I keep hearing the date of Nov 30th to the be last day the game will be live. Where is this stated at in an official announcement or by a Dev/Red Name?

Again...I am working at Cryptic as we speak, and I have not heard the slightest peep about this. To be honest, little is said about CoH these days other than to marvel over some new piece of tech and comment 'Didn't we have this in the CoH engine like 8 years ago?'
It would be very unfair to go on some sort of anti-Cryptic or anti-Champions Online campaign based on unsubstantiated rumors. NCSoft chose to end this game we all love, shutter Paragon Studios, and release their dedicated team of talented people into the wild. I have no idea why, but as far as I know it has nothing to do with Cryptic/Perfect World. -
I have tried it slotted on a few powers, and it shows up in damage log, but never affect the target. Tried on Combustion, Fire Sword and few others, I believe all had damage ticks
-
The only problem I found with them taunting me was sometimes it was hard to tell which one was taunting me, so I just used AOE attacks when possible to attack without direction. It would be helpful when being taunted to ALWAYS switch your active target atleast.

DragonSire I'm not trying to be the grammar police but you're talking about Tokens not Points.
And yes it is very confusing.
I'm eagerly awaiting the next response to Caulderone's support ticket. -
I'll just say no.
(If I typed a long explanation, and rant as to how I feel towards a 600 PP costume, Id be here all day cursing like a pirate) -
Okay so I log in tonight, and have earned 2 "Tokens" (Corrected lol) ? Now I did have a year coming up on 23rd, except...this isn't the 23rd. Also 1 was auto slotted onto the first slot of a tier, which i think is rather annoying.
Also I didn't get the year badge?
Very confusing... -
Quote:This is what I am hoping. In my case it would mean a yearly (2 token). I'm sure I will get 1 for the year, 1 for the sub renew..but since that applies for the 30 days following, not the 90 behind, I should still be entitles to the extra token. Since it is only a matter of a couple days in my case.Originally Posted by Dark Sweater
I think those won't be a problem, because year counting will continue where it left off.
My guess is that we'll get a token for a partial month (and whatever full months you have left). I think this was alluded to in an answer on a previous Freedom Friday when it was said that the $2 account would have 3 tokens: one free, one for the box and one for the month. That would only work if the 3rd token is awarded when Freedom launches. In that case someone with 2 days left would still get a token, but it will be for their first month on Freedom instead of for the 3 months.
It would still be nice to get official confirmation on this. -

I understand how the rewards work for VIP, the badges all that. That's not my question. Since 3 month awards are in fact being still awarded presumably right up until Sep 12th. And those who get the badge get the extra TOKEN. What happens to those who will be awarded a 3 month badge right around or even on Sept 13th. There 3 months don't count?Quote:Originally Posted by Necrotech_Master
once i21 is live the old vet reward system will be discontinued, so badges will not be awarded like they have been instead they will be earned through the new paragon rewards system, each time you get a token and claim something you get a related badge and a reward
all of the old vet badges graphics have been changed to remove the numbering system and just have a star since they wont be earned at any specific time come i21
Or does it still get awarded? (Either early or on Normal Date)
I can't see the DEVS saying too bad, reward was meant to be issued until the 14th suck it up...but until I see it in print that's my fear. -
Quote:You might be correct, but if any 3 month badges have been awarded since July then that only leaves people who are expecting them just after Sept 13th. Anyone confirm they have gotten a 3 month badge since july?Originally Posted by PBAtty
Based on everything I've read, I believe that Vet Rewards ended as of July 1st. Since then, if you've stayed subscribed, you get 400 points for every calendar month where you had at least 1 day subscribed. So you've got 400 points for July, August and September each. You don't get 3.5 months worth of points since July 1st. It's 400 points for each calendar month if you've got a sub at any time in the month. I'm sure someone that knows more about this stuff will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that's how it works.
I'm getting this info from a post by a redname back in June. The post is in the forums here: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?p=3707619 -
I haven't seen this answered anywhere, except for people speculating on how this will be/wont be addressed.
For those with rewards coming up after September 13th, does the reward of a Paragon Point still get awarded? Do we get the reward on our sub date? Do we get it if the reward date falls with x # days immediately?
Maybe someone who is in the know (community red names) can clarify this as I see this question being asked in numerous threads. -
Quote:Well speaking for someone who works very long days, early in the morning until evening. And almost every weekend....no pity here. I never see Double XP etc. It doesn't matter what day or hour, someone won't be able to enjoy things. Though 4 days notice, well since they wanted this out on Sept 1, I can see not leaving in longer.Originally Posted by JKPhage
I think it would be extremely UNfair to release in the evening, as I work almost exclusively night shifts, and if it were released in the evening it would be 8 hours before I'd be able to sit down with the game and snag names, and by that point I'm sure most if not all of the names I have my sights set on would be gone. If anything I think it would be fair to release it in the morning so the people who are consistently left out of the special events that are scheduled during evenings (Special dev-participation events like the Kadabra Kill and Sigil events, invasions, meet and greets in pocket D) have something given to them for a change.
Either way I am disappointed that we were only given 4 days notice prior to the headstart as that was nowhere near enough time to request off, but oh well, guess I'll be calling in sick that day because I'm tired of missing special stuff due to not having enough notice by the COH team. This is something that you guys really NEED to look into as it's not fair to those of us who work retail/food service/various other jobs where we're required to work late and provide two weeks notice for time off needed, especially with Freedom upcoming and the userbase expanding exponentially.
Sick day for a game? Really? Wow. I couldn't justify doing that (wish I could lol) -

