buy the Mac booster to play on a Mac.

    Now, I'm not fully up on the LOTG recharge bonus, but I was udner the impression you can only stack the same recharge bonus 5 times, regardless of what set the bonus comes from?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    LOTG IO is an exception, because it is a single IO bonus, not a SET bonus, I believe.
  3. Wow, suspicion confirmed by Judgement_Dave, I feel genuinely honoured!

  4. I could be wrong, but there is a space for a bio for your contact, certainly for custom ones. This seems a waste of space since "Follow" is the only option if you right click on the contact.
  5. Dave, you need an official forum title for your posts on this beta.

    Now Cryptic have done something that puts them in a box with SOE: there are some people who will now avoid products with Cryptic on the box because they don't aprove of the way they do buisiness.

    To be honest, that's all that he claimed.

    We've received a comment from Mr. Ivan Sulic with an apology and felt it should be reflected here, "So, to the point then... I am sorry. Cryptic is sorry. This should not have happened. It was inappropriate and it will not happen again. Please understand that we truly did not intend any offense, though. The people involved are very sorry about it, believe me. This has been a big headache when it should have been as simple as, 'Hey, any MMO guild folks want to play Champions?'" It's great to have this cleared up, as nobody at Massively wanted any of this to remain unclear to either ourselves or to you, our readers.

  8. Pretty much every character of mine has a suit for formal occasions.
  9. HUGE CONGRATULATIONS! That is a brilliant achievement



    On the US servers a Fire Blaster soloed it!

  10. You, sir, are a hero of unparalleled genius! This is fantastic.
  11. Sewer Trial (because we did it on Sunday with 4 mins to spare):

    "Semper In Faecibus, Sole Profundum Variat"

    (Translates as: Always in the sh*t, only the depth varies.)

    The latin is probably wrong, someone made that one up at school 25 years ago.

    Oh, I see. Many thanks

    I have 4 melee sets that give +5% each;
    1 taunt set gives +5%; and
    3 defence sets give +5% each.

    Would I still get only +25% in this case?

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yep, the 5% bonus, a maximum of 5 times.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    So this is where you go when you're not dying in a sewer!
  13. Since last anyone posted here, the Cold Front Sunday TF run has managed a Posi (which I missed due to logging on at 7.10pm) and a Sewer Trial/TF with 4 mins to spare.
  14. Congratulations to the brave heroes of Defiant!

    Is there any reason why we need to enter Ouroboros at the exit portal?

    Would the game support several arrival points around the pool, similar to how hospitals have several resurrection bays? Could keep the exit portal pretty free then...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    See? That's the kind of sensible thinking that'll get you absolutely nowhere!
  16. Alphabetically but with Heroes, then Villains, I believe?
  17. Same here, stops at RP section, stops after French section, no German section at all.
  18. I just checked, £5.99 for me. So it looks like.....Standoff is right?

    Dreaming of CoX

    My title on another CoH forum is "Steel Canyon Daydreamer" because that was my only contact with the game for a while when I moved house.

    My total sub comes to about £240, give or take. £260 for buying the GvE pack, and £265.99 with my recently bought Cyborg Pack.

    So in total = £265.99.

    Of course, this is very low compared to some of the others...I didn't include new computers/updates in that, btw. But if you insist, I got a new comp at about £310 last year.

    So REAL TOTAL = £375.99

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Ummm, £265.99 + £310 =/= £375.99.
  21. Standoff bullied me until I gave in and joined.
  22. We were, as I believe the phrase goes, teh Awesome.

    Scary every time someone plummeted to 1 hp, Teamspeak was full of screams to whoever took the hit. It would have been bad enough seeing your life drop without 5 or 6 people shouting "CORTEN!!", for example.

    Halfway through, and I was wishing someone would die, so I could relax.
