Position's in the US are hardly surprising.

Post-ED, I didn't think they could. Could be mistaken though, it's happened occasionally

[/ QUOTE ]
They could, but it took longer.

Isn't Energy Drain auto-hit?

I'm not so sure, it's been years since I respec'd it out for being fundamentally useless for me.

<removed by mod>, I'm all for faster Hover. My Fire/Rad controller may actually get some playtime!

I think it's less making the post redundant and more moving it to the US for GR/Avatea's position. Move or take voluntary redundancy.

As for the "server health" issue, it's not the servers, it's the ludicrously poor routing between the data centre and us.

Aion however should quite easily be a massive hit in Asia, even without a strong Euro/US playerbase it should pull enough in to be worth it. I'm fairly certain that it'll get a good enough following this hemisphere anyway as have other Asian MMO's.

TR wanted to appeal to the FPS crowd and the MMO crowd. It didn't have nearly as much depth/immersion for the latter, and the gameplay wasn't anywhere near what the former were after. Which is a shame, TR was a fun game - there just wasn't enough there for most people.

I dont see why it is suddenly becoming unbearable.

It's clear that one of the internet nodes in Germany has started malfunctioning badly in recient days.

Of course, it's not a matter completly out of NCSoft's control: at least in the long term, they could change th physical location of the servers.

Problem is they'll be tied in to a contract and unless the problems are a breach of the SLA guaranteed by the datacenter (IE; it's their fault), there's really no easy way to get out of it to move where everything's based.

SG base storage can handle insps/IO's (forget recipes, craft on Alt A and deposit, pick up on Alt B).

I would like a global Inf wallet for my account though. That'd make things way, way handier. Or - even better, keeping with the whole "It's Influence not Money" theme:

SG Influence. If my characters are worth x hundreds of millions of 'Influence' then the SG's they're associated with must also be of reasonable influence in the world.

Edit: WoW hate itt.

SSTF1 yields 111 but takes too long - typically 5-8 hours.

[/ QUOTE ]
It's a pain in the rear and monotonous to do, but you wouldn't clock anywhere near 8 hours with a good team.

It's still the best for merits if you can get it down.

I used to dislike the slotting levels (my very first character, I deleted because I was so disappointed at level 34 to not get a new power).

[/ QUOTE ]
Ahahahahahahaha, Aardy, what the hell.

But yeah - no thanks. I love getting slots, it's a rarity I look at a character and go "Man you know what I need less of at this level? Slots.".

It's wise to restrain Gangrel as a general rule, really. Y'know, just in case.

I wouldn't say Blasters are exactly "hyper squishy" these days, being not far behind in HP terms as Scrappers.

You've just got to learn how to kill everything before they kill you!

Well, this must surely be the fastest growing one then

Not by a long shot.

Your join date explains your ignorance.

You can only have 5x of the same Bonus, from any set.

For instance you can slot 3 of Set A giving 10% regen and 2 of Set B giving 10% regen. Slotting a third Set B won't count for any regen bonus.

Obviously a sign the game's dead.

I'm not exactly worried that support for EU COH will suddenly dissapear with no warning.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm not worried either that support will suddenly disappear for EU.COH - I AM worried that the support staff left will be stretched beyond what is normally deemed an exceptable level of service. I've had an account problem that took a couple of days to resolve properly before!... and that was before both sets of EU.staff cuts down at Brighton.
The alternative will be U.S support handles more of our account problems - I don't fancy how long any Account or In-game help will take if we are in different time zones.

I'd rather be offered a transfer thankyou.

[/ QUOTE ]
The flaw there is that, with a transfer, you'll still be in a different time zone to the US support staff.

Also I'm pretty sure no actual game support staff were made redundant in the last round of cuts.

Considering people were offered the same/similar role in the US I'm not exactly worried that support for EU COH will suddenly dissapear with no warning.

Infact I'm pretty sure we've already got a few stateside GM's handling queries.

Apparently due to some bug enzymes works in defence buffs and will enhance it more than cytos.

[/ QUOTE ]

I believe the Devs said that was WAI due to the way the buffs/debuffs are coded a couple of years ago - either that or it was too hard to fix.

[/ QUOTE ]
Second option.

They said it's how it's coded but it's not the way they want it to work - and advised against slotting any enhancement that affects a power in a way it shouldn't because it could change without notice.

So far, in terms of people directly involved with City of Heroes that are confirmed to have "possible redundancies" are... oh hey - Ghost Raptor. I can see that having a massive impact on the day to day running of the servers.

Wait.

He's already stated GM's etc are staying.

That's unlikely to happen to us I think. For a start there's a lot more of us, and we've been going a lot longer.

See it sounds like a lot when you say it like that, but what percentage of the playerbase post on/use the forums?

[ QUOTE ]
this whole issue is a pain worrying that no red names have posted anything at all,EU ones to [censored] and US don,t care.

[/ QUOTE ]
You mean apart from the three or four posts from GhostRaptor today?
