    Not really. Then everyone who dislikes ALL player-cast buffs (Speed Boost, ice/fire shields, FF bubbles, etc) will start clamoring to have options to decline them added.

    What we really need is a prompt/auto-accept/auto-decline option for all player-cast buffs. Which seems like it should be doable. And it should default to 'auto-accept' the way team teleport currently does.
  2. Oh, so many memories...

    The costume creator in general, it's what hooked me on the game and part of what keeps me here. I played with paper dolls as a little girl, and this game lets me make superheroine paper dolls and then I get to punch things in the face with them!

    The first time I ran the Ernesto Hess TF, going inside the volcano and seeing the giant robot. It's still one of my favorite TFs, just because it was so different than anything else I'd done in the game.

    Dinging my first 50 with Cobalt Freckles, my illusion/empathy controller. Related: leveling up my first EAT, my Peacebringer. And dinging 50 with her.

    HeroCon, especially last year, playing Apples to Apples with a bunch of players, plus Dark Watcher and Synapse!

    Almost forgot -- the first time I did a Mayhem mission with my thugs/dark mastermind. Now that's destruction! It was glorious...

    Happy anniversary, CoH...may there be many many more!
  3. For what it's worth, my very first 50 ever was an illusion/empathy controller. I loved the jack-of-all-trades feeling with her. You need buffs? Distractions? Locking down the enemy? Pseudo-tanking? Gotcha covered!

    ??? am i missing something? i even tried choosing all the different origins but still doesn't matter.
    Have you pre-purchased Going Rogue? If not, it won't be available until you either pre-purchase, or until Going Rogue launches and you purchase it. Either way, you won't be able to use Demon Summoning unless you have purchased Going Rogue.

    Oh, the best part is I had just unlocked the front door and had my purse, coat, various books and things all stacked up in my arms, and was very confused! "Wha...what did I do? I just got home!!"

    So...yeah, if any of you were around Seamus McSpikerton in Talos and were wondering why he just disappeared all of a sudden, that was him.
  6. That's awesome:

    Wish I could have participated, but the power went out *seconds* before I got home from work. I know this because my husband ran up to me as I opened the door and was screaming "NOOOOO!". I guess he had been playing since 4...

    Stupid SMUD. Stupid wind.
  8. Nvidia 9600 GT here -- same problem.

    Mod08, do you know of any Nvidia fixes?
  9. I had a DS/thermal on test and it was fun, but a little too buffbotty for me. DS/storm...ooh, now that has possibilities!

    Now to come up with a good concept/name...
  10. Sigh...I won't be able to come after all. I had thought that dress rehearsal on Saturday was in the morning, but it's apparently all afternoon and evening. Grrrr.
  11. Controllers blueside, Masterminds redside. Apparently I have a thing for /kin and /dark also.

    Demon keybind?

    The minion pets are demonlings, lieut pets are demons, and the boss pet is demon prince.

    The short names I'm using for the binds are 'ling', 'mons', and 'prin' and they work for the numpad binds that are out there.

    a little story

    Heh...it was BABs, unless the coincidence engine is working overtime.

    I don't get it. People in this thread are speculating on when the probable release date of issue 17 will be, based on the fact that we have been told it will be in April. Which, honestly, is more than we ever get.

    I don't see anyone screaming about not having it yet or asking for a "firm" release date, just people excited and speculating (as people do). Calm down, take a breath, enjoy the sunshine....if you are someplace that is lucky enough to have it today.

    Veteran Rewards

    Another question for you: why do you think they're called "Veteran" rewards? They exist solely to reward those people who have been playing the game for an extended period of time. It's a thank-you and an incentive for players to keep their subscription active.

    Making them "purchasable" cheapens them considerably and removes the reason they were put into the game in the first place.

    Gman was asking when we think it will go live. My money's on the 27th. It's a Tuesday, and it coincides nicely with the anniversary.

  22. Not gonna lie, I totally thought this was going to be a snarky parody thread. Welcome Black Pebble, hope you've girded (girt?) your loins for this!

    I want to second the motion to put more ads in comic books, print ads (gamer magazines and such), and yes, even the in-game advertising.
  23. I'll come! I don't have a rad but I'll try to get one up by then or I can be fallout bait if that doesn't happen! Or I can bring my widow or brute or whoever else is needed for support/backup.

    I don't know what happened but it was so weird.
    !!! Oh my, if that's the desired result that will be AWESOME.

    *looks at clock*

    *taps foot impatiently*

    Ugh, an hour and a half until I can go home and test!
