I've been here as long as any of you whether I've been posting or not and my opinions and concerns are as valid as anyone here's. If you wish to impress someone with your wit go play with your peers and go mock someone else kid. Oh yeah, save the get off my lawn comments too.

    This game is basically my hobby and it upsets me when I can't play. I'm well aware of the maintenence schedule and all of the stated caveats about downtime. It doesn't lessen the impact it has on me and if I wish to vent about it I will.

    Its just that your OP didnt really say much except you thought they had learnt from this?

    Everybody is of course allowed to moan [i've done my fair share on these boards ] but [myself personally] dont see a problem with the servers being down for a patch since they've now gotten back into the normal stream of thoughts of once a week. The announcement WAS short notice yes, however for a patch its ok [by me as long as its a big patch ].

    Edit: Also you cant really say that the posts of people you think of as children matter little to you then the next part saying your post is as valid as everybody else, kinda negates the point

    The actual announcement says live server publish so would say 99.9% chance of it being so

    Any chance?

    Just to add that the i21.5 patch notes are here

    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=275742

    There are NO signs of Titan Weapons on these notes when i21.5 started on the VIP beta, so my guess is that if it is i21.5 then there wont be titan weapons

    Ok now i dont know nothing about anything tech related, but surely a dog pet doesnt warrant 6 hour downtime

    Any chance?

    It best be a huge update for the 6 hour downtime at short notice

    Conspiracy theorist point to this picture that the shivans were here long before their invasion on Galaxy, Longbow however have claimed these rumours to be untrue.

I had a friend who was playing this longer and had been there (but not in a while) complain they couldn't remember it, so how would someone new know it?

    Sometimes it pays to read the mission info and clues

    Having some of those 'new' items merely be 'you can purchase a pre-existing in-game temp power' is underwhelming, but understandable.

    Apart from the survival kit, there has been something new in the store every week.

    Which is kind of my point, they've released all that stuff in 9 weeks time while just coming off i21 which in itself had a huge amount of content/updates.
  13. So am i the only one who thinks SOMEBODY will sacrifice themselves to bring her back? Surely you all noticed her spirit above her when the spell happened right?

    While last week's offer was, imo overpriced since it was a single-toon pack, I thought it was appropriately themed. I didn't have interest in buying it, but I didn't think it was a bad offer. I still haven't bought the Halloween pack (can't decide if I just want Bats aura or the whole shebang), or the Circle of Thorns costume pack. Or many other things that were featured on the market.

    Can i get that recipe your using because you just made sense! [sorry, bad i know ]
  16. So let me get this right, you'ld all want them to do [for example] a monthly release onto the store than have the SAME items released more regularly?

    Of course some weeks [like last week] will seem a bit "meh" and some of you are again going "meh" at this weeks, but i heard a lot of people ingame really liking the aura and even heard a few people thinking of buying mako's bite. Personally i like these small releases every week, some weeks i wont purchase anything while other weeks i'll purchase the lot. Know why i aint complaining? Because they are releasing content/items/costumes/auras at a much higher rate than ever before.

    Ah i remember the days of having to go 6 months before issues before anything came out that was new to play with. Plus we're still getting i21.5/i22 worked on Part of my honestly thinks some of you are expecting something groundbreaking and newsworthy every single week, just chill out

    The firemans hat so many people also went "meh" at? Yeah i have a friend who went nuts in joy over it because in his words "omg i can be fireman sam finally!"

    COH needs to step up its game? Isnt COH the benchmark for which all superhero MMOs look at? Im pretty certain CoH is THE superhero MMO
  19. I aint complaining that i didnt win a contest or something like that, that was just the actual place which shook me up a bit.

    What happened was that i asked everybody who was standing around Atlas whether or not they thought my costume was good and the general thought was "could be a lot better". Which then got me talking to my friend and spending almost an hour tweaking colours and possibly adding a third colour and changing the shoulder pads and things like that to see what exactly was missing.

    I will be keeping that costume while i make the other costume that was suggested, simply because i cant help but feel that all is missing is one small bit
  20. Thanks Bathory Some of those things i admit i didnt know but has got me thinking of a new costume completely, his final costume as you say

    Edit: Judging by your screenshots, i'ld say a mixture of the second and third pictures would be best suited for my character.

    Rashnu? Does that stands for a Hindi name?

    Was looking through names of angels and the following just stood out to me.


    Rashnu
    Angel of Judgment
    According to the ancient Persian religion, Rashnu is the angel who stands at the bridge to heaven and passes judgment on those who may pass.

    Can see where your going with the costume idea though, was thinking somewhere along those lines originally. Can see what you mean about it maybe being seen as too average/common with the parts i used.
  22. Ok so last night in atlas a few of us were judging all of our costumes, a certain costume of mine which i was VERY happy with didnt win any of the votes for first place So me and a friend of mine tried to edit it slightly to try and make it better but both of us couldnt put our finger on what was exactly missing.
    This is where you come in! Could you please help me edit my costume slightly so it looks better? Screenies are below and also the character is called Rashnu Damz, Street Justice/Energy Aura scrapper.







    I know the pictures arent of high quality but hey thats what i play at Thanks in advance for any help that comes forward!
  23. In the heros epic arc we learn that Cole is able to use the power of the well to bind and trap incarnates to the point that they are helpless.
    He was able to not only control the well, but turn it into a physical form to hold Statesman in place in the caves. So we to assume that the Well does indeed have the ability to transform its power into physical forms too? Not just objects that would unlock the power?

    [Also just want to say i did love that arc about the heros epic! Loved the clockwork statesman!]
  24. Sometimes in the game you faced with an enemy that is sometimes too strong for you to face. For example look at the following npc hero standing around atlas waiting for the call to strike against his mortal enemies . . . the hellions.



    Meet Super Unknown! The npc hero in atlas! Now what happens if you try and defeat the hellion thats behind him you say?



    Well what else but try and run away as fast as possible!! Its little additions like these that makes me laugh and love this game
