play money rains down from the sky in this game- all anyone needs to do to become filthy, stinking outrageously disgustingly rich is hold out their hands to collect some of the downpour...



...I kinda like the current price madness- it makes the stuff you want worth going after again, instead of casually picking stuff up at BUY IT NAO prices just because you can.

For a minute there, I thought you were talking about Monopoly... which prompts me to ask:

What's the player's ultimate goal in City of Heroes nowadays: to make money or play a superhero/villain?

[/ QUOTE ]

why can't i, as a super villian, want to be known AND rich? i have my 50 stalker and love to see how much money i can make as well as go out and beat the crap outa people. i recently started some pvp'n, and it's kinda fun, but i still want boat loads of "cash".

Oh damn, I cut myself really bad there. I'd better apply a tourniquet.
Hmm... I wonder how much longer I can keep playing before I have to get to the hospital... I'd better ask.

the correct response is "try bud dry"

does anybody out there know how long you can keep a turniquet on before damage occurs?

i would like to say thank you to the dev team. this is the only game that i have played that has kept me interested for more than a couple of months.

as far as i am concerned this game has continuously given me more and more. i have yet to reach the moment when i have said "is that it?"

qr

just like to add my, do NOT start spending more money on freedom, voice. they already give you an incentive to use other servers, you won't have to deal with greyed out "momemts".

really, it doesn't take that long to get in to freedom, even when it greys out. like many hvae said, you just have to go back and forth until you can get in. hell, i remember starting several characters because one or another server in wow was full.

get a head start on another server and get a new character going now. by the time 2xp wknd gets here, you can already have your sg and base established . when your wife joins, you can sk her and invite her to your sg.

boom, there you go. glad we could help.

Um...swapping carrots, and offering an alternate carrot are the same thing.

[/ QUOTE ]
No. No they are not. Not even close.

If I was to tell you that I was swapping your current car with a beat up old jalopy, is that the same as giving you the jalopy, in addition to your current car? No, it's not. In one, I'm taking your current car, and in the other, I'm not.

[/ QUOTE ]
Well, I am, in fact, NOT taking your carrot. I'm merely suggesting we replace it. If the developers initiated this, they'd be the one taking your carrot.

But, to continue your analogy, I'm suggesting that players be given the opportunity to put their cars into a museum, where they'll be revered and accessible to anyone, but where they'll be unable to be driven again.

I'm not giving forcing anyone to do this, but I am attempting to figure out what sort of compensation would be enough to encourage you to do this.

none. i love my 50. i have put as much time into him at 50 as i have getting him there. erase yours all you want, leave mine alone.

My brother is having a hard time retrieving his password to his ncsoft account. He enters what he thinks was his username, submits the form, then enters his bday and the verification code, submits THAT form, and an error is returned saying:

"Error retrieving password information. Please try again later or contact Support. There was a problem resetting your password. You may need to contact Support."

He has contacted customer service but they have not responded in 3 days. What should he do? Please help.

[/ QUOTE ]

just wait and call them. i have had to reset my pasword at least half a dozen times (i have a horrible memory, went and got me a fingerprint scanner) and their customer service have been great about helping me.

That picture on the bio is about four years old and the virtueverse page has been up for a long time. I haven't done anything with page for awhile except put in certain relevent events in his life. The character changed to having a cape and some other minor changes so he would not be exact. The character was INFLUENCED BY and NOT Mar-vell

As for the biography itself is original. Marvel was never a prince from an evil empire run by his family. He was not distilled down to component energy to be a battery for a starship after inciting an intergalactic rebellion. He never met a girl in Ireland and plucked the idea on how Earthlings looked from her mind. He never went on the run when his family sent people to retrieve him, helped a media mogul as a bodyguard, became a member of the LoT or the PK:HB, inherited a large fortune from a late employer. And lastly he did not have a wife named Liberty Girl in which they held a large wedding about four years ago on the Virtue server attended by a large amount of people.

And I'll not be publishing any letters. All letters are between myself and the GM's so do not expect to see any here. As it is the character was erased last night after I went offline. So I hope the troll who generic'd me is happy, they won.

I do not know what I did to you to make you so angry to the point of wanting me removed permanently. I have been with this game for technically six years if you count the old pre-beta boards. My character has been around for that long too. He had even won in game costume contests with GM's standing right there.

The basic nature of the costume should be looked at since it is a relatively standard super hero suit. Unless its now a crime to make costumes with underwear on the outside and tights for male characters. Red and blue combinations are a common color scheme on a lot of characters.

My thanks everyone who turned out in support last night in Atlas.

[/ QUOTE ]

so, reading this thread i see that a group named Fawcet Comics has at least a similar character. this is from your bio

"Nexus is living off the money given to him by his late employer Mr. Fawcette and Alexa travels the world as a high class fashion model. "

maybe the costume being so close, the "influenced by" and then a reference to fawcet was too much.

just a thought

So I decided I want to make lots of money. I've read flipping salvage helps out in the start and I had about 30 million left over on my TF toon. So I picked about 2 pieces of rare, looked at the most recent transactions, and bought 10 of each, for what I thought was reasonable then placed them back on for what I saw was the highest going rate. So then I come back and...the last few transactions were selling less than what I paid!!!!!!! Damn fickle market!