Quote:Yeah I have a vet reward due on the 23rd (I think) so would like to know also.Originally Posted by Kae-Chan
Quick question: Sept 24th I'm due for my 60th month vet badge, but with this coming out on the 13th I just wanted to know if I'd still get credit for it when that date comes and another reward token plus the 5th year token, or just the one for 5th year? Thanks. =)

I get "The game client was unable to connect to the login server" on both Test and Beta, although I'm able to get into Live.
Surprised they wouldn't tell us....actually I take that back. -

While I can appreciate a decent story as much as the next person, I'd still much rather get an actual release date on i21 than a story to placate everyone.

I'd be happy if just the same portal from pocket d was added to SG bases, though a different look wouldn't hurt.....

You're right. The only new stuff Friday was a title graphic for part two of the "Who Will Die" signature stories and a shot of old west/high tech costume concept art for gunslingers and saloon girls.
Saturday should have some juicy details.
Well today will tell the tale. -

Quote:It has to be intentional. With the amount of posts and threads over the various issues, both at comic con and since open beta (maybe during closed beta?) There not stupid. They clearly see or are told about the posts.They know how upset some players are. They know they are pushing some players away, and they know that the really long term players who will be affected the least will likely stick around.Originally Posted by IanTheM1
I'm not even trying to accuse the devs of intentional ill-will, I'm just saying that they're presenting a questionable image at the moment, and it's largely thanks to a lack of communication on the issue(s).
The ONLY reason not to post, is to avoid influencing the data. What data?
I'm sure they are collection data like :
Category A - % expected to quit
Category B - % expected to go free 2 play
Category C - % expected to purchase items as is
Category D - % expected that will purchase at various % reduction
Yes they did say prices subject to change at comic con, and I believe day 1 open beta...but nothing since. Not with all the threads and discussions. After all they are finding time to post about other things. No excuse other than a lack of respect to fans.
I speak only for myself, but whatever comes out of Freedom. Whether I stick to this game or not. I certainly do not feel like a valued player, just a % to fit into a Category A-D. -
Quote:Easier to just forget the old stuff and move forward....apparently.Originally Posted by Dark Energon
It's been like that for years, the fact that it's still not resolved is either laziness, contentedness, incompetence, ignorance from one or more people or something else.
Fact of the matter is that the one in charge of the game should have stepped up and opened his or her mouth and placed the right people on this too fix.
In all sports the players are the ones on the field making the mistakes, but the coach is always the one blamed. He is supposed to make sure that everyone knows what to do, and work as a team. Same here, the person highest in the chain of command should have made sure that within a certain amount of time this would be fixed.
But hey, it's not like it's a Signature Arc, right? -
I don't see the point of trainers being able to change costume. ICON was added to Atlas so easy accessible.
But whatever, some will always just want the easiest possible method to do everything. Frankly I would like to see more interaction with buildings and locations.
