INSANITY!

If people did that they'd be able to play right away and they'd have no excuse to come on the forums and throw hissy-fits about not being able to log onto Fre-<cough> their preferred server of choice.

New players are forced to make their first character in Praetoria where everyone is. Vet players already know that almost everyone is going to be in Praetoria until the new wears off.

Your attempt to "Doom!" has failed.

That may indeed affect whether or not the free transfers start tomorrow, but the free ones haven't started yet.

In order to get a free rename token first pick a destination server and check if the name is available on it. If it isn't simply transfer the character to that server and claim the token.

If the name is not being used create a scrub character to hold the name and then transfer the character you want to rename to that server and claim your token.

Once you have your rename token you can transfer the character back to it's original server.

If for whatever reason you don't want to do this then cough up the $10. bucks.

They are called super GROUPS for a reason. It would be nice if we could invite our own offline characters. If your too paranoid to trust someone to invite one of your alts to the SG then maybe Massively Multiplayer Online Games aren't your cup of tea.


You can buy an unopened copy of CoH/CoV from Amazon for just $5 dollars. Hardly an expense.

That's because they don't start until tomorrow.

I don't think the free transfers started yet. That's tomorrow if I'm not mistaken.

It's going to be like that as long as people insist that they can only enjoy the game on the most populated server and refuse to play anywhere else.

We have 11 servers (NA) with identical content. If people choose to play in a sardine can then they have to suck it up and deal with the consequences.

I'm not unsympathetic either as I was in the OP's situation 2 years ago, but I agree with you the blame is in the hardware on the OP's end.

YES!

This.

The OP is responsible for his crappy computer not the devs.

Looks more to me like proof that Freedom is overpopulated and should have it's population split up. Maybe they could move Freedom players to the French server.

So transfer to your hearts content.

While I don't doubt that they use pre-orders to predict the popularity of upcoming product releases, I have reservations that they count the money before the transactions are completed. To me that seems like very foolish behavior.

I went that route with a Stage Magician concept. Fire/Psi seemed to fit that concept nicely.

I'd still prefer Carp Melee.

Yeah I can see how one can easily come to that conclusion, but I was also drawing on some of the OP's responses I've seen in older doom threads.

Those weren't pre-orders they were pre-purchase. Money actually exchanged hands and goods/services were exchanged.

If your Virtual Lad, who's running AE Monkey? I thought that was you.

It's anemic in the sense that a huge portion of the playerbase qualified to be invited to the closed beta testing of GR, and once invited, we flocked to the test server to try out the new stuff as soon as possible. As a result we weren't on the live servers which gave the illusion that the population had dropped significantly.