Should I stick it out or cut my loses and repost? (its been 3 days) On a stack of 10, what would be a reasonable amount of profit per piece? Is it a slow steady increase that slowly builds up?

Also, I put some Pounding Slugfests up there as well, crafted and no ones buying! Also posted for the going rate. (so go buy them!)

Bonus question: Im going to buy a Numina Unique with Merits and post it to get myself some more starting money, what level would fetch the highest price? (Im assuming 50?)

[/ QUOTE ]



make sure to check how many are buying and selling. if it shows that people are bidding, and there are some of whatever it is that you are selling, you can be sure that they are not bidding at the high price. try taking off %25 of whatever the high bid is and see how that goes.

I apologize for saying that about your child. I was angry and it was foolish of me to take it to that extreme. I typed it, posted it and thought, that was low so I took it off immediately.

again miss information, i never said you did. ares did, i merely told him not to. you told me not to let a 6 year old play, i told you that he is not playing, my 15 year old is and i took offence to ares using the word retarded as an isult. You were never involved. you poked your nose in and decided i had said my 6 year old was playing, and that i should expect him to come into contact with hostile behavior if i allow him to play
"hostile behavior is a thing engaged in by many denizens of CoX. In fact it can get pretty ugly in-game; I've seen it many times. ".
i was merely explaining that you need to read before attacking. my 15 year old, not my 6 year old plays the game, my 6 year old is retarded. i take offense to the word retarded being used as an attack or insult, nobody has said you called my son retarded.

thanks for playing

Hey Bad_Influence, still want to defend this guy after reading the last two pages?

Oh wait... WE drove him to this! WE the evil forum cartel MADE him call a child he doesn't even know a retard!

Pure comedy gold.

[/ QUOTE ]

Your mistake here is in thinking that because you have "Forum Cartel" under your name that I was lumping you into the same class of people whom I was talking about earlier; I already posted saying that the actual forum cartel is not comprised of every last person sporting that title; the people I am talking about tend to post as a group, think with one mind and tend to post mostly flames and insults. Plus not all of them sport that title to begin with.

Its a mindset, not everyone wearing that title due to post count.

Anyone who would allow a six-year-old child to post in these forums really OUGHT to know better; this is not a place for children.

It is true that Ares is making mistakes here. That still does not excuse the behavior of most of the people provoking him. Two wrongs do not make a right, sorry.

Perhaps the relevant thing to take home here is that it is a mistake to be too open with one's Global.

And I personally have no desire to have "Forum Cartel" floating under my name, I can tell you. If and when my post count ever reflects that, I will be asking the mods to remove it; I have no desire to be even remotely connected with the negative connotations that come to mind any time its brought up.

[/ QUOTE ]

i never once said my 6 year old posted anything, only that my son plays the game and i do not want him teaming with ares_whatever he is calling himself. my son that plays is 15.
I am tired of people using "retarded" as an insult. my 6 yr old is smarter than many of the morons on this board, and to lump him in with whomever you (or ares) thinks is "retarded" is an insult in and of itself. look for a differnet adjective to describe people, calling someone ******* becasue they disagree with you is an insult to those who are.

[/ QUOTE ]

Hi. I never called your kid "retarded." I never called him - or you - anything whatever, at any time. Let's stick to the facts here before you go off on a tangent.

And I'll go further: CoX is rated for teens and up.

If you allow your child - mentally impaired or not - to either post on these boards OR engage in actual gameplay, he or she is most likely eventually going to see something you'd just as soon they hadn't seen. In case you have not gotten the message in this thread [if nowhere else...and heaven knows the places you could glean this info from are literally legion], hostile behavior is a thing engaged in by many denizens of CoX. In fact it can get pretty ugly in-game; I've seen it many times.

I would not let any child of mine in the game unless I was teamed with them at all times, not to mention I'd keep them off of these forums. If you're doing that, good for you.

Now, you can keep flaming me for no reason, or you can own up to the fact that not everyone acts like an angel all the time, and you have little control over that; that's your decision. But I can tell you, going off on ME over something somebody else said is not gonna cut any ice with me.

I'm not having a war with you over someone else's insult. Have the nicest of all possible days.

[/ QUOTE ]

learn to read, my 6 year old is retarded, not my 15 year old. my 15 year old plays the game, and i wanted to make sure that he does not team with ares_???. ares??? decides to call my son retarded. i let him know that i am offended, not at the term retarded, but using it as an insult. why you would spend your time telling me to stop telling you to stop telling me my son is retarded, instead of letting ares know that is not acceptable is beyond me.

I play on Freedom Server and it seems like this game is scrambled all over the place. Every level is in every zone, normal mish teams are scarce, AE farms are terrible at best, I play siren's call and it used to be booming all day every day. RV is okay. It seems harder to find a team, and pvp is not nearly as populated as it once was.

Basically:

I feel that it is somewhat harder to find a team now than it was four months ago.

I feel that the PvP population has diminished.
