I still haven't heard back from anybody with the Intel card whether or not /compatiblecursors 1 fixes the problem in game. Have you tried that yet before going on your personal vendetta? -
Quote:Also as a stalker when i see caltrops i just turn on my jet pack and still as the person.Originally Posted by macskull
Caltrops assumes:
1. All the Stalkers are idiots
2. You're standing in the same spot all the time
Neither of the above will be true in good zone PvP. Why? A Stalker will be able to AS you as you're jumping around (or grounded by something, or mezzed) and since Caltrops covers a very tiny area, that leaves them with a lot of room to move around. If you're standing in the same spot all the time, a nice little spike from some ranged toons should get you moving pretty quick. If not, you're either a complete tard, mezzed, or AFK. -

hahahahaha bb, this actually made me lol. Literally.
I agree with anti though, this should definitely apply to brutes and stalkers too. But in the case of stalkers, it should only apply when they use shark. If they use AS within 1 minute of using shark, they get their chat privileges back. That way, the non-baddos will still be able to talk, like mac suggested. -

We've been monitoring this thread, and have been looking over the Support Tickets submitted to our Tech Support Team.
I've been hesitant to post an update until we:
a) found out how many users were affected,
b) had identified the cause of the problem,
c) had an expectation of when a fix would be delivered to affected customers.
That said, our Tech Support Team has received several reports from Mac users who are using the Intel GMA 950 and Intel GMA X3100 video cards.
- Our Tech Support Team has been holding off on any response to tickets until we could confirm that the cause of the issue had been determined, and we had an idea of how difficult this would be to fix.
- Please note that if you are using an Intel GMA 950 video card, that card is not supported by the City of Heroes Macintosh client.
- This is noted on the City of Heroes Macintosh Edition product page, as well as on the NCsoft Store.
I cannot give an exact timeline or an ETA of when this fix will be patched to the Live servers, but I will post an update (on the CoH Mac forums and on the Training Room forums) of when the fix is ready to be tested on the Training Room (aka Public Test Server).
If you are a Mac user (with an Intel GMA x3100 video card), please file a Support Ticket via this link.
We are monitoring this thread and the Mac forums for Macintosh-specific issues, but the best way for us to determine how many people are affected is for players to submit a Support Ticket. -

You're talking about a bug with an unsupported video card (chip). They don't have to waste time fixing things that generally only break on unsupported hardware/software.
If it gets fixed, it's usually only due to needing to fix it for supported hardware/software.
Complaining about a bug with unsupported hardware/software makes no real sense.
The GMA 900 is the unsupported one. -

I know have disappointed so many users.I guess I am not use to bugs being in games for over the time I paid for.

Well, it may have been over almost a month since you saw it, but it hasn't been that long since they finally got the information they needed to find out that it is only affecting 1 supported video card. Yes, it is affecting another card, but they clearly stated that that card is not supported before they released the Mac version. Ghost Falcon mentioned this weekend that he was very specific in the wording before it was ever posted because he wanted to avoid people complaining about it later. It apparently didn't help, or at least not to the degree it should have.
During a panel at the Con about bugs, this bug came up as a reference. The actual number of support tickets filed was extremely low. I was rather surprised at how low it was, but I don't remember the number. Also, it took some time for them to get enough information from the players to narrow it down to that one Intel card, sometimes because people were very slow in responding to the requests for information.
Then they had to figure out if it was a problem for Apple, Intel, Cedega (or whoever handles the wrapper) or them (Paragon Studios) to handle and then wait for a fix to be delivered and get an estimated time on that part. They didn't want to post about it until they had that answer since that would have been frustrating for them and the players both to be hanging with a "we know about it but don't know when it will be fixed" answer. Apparently they have a timeframe for the fix now, which will mean they'll have to get a new build ready once it arrives, push it to Test and get people to actually test it, then roll it up for a push to live. But, when you are waiting for a fix from someone that isn't under your control, it's rather difficult to give an exact date for a fix to be ready.
That's not a short process, especially when players don't help by filing support tickets or providing the information they asked for and needed in order to identify exactly where the problem was. -
So the Question is who would be that unlucky person, after you pressed the red button on the box?

O ps this bug only affects macs. And its really annoying.

Don't forget to thank them for not fixing a major bug that has been know to them for almost over a month.

I have been have problems clicking the lvl up button after talking to the trainer. Any one have any tips on how to do that because its taking longer to click it then it is to get the lvl.

