Quote:"Attention. Attention. May I have the board's attention? This week's mission will be When Willie Comes Marching Home. Uh... The biggest parade of laughs of Issue 9. All the love, laughs and escapades of the Willies who came marching home. This mission stars Clockwork, The Council, and fifteen Lost."
I am officially confused -
I'ld leave in an instant without a seconds thought if i lost my account/characters. 54 months worth of working on my characters, dont fancy building them up from scratch again, no matter how much i love the game.

Quote:If I hear this tired old chestnut again...well, i won't be sirprised.
All women drivers are crap too.
And all irishmen are idiots.
In fact, all cliches are completely true in every single case they refer to.
I've been on the Freedom server for 63 months, done plenty of RPing, plenty of great PuGs, met and played with plenty of normal, rational, intelligent, mature non-farming, non-PLing human beings. Freedom has the highest population, so yes it's got the most dickheads, quite possibly, but it's easy to spot and avoid them if you aren't a total mong, and it's also got loads and loads of good people on it too.

Very defensive of your area arent you . . . . . . . i like thatGood quality to have imo!
*adds MrCaptainMan to the list of people i want to team with if a server list merge ever happens*
Edit: You forgot english = british and welsh = sheep -
Theres a base raid section there
Theres a section purely for villains/heroes there -
Off the top of my head here are the lists from down the years that i can remember.
- Only since i14 have we been involved in closed betas [excluding city of villains]
- While it shouldnt be seen as expected, more of a luxury, on the old forums we had next to zero red name postings. At the most it was 1/2 a year.
- Good v Evil boxset was the last time there was any sort of box life on the shelves to try and increase the EUs playerbase numbers, which as a result has seen EU players either leave the game or start up a NA account.
- While this obviously affects everyone in our timezones it was still a slap in the face. We were actually told on the forums that the AE and WW were not going to go down outside of normal maintennance [sp?]. Ended up going down smack in the middle of the day on an almost daily basis, this was right after i14 was released. The main focus of the new release was unavailable to us at a time when a lot of players log in.
- Only these last few months have we been having dev/CC competitions in our actual servers. Before all we had was to look over at the NA's in envy.
- When the brighton offices were closed down and a lot of the EU staff got laid off, the forums were literally in a frenzy for about 4 days i think with almost everybody under the impression that the EU servers were being closed. Took that long for somebody to come to the forums to ease our fears. That post basically consist of "dw your servers are fine, more news soon". While it did turn out to be nothing major to affect the playerbase, the harm done from that alone was big. The announcement to say we're ok should have been done way before.
- If a character gets deleted on the EU servers they can not be restored. When a character gets deleted on the NA servers they got restored. Some players actually tested this out.
- Its well known that people who play on the EU servers get more lag compared to the NA. Now dont get me wrong i dont mean as a person, i mean like if i log on to the EU servers i know i'll get lag at some point. If i log on to the NA servers, i get a whole lot less lag. Everybody i know who has experienced both has said the same.
- Official competitions. Think we started to get EU related competitions just over a year ago. Before that we could enter, get recognition on the website for it but couldnt get the prizes.
- EU website/updater got updated a whole lot less than the NA official home website. There was a thread recently in this section about how our updater was about a month or so behind i think?

Imagine how empty our servers would be if they did merge lists
I know i for one would jump to a much busier server

Quote:There is also a section of the gaming market who reads the online gaming press. It's not just getting new players by having some bloke sit down and google 'any new games out today?' Massively.com and gamespot and what have you are all sources of new players. I live in Poland, I'd expect to see The Krankies engaged in a live sex show with Simon McCorkindale, Benny from Crossroads and Shep, reanimated, broadcast live from the Blue peter studios with narration by the Queen before I'd see CoH in any shops here, but the internet's NOT a big place to search. If the government of Britain banned brick and mortar gaming shops tomorrow, the country wouldn't be full of gamers all forlornly knock-knocking on their monitors hoping that a selection of latest games would spontaneously parade across their field of vision like something out og the generation game, they'd do the online equivalent of 'having a look in a shop to see what's there' - they'd google 'latest PC games reviews', for example.
It's not brain surgery.
Eco.
In the latest article in the UK PC gamer magazine which has a section on CoH it describes the US servers [re: number of servers/population/available slots etc] instead of the EU ones. Dont know about anybody else here but i would like an article thats published in the EU about the EU side of things, not the NA ones
Havent read any of the other magazines/online reviews of the upcoming i17/GR so could be an isolated incident, but think we all know it isnt -

So nice to know you separate our part of the world into two sections, England and the rest of the EU.
AS a Welshman who's heartily sick of Americans, Englishmen and many Europeans using 'England' as a synonym for 'Britain', I hope your illiterate ranting gets the response it deserves from the Devs: stony silence.

Quote:Let's see just what would it take to put an effective hold on Statesman?
Let's see, so he gets 13 points protection for Unyielding (but he doesn't have that in his profile), Purple Triangles gives him Mag 50 protection (assuming he wasn't experiencing Purple Triangles "Down" period), and gets 21 points protection from unstoppable, though it doesn't seem like he had that on.
So, in the absolute best scenario (which would include him having a power he doesn't have), States has 84 points protection against holds, taking the video at face value, he may have
had only 50, in the worst case scenario only 4 points of mez protection.
So yeah, if he was having a moment like that latter most scenario, he could have been held that easily.
States is a noobToggles on when you enter mission!

Years ago when there was more than a handfull of people who pvp'd over here in the EU, i was able to get that badge on my emp by constantly teaming in sirens call.
I refuse to delete that character because the odds of me actually earning that badge again properly are slim to none -