I been wanting to make a mm for some time now and i was thinking about maybe making a bot/dark or bot/term but am unsure which one would be the best to solo av with also i might want to try to pvp on this mm as well.

Are there any sg on champion that do a lot of pvp still?

Lets all move to champion.
Yea yea I know be careful what you wish for. But TBH, i need more pvp action and yes I think wrecking noobs (especially from freedom) is fun. Don't judge me. -
Quote:I though bots were the best.Originally Posted by Supermax
I think either thugs, necro, or ninjas. Thugs probably the best overall.

Quote:Do you think they will give mac users free time if it dose take over a month. I know it doesn't render game unplayable but its more annoying to try to play right now then fun I don't like spending 30mins of a quest just trying to click on the npc that gives it. And PVP isn't even close to possible with this glitch. All i hope is that they fix it really soon.Originally Posted by NeoSporin
It's not like there is a policy or formula on the length of time it takes to fix a mac or even a PC issue. If they take 3 months to fix this particular issue one cannot reasonably conclude it takes the dev's 3 months to fix all mac issues.
Each issue is different and there are many factors as to how long it takes to fix them. Some issues are easy to fix, some issues are diffucult, and some are extremely complicated and take years.
Like the ATI mouse cursor issue when managing enhancements on PCs. This bug may not necessarily show up on all ATI cards, but for many of us it does. (This is the bug where when you are in the enhancement management screen and you move yer cursor down to your enhancements inventory your cursor suddenly shifts and the actual cursor focus is about an inch and a half down and to the left of where the cursor appears. )That one is years old and it would seem is considerably elusive in its remedy. Yet, some issues are fixed within weeks.
(Keep in mind the ATI mouse cursor issue does not render the game unplayable, so you can relax and not go nuclear in fear that the mac cursor issue will go years un-resolved. I'm sure the dev's would recode from the ground up the mac mouse interface before they let the game go unplayable for years.) -
Quote:I think a better name for what you guys are calling honor is SPORTSMANSHIP. If you loss don't go crying about it making up excuses why you lost. Instead talk to the person that just beat you and try to find out were you can improve from them. And if you win don't go being a little kid calling that person a noob and telling them that suck. Instead show some class try to help them out but don't try to force any thing down their throats back off if they don't want it.Originally Posted by CriticalKat
Having honor or integrity in pvp isn't about how you fight or what you use to fight. Its about your attitude and how you impact the people you fight with and against. Smack talking or being just nasty for no reason is fighting without honor. Using inspirations is just fighting the way the game intends you to fight, thats why they dont disappear or fade out from your trays when you enter the zone. -
O yeah i forgot to say we have reached max before several time to the point were i was kicking my own alts to make room for new people.

Quote:Lol thats not true about the way elf runs his sg. I took a break with out really telling any one and when i came back 2 months later i was still in it. So i don't know what you talking about.Originally Posted by Peterbilt
Don't go to PON. They'll kick you if you're not active and don't play in SG mode. (And don't say you don't Elf, my friend just was kicked, no note, no nothing, because he was inactive for 2 weeks. He actually wanted to transfer the character to my SG earlier but I told him to stay in PON because I heard it was a good group.)
If you want and SG to park a character and use teleporters you are welcome in mine. Absolutely no one kicked until we reach capacity (which we won't hit for another 120 or so members.)
I play after 9 PST and you are always welcome to hit me up. I'd be happy to join ya.
As far as Where is Everyone? Stealing your Pants.

Here is a nice article about i mentality you should have if you want to be good at pvp. I know some of the people who posted here should really read it.

Since i don't have any high level Blasters, Stalkers, Dominators or Corruptors, what would you say are the best AT's and powersets to bring for PvP in RV? (Excluding those 4 AT's of course.)
Generally speaking, if i do show up in RV, find no teams and get swarmed when i venture out of the base i don't stay very long. Saying "Well at least i got one of them down to 50% health before they got me" just isn't something i find very rewarding...
i don't have any actual PvP builds set up, but i can always throw something together. IIRC SS and SJ are still considered pretty much essential, and otherwise i guess i would focus on attacks that have the highest PvP damage rating.
(i'm not trying to denigrate your proposal, but i would like some suggestions for high level zone PvP. The last several times i was in RV i wasn't using anything intended as a PvP build, and noticed that most of my PvE combat-related set bonuses appeared completely useless in PvP.)
